iamshack Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I won't even bother. I am fairly well-educated, and I am still horrible at that game. My brain just doesn't seem to want to work well with the show's format... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daa84 Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 my roomate in college took the regular adult one (not the college one) and did well enough to get called to compete in person. apparently the live competition is more than just how well you do, but is also about your personality .....anyways he ended up making it and was on the show....he took second, lost by about 100 bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I know a guy who was on the show. He lost on the final Jeopardy question. I'm really good at the show, but I'd never see myself getting past the live audition because they base it on more than just how well you do. I'll try anyway.

Soxbadger Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) If I remember Ill definitely try. Id rather make it on Are You Smarter Than A 5th grader. That show is an easy $500k, just dont get greedy and go for the $1mil, those questions are impossible. Even Ken Jennings missed.

JPN366 Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I would, but I may be at the hospital with a childbirth thing the night of the test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take the test instead of going to the birth, I guarantee you get on the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I got 100% on the Jeopardy tryout. Said I was too smart. I got 100% on the Millionaire tryout. Said I was too smart. I got 100% on the 5th grader tryout. Obviously. I got 100% on the Lets Make a Deal tryout. I don't have a funny punchline, so picture a chicken wearing a pair of sunglasses and a bra.

I know I got 18 correct and there were about 10 or so I was iffy on. But yeah that was real hard. Funny that one of the answers was Boo Radley. Hadnt thought of that character or book in years. Suprised I got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nailed every question they asked me, and of course therefore didn't get a callback for the show. Was pretty clear that people who could actually win wasn't what they wanted.
