What happens when every answer is found?
Clearing the first list can load one reserve question in the same round. In ranked matches, correct answers on that reserve make each following turn faster.

Sometimes a brilliant pair of players finds every answer before the round is over. When the reserve-question rule is active and a suitable unused question is available, the battle can continue with one reserve question in the same round.
In a regular turn-based match
Clearing the first list shows “Question Cleared! A fresh question is coming…”.
One suitable unused reserve question is loaded in the same round.
The player who did not submit the final answer starts the reserve question.
Only one reserve question can be used in a round.
If the rule is disabled, no suitable reserve is available, or the reserve list is also fully cleared, the round uses the normal draw result.
Faster turns on the ranked reserve question
In a standard ranked match, the first turn on the reserve question uses the regular turn length. Every newly accepted correct answer shortens the following turn until the game's minimum is reached.
A successful Joker that finds a new answer also shortens the next turn.
A wrong answer or an answer that was already found does not shorten it.
When the turn becomes shorter, the timer updates and shows a message such as TIME IS SHRINKING! with the amount removed.
This progressive reserve timing applies to standard ranked matches, not friendly matches or timed events.
In supported timed events
The same one-reserve rule can be enabled for Timed Score, No Mistakes, Gold Answers, Wrong Answer Drop, Long Answers and Time Cut.
Both players see a short synchronized transition to the fresh question.
The event clock pauses during that reveal and resumes with the exact time that was left.
The round score, personal streak and power-up usage already earned stay in place.
The rule does not replace the built-in automatic rotations of Changing Question, and First Correct Wins settles as soon as its first correct answer is accepted.
The reserve rule can be switched on gradually. If it is not active, or a safe reserve cannot be selected, the game falls back to the normal round result.
