Abstract
A method for an asynchronous multiplayer gameplay. The method may comprise the computer-implemented steps of: providing a computer with a social media application configured to allow a first user to be followed by one or more second users; creating a challenge by the first user using the social media application; displaying that challenge in a feed by the social media application; receiving one or more inputs from a second user in response to the challenge; calculating a score based on the input of the second user; and displaying the score of the challenge. The challenge may be a trivia game such as a music video trivia game and may further comprise a rating system and a system for gathering popularity data.
