Questions
Question desk
Ask #1
Seekers send built-in questions from here. Hiders receive the pending question on their page and send the answer back from the same room state.
No question is pending. Seekers can send the next one.
The pending question appears here for the hider. Text answers are computed by the server; photo answers are uploaded here and then sent to the seekers.
No pending question is waiting for the hider.
Hand
Hider deck
Hidden
Hand state is private to the hider. Questions now award server-dealt draw piles here, and the hider chooses which revealed cards to keep.
Deck will populate as the server deals cards.
Hidden from seekers. Join as the hider to manage the private hand, reward draws, hiding zone, and score bonus state.
