Is it possible to add a feature that highlights the correct answer for the participant whose name is indicated in the question text, and after receiving the answers, add the sum of all the points awarded to other participants to that participant?

Hi, thank you for sharing your idea with us.

This sounds like an interesting use case. To make sure we fully understand your request, could you please provide a bit more detail about how you envision this working?

For example:

  • How would the “secret task” be presented to a specific participant?
  • Should only that participant see the correct answer, or should the answer simply be marked as correct if they select it?
  • When you mention adding the points awarded to other participants to that participant, could you clarify how the scoring should work in practice?

A concrete example or sample scenario would be especially helpful. That will allow us to better understand your needs and share your suggestions accurately with our product team.

The correct answer must be chosen randomly. For example, in the table, a special symbol can be used instead of the correct answer number. This choice will be shown to one participant, and their answer will no longer be counted. They will receive more points if other participants answer correctly, or a small deduction will be made if there are no correct answers. The option where one participant determines the correct answer is also interesting and can be implemented using another special symbol instead of the correct answer number. The scoring for this option is similar.

Example Scenario I. “What state does Ben indicate?” Answer 2 is randomly selected and shown to Ben so he knows what he’s supposed to do. The other three participants received scores of 0, 3, and 5 for their answers. Ben received 8 points for completing the task.

Sample scenario II. “What state does Ben indicate?” Ben selected answer 1, which is considered correct. The other three participants scored 0, 0, and 0 for their answers. Ben received a -2 point penalty for completing the task.

The ability to assign tasks to one, two, or three participants is also useful. This allows for more complex group collaboration tasks.

Hi, thank you for following up, and thank you again for taking the time to explain your idea in detail.

At the moment, there is no update regarding this feature request. While we appreciate the creativity of the concept, we prioritize our development efforts based on a combination of factors, including the number of users who would benefit from a feature, its impact, and alignment with our product roadmap.

Currently, our team is focused on other improvements and features that serve a broader range of use cases, so we do not have plans to implement this functionality in the near future.

That said, we have documented your suggestion and will keep it on record for future consideration. We genuinely appreciate users sharing innovative ideas, as they help us better understand different ways people would like to use AhaSlides.
