Typerush
Ask a categorical question and let your audience type as many answers as they can as quickly as possible. Typerush is perfect for fast-recall challenges like "Name all US states" or "List all Premier League teams".
Setup

- Insert a question into the Title field.
- Insert all correct answers to your question. Each answer can have multiple variants (to account for typos or different spelling). Add variants by hitting enter after each variant. Add as many answers as you want by clicking on Add an answer.
- Add hints for each answer, to make it easier for your audience.

You can hide hints if you do not want to show them. Go to the options icon on the right of Answer Content and disable Show hints.
Show row numbers

Show answer media
Answer media can be shown in addition to hints, or replacing them entirely. Go to the options icon on the right of Answer Content and enable Show answer media.
Ignore space and not case-sensitive
Allow variants of the correct answer with wrong spacing and capitalization. Go to the options icon on the right of Answer Content and enable Not case-sensitive and/or Ignore space.
Scoring type
Award points per right answer or only if the whole block was solved. Go to the options icon on the right of Answer Content and change Scoring type to Question (score for the whole block) or Answer (score per individual answer).
Reveal all answers after block timer expires or user gives up
It is recommended to use a block timer on Typerush blocks to add an extra level of engagement. Your audience can choose to give up if they feel they have answered as much as they could. You can choose to show unsolved answers to your audience once the timer expires or they give up.
