*the following WWTBAM intro, starting at 0:22, plays*



*the audience cheers wildly and the host enters the set*

Thank you, thank you very much! Hello one and all, and welcome to the 67th episode of the official RPG of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. We are here, and we are live from St. Paul, Minnesota. Not Wisconsin, you understand?! *the audience laughs* I'm Peachfanclub, and I am psyched to be your host for this episode. As you may recall, we gave away a total of $115,000 in the last episode, and congratulations to millionaire2000 on his $100,000 win. But tonight, here's hoping someone, anyone will go all the way! All it takes is fifteen questions and three new lifelines, and they'll win a million dollars. It's as simple as that.

But to find out who's going to get to play for the million of course, I have to introduce our contestants. They are Dragonman 2455 and metemeister. And now it's time to decide which one of you gets to play first. At the bottom of this post, you will see a question and four items. The one of you who puts these items in the correct order, in the fastest time, will be our next contestant. Everyone else, I ask that you please do not interfere. They must do this on their own, of course, thank you very much. Now, here's the Fastest Finger First question...

Put the following celebrities in order according to their age, from the youngest to the oldest.

A: Adele
B: George Clooney
C: Meryl Streep
D: Serena Williams

[metemeister]

ADBC - OK

[Dragonman 2455]

ACDB - OK

[Peachfanclub]

*the FFF cue ends with the time's up sting*

Wow, that was awfully fast. I have to think our contestants really know their celebrities. Anyway, let's check out the correct order, from the youngest to the oldest...

A: Adele, age 28 years old
D: Serena Williams, age 35
B: George Clooney, age 55
C: Meryl Streep, age 67

That's the right order. Now the question is, who got it right, and more importantly in the fastest time...

Dragonman 2455 - ACDB
metemeister - ADBC - 0:11

metemeister, you're it! Let's jump right into the Hot Seat!

*the audience applauds as the crossover cue plays*

Ok then, this is metemeister, surely a familiar face to all you fans of this RPG series. I should mention that I was the question writer for episode 65 of the series, in which you won £250,000. But this time I'm going to be reading the questions to you instead of writing them. *the audience laughs* Have you thought about how you're going to play this game in order to get to a million dollars this time around?

[metemeister]

Yeah, I definitely have.

I guess it's a matter of thinking the question through, even if you don't really have much of an idea. Those lifelines are really helpful after question 10, and using them on 2,000 dollar questions really feel like a waste.

Let's hope you give me a check for double the amount of money this time!

[Peachfanclub]

Well Mete, I would certainly love to do just that. But you've got to play the game first. You're just fifteen questions away from winning one million dollars.

$1 million
$500,000
$250,000
$125,000
$64,000
$32,000
$16,000
$8000
$4000
$2000
$1000
$500
$300
$200
$100

You've got those three tried-and-true lifelines to work with: 50/50, Ask the Audience, and Phone a Friend. Now if you make it to the $32,000 level, you will also unlock Switch the Question, which you can use if you see a question don't like. Right then, lots of luck. Let's play Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. *the q1 let's play cue plays*

Question #1, hopefully nice and straightforward, is for $100. Here it is.

Which of these famous Brits is best known for inventing the World Wide Web in 1989?

A: Paul McCartney
B: Tim Berners-Lee
C: Tony Blair
D: Mr. Bean

*the audience laughs at answer D.*

[metemeister]

Only one which makes any sense is Tim-Berners Lee, final answer.

[Peachfanclub]

It's good, it's the right answer. You've got $100. *the audience applauds*

Well done Mete. One down, 14 to go. Here's question #2, for $200...

Complete the phrase commonly used to describe someone in a troublesome situation: "I'm in a bit of a..."?

A: Cucumber
B: Avocado
C: Toma
D: Pickle

[metemeister]

I'm in a bit of an avocado, f...

Nah, just kidding. *audience laughs*

D: Pickle, final answer.

[Peachfanclub]

D: Pickle? *the contestant nods* It's the right answer. You've won $200. *the audience applauds*

Ok, you're doing fantastic. Here's question #3, for $300. You've got all three lifelines.

Which U.S. state is the smallest by population?

A: Wyoming
B: Tennessee
C: Texas
D: New Jersey

[metemeister]

I'd hate to get out on the third question, but I'm not letting myself waste a lifeline.

Can't say I'm 100% sure but one of my math teachers were from Wyoming and she told me that it is a very small secluded place which few people live in.

I really hope it's not NJ, I'd hate to go out on question 3.

A, final answer.

[Peachfanclub]

No... it's not NJ, it is indeed Wyoming! You've won $300! *the audience applauds*

Actually, it's the only state with a population of less than 600,000 as of 2017. The rest of them all have more than six million! *the audience laughs* Right, you've still got all three lifelines should you need them. Question #4 is this, for $500.

In the annual Wimbledon tennis tournament, a Gentlemen's Singles match is played best of how many sets?

A: Three
B: Five
C: Seven
D: Nine

[metemeister]

I recall it being different than any of the other events, but I'm not sure and I'm DEFINITELY not leaving with 0, so I'll Ask The Audience.

[Peachfanclub]

Very well. Audience, Mete would like some help here. This is the question once again: In the annual Wimbledon tennis tournament, a Gentlemen's Singles match is played best of how many sets?

A: Three
B: Five
C: Seven
D: Nine
