If the mods will let you and it is not difficult, maybe add a private topic where those that are watching can answer and cast aspersions on those who don't get the right answer.

Really enjoyed myself and will definitely play another round. Thank you for running this game!

Only improve I can think of is maybe change around the first round a bit. Having easier questions with a lower number of potential answers makes the "out-guess your opponents" portion more prominent and makes the game more nerve-wracking and second-guessing for the player. Which fits your theme better, I think.

And maybe for the second round, I noticed that people passed instead of answering and I feel like there could be a sort of game mechanic there. Like if your wrong guess is the same as another person's wrong guess, you could have a side bonus question for a chance to win or lose.. (Some workshopping could be done here)

Also, the champion should get some sort of ridiculously garish belt that they have to defend in the next round.

Vanity or vainglory was historically one of the sins but Pope Gregory absorbed it into Pride as he found them redundant.

We see a shared answer already in game 2, putting Xalxe and current reigning champion Kublai Khan on an early backfoot.

Helium

Radon

The Noble Gases comprise group 18 on the periodic table and the most stable elements, due to having the maximum number of electrons on their outer shell.

You wait ages for a Xenon to come and then 3 come along at once, we see just one player pick up points for the first time in round 1, leaving Xalxe as our sole straggler. Sometimes the more obvious answers are better in round 1, will we see players start to revert to more basic answers?
