Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0231797A2] The invention relates to a method for verifying answers of a quiz game that are input into a quiz computer, which comprises an input keyboard (1), an OK key (8), a display (12) and a computer unit (13) that is equipped with a read-only memory unit (14) containing an operating program. Said operating program codes for a method for evaluating answers input using the input keyboard (1) during a quiz game. The operating program codes for the generation of control and/or confirmation data from input answers. The operating program codes for at least one security feature from the group consisting of: the generation of a device time initialized by the actuation of a key; the generation of a random data word upon actuation of a key, and; the combinations of the prominent security features. The security feature, in addition to the control and/or actuation data, is transmitted to a game organizer and is verified at that location. The invention also relates to a program that codes for a method of the aforementioned type and to a quiz computer for carrying out said method.
