Who wants to be a Spiral Knight Millionaire?!?
Fri, 10/02/2015 - 20:17
WHAT? You heard me :) Think you have the smarts to become the next Spiral Knight Millionaire?
I am hosting "Who wants to be a Spiral Knight Millionaire!"
If you are interested in participating, please mail me in game: Legobuild. **Please read all rules below before mailing me** I will attempt to arrange times for people to meet and play! In your mail, be sure to state why you would like to play, your current knight rank, and what you hope to use the possible crown prize towards, without this I may overlook your mail entry!
Contestant Entry is currently OPEN.
The rules are easy. There are no life lines and you have 5 seconds to answer each question. (This is to prevent google searches and only able to use what you know!) Once at the 32k cr mark, you have 3 seconds per question to answer. No using any other knowledge then what is already in your head, no asking others. You may stop at any time after you have answered the question and take the crowns and run. If you answer a question incorrectly, you will drop back down to whatever safe zone you were at last. (Basically guaranteed at least that amount) The questions will be multiple choice, but on any subject.
The questions will start easy and progressively get harder. The crown prize structure is below:
- 100 (safe zone) (easiest)
- 200
- 300
- 500
- 1,000 (safe zone)
- 2,000
- 4,000
- 8,000
- 16,000
- 32,000 (safe zone)
- 64,000
- 125,000
- 250,000
- 500,000
- 1,000,000 (you win) (hardest)
Contestant List/Date/Winning Amount:
- To be filled in...
Sponsors:
- Lego Inc.
If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, please contact me.
Terms and Conditions:
I reserve the right to select or skip contestants. At any point if I feel you are using a search or unauthorized source I may disqualify you, aka no crown winnings. You are not guaranteed to win anything if selected to play. I am always right/have final say during event.

I haven't had any problems
I haven't had any problems with any contestants with that rule yet, and everyone seems to be having a blast! I'm not sitting with a timer ready to give them the buzzer on a question. It is more in place to keep the pace of the game moving as well as, if it was say 30 seconds per problem, that is plenty of time to google search something, which I don't want as part of the game, I want it to be what someone knows without any resources.
I honestly don't see any problems in how I have the game setup given that I am giving my own crowns out as awards for simply answering questions with no strings attached, and no sign up fee... if you are interested in becoming a sponsor of the event, I am more than happy to take any adjustments into consideration.

Sounds fun
I would like to join. Sounds like an interesting idea. But 3 seconds per question? That's pretty small. Im only online during weekends so I will mail/msg Friday/Saturday sometime.
EDIT: I need typing time too.

...
some problems here:
1.are there any fields? i might be good at reciting damage lists for SK for example but terrible at reciting things like the history of legoland. i could be better at some things, but other i am just incompetent at. also: i need to read, think and type. 3-5 seconds is too short for my sluggish memory. 10 seconds works, and at this point a person capable of searching it up could still deserve prizes because of efficiency.

As I have mentioned, if
As I have mentioned, if anyone has a problem with the time limit no one is required to play this game. I am simply hosting it for fun. The time limit is not a hard stop limit... more of a place holder. [I have had 0 contestants have any problems with the time limit] Anyone wanting to become a sponsor has say in whatever time limit they feel is fair. Otherwise, my crowns my rules :3

Question.
Do we get to have prewritten notes and facts? Or is this all supposed to be from memory.

Yep, I have plenty of
Yep, I have plenty of crowns.
You can have stuff written down if you really want, but I honestly doubt it will help as the questions can be quite random.

WOW
Yeah, I,m totally doing this! If i win 1,000,000 crowns I may even save up enough after this to get that darn twilight aura >.<
I see a few problems with this. The most notable being the time limit to answer. 5 seconds, much less 3 seconds, is not enough time to read the question, think up the answer, and type it out. Especially if the person is one that hunt and pecks.
