Football Pointless. One question a day, like players who played for Liverpool and Newcastle, or Brazilians who played for Schalke. Press Kick off to see it, then give three answers with 30 seconds for each. The more obvious the answer, the fewer points it scores. Every answer gets a finish: a Tap-in for the household name, then Header, Volley, Overhead kick, and a Screamer (90 or more) for the one-season squad player.
A name that doesn't fit is a VAR check: no goal, try again while the clock runs. Run out of time and that answer scores nothing. Yesterday's winner is shown at the top, today's top five under your result.
Score 90 or more out of 300 to keep your streak. Three decent answers will do it. At the end you see the most obvious answers and the rarest ones you could have had.
At launch, rarity comes from how well known each player is: top-flight and European appearances from Transfermarkt. Once 30 people have answered a question, the score switches to what everyone actually said, so an answer nobody else gave is worth 100 on the day.
Don't open with the first name that comes into your head. Everyone else thought of him too. Think about loan players, back-up keepers and players who were at one of the clubs for a single season.
Football Pointless. Some sites call it Goalless. The aim is the same: a right answer that nobody else gives.
He has to have played for both clubs, or match the nationality, in our career data. Youth teams don't count.
That answer scores nothing and the next one starts. Leave the page mid-answer and that answer is lost; the next clock waits until you tap.
Midnight UK. One new question every day.
