(I am going to mingle simple answers with hard answers)

Questions are broken down in the following categories:

Humanities

Bible

Book of Mormon

Church history
Odds and ends
Personalities

Each team is given an empty Standard ( Pole to attach the banners or strips of colored cloth to)

For each successful answer you get a colored banner matching the category. When the 1st team or person collects all colors, everyone else gets to choose the category that team or person has to answer correctly if they are to win. If that person doesn’t answer correctly the 1st time the play continues as before around the teams, each time the team with all colors has to answer the category chosen for him. The game ends when a correct answer is given.
