*Ask the Audience results cue plays, q9 bed resumes*A: 40% B: 24% C: 14% D: 22% 40% said Rampaging Bulls, 24% said Divide and Conquer, 22% said Combat Aviation, and 14% said Vaccination. Well, millionaireloveruk, the audience were not pretty sure about those terms, but 2 points separated between B and D, while A did not reach the 50% threshold. You could use any of the three lifelines remaining, 50:50, Phone-A-Friend, or Double Dip, OR you could risk P50,000 and play for P100,000. What's your decision?

Hmm... That's interesting, as before I used that lifeline, I thought the right answer would probably by D, simply because that name doesn't sound very 'strategic' if you get what I mean.
I don't want to do it, but I'll have to use my 50:50, please.

Well, he won't take a gamble and decided to use the 50:50 option. Let's see what the Computer has to say. Computer, eliminate two wrong answers so that millionaireloveruk leaves with one wrong answer and the correct one. GO! *50-50 sting plays* |

A and C are gone. B and D remain. millionaireloveruk, the audience are wrong. It's down to Divide and Conquer and Combat Aviation. One of them is worth P100,000, the other is worth P20,000. Take your time on this because you are risking P50,000 for this question. |

Now. I could use ANOTHER lifeline, but 2 on one question is bad enough, so I'm going to try and work this one out.
The game is called 'Game of The Generals', and 'Generals' implies it's to do with the military, more specifically the Army. There may well be Navy Generals and Air Force Generals, but to me at least, Generals implies the Army. The question asks about strategically distributing pieces, so Divide and Conquer would make loads of sense. Divide your pieces across the game board, Conquer your opponent. Meanwhile, Combat Aviation doesn't sound right, it implies some sort of airplane or helicopter to be involved if there is aviation.
I am going to take a risk here, sorry audience, but I'm going to go against you and say D: Combat Aviation. Final Answer.

*q9 final answer plays*
Well, you went against the audience and went for D: Combat Aviation.
I'll tell you what, you better relieved this because the audience is wrong because of the 50:50 option that left with B and D.
You better be more relieved because D is CORRECT!
*q9 correct answer plays, set brightens to purple and quickly followed by q10 lights bed and goes back to dark blue*
Rampaging Bulls is where unsupported generals send into the enemy lines to eliminate as many opposing pieces and try to put them in the enemy rear areas to create havoc and disrupt the enemy's plans, Divide and Conquer is where the troops are divided into three, and Vaccination is just a variation of the Blitzkrieg strategy.
Right, you have P100,000, breaking it into six figures, but it could be five if you made a mistake on the next question, which is worth P150,000. You have two lifeline left, Phone-A-Friend and Double Dip, so you must think very hard and focus on the question. Here it comes, for P150,000.

Though the individual islands don't have biblical names, the islands of what U.S. state are collectively known as "Apostles"?

Post by millionaireloveruk on Sept 28, 2016 13:18:17 GMT -5
Well, straight away I'll rule out New Hampshire. I think they have a group of islands called the Isles of Shoals or something along those lines. This may be part of a bigger group of islands, but to me, that seems unlikely.
As for the other three... I cannot separate them at all. It could be anyone here... Let's check my options.
I could take a blind guess between A, B and D, but I don't like only have a one-third chance of getting it right, so I'm ruling that out. I could walk away, but with two lifelines on the table? No thank you.
I could Phone-A-Friend, but considering there's one answer I've rules out, I quite fancy my chances with the Double Dip. Saving Phone-A-Friend for later is my plan, really, as I can use it and still walk away, but with the Double Dip, I don't have that option.
I think I'll take a leap of faith here and use my Double Dip, please. Final Answer.
*Q10 background stops, Double Dip 1st Chance plays*
As for my first answer... I think I'll say Wisconsin. No particular reason, as this really is a 2 out of 3 chance I'm taking here. B: Wisconsin. Final Answer.

*first double dip final answer plays*
You took the gut out and say B. Well, you risked P80,000 for that...
And in exchange, you got P150,000!
*q10 correct answer plays, set brightens to purple and quickly followed by q6 lights bed and goes to pitch black*
Right, you are 5 questions away from P2,000,000, but you have Phone-A-Friend remaining. If you play it and get it wrong, you will lose P130,000. If you're right, it's P250,000. Take as much time as possible. It's Question 11 out of 15, for P250,000.

I know this one. It's Jinx.
Last year was the 75th Anniversary of the first Tom and Jerry episode, or Jasper and Jinx I guess. I was actually on a school trip to Berlin at the time, and I can't speak a word of German, so I was keeping up with the news through the BBC's website, and there was a small article I found at the bottom about the history of Tom and Jerry, with it being 75 years and al that, and being a bit if a cartoon fan I decided to read it. The very first episode aired on February 10th, 1940, and featured Jasper Cat, and Jinx Mouse.
Also, I've seen the episode aired on Cartoon Network, and I can distinctly recall the cat being Jasper, and the poor cat getting told off a lot. He did deserve it though.
Quite good at getting sidetracked, aren't I... Focusing on the question now. I will have to say C: Jinx, Final Answer.

*q6 final answer plays*
I told you that if you made a mistake, you will lose P130,000.
But, you're not wrong. It's the right answer!
*q11 correct answer plays, set brightens to purple, audience cheers, and quickly followed by q7 lights bed and goes back to pitch black*
I, the people watching here and at home can understand what you are going through right now. Some people might be nervous themselves. They don't want you to give a wrong answer to me.
*host shows cheque*
Right now, you are just four questions away, FOUR, from P2,000,000. I am holding a cheque for you for P250,000, but I would love to hand you a check for a higher amount of money. As of now, you have one lifeline left, which is Phone-A-Friend.
If you get the next one right, it's worth P400,000. You could also walk out of here with P250,000.
However, giving a wrong answer in these stages of the game will mean huge drops, since you chose High Risk. If you get it wrong, you will lose P230,000.
*audience gasps at the drop*
All right. Take as much time as you need, but here it comes.
This is Question 12 of 15 for P400,000.
*q12 bed plays(2007)*

All right. *q12 bed stops, Phone-A-Friend standby cue plays*Let me call Paul G., maybe he will help. (host picks up phone, dials, rings 3 times before Paul G. responds) Paul G.: I'm back. jceurovision: Hello again, Paul G. This is jceurovision calling from "Who Wants to be A Millionaire" in Manila. Paul G.: Hello, there. jceurovision: Right, I am here with millionaireloveruk who needs help on the question. The question is worth P400,000. Paul G.: Wow, talking about money. jceurovision: He said he has no clue, and I think, you are really good at Roman History. Think you can handle this? Paul G.: I most certainly can. jceurovision: Right, the next voice will be millionaireloveruk's and he has 30 seconds to read a question with four possible answrs. One of them is worth P400,000. So, don't hang up because I will give this phone to millionaireloveruk. Paul G.: All right. jceurovision: Very well. (host gives the phone to millionaireloveruk) OK, millionaireloveruk, Paul G. is on the line. One question, four possible answers, P400,000 at stake, and your 30 seconds starts now. *Phone-A-Friend countdown cue plays* |
