Participatory things?

I don't know where this would go -- maybe in games? Maybe it needs a new category?

Quiz Game -- The app called QuizUp allows you to answer questions and play against people in real time.  It's like Trivial Pursuit (remember that?) without the board pieces.  What about a live quiz with geeky categories? Necon (a horror convention in Rhode Island) often has a horror-themed quiz with Valuable Prizes. I'm sure I attended a quiz at another con, though I can't remember which one.

oh, wow, this could be fun. Could be classic sci fi catagory and we will see how many people know what year Dr. Who started and who has appeared in seven different police procedurals as the same character.

Game shows have been very successful at other cons I have attended/worked.
