No internet required
Scoring happens on the device. Once a game is open, losing the network does not stop the room, and a reload restores from local state rather than from a server.
The simpler way to keep score.
QBSheet keeps quiz bowl scoring fast, flexible, and out of your way, whether you’re connected or offline.
From start to finish
Built around how you actually score
From the first setup to the final result, QBSheet fits the way you already score.
Start
Start with a game.
Open a QBJ assignment, connect QBSheet to tournament control, or create a game yourself for practice, scrimmages, and tryouts. QBSheet asks for the teams, players, and scoring rules it still needs.
Score
Score the game.
The scorekeeper gets a scoresheet built around the game they started, with the setup in place before scoring begins.
Finish
Keep the finished result.
When the game is over, QBSheet keeps the result on the device. Connected games can be sent back to tournament control; any game can be downloaded as QBJ.
Made for tournament day
Less setup at the table
QBSheet asks only for what the assignment left out. A document that named the teams, the players and the rules leaves nothing for the room to re-enter.
Your format, not ours
Configure scoring and lineup rules around the tournament instead of forcing the tournament around the scoresheet. QBSheet never infers a format from the name of a rule set.
Recovery built in
Every accepted question is written to the device as it is scored, and a finished game stays there, downloadable as QBJ, for days after it was handed over.
One system
Three parts of a tournament day.
QBSheet is the scoresheet. Two other pieces sit either side of it, and each is optional until you want it.
- QBSheet
- Score each game, in a browser, connected or not. You are reading its page.
- Director
- Run the tournament from the desktop application on the tournament-control computer. About Director.
- QBLive

OPEN BY DESIGN
Your games aren't locked into QBSheet.
QBSheet uses open formats and an open protocol, so tournament data can move between the scoresheet and compatible tournament software.
- QBJ
- Portable files for assignments, games, and results. Read the QBJ documentation.
- QBTCP
- Live communication with compatible tournament-control software. Read the protocol overview.
- Open source
- QBSheet is licensed under the GNU AGPL. View the source on GitHub.
- Self-hosting
- Run your own copy on any static host. Read the self-hosting guide.
