Plus One вЂ“ Debuting in Season 13, this lifeline allows a contestant to call upon his or her companion to come on stage and help answer the question.

If a video link to the expert was unavailable, the expert joined the show via phone instead. Unlike Three Wise Men, there was no set time limit and the contestant and expert were allowed to discuss the question. The lifeline was originally available after the contestant got the fifth question correct, then moved to the beginning of the game after Phone-a-Friend was removed. The contestant called for an expert face-to-face via Skype, and have that person collaborate on an answer he/she could use.

Ask the Expert вЂ“ Similar to Three Wise Men.

Also, during the Clock format, if a player used this lifeline, got the first answer wrong, and time ran out before they could give their second answer (as the timer continues after the first wrong answer), it would be considered a wrong answer, meaning they had to go back to the last milestone that they reached. Even though it never happened on Super Millionaire, it was possible (when available) to use 50:50 and then Double Dip to get the correct answer by the process of elimination. This first premiered on Super Millionaire in 2004 and was used on the syndicated run from 2008 to 2010. No other lifelines nor a decision to walk away was offered in this situation.

Double Dip вЂ“ The contestant got two chances to answer the question.

However, any lifelines used prior to this one were not reinstated when the new question was shown. This was only shown in the syndicated run beginning in 2004 and was ended in 2008. This lifeline was only given after answering the $25,000 question.

Switch the Question вЂ“ If the contestant thought that question was too hard to answer, he/she could ask the computer to eliminate that question and generate a new one.The lifeline was used in the 2020 revival. The lifeline would eventually be replaced by Plus One in 2014. In return for the discontinuation of Phone-a-Friend, Ask the Expert became available immediately. While it was not necessarily a rules violation, it was contrary to the original intent of this lifeline. This lifeline was ended early in 2010 because of an increasing trend in contestantsвЂ™ friends using Internet search engines to look up the right answer. Phone-a-Friend вЂ“ The contestant could call a friend or family member and ask the current question for 30 seconds, and the phoned friend or family member gave his/her answer.This lifeline is the only one of the original lifelines to never be removed from the game. Ask the Audience вЂ“ The audience is given the same question as to the contestant, and their job is to vote on which answer they think is correct by pressing one of four lettered buttons on their keypads.When the lifeline returned, so did the practice of having the production team select the answers to be taken away those answers are predetermined but not random. This lifeline was discontinued in 2008 but was resurrected in 2015. In the primetime version's first three seasons, the incorrect answers that are to be taken away were determined by the show's production team when the show moved to syndication, the incorrect answers were taken away randomly. 50:50 вЂ“ Two incorrect answers are removed by the computer, leaving only one incorrect answer and the correct answer.The contestant can use more than one lifeline on a question, but each lifeline can be used only once. If by chance a contestant is stuck on a question, he/she can call for a lifeline, thereby giving the contestant an added advantage. However, the amounts themselves are not cumulative: Here's how they score for each question (amounts in bold are benchmarks, in other words, guaranteed sums therefore, it's yours to keep). The answer is not official until the contestant confirms it by saying 'Final Answer' usually right after the host asks the famous question, вЂњIs that your final answer?вЂќ If he/she is correct, the contestant wins money for that question and moves on to the next question. All the contestant has to do is to choose the one that is correct. Each question has four possible answers (A, B, C & D). The host asked up to 15 (later 14) questions. 11 Who Wants to Be a Millionaire - Play It!.9 The List of Guest Hosts (Vieira era/Syndicated version only).6.1 Who Wants to Be a Super Millionaire.2 Gameplay (The Shuffle Format, 2010вЂ“2015).
