That's not the point. If it were next week, which has prizes such as a Fiat 500 or Holiday vouchers, questions like "What does 69p of UK taxpayer's money go towards" would rule out Irish people who would otherwise be good at general knowledge and could've won a huge prize. It puts Irish people at a disadvantage.

in fairness that 69p was a common sense one more than anything. it defo wasnt NHS and if the PM cost the taxpayer that much there would be outcry so common sense said it was the ponsey royals.

how the **** is answering questions Uk-centred without actually getting anything to show for your efforts fun? absolutely shocking.

I take it you've never watched the likes of the Weakest Link or Who Wants to be a Millionaire? just for ****s and giggles? I've never won anything watching them, but I've still had fun answering the questions. It was similar tonight, except the level of interaction was ramped up.

While I agree it was a straightforward question it would've taken a little thinking for a lot of people to work out, and losing those instant answer credits basically rules ya out.

For those whining about the UK centric questions you can go on the website and submit your own questions to be included in the show.

Indeed you can:

Missed it tonight but Im looking forward to it tomorrow night and really looking forward to the football one next week.

Played this last night for a bit and have to say enjoyed it. The uk centric questions didn't bother me, they were fairly easy and there was only a handful of them anyway. The only slight issue I had was that sometimes there was a bit of a wait between questions but it wasn't that bad. Was good considering it didn't cost you anything (on top of your subscription).

Had a blast with this last night with a few friends, in a party (in the mob).

I thought it wasn't on tonight

Thought it was good fun, if mayve a little ove long @ 2hrs.
One thing I did notice was that Irish player who was selected as the one also was in the Mob about 3 times.
His lifetime score was way above what was achievable from the 1st night so he was obviously playing in the US/Canadian shows as well. No biggie, but it obviously influencing him being in the mob and the one.

Think his name was Mr Pibbles or similar.

GodlikeRed

yea Mr pibbles

he had like 27 million top score
ridiculous

That the guy who's avatar was exactly like Noel Edmunds ? with 30k score or soemthing ??
I lol'd when i seen his char

Looking at some of the top scores I'm guessing there were yanks and others playing who had been invited.

Twilightning

That Mr. Pibbles guy's score was ridiculous. Something in the region of 27 million I believe. I got mine to around 60,000 last night. :pac:

I like how they have split up the different types into different games each day instead of just going each day with a different mode.
