HostMyDarts questions, answered.
What is HostMyDarts?
HostMyDarts helps a host run Quick or Classic Killer on a real dartboard. The host records the darts, and a live TV scoreboard shows the throwing order, target numbers, lives and winner.
What is the difference between Quick and Classic Killer?
Quick starts everyone as a Killer. In Classic, each player earns the selected number of marks on their own number before they can take lives. You choose the starting lives and whether a missed visit costs a life.
Does it score darts automatically?
The host records the target hit and whether it was a single, double or treble, or records a miss. HostMyDarts keeps the game state and throwing order up to date. It does not detect darts with a camera.
What does my venue need?
A dartboard and safe throwing area, a host phone, tablet or laptop, a TV or projector with a suitable browser, and an internet connection. Rehearse the setup before the first public event.
Can I correct a mistake or reuse the players?
The host can undo the last action and add or remove lives. After a completed game, start another with the same names, board numbers and rules, with lives and results reset. Pair the TV to the new four-digit code.
Does it run 501 or league matches?
The current product is for Quick and Classic Killer Darts. The rules and setup guides on this site describe those formats.
How do I request a venue trial?
Use the Darts trial enquiry link and tell Host HQ about your venue. The team can help arrange a practical first test. Sending an enquiry does not start a paid subscription.
