Hello there!
First off: Yes, it's feasible and perfectly doable, as I already did this in German, but in a much smaller circle of players.
So, how would you guys like to participate in a Radio version of a show of Millionaire, with a friend of mine programming a Java applet to display the lifelines, moneytree and questions (to eliminate the possible effects of a delay) in real time, with all participants listening to the broadcast and answering via IRC?
I'm not going to announce anything here right now, as I don't know if people want to participate (or if it's alright with the admins and moderators).
I would be the host.
I would need someone (or multiple someones) to write enough questions for at least 3 games, and of course some contestants.
Express your opinion.

Well that sounds great! This is what I would call a real "Millionaire" experience!  |

WOW! That would be EPIC!! The question is..What version of Millionaire seasons will be played?
ie) Millionaire Shuffle -Season 9 (life line '2 Jump the question, Ask the audience')
- Millionaire Clock - Season 7-8 (life line 'Phone a friend (later Ask the expert), Double dip, Ask the audience)
- Millionaire Classic - Season 4-6 (life line 'Switch the question, Phone a friend, Ask the audience, 50/50 )
- Millionaire Original - Season 1-4 (life line 'Phone a friend, Ask the audience, 50/50)
??

Well, the applet my friend programmed has 4 lifelines, 50:50, ATA, PAF and Double Dip, and it's based off Millionaire Classic, so I guess it's Millionaire Classic.
I also don't have the music of the rest.

It would be really cool to see it in action once things are in place and ready for public to play!  Keep us posted! |

Well, to show how things will work: This is what my friend programmed. click, it would bomb the dimensions of the forumBasically, you could call the left one "Contestant Screen" and the right one "Host Screen". I will include the Contestant Screen on a page along with a Java IRC-Client and a player for the radio stream. Then, the questions will appear on the screen and I will read it through the player, then you answer via IRC. Pretty simple, is it? I can type in whatever I want. For example, I type this:  And it will look like this on the Contestant Screen:  I hope you don't mind that we'll have to play with the German money tree, as my friend is currently working on something else and I don't want to bother him with this. |

As I said, he's working on a new project right now, and I don't want to bother him with more WWTBAM stuff.
He's not much of a fan of it either. However, we have a history of starting fun projects, and he decided to help me with the German version of "Millionaire-Cast", programming that applet.

Is this still a possibility? Because I'd be more than happy to write questions.
