I have a small system I made for playing Trivia. It consists of 3 momentary contact switches and some relays. Three players play at the same time much like Jeopardy. Each person has a switch. When a player know the answer to the question he/she presses their switch and illuminates a light in front of them. I have the circuit wired so that the other players are "locked out" until the circuit gets reset.
What I would like to do is have a circuit that would allow the "lock out" but remember the sequence in which the switches were pressed.
Example: If player 1 presses their switch first, player 2 presses their switch second, and player 3 presses their switch third I would like to see a light illuminated for player 1. If player 1 gave a wrong answer to the question I would like to press a reset, turn off the light for player 1 and then have the circuit automatically illuminate a light for the next player in the sequence. In this example it would be for player 2. After the completion of a round the circuit would need to be reset for another question.
I hope this makes some sense. Suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
