About this game
Ranking is the live drag-to-order poll: audiences rank a list of items from most to least important on their phone; the aggregated group ranking shows the room's collective priority. It is the slide format for "we all agree these are the options, now let us agree on the order".
How Ranking works
Ranking is a single unscored slide that captures ordered preferences from every phone in the room:
- List the items to rank: features, initiatives, values, priorities, or any set.
- Share the join code; every audience member drags to order the list on their phone.
- The presenter view aggregates every submission into a single group ranking.
- Reveal the top of the list: the item the room cares about most, backed by everyone's vote.
Best for
Ranking fits any decision where "which comes first?" is the actual question:
- Product managers: feature prioritisation, roadmap sequencing, and quarterly-goal ranking.
- Team leads: OKR ranking, value-hierarchy exercises, and quarterly-focus decisions.
- HR & culture teams: team-values ranking, benefits-prioritisation surveys, culture-workshop input.
- Facilitators: workshop synthesis rounds where the goal is a single ranked list.
Why teams love Ranking
Ranking beats a plain vote whenever the answer is not "which one" but "in what order":
- Full ordering: captures the full priority stack, not just the winner.
- Aggregated group view: the room-level ranking emerges from every individual submission.
- Anonymous by default: honest rankings, especially on sensitive priority decisions.
- Live update: the aggregated ranking recalculates as new submissions come in.
Free to run and the sharpest way to turn a group priority debate into a ranked shortlist.
