When Super Millionaire was introduced in 2004, a new lifeline was implemented aside from Double Dip: "Three Wise Men". That lifeline was available after a contestant has successfully answered the 10th question. If the contestant wanted to use the lifeline, three people who were chosen to be the experts would be asked the question and would try to answer it within the time of 30 seconds.
In the 10th Anniversary of WWTBAM, the lifeline was brought back, but there were many differences: Firstly, only one expert was helping the contestant in case the lifeline was used in the question, hence why the name was changed to "Ask the Expert". When the contestant reached the first guaranteed safe haven on the money tree, the lifeline was added to the game and the chosen expert was introduced. If the contestant was stuck in a question and wanted to use the lifeline, the clock was stopped and the expert was asked the question. This time, the expert didn't have a time limit for that, which was also a difference compared to "Three Wise Men". If the expert thought a specific answer to be the correct one, the clock would start again where it left off and the contestant could either choose if the advice was right or not.
What do you guys think of the change? Do you consider the original "Three Wise Men" lifeline to be better or is the revamped "Ask the Expert" the more ideal lifeline?
