Hybrid live trivia and party game that runs on closinggame.net with in‑room red/green cards and online registration, prizes (LWN subscriptions and gift cards), and a rock‑paper‑scissors finale. Questions hit kernel history and space facts like 106,000 Linux instances in space, Mars landings counted as "more than 14", and legal and real‑time kernel updates including preempt_rt not merged. Host warns of server instability and last‑minute Python2→3 uwsgi fixes so online play can be flaky.
