Guys, it's Jeopardy. I gave a link and even typed up a wall of text to describe the rules.

The rules are pretty simple, though. To start off, someone will pick a point value from the board. The larger the point (dollar) value the harder the question will typically be. From that point forward, all contestants will have 24 hours from the time that I post the actual clue to answer it or until the next time I log on, whichever is longer. You can answer the question whenever you'd like, of course, but that's the deadline. This is to keep things moving so progress isn't as slow as the character tournament. The fact that I'm going out of town after this week isn't going to help me, but I'll try to find a way around that.


All contestants. Everyone. It's just like Jeopardy, which means you answer just like Jeopardy (i.e. "Who is/what is/where is ____?").

And Wrighty, "What is Final Fantasy?" I'm guessing? As in Final Fantasy I? No.

Corrupt is right. $400 goes to him. Wrighty and CD are incorrect, and lose $400.

Corrupt also gets to choose the next question.

I've been talking it over with some staff (or just Chris), and I was wondering if you guys would prefer if you wouldn't get penalized for wrong answers, and just have no points given. It wouldn't really stick to the Jeopardy theme, but at the same time I feel like people aren't replying because they're scared of losing more points.

Talk to me.

I think if you get a question wrong you should only lose half of what that question was worth, and you can't go into negatives.

e.g.
Person A: Incorrect Answer to a $200 dollar question = -$100.
Person A had $200 so he goes down to $100.

Person B: Incorrect Answer to a $1000 dollar question = -$500.
Person B had $400 so he goes down to $0 (instead of -$100).

Person C: Correct Answer to a $500 dollar question = +$500.
Person C had $1600 so he goes up to $2100.

Current question:

What is Revolution?

That's a pretty good idea, actually. I'll take that into consideration. Meanwhile, you guys all have some time to give me feedback and I'll change the game slightly when I get back.

Also, you're right Corrupt, and that's $200 towards your score. You can pick the next question, but I won't be around to give it until next week.
