Kicking myself at some of the ones I missed, but don't think I'm ever getting 14 more.
Yeah, I submitted early knowing that I was forgetting some super obvious ones but I just wanted to get something in in case I didn't have time later. I tried to resubmit this morning but stuck was having none of it, which is fair enough. But I wouldn't have beaten domer anyway. I think I got it to 50. I used to know that list much better than I do now.

Thanks, promise you I wasn't cheating. I just swear there isn't a question that could hit me harder. Pretty sure I would make a bad 1.

Just to be sure, I contacted internet personality Total Biscuit. He said you're ok, so I'll go with that

I was expecting this question to eliminate at least 50% of Americans.

I don't think this question will eliminate anybody (except those who don't send in answers).

On the actual TV show, this question might be good enough to eliminate 5 to 10 people out of 100, but this forum is going to skew pretty heavily in favor of people good at trivia.

Game structure question

Stuck, are there lifelines like in the show? (Poll the mob, etc.)

  • Each round, I will ask a multiple choice trivia question. I will post the question in the Game Thread and PM it to all players. Every member of the mob and The One will pm me their choice within 24 hours of the question being posed in the Game Thread (not the PM). I will then post The One's answer in the thread, along with the correct answer. Any members of the Mob who get the question wrong are eliminated. For every 5 mob members eliminated, the bank amount goes up until it reaches 1 million. (See Below) The One can stop at any time before a question is asked, taking home all money in the bank.
  • If The One answers a question incorrectly, the remaining Mob members split the prize money evenly.
  • When a round ends, there will be another qualifying question among those left in the mob to determine the next One. We'll keep playing until someone has earned 1 million.
  • There will not be any helps or lifelines like in the shows due to clerical requirements

^ is your answer

but in future games I might add them in. Just want to make sure the game flows smoothly first, get all my excelulators going to do all the scoring for me etc.

What happens when domer gives an incorrect answer and there are 25 mob members left? They get $2,000 each, but unless already eliminated players rejoins the game I don't see how the One can earn more than another $25,000 when he eliminates the remaining 24 players. Unless he keeps building on what domer had, in which case it doesn't really matter if you're the One*, it's last man standing wins. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just trying to understand the rules.

*unless the One wants to cash in some POG$ and finish at best in second place, I guess

For now I'm just working under the assumption that it's good to give correct answers and that I'll be eliminated before I have to worry about anything else... which based on what I've seen in other trivia games on POG is a safe assumption.

Not sure I understand, but if Domer is eliminated and there are 25 surviving mobbers, they each get $2,000. Then those 25 participate in the next Qualifier, a new One is chosen and a new round is started at 1 v 50, domer now being part of the mob.

So the One wants to answer questions correctly non-stop, ideally beating everyone and winning $1,000,000.

The Mob also want to answer questions correctly non stop and outlast the One. Ideally if you're Mob, you want to get down to 1v1 with the One and outlast him to win $500,000

Aha, I didn't get that eliminated players would be back into the game.
