i vs. 100 was a game show where it was i person who answered questions in order to survive "The Mob" of 100. It was based on the Dutch format chosen Een tegen 100 ("1 tegen 100").

Premise [ ]

The game e'er started by the host proverb, "Information technology's 1 vs. 100!"; as the game progressed, the host would say, "It'south i vs. ##!", followed by the number of mob members left after the last question (e.thou. if there were 79 mob members left, the host would say, "It's 1 vs. 79!").

A multiple-choice question with three possible answers was revealed. The Mob was given 15 seconds to lock in their answer before "The I" was given the opportunity to answer the question. He/she signified his/her answer past pressing 1 of 3 buttons that correspond to those answers. If the One was correct, all Mob members that answered the question incorrectly were eliminated from further play, bringing the "The One" closer to winning the game. The corporeality of coin in the contestant'south bank also increased by an amount based on the number of mob members eliminated in that question. If the contestant eliminated all 100 mob members, he/she won the grand cash prize. Withal, if "The One" was incorrect, the game ends and he/she would leave with zippo, and the remaining members of the Mob would split the losing contestant's winnings. Only if everybody missed, nobody won, no coin was awarded, and 100 new people came in to play.

To prevent the (next to) latter from happening, once a player reached a set prize limit, they were asked whether they wanted the Money (leave the game with the accumulated coin) or the Mob (keep playing at risk of losing the coin). After every subsequent question, a player could either quit or continue, only if he/she answered correctly.

The player was non given any data about the side by side question unless 10 or fewer Mob members remained, or no helps are bachelor. At this point, the actor was given a Sneak Peek, where they could run across the next question, but not the answers, earlier deciding whether or not to continue. If a player decided to meet the choices, they were committed to playing the question.

As for the Mob, its members would stay on the evidence as long as they could answer correctly. So they could stay on for multiple games, giving them multiple chances to win the money.

Contestants had three forms of help, or "helps," bachelor to use at any point during the game:

Poll the Mob – Contestants picked one of the 3 answers. The number of mob players who chose that reply was revealed. Originally contestants could enquire one of those players why he/she chose that answer, although the player was allowed to lie; in the final shows this was not offered.
Inquire the Mob – I mob member who answered correctly and i who answered incorrectly were chosen at random. Each explained his/her decision to the contestant. Mob members had to tell the truth equally to which answer they chose, simply did not take to tell the truth as to why they chose that reply.^[1] This automatically eliminated i wrong answer, thus leaving contestants with a 50-50 adventure of picking the right respond. If all mob members answered incorrectly, the solo player would be permitted to talk to one mob member and and then would exist informed that their answer was incorrect. If all mob members answered correctly, the solo player wasn't told that and was given the selection to lock the answer in. This would likewise occur if all the mob members answered incorrectly, simply choose the same incorrect answer.
Trust the Mob – Contestants committed to choosing the reply chosen by the largest number of mob members. If there was a tie for two answers, the solo player had a choice to one of those two answers.

Contestants could use multiple helps on a single question, but could only use each help in one case during the game. It was possible (as shown in episodes 2 and 6) that a mob member could be picked for both the Poll the Mob and Enquire the Mob, even on the same question. The solo actor had to make their decision on their reply within 10 minutes (later this time, the host would prompt for an answer, later on which the solo role player had to answer within i minute). Mob members had only xv seconds (longer than well-nigh versions, which is usually six, every bit in the Australian version, where the time is unedited) to submit their choice, even though it was edited downwards when it aired.^[two]

NBC Version [ ]

The game always opened with Saget saying, "This game is simple. Either you win… or they win." Later on asking the contestant if he/she was ready and asking the mob if they were fix, Saget would begin the game by saying, "It'southward time to play 1 vs. 100!" In later episodes, it was removed and later the introduction of the mobs, Saget would say, "It's ane vs. 100 [(name of special mobs)]!" (The brackets represented mobs on special editions). Contestants played for a top prize of $ane,000,000.

Programming history [ ]

The bear witness commencement premiered on NBC as a five-episode series on October 13, 2006 and ran on Friday nights. On Oct xx, 2006, it was reported that NBC ordered ten additional episodes of 1 vs. 100, citing the testify'southward encouraging ratings performance. The serial returned to NBC's schedule with these new episodes on December 1, 2006.

