What is Majority Rules?
Everyone answers the same prompt, and you score by matching the most popular answer. The winning move is not the best answer — it is the most predictable one.
Nobody needs specialist knowledge and nobody sits a round out, which is why it holds up at 100 players when almost nothing else does. It is the safest choice for an all-hands.

When to run Majority Rules
An all-hands with fifty, a hundred or more people
It is the only game here that genuinely improves with room size, because a bigger crowd makes the majority answer harder to predict. Nobody sits a round out and nobody waits for a turn.
A room where knowledge would exclude people
There is nothing to know. The winning move is not the cleverest answer but the most predictable one, which means the newest joiner competes on equal terms with the founder.
Back to back with Odd One Out
The two games are exact inverses, and playing them in sequence is the single most requested pairing. The room has to unlearn the strategy it just spent ten minutes building.
Majority Rules questions
Do players need an account or a download?
No. Only the host needs a Fun Friday account. Everyone else joins from any browser with a 6-character room code and a display name — no app, no install, no IT ticket.
What is the maximum number of players?
Sessions support up to 250 participants on the Enterprise plan; Pro sessions run to 25 and Starter to 10. Majority Rules is one of the games that genuinely improves with a bigger room.
How are similar answers grouped?
Answers are normalised before grouping, so casing and minor spelling differences still count as the same answer.
