[How to Play] [Million Dollar Bill Graphic] [Questions

From Charlene Goodfellow, $ellabration Region, Canada

Acting on my veiled suggestion on the message board this week...Charlene took the idea and ran with it, creating the prototype "Who Wants to be a [company] Millionaire" Game for your shows! Now remember - it's the first draft - but it's so good and I think it will be such a hit - take it and use/change as you see fit. I'll try to set up a feedback section on this page as well so you can add questions and ideas to make it even better - but for now I just want to get it out here so you can start using it!

Thanks to Janene, Mindy, Andrea, Caren, Jackie, and Sandy for additional questions added this afternoon.

Depending on the size of the group, divide the guests into teams. (Teams of 2-3 people are good).

Give each team their "life lines"

  • Ask a friend
  • 50/50
  • Poll the entire group

Each group has a turn answering a question. For every question right, each person in the group gets a ticket. Or you may prefer to use fake money, doubling the value when you return back to the same team. If you choose to use money, you can take some of it away if the team gets the wrong answer.

Continue until you have a sufficient amount of questions, doubling the money/tickets as you go along.

You can have a winner a couple of ways:

  • The team with the most money wins and each team member gets a tealight (this is why I suggest small teams - not so many tealights to give away)
  • If you use tickets, do a couple of drawings for prizes
  • Players cash in their money for tickets and do a drawing
  • (Belinda's addition) *Winner(s) get a YCHIA brochure and a fake Million Dollar Bill (attached - see below) so they can have every opportunity to offer themselves the chance to become a Millionaire in [company] by becoming a consultant!
