    Default General Gaming Millionaire!

    This is an idea that I've had for quite a while. I figured now would be the best time to make it.
    Anyways, I'm not sure if anyone remembers the Final Fantasy and Kingdom hearts millionaires that I started on here(Which, due to my immaturity and such, died to death), but this will be much like those, just with many games from many different series.
    I know that many people would not have played all the games that I might question about, however, so I came up with a great idea! I will list out a bunch of games that I feel I am strong enough in to ask questions about, and the contestant will pick as many games as they'd like out of that list. Now, I'm normally a pretty modest guy, but when I thought of this, I thought "smurf yes! This idea is awesome, I want the world to know!". Anyways, here are the rules and such:

    1. Post when there is no one in the hotseat and the first person to post will be in the hotseat.

    2. When you post to enter the hotseat, pick from the available judges first, then pick the games from that judge's list that you would like to be quizzed on.

    3. When you enter the hotseat, I will ask you multiple choice questions(with 4 possible choices, 1 being correct) from the games that you have selected. These questions will start out almost laughably easy, and gradually increase in difficulty until you reach question 15. Each question answered correctly will be worth a certain amount of points, just like in the game show "Who wants to be a Millionaire".

    4. When a player is in the hotseat, I ask that you keep posting to a minimum, and please, please, PLEASE do not answer questions out of turn. It truly ruins this game, and makes it unfair for everyone else. I'm not asking you to completely stop posting when a player is in the hotseat, but I do ask that you do not be excessive.

    5. You will only be given 24 hours to answer each question. Please only enter if you think you can come on here once a day. If you take over 24 hours to answer yer question, you will be kicked from the hotseat. If you know for a fact that you will not make it back in 24 hours, you may freeze where you are at without losing yer points if, and only if, you tell me when answering the current question, or in the time before I have given you yer new question. yer game will then be put on hold until the next player is finished, and you may resume from right where you left off.

    6. Here is the points table, it is just like the Regis Philbin hosted tv show

    Question 1: 100
    Question 2: 200
    Question 3: 300
    Question 4: 500
    Question 5: 1000
    Question 6: 2000
    Question 7: 4000
    Question 8: 8000
    Question 9: 16000
    Question 10: 32000
    Question 11: 64000
    Question 12: 125000
    Question 13: 250000
    Question 14: 500000
    Question 15: 1000000

    Like in the show, if you answer incorrectly you will be brought back down to yer last milestone, or 0, and kicked from the hotseat. The milestones are at 1000 and 32000. When/if you answer the 1000000 point question correctly, you will be given yer points and will be out of the hotseat, with yer score recorded. You can also, at any time, choose to walk away from yer question, and you will keep the points you have earned. You may then choose to play again after another player has already been in the hotseat. If this game becomes popular enough, the points system as a ranking system could turn out to be very, very fun and competitive.

    7. When you are kicked from the hotseat, either by correctly answering the 1000000 point question, by incorrectly answering any question, or by taking too long to answer, you will have to wait for at least 1 player to enter and leave the hotseat before you can enter again.

    8. Although I have no way to enforce this rule, I wish that, when you play this game, you do not use strategy guides or the internet to help you. You may, however, use the actual game to assist you in answering yer question.

    9. Like the TV show, you will have 3 lifelines: Phone/PM a friend, Ask the Audience, and 50/50, and you will also have New Question, all from the start. When you decide to use a lifeline, I will be nice enough to reset yer 24 hours from when I return, except for PM a Friend, which gives you 36 hours.

    In PM a friend, you will be able to ask for 1 specific person's help. You will tell me the name of this person, and I will PM them, and they will have until yer question is over to post the answer they think is correct in the thread, or tell you that they do not know. Anyone(except me, of course XD) who is willing may be selected for PM a friend. Please note that you will still have to come and post to tell me yer answer, even if yer lifeline friend has answered.

    In Ask the Audience, you will allow the audience to give you the answer that they think is correct. Anyone that sees the thread and wishes to give you their answer may do so, and you may listen to the audience and answer with them or against them or whatever you wish.

    In 50/50, I will eliminate 2 of the 4 possible answers, leaving 1 correct and 1 incorrect.

    In New Question, I will give you a totally new question from a randomly selected game from yer list(it may possible be the same game twice).

    10. Unlike in the show, you do not have to say Final Answer. If you answer, but decide to change yer answer before I come back, you are completely free to.When I come back, whichever answer you have most recently chosen will be the one I accept.

    11. After you have made it to 1000 your first time, you can start from 1000 on any other time you play. This checkpoint doesn't apply to any other question, only 1000.

    I believe that is all the rules that I have to say, if I think of any more I will add them to this post. Now, for the Judge's and their game lists...

    You can choose as many games from the list that you want, if you wish, and you can have questions from many different games. I wasn't too clear on that, looking back XD

    Anyways, I'll make your first question from Chrono Trigger. If you wish to add more games to the list, you can do so when you answer.

    For 100...

    A) Dog
    B) Cat
    C) Frog
    D) Snake

    I've missed this game FF9 Millionaire was the first thread I posted in on EoFF! The FFs are the only games I'd be able to answer for though.

    Thinking about this more I may have messed up. I was focused on the word 'attack' and Cure not being an attack I thought it was the obvious answer. But I recall now that Fira was still called 'Fire 2' in the English translation of the game so maybe the question was one of semantics (but I consider Fira and Fire 2 the same spell with the difference only being translation). If the question was 'Which of these magic spells is not used in the game?' or 'Which of these materia are not in the game?' then I would have said D) Fira no doubt.

    I'm sorry, I should have been more clear. I've just always said attack instead of spells.

    I'm still going to count you as correct, because I realized I forgot a rule. The new rule is...

    10. Unlike in the show, you do not have to say Final Answer. If you answer, but decide to change your answer before I come back, you are completely free to. When I come back, whichever answer you have most recently chosen will be the one I accept.

    So now, for 500, from Kingdom Hearts

    Which of these Keyblades are not in this game?

    A) Kingdom Key
    B) Olympia
    C) Dreamweaver
    D) Three Wishes

    Well, I'm already stumped, because I don't really remember the names of the keyblades in the game. I think the answer is Dreamweaver but I don't remember if the Olympus keyblade is actually called Olympia.

    On the other hand, I cannot think of which world the Dreamweaver keyblade would come from. It sounds like it would come from the Sleeping Beauty world but that does not appear until KH: BBS.

    In the end, I cannot risk it. So I will take a 50:50 lifeline.

    Using my super top secret coin flipping technique, you are now left with...

    Which of these Keyblades are not in this game?

    A) Kingdom Key
    C) Dreamweaver

    You now have the Ask the Audience, PM a Friend, and New Question lifelines left.
