probium: Sound design of Arkadium Millionaire is flawed. Once I get the final question wrong, I get treated to the $32,000 lose cue, NOT the $1 Million lose cue. Aug 19, 2024 0:42:37 GMT -5

FrankT: Good grief, nobody told me they revived Wheel of Fortune in the UK. Looks like I have something else to watch now! Aug 18, 2024 17:54:12 GMT -5

probium: For some reason when I click on a lifeline I already used, it freezes. Also the sound design is flawed, with the normal question wrong theme playing in place of the early question wrong theme. Aug 11, 2024 23:25:14 GMT -5

Why you must raise your left hand if you're about to sneeze? May 10, 2018 10:45:16 GMT -5

I have been reading people's story about going to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. There is this one story who participated at the 10th Anniversary. This was his story.

An aside: I remember there were a very strange set of arcane guidelines in place - never get up from your chair before Regis, for example. I suppose this is because he's very short, but I just remember it being ridiculous and arbitrary. Another was to raise your left hand if you're ever going to sneeze.

I for my life can't figure this out why you need to raise your left hand in case for sneezing. Someone?

Wouldn't want to ruin a funny comment or anecdote with a loud "ACHOO" in the middle of it.

Who was required to raise their hand? Audience members or contestants? If it's the contestants, I'd guess it probably has something to do partly with what Gagamillionaire said but also for sound purposes. Sure, the microphones they have undoubtedly could handle the sound of a sneeze, it probably has something to do with the poor people that listen to the show backstage with headphones on. Sudden, unexpected, loud noises hurt your ears!

Exactly my concern. I felt like I would have know this if this is a common instruction.
