OK, it's time for the first night of the return of Classic Millionaire, and i need some willing contestants. We're going to have 3 contestants for our first show, so who wants to step up to the hot seat? First come, first serve basis.

I'll try this out.

[Deleted]

Okay, that's one. Now i need two more. It's okay if i have just 2. (Note: questions will be from my home version of Millionaire from Pressman. I can't make up questions and answers on the fly. I'm not *that* talented.)

[mringgenberg]

I'll try.

[Deleted]

We have 2 contestants. Looking for a third contender.

[Deleted]

One other note i must mention: this is a weekly game. After a game is complete, we start another one week after that. ABC made a huge mistake of overexposing it. It's why it was cancelled after 3 seasons.

[Deleted]

15 Minutes until showtime. Last call for one vacant spot.

[Deleted]

BTW, i can't do graphics very well, so when the money tree appears, it will be in text format, and i also don't have any music cues. Please forgive me.

[Deleted]

Well, it looks like nobody else wants to play, so contestants, please stand by.

[Deleted]

(Main theme plays, classic Millionaire logo fades in onscreen)
(Audience applauds as first contestant and i walk onstage and take our places center stage)

Me: thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. Good evening and welcome to the return of Classic Millionaire. I've decided to bring back the classic format and classic lifelines. I think you'll enjoy it. And now, say hello to our first contestant, koopakid17!

(Audience applauds)

Welcome to the show, and please tell us a little about yourself.

[koopakid17]

My name is Kevin or Koopa if you prefer. I'm an accountant from Long Island, New York. When I'm not doing taxes, I like video games, game shows, reading and writing fanfics.

[Deleted]

Sounds like a lot of fun, and seeing that you're an accountant, you must know the value of a dollar, and you have a chance to win a million of 'em tonight. Now, should i explain the rules for you or would you like to jump right in?
