Can you bluff your way through a trivia quiz without getting caught?

DISCONNECTED with Jaiden Animations, Ellen Rose and Hank Green · 20:26 · Video: Tom Scott · Watch at the source

In short: Tom Scott hosts a virtual trivia challenge where Jaiden Animations, Ellen Rose, and Hank Green compete. The catch is that players can provide incorrect answers, provided they can successfully deceive the others. If they fail to bluff effectively and accumulate too many errors, they face being disconnected from the game.

The format, titled Disconnected, relies on a massive virtual set to bring the remote participants together. The quiz was produced by David Bodycombe, with the technical production handled by the Labyrinth Games and Pad 26 teams.

This competition tests not just general knowledge, but the ability to manipulate perception. By allowing players to get away with wrong answers, the game shifts the focus from pure fact-retrieval to the social dynamics of deception and detection.
