Lave Laar:
I will look into beeing able to assign a different selection key.

NoBonus:
I like the selections disappearing as points decrease more than wrong selections disappearing.

I agree... but I'm not sure why it's hard to do both.

You would just remove the "wrong" choice and re-start the music.  Set a flag that indicates the number of "wrong" choices that have been made (n) and skip the next n "auto-disappears" as the timer counts down.  As you cross the "normal" time for a choice to go away, look at the value of n.  If it's 0, proceed as now, removing one choice.  If n >0, decrement n by one, and SKIP removing a choice.

I obviously haven't seen the code being used, but the algorithm is straight forward.

Am I missing something here?

Also, I saw no mention in Lave's post above about allowing multi -player to select the NUMBER of players (2,3 or 4).

My wife and I have been playing this a lot;  if we both miss, we have to wait out the rest of the count-down.  If there was an ability to select 2 player mode (or 3 player mode), the round could end once all players guessed incorrectly.