When the bear witness was in development, i of its working titles was Eliminator. Some of the rules that were tested would take made the game more complicated (e.g., there were ways for eliminated 'mob' members to be returned to the game). Emptying ladders were similar to the original Dutch version, winnings were determined based on the cumulative number of Mob members eliminated, and of the three "dodges," one "contrivance" was a second chance (which would be used in the French version of the game). Amid those who auditioned to be host were Alan Thicke, Billy Bush, Bronson Pinchot, and Jim Lampley.

Fifty-fifty after the evidence debuted, in that location was considerable reworking of the rules and format. For example, the value of eliminated mob members was dissimilar during the testify's initial run of 5 episodes:

Question	1	2	3	four	5	half-dozen	7	8	9	x	eleven	12+
Episodes 1–2	$100	$500	$1,000	$2,000	$3,000	$4,000	$v,000	$6,000	$7,000	$8,000	$9,000	$10,000
Episodes three–5	$100	$250	$500	$one,000	$i,500	$2,000	$three,000	$4,000	$five,000	$6,000	$7,500	$10,000

Contestants were as well able to cease later every question on the first five episodes, and the only two helps were "Poll the Mob" and "Inquire the Mob," which had to be used in that order (and were merely called "Kickoff Assist" and "2d Help"). A massive lighting and graphic update was added on episode 6. Examples of this included yellow lighting when faced with the Money or Mob decision, flames bursting outwards in the mob when the contestant elected to continue, and imperial electric plasma flowing inwards when the solo player chose to use a assist. A new ladder for winning money was likewise added, which was as follows:

Question	Value
i	$i,000
2
three
iv	$ii,000
5	$ii,000
half dozen	$3,000
vii	$4,000
8	$5,000
9	$vi,000
10	$7,000
11	$8,000
12	$9,000
13+	$10,000

In this money ladder, the contestant had to answer the showtime iii questions correctly, earlier deciding whether to have the money or play on. So, for the $2,000 tier, the contestant had to answer 2 more before deciding. All other tiers were as before, with the contestant existence offered to stay or go later each question.

The Jan 19, 2007 episode saw two players lose to the mob for the first time. The game on February 23, 2007 saw ii players lose equally well. Both of those players had all iii helps left. Contestant Lou Siville became the first solo contestant to have the money rather than the mob after the beginning opportunity to quit. He left ane assistance on the table. The March 16, 2007 episode included a special feature at the end of the game, where the contestant could bet all winnings on one more than question, which had to be answered without the utilize of helps or the involvement of the mob. If correct, the contestant's coin was doubled. If incorrect, the contestant would lose everything. If the contestant chose not to play, then this special circular was played for fun, to see what would have happened. The contestant on the March sixteen, 2007 episode decided not to hazard doubling her winnings to $306,000. She would have answered the question correctly.

Notable records included the $343,000 won by Barry Lander on January 12, 2007, which was the almost ever won past the solo contestant until Jason Luda became the show'south first millionaire. The nigh money e'er lost to the mob was $263,000 by Raul Torres (February 16, 2007). The nearly money e'er won by an individual mob member was $62,600 by Dennis Cisterna III, and a waitress named Chloe, over three shows while facing iv contestants (February 23, 2007). The about questions answered by a mob fellow member was 49 by Ned Andrews (December 15, 2006 through January nineteen, 2007).^[iii] The highest number of mob members defeated was 95 by poker histrion Annie Knuckles (February ix, 2007, the "Last Homo Standing" episode). The total number of solo contestants stood at 33 (17 winners, 16 losers).

Starting hither, the prize structure was adamant by the number of mob members that were eliminated. Therefore, every 10 mob members eliminated increased the amount for the solo histrion. Once the player had either used up all three helps or eliminated at least 50 mob members, he/she was immune a "Sneak Peek" earlier each question for the residue of the game. Only the question was revealed, non the answer choices, and the player would and so have to decide whether to continue playing or leave the game with all coin won to that point. Here's the manner the coin ladder went:

100	$ane,000,000

thirty-39	$ten,000
20-29	$five,000
10-19	$ane,000
Less than x	$0
