Rules
•Groups will play rather than individual contestants.
•Groups should work cooperatively to determine a “final answer” to questions.
•For math questions, calculators are encouraged.
![Page 3: Created by Terri Street Copyright, 2000 Modified 8/2008 A. L](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062307/551b53da550346d31b8b518b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
More Rules• If a question is answered
correctly, the whole advisory advances up the game board.
• If a question is answered incorrectly, the whole advisory will fall down to either the $100 level or the lowest “safe level.”
• The safe levels are indicated witha on the scoreboard.

Lifelines
• 50/50 will eliminate 3 choices per question. • Ask the Audience – if the group wants, they
can poll the other groups to select an answer.• Each group is its own phone-a-friend. This
does not count toward the 3 lifelines.• A total of 3 lifelines can be used (50/50 or
Ask the Audience in any combination).• If a wrong answer causes the play to restart at
the $100 level, a new game begins, resulting in 3 lifelines being available for the next round.
