Flew down to Sarasota for the Passover holiday after a couple of days in New York working on a project and seeing family. Now, more family.
It was the first time I flew SONG, a new Delta division, and I became hooked on a music trivia game that was networked into the Direct TV sets in the seat backs. When we participated in answering the multiple choice trivia questions, your score was logged into the network and reported. Games played in rounds of 20 questions. Everyone was ranked and there was a winner. Once I understood how it worked, I became addicted–especially when I realized that my scores were neck and neck with a couple sitting in seats across the aisle.
I’d heard people talk about designing and implementing multiplayer games on airplanes, but this was the first I’d seen–and it was good fun.
