When discussing how a Stein game could be done, Matt O. came up with a dandy suggestion. In the second round, have a large die with Ben's face on 3 of the sides. The MC asks the question, the two contestants duke it out to answer first. After one of them answers, the die is tossed. If "Ben" appears, he supposedly "beat" you to answering. If blank, you beat Ben. Neat how the die element after a contestant answers creates the emotional "sting" of having known the answer, only to have Ben keep you from getting the money. Thought that was pretty novel. Now, Bob - did GSN look in my window? I did make a Friend Or Foe box game sitting right by me here. Used question cards from Millionaire, made shields to act as the booths, and prepared a cardboard table for the showdowns. As we've said before, many of these could be done, but since so many of these shows mentioned were either syndicated or on cable nets, these shows would need pretty massive ratings and buzz to interest a company in spending the bucks to make them. I liked to build them for the challenge and because I obviously had way too much free time on my hands.
