Um, Actually

A game of nerdy corrections, based on the CollegeHumor game show. Guests on the show have included Matt Mercer (who managed to make corrections that weren't even part of the question), so we know we're in good tabletop stead, though the game covers a plethora of nerdy topics. At its simplest, it's a game where there are errors in the questions and you'll need to identify those to gain points.
