N8theGr8 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 [b]Do [i]you[/i] have what it takes to be a Millionaire?[/b] Alright, so here are the rules. The first one to post here that wants to go will be first. In other words, first come, first serve. Here's how to play: 1) You answer questions based on the Pokemon GAME. No anime, no manga, just the mechanics of the game and the meta-game. 2) For every question you answer correctly you "win" the amount of money that the question is worth and you move on to the next question which is worth more and is harder. 3) Answer all of the questions correctly and you "win" $1,000,000! (Actually, you'll be etched into eternal glory in this post.) 4) The first question is "worth" $100, the next are worth... [color=#000000;background:#000000;' onmouseover="this.style.color='#FFFFFF'" onmouseout="this.style.color='#000000']2nd- $200 3rd- $300 4th- $500 5th- $1000 6th- $2000 7th- $4000 8th- $8000 9th-$16000 10th- $32000 11th- $64000 12th- $125000 13th- $250000 14th- $500000 15th- $1000000![/color] 5) You have 3 "Life lines" These life lines are 50/50, [s]Ask the audience[/s] Double Dip, and Phone a Friend. Here's how each of them work in this game: 50/50- I will take out 2 of the incorrect answers (there are four answers total) DOUBLE DIP- Replaced with Ask the Audience just to add a more useful life line. Basically, you can choose two answers. Combined with 50/50, you literally are automatically right! PHONE A FRIEND- You may publicly ask for ONE PERSON'S HELP with the question in this thread. I only ask for this publicly because cheating could go on in PMs. 6) Here's how I will handle cheating: -If you post the answer in this thread OR PM it to someone and they haven't used Phone a Friend, you will be banned from the game for 1 week, and I will come up with a new question for the person. -Please do not search up the answers on the internet. It ruins the fun of the game and completely destroys the entire point of it. We're going by trust here, but I know I can trust you guys. -I know this isn't [i]really[/i] cheating, but please don't ask the questions. I don't want someone getting pissed off at me because they already answered 8 of someone else's questions because I thought they were too easy. I may ask someone to host in the future, but until then, just don't do it. (Yes Doctor Octagonapus, I [i]am[/i] talking to you)) 7) You can 'Walk away' at any time. Basically, this means that you do not answer the question and you win whatever you have earned already. 8) I will figure out the questions [s]beforehand[/s] as the game is playing. Suggesting questions in the [u][b]PMs[/b][/u] is welcome. Please, nowhere else because the person who's playing might see it and find out the answer beforehand. THIS INCLUDES ACTUALLY ASKING QUESTIONS. Please, please do not ask the questions. Maybe I'll pick someone else to ask questions in the [very] near future, but until then, [b]DON'T DO IT[/b]. I will give anyone credit if they PM a good, relevant question to me. 9) Good luck and have fun! EDIT: I am NOT going to play Millionaire in the PO Client. I'm more than happy to do it here, but my Client constantly crashes, so please stop asking. The answer will always be no. EDIT 2: I'm now going to post people who have won anywhere from $250,000-$1,000,000 here, so you actually have a reason to walk away if you do. Also, I took out the checkpoints seeing as they're relatively pointless. You can only get into the "Wall/Post of Fame" if you've earned $250,000. To clarify, you MUST walk away with $250,000 or greater to get on the Wall/Post of Fame. It doesn't count if you answer a question wrong, even if it was the $1,000,000 question. HERE ARE OUR CURRENT MILLIONAIRES: 1. Bullet. Times won: 1 2. Doctor Octagonapus Times won: 1 3. Mashew Times won: 1 HERE ARE OUR CURRENT RUNNER UPS (winning $250,000 or $500,000 and walking away): ...No one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raichu Took me a minute to remember what Pokemon blocks you in DPPt, then I remembered Psyduck. If only you could catch them, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N8theGr8 Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 Correct! I actually forgot there were roadblock Pokemon in DPPt I certainly would love a Golduck on my team.

AZKnight Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Ah, the questions start to get a little tricky. But I know for a fact that Mega Punch is actually a Normal move so of course it's... C. Hammer Arm Final Answer I think Hammer Arm might be the only one of those that Hitmonchan does NOT learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N8theGr8 Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 Yes Bullet, you will go after Knight's finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZKnight Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Ooooh, this one is actually tough. Simply because I have never played the PMD series. I have however read about various aspects of the games on Bulbapedia either intentionally or while reading another article. Now I am pretty positive it is not D as I would imagine a move like Teleport would do that. I also don't think it increases your turns as I can't think of any move that would do that so it would probably be an item in the game. Now with it being between A and B...hmmm. Don't want to use a lifeline this early and I'm going to hope that certain ideas of the series are true for all the games... B. Increases your Speed The way I look at it if I get it right, score one for logically thinking it through. If I get it wrong, Bullet gets to play and maybe more people will line up to play.

N8theGr8 Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 Sorry, Knight...Speed stat doesn't exist in the dungeon games. I believe there IS an item that does this effect, but the answer was C. Sorry. :/ You DID win $1000 and were the first one to play though, so good job!

AZKnight Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Bah! Defeated by a spin-off series I have never touched. Now I want to study this so I will always remember it. *goes to Bulbapedia* Ok, Bulbapedia just made me more confused: "The user and all allies in the room will receive a speed boost for a short period of time." That...sounds like it increases Speed. Which makes me think I once read the article on Agility and subconsciously influenced my incorrect answer. Curse you Bulba for not specifying speed in a spin-off game in the past when I randomly read articles and influenced me toward defeat!
