Hi guys,
The other day I was playing one of those 50p a play pub quiz machines and thought to myself how easy the games would be to win on if there was a list of questions and answers available. So for that reason I have decided to create a list of questions and answers on text file format so that questions can be easily searched for using laptops, pda's etc. If anyone would like to help please do not hesitate to post questions and answers. They can be posted into this thread and then hopefully we can populate a list big enough to win on those machines. Ive looked around and the most popular game i see on those machines is who wants to be a millionaire. But if anyone has any other choices please let me know. I hear there is a new football game available where a newspaper has printed all the answers. It would be interesting to get hold of that.
Many Thanks
Great Idea I just can't see myself stood in my local arcade or mega bowl with me laptop I would be out on my ear.
Paperbased may work if it was printed out in an easy to read format and small/compact size. - For example a-z of question references, so person gets question eg what was robbie williams first No. 1? the person would then look through the a-z for r-robbie williams or w-williams and it would note down first song and the answer. Any other robbie question would also be listed under because there porbably is similar questions eg whats robbie's middle name etc.![]()
If a pc version could be created and people could print it out and staple it together in the right a-z that would work. However after reading post about couple winning 10,000 on quiz machine and the game being withdrawn nationwide and that was with them not cheating I cannot see the who wants to be a millionaire lasting if this list gets out!![]()

this has been discussed before and it would be shockingly simple for anyone with good computing skills, you would just need to buy one of the machines in question and get a clean copy of the questions file.
However, it would HAVE to be on a PDA or phone as there are over 96,000 questions, maybe you could fit them on paper as many have suggested so long as you can search through a 1,000 page book within (6?) seconds..
Why has it come to this?
I've thought of this before- if you could answer every question you could win a fortune.
Although I'm sure the questions get updated frequently to stop this sort of thing. Saying that I'm not sure- ah, anything for a scam!!![]()
They update their machines every few months with a newer set of questions when they come to install different games
Voice recegniton, could be done if you bought your own machine and then recorded them with the answer
Its only on loannnnnnn, its only on loaaannnnnn in Athens Grace will bring it back hommmmmmmmeeeee.

The question sets are updated regularly, and machines themselves report back on how they're doing, so if any one game is defeated a software update is pushed down pronto.
Case in point is the Spot The Difference game on the ITBoxes, really good players could empty these, so the software was updated to make it literally impossible to complete.

Most SWPs have a way to avoid paying when they want to anyway, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire just added a load of extra questions in before the 1,000,000 question, Cludeo simply never gives you a move that will land on the room you need to solve the murder, etc etc.
SWPs are rigged, painfully so, I wouldn't be surprised if they're actually in breach of the legislation because the law demands that it be possible to win the jackpot every time on an SWP if you're skilful enough, but this blatantly isn't the case.
However, given how fucking toothless and spineles the regulator/legislators are when it comes to AWPs, what chance they do anything about SWPs?
All that said, I really enjoy playing SWPs and always put a few quid through, but your attitude to them has to be, "Play for fun and if I get a couple of quid back so much the better" - rather than expecting to be making any sort of decent profit.

triva pursuit is my favourite quiz game of all time can you make money on these
army of ghosts
a boy used to come into my local and play millionaire for hours, he used to carry a note pad and pen and for the answers he didnt know he jotted them down and i suppose found out the answers after and memorised them.
he looked like a right twat on a busy friday nite doing this and i never saw him win anything decent, so i assume it didnt work really that well for him.
Okey Dokey, Roll em
