I'm hoping the Xl2bb mini sheet below mostly explains things, because trying to fully explain what I'm doing would be a challenge for me!
For Q1, all who guessed "RED" (Bart, Moe, Lisa) should each get 4 points. All who guessed "ORANGE" (Lisa, Homer) should get 6. Yellow (Homer) gets 12, etc.
On Q2, Bart and Grandpa get 6, Moe 0, Homer 12, etc.
I've got all that figured, but I'm stuck on how to automatically add up how many points total that each player gets for the 5 questions.
The number of players may change each time (up to 12) and the numbers of correct answers for each question will also change for each question (up to 20 or so)
I hope this makes sense, and thanks ahead of time for any suggestions.

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Don't have the add-in installed, but what about this setup, have your points at the left and a list of correct answers to the right.
Formula:
D3: =IFERROR(MATCH(C3,$I$2:$K$2,0),0) -> checks if the answer is in the answer list, otherwise returns a 0
E3: =COUNTIF($C$3:$C$8,C3) -> checks how many times that answer was given
G3: =IF(D3>0,COUNTA($B$3:$B$8)/E3,0) -> if the answer was correct (greater than 0), calculate points

After that it should be easy to add up the scores per question...
