Who Wants to Be A Millionaire? (Pilot) (Nighttime, ABC)

[Deleted]

Now as noted on my coming soon thread, the 15 question format will be used, so therefore, the usual money tree will be used.

A little recap of what's happening:

We'll have contestants, one by one come into the Hot Seat to try to answer 15 muitiple choice questions in order to win $1 Million.

You'll have 3 lifelines to help along the way:
50:50: This will randomly eliminate two wrong answers leaving the other wrong answer and one correct answer.
Phone-A-Friend: You can get any non player (Or user) to help you, one warning they'll only have 3 posts to help you, (No PMing.).
Ask The Audience: This is where I use the poll system, I'll give everyone the same question, the same answers (unless 50:50 is used on the same question, then two answers.) i'll give them a 48 hours to vote on which they think is the Correct answer.

You're allowed to walk away at anytime to leave with the current winnings.
Get a question wrong, you'll fall down to the nearest milestone, $1,000 is at Question 5 and $32,000 at Question 10. Give a wrong answer before you reach $1,000 and you'll get $0.

Hopefully, you'll all try your best, just need one player to sign in here so we can get started.
(Also PM me your name and where you're from.)

Hello! And Welcome to Who Wants to Be A Millionaire where just answering 15 questions correctly can earn you $1,000,000.

(Applause as Matt enters the studio and sits on the other seat.)

Welcome, Matt, tell us a little about yourself.

So do you think you got the knowedgle to win the million?

[mringgenberg]

I think so.

[Deleted]

Very well, now then the rules as everyone can remember,



Matt is 15 questions away from a million, in order to continue on the money ladder, he'll answer muitiple choice questions,
on his way up, he'll approach two milestones, $1,000 on question 5 and $32,000 on question 10, along with the top prize of $1,000,000 in case he cleared all 15.
If he gets stuck, he could use one or more of these lifelines, (50/50 is highlighted followed by a ping) 50:50, takes away two wrong answers,
(P-A-F is highlighted followed by a ping) Phone a Friend, he can get someone on the phone line to help him.
(ATA is highlighted followed by a ping) And last, Ask The Audience, which brings our studio audience into the action.

So, are you clear with the rules, Matt?

[mringgenberg]
