I haven't been doing well on this game, but last night was an improvement. I went out on Question 14 (Declaration of Independence signers) after using the Double Dip. At least I didn't leave any lifelines on the table, this time.
The host may have been happy to have a question about her name, but it sure didn't help much in weeding out the finalists for the big money. IIRC, there were 45 people who split the $250K prize money.

Re: Millionaire Live game
I haven't been playing. What was Q 14? Was it which of the four was not a Signer? Probably George Washington. I had that question just a few days ago.MarleysGh0st wrote: ↑Fri May 15, 2020 9:07 amI haven't been doing well on this game, but last night was an improvement.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Yes, there were seven Johns. Two Charles, three Benjamins, and just one Roger and Stephen.MarleysGh0st wrote: ↑Fri May 15, 2020 2:23 pm[approximate phrasing, from memory]

Reviewing this, the phrasing might have been "which of these first names was most common", since it appears that other names not among the choices were more common.Spoiler
B. Benjamin
I used to walk down the sidewalk in front of Independence Hall that has stars embedded in it with the names of the signers. I remember a lot of the names, but not all.
