Selecting a Category
In each CrossWire round, you must play
three out of the four categories, each of
which are drawn from one of fifteen fields
of knowledge. Each field of knowledge is
indicated by an abbreviation (see “Fields
of Knowledge” for the abbreviation list).
In the following example, you will select
the
Sidekicks
category (the field of
knowledge abbreviation
POP
stands for
Pop Culture).

➤ 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.
