BUMP!!! And for a very good reason, because... I've never seen worse, more claustrophobic, uglier set of ANY of the worldwide versions of WWTBAM than THIS from Georgia: The first thing that came to my mind is that it looks like they had released a Millionaire "Play Set". It's tiny! The contestants in the FFF chairs are practically touching... |

If this is Millionaire, I would love to see their Deal or No Deal set.
The cases wouldn't be able to open!

I couldn't agree more Kimarough! To be honest this Georgian Set is an absolute joke... International versions of the show represent the reputation of the Millionaire Brand, as a viewer I would expect a good relationship similar to the UK and US Formats, instead of this makeshift set that looks like it was made in a backroom of a warehouse. FFF could easily involve some cheating as they are that close together and a tiny studio really doesn't increase the atmosphere at all...  # Why are these sets so cheap and rubbish? |

Can't believe no one thought of Argentina. Their set isn't even close to the original!

Not going to lie, Argentina's set looks AWESOME! Far from the original indeed, but it is cool in it's own way. This would have to be the best creativity of a local set designer that I've seen.

Well look at the computers in FFF. Not LCD at all.

The Argentinian set does indeed look very futuristic, and a fantastic example of good sets that have branched out from the sample design. However in some ways I do fear that it just isn't millionaire, the raised floor, the seperated walls, the non-LCD screens that are massive, the list goes on! However it clearly is a great design, but I am just not used to that!  |

In that same video, does anyone else see the edge of a lifeline poking out the side when the money tree comes up?

Yes, I did, maybe they were going to include a fourth lifeline, but changed their minds?

I will be honest, I do not think that the Nigerian Set changes are very effective. For example the collums and stairs changing colour. They could have made this alot more exciting using some sort of progression from the start to the end using colours, but instead it is very random. Also the new TV screen is pointless and actually gives me a headache, the fact that the logo doesn't stop flying in and spinning around. The UK version is alot better because it makes use of the screen. It displays the clock ticking as well as the money tree and lifelines. At least the old US version displayed the name of the lifelines and the money amount won... On regards to the graphics in general they really are not very professional. The fact that they didn't proofread the money tree is just absurd! |

jadenmillionaire: Yes, I suppose that you are right about the TV screen and the lights. Nigeria's version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire has never had any set elements like these; now that it does, they are abusing it. What I mean by that is, they don't know how to use it, just constantly tinkering with the new props without a continuous pattern in them. I, to be honest, have noticed these things myself, but I was just too excited about the studio update to say anything about its ineffectiveness. jadenmillionaire, millionaireloveruk, Kimarough: It is evident that Nigeria's graphics are very poor in quality, despite the fact that they are the same ones being used/formerly used by Ghana, Uganda, Australia, Philippines, New Zealand, Afghanistan... (Maybe Nigeria should have kept the classic graphics!) You can often see that there will be the side of a lifeline poking out. Probably not a fourth lifeline, rather a glitch in the graphics that they probably cannot or will not fix. Almost every time it appears (for the blue international 2007 graphics), the "P" in "total prize money" has a glitch of some sort as well. I have only seen the graphic not doing this twice. 1.bp.blogspot.com/-HQqgANjw_hQ/U7kNOAzAJZI/AAAAAAADHdM/8v9N7ok_RDc/s1600/5.png1.bp.blogspot.com/-Q-L7jJ2_8SM/U7kNOemmjgI/AAAAAAADHdQ/8tYMk1RR68c/s1600/6.jpgDuring a contestant introduction, I believe I once saw a contestant's name was misspelled as "Jerrry" (yes, I meant to type three Rs). I am actually surprised as to how Nigeria was able to afford the studio updates. You would think most of Africa's money would be going towards fighting ebola. But I may be wrong; if so, please correct me. |

Actually I am very surprised that Ebola outbreak does no longer exist in Nigeria... This article from October states "Nigeria has been declared officially free of Ebola after six weeks with no new cases, the World Health Organization (WHO) says." This is actually quite reasonable as Nigeria in most areas is a better place that the likes of Sierra Leone... Also the article below says that "European countries have committed more than 500m euros (£400m; $600m) but the UK is pressing to double that amount." They are going to be very careful to make sure the money goes to a worthy cause to help people in Poverty as a result of the terrible circumstances. So Millionaire can spend their money on studio upgrades!! www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-29685127Also on regards to the "P" in Total Prize Money's banner, I have noticed that alot but quite frankly thought that it will have been raised on the forum before. Obviously there were some problems with the production of the International Graphics. Question - Are there any other countries with these graphics experiencing similar issues? |

First of all, I am very glad that ebola doesn't exist on Nigeria anymore. Second, I don't think any other countries have graphic issues like this. The only graphic errors I've ever seen are in: Germany, with the hilarious question box glitch in the early-mid 2000s. America's Super Millionaire: the box that displays how much the question is worth during Bob-O's game. regisfan.proboards.com/thread/2549/lights-effects-small |
