Now this has always puzzled me and I can't seem to find an anywhere but here goes. So we have all seen some $100 questions we had no idea to and then seen some million dollar questions we knew before the answers came up. So my Q is, how do the producers or whoever it is, value how much each Q should be worth? I mean Dan Blonsky $1million Q about how far the Sun from Earth is, was defs not worth a million.
Would love to know how they value it. If anyone has an idea please holla!!!

It's all subjective. The producer, or head question writer, or whoever, takes the questions and does his best to rank them in order of difficulty. Obviously this is not perfect due to that person's own knowledge base. 93 million miles may have been something that struck the producer as being really difficult.

Yeah, I agree with kplewisvox. It's all due to the person's own knowledge, some people will find a question easy, some others hard ...etc etc and that's why sometimes questions for high amount of money seems very easy or very hard. Just an exemple,for us in France, the first 4 Million Francs winner had a final question which was for me really really easy.
It was :
Which of these spellings is correct ?
A: Australopithèque <= The correct answer which means "Australopithecus".
B: Ostralopitèque
C: Australaupitèque
D: Ostralaupitèque
If you know it (You learn it in primary school) it's very easy but visibly it was not the case of the question writter ^^

Yep every one In my opinion is right, The question writers base it on their knowledge. They either know it or they don't... Bearing in mind that they may have went to School years ago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytoLAxIMRx8This footage entitled "Is that your final Answer" shows a few clips about the writers. Enjoy!  |
