Bible Challenges troubleshooting
Frequent mid-game situations and their immediate fix: code not found, nickname taken, latecomer, room to close.
2026-07-13
Everything that can surprise you mid-game, with a one-line fix.
Player side
- "No game for this code": the game is over, or the host clicked "Replay" (each round has a NEW code). Scan the QR currently projected.
- "This nickname is already taken": someone else picked it in THIS game. Add an initial. (If it was you after a reload, you get your place back automatically.)
- Reloaded page / locked screen mid-game: rescan the QR - your place, nickname and points are kept.
- Arrived after the start: join anyway, you play from the next question (starting at 0 points).
- No sound: tap the speaker icon at the top - some phones require a gesture before allowing sound.
Host side
- Cut a running game: "End now" button next to "Next question" - immediate podium with current scores.
- Cancel a room never started: "Close the room" button in the lobby - the code is released.
- Replay with the same group: "Replay" on the podium creates a new round, reshuffled questions, NEW code to rescan.
- A player cannot scan: give them the address shown on screen (sanctumel.com/j) and the 6-digit code to type.
- The game must last several days (week-long contest): create it in Open mode - everyone plays when they want, the ranking builds up over time.
