But....if that person has been knocked out of the seat, as you feel they have given an incorrect answer - how will they not be penalised?? They've already lost the seat by that point in a sense.Quote:

I read the rules that if you were in the seat on the last day of the month you went through, not that you could be knocked out on the last day of the month....
This is the way i saw it to, if your in the seat on the last day of the month, then you win for that month. What would be the point of trying all the month?Quote:

I'm not knolwedgable on everything so if the person in the seat can present evidence to suggest there is another answer, fair enough, if they cant or they didnt know there was another answer, well we're not physic.Quote:

yes it will, but as ive said before finding killer knock out questions is just as important as answering questions in this game. It's about trying to maintain your place in the seat or trying to get someone out the seat. There needs to be an incentive to battle, and the prize money will do so.Quote:

plus one person will go trough at the end of year who took the seat the most times, so if you havent got trough at all after 11 months, but youve been taking the seat troughout the year you stand a good chance of getting in. At the end of the day the finale moth will be head to head challenges, so if you person who managed to sneak the seat at the end of the month had no intelligance then they wouldnt last long in the end.
when you knock someone out, you are then in the seat, even tough you dont answer questions until the following day.
so i stand by what was said, whoever is in the seat at the end of the month is saved. After all the whole idea of the game is to be in the seat and stay in the seat, if you get knocked out you clearly dont know enough about your subject.
In the contestents defence, it's much harder when you're actually on the seat, so much pressure :p Even Dawn didn't do well on the first day, she probably was nervous or something...Quote:

:rotfl: that's exactly what I was like Dawn. Even the ones I did know I was typing carefully and fast at the same time :p And stuff like that :p My heart was actually racing soo fast :p
Please do not be too specific with your choice of specialist subjects.
If me or Debs feel that the criteria of your subject are too specific we will ask you to change it.
Thanks
Sorry if this has been asked..
Whoever stays tomorrow.. will that person still take part in the other months if they won for January? I mean, if they did, they could win every month, then there would be no competition at the end.. but if they didn't, there may be a lack of questions for all the other months??
