MightyJordan Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Did anyone else get caught out by the Jeremy Beadle question? Guilty. :p I pushed X as soon as I saw "Jeremy". I didn't realise it was a trick until I saw "Beetle" just below it. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kushan Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 So what's the questions like, brutal or have they hit a decent middle ground? As you might have guessed from the above 3 posts, occasionally they throw in the odd easy question but with a trick answer. The question in er...question was something like "Back in the 1990's, people had to look out because ______ was about?". The correct answer was Jeremy Beadle, but the answers given were something like: X) Jeremy Beetle A) Jeremy Beadle B) Jeremy Beedle So those of us who knew the answer right away but jumped the gun went straight for X =\ Other than that the questions aren't overly difficult, mostly topical stuff. There was even a question about Wii Sports, surprisingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Yeah, I really didn't expect the Wii Sports question in there. I bet the guys at Microsoft were laughing when so many people got that one wrong :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdDin8 Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I got by most questions I had no clue about with intelligent guesses so it's not that difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiB3R Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 A 20p with the date missing being worth ?50 was a cool question, wasn't expecting that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kushan Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Actually some of those coins are worth a LOT more than ?50. Like, ?300 minimum and one even went fora few thousand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Actually some of those coins are worth a LOT more than ?50. Like, ?300 minimum and one even went fora few thousand. Yeah, the live host actually said stuff about it after the question. He mentioned that one sold on eBay for ?7k! It definitely was a live host as well, because at one point, he actually mentioned the gamertags of the top 3 scorers:) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Actually some of those coins are worth a LOT more than ?50. Like, ?300 minimum and one even went fora few thousand. Nah, they are officially 'worth' ?50 a piece, according to the Royal Mint. What people are willing to pay for them is a different matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are worth 20pence according to the Royal Mint - it was some coin collecting agency/company said they would pay ?50 per coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willdev Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 N00bie question but what does prime time mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kushan Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 "Primetime" is the term Microsoft is using for this style of game. 1vs100 is just the beginning, they have a deal with the company that owns the show (is it Endemol or something?) and plan to roll out other shows over the next few years. You'll see things like Deal or No Deal and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MightyJordan Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Lol, how come? Right, my experience from last night: I played the prize show earlier, and 10% of the mob didn't know the title for the head of our government! There were also a few people who didn't know "which chocolate bar advertises having a glass and a half of milk in it"; the choices were "Dairy Orange Juice", "Dairy Milk", and "Dairy Cola". F***ing idiots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F***ing idiots! Haha yeah i remember those questions, like browno said though they are proberly 8-12 year olds playing which are absolute idiots lol. But wait, you only get selected for the mob if you are 18 right? because a child account on live will automatically set your privacy to private on 1 vs 100? and an adult account is classed 18+ But i guess 99% of the 8-12 year olds faked there dob lol. But im looking forward to the next 1 vs 100 live show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they let you play regardless of your age, but you only win the prizes if you're 18 or over, or if you're under 18 and the account has a parent's account tied to it as well.
