Selecting a Category

Fields of Knowledge

Here is a list of the fields of knowledge: Art (ART), Commerce (COM), General Knowledge (GEN), Geography (GEO), History (HIST), Language (LANG), Lit- erature (LIT), Movies (MOV), Music (MUS), Nature (NAT), Pop Culture (POP), Science (SCI), Sports (SPTS), Television (TV), and Theatre (THTR).

Save Your Best for Last

The value of correct matches increases for each category that you play in the CrossWire Round (see “Scoring in the CrossWire Round” for more detail). So it is a good idea to save your best category for last.

Remember, you only have to play three of the four categories, so you can skip the most difficult one.
