Talking How do you get selected for Hasbro games

How do you get selected to play the Hasbro game shows? Do they select several people and then narrow it down to a few? What games have they had on the Conquest? Has anyone seen the Trivia pursuit game?

you have to go crazy (jumping, screaming, etc) and if you are selected you are given a trivia question to answer. If you get the answer right, you go up on stage, if you get it wrong, you sit down.

The games they have are simon, yahtzee bowling, operation skee-ball and connect 4 basketball. I believe all the games are on the ships with the Hasbro and 2 are played each night they have the show.

Yea but they want people with enthusiasm so they have a good show. I watched a couple on our last cruise and it was fun. One young boy got picked and kind of answered the question right and still got to go up on stage. The trivial pursuit game is one of the games used to pick contestants out to go on stage. Of course they are real simple questions.

When I sailed the Breeze, they played Scattergories in order to pick the contestants. Butch was walking in the crowd, not necessarily choosing the people that were jumping and screaming.

on our Breeze Cruise my Daughter and her friend made up a sign "we love you Butch..."..when he asked the question "Name something in an Airport that starts with P"...Rachel stood up jumping and answered "Pilot.!"...that was answered earlier but he was nice enough for her to give a second answer that we gave her and she got on stage....
