Going dead is the process of a tossup not being answered correctly by any eligible player (either due to all attempts being incorrect or no attempts being made). A dead tossup is one that is not converted.

A question set is probably overly difficult if it regularly features multiple dead tossups per game when played by its target audience (i.e. it has low conversion statistics).
