Ed_ · May 2020

Thought it would be fun to have a go at a mega spoiler quiz based on who wants to be a millionaire, so, here are the rules:

Once you open a spoiler, that is your final answer
You can only use each lifeline once, choose wisely
No google!
Tell us below how far you got, and what you would use the money* you won on!

If you want to add to the realism, you can have the music in the background:

*For avoidance of doubt, and so that I don't inadvertantly bankrupt the charity/myself, your prize money will be in our own community currency that has no real cash value

Honestly without cheating I got all of them right! My history knowledge and music knowledge helped me.

Without using life lines?

When I said no cheating I meant that I did not use Google and I only used each lifeline once.

@Ed_ You might want to check the maths for question 15. You said that you would lose £478 000 if you got the question wrong. But £500 000 - £478 000 equals £22 000. It is supposed to go down to £32 000. You would actually lose £468 000.

Nice spot @Kasa2103 - clearly my morning brain wasn't working too well

Also well done on getting through all the questions! What would you use the money on if you won it in real life?

Who wants to be a Mixillionaire?
