About Categories of Prize winnings
Hi fans of Millionaire franchise,
I discover some categories of Prize winnings by country in random (for example: 24.000€ winners)
Could someone please edited these categories for each country properly to avoid confusion?
Thanks to reply me,
Mickael79, Big fan of WWTBAM.

Best Contestants Whose Runs I've Filled Out
Throughout my time on this wiki, I discovered some pretty memorable big winners who won six figures.
- Marla Miller (won $250,000 in the Shuffle Format - not an easy thing to do!)
- Debra McBride (ran out of lifelines by $16,000, but answered the next three questions to win $125,000.)
- Bethany Harvey (won $100,000 in the Shuffle Format - again, not easy to do!)
- Pat McGonigle (won $100,000 in Season 17.)
- Derek and Delia Banks (father and daughter who won £250,000 and saved a lifeline for the £500,000 question - that's how you play!)
- Steve Cornfield (won £125,000. He was the contestant right after £250,000 winner Andy Martin.)
- John and Sally Salter (couple who won £125,000.)
- Nigel Wackett (instantly knew the answer to the £125,000 question before the cho…
Season 3 (Argentina)
Hello,
I have something to tell you:
It's this season has been aired? Because I checked on Wikipedia that the Argentine version of Millionaire has be stopped in September 2002 (Presented by Julian Weich) before the revival in 2019. I have suspicions about this Season 3 (2002-2003).
Can someone clarify on this article please?

Millionaire Contestant Fraud

Well, THIS is quite a headline. Who knew someone who did poorly on the show could pull off something so dastardly?

I watched the first episode of the 2023 season and I think it was not that bad at all.

Many WWTBAM videos have recently been taken down by some conpany called LDS despite the fact that they don't even own WWTBAM, I don't know anything else about them though. Has anybody managed to archive some videos before they got taken down.

When was the last episode of Vrei să fii miliardar? broadcast in 2003? 22 May, or 1 July 2003?
It is well known that 2003 was the final year of Vrei să fii miliardar? being broadcast on Prima TV in Romania. In comparison to other international versions of WWTBAM, there are no more than 15 videos of VSFM being uploaded on YouTube. Luckly, one of them is being the final episode of the show from 2003, featuring Doru Popovici (30,000,000 lei) and Nicolae Daraban (125,000,000 lei). The video has a date provided: 22 May 2003, thus it's considered to be its actual date it was broadcast. Indeed, several sites dedicated to the show indicate 22 May to be the final date of VSFM.
Yet, on WWTBAM wikia, the final date is shown as 1 July 2003, a considerable distance between those two dates. Undoubtely this might make readers a bit confused.
So, wh…
This man here is NOT a Top Prize Loser
So, it seems that many person believe that this man here is a Top Prize Loser on the Japanese version.
Well, as a Millionaire fan from Japan, I would like to point out that he is, in fact, NOT a Top Prize Loser, or even a contestant on Quiz $ Millionaire at all.
His "run" was shown on a Japanese TV show called Trivia no Izumi (The Fountain of Trivia) in a segment called Trivia no Tane (The Seed of Trivia). You can find out more about the show here, but basically, in this particular segment, the viewers submit questions to the show to receive an answer on screen as a trivia. One of which was a Millionaire related question...
A viewer sent Trivia no Izumi the question: "On Quiz $ Millionaire, which one of the four options has become the correct answer the mos…
Suggestion for Deletion
There are two articles that feature the exact same person and run (Tetsurō Tanba and Tetsuro Tanba), which makes me think that one of them should be deleted.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire 2020... my review
Now, while it may have the flair of the current British version hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, Jimmy Kimmel's not so bad. In fact, he won $125,000 when he was a contestant on Regis' version.
The original music is back, so that's a nice plus. The fact they're not using Ask the Audience is fine. Let's give this some time.

About the Penultimate Question of the first Penultimate Prize Loser in Vietnam on 2007
When I and my mother go to walk around the road, my mother said that she know the 14th question of an conpetitor who was the first Penultimate Prize Loser in Vietnam. I write this question I heared from my mother in Vietnamese.
This is the question: Năm nào không xuất hiện trong lịch?
4 answers are Canh Tý, Giáp Tý, Bính Tý and Mậu Tý
My mother said that the correct answer is Mậu Tý.
Correct naming of the FFF round.
For every time, when i see name of FFF simply named "Fastest Finger" on other than the U.S. and Canada, i will rename it to the "Fastest Finger First", because "Fastest Finger" name is official name only for the U.S. and Canadian versions of the show.
BREAKING NEWS - AN USER IS TRYING TO GRIEF THE WIKI!
Yes, That's what I wanna say.
As you know, Wikipedia and of course FANDOM is a free-editing blog about everything around us.
But, take advantage of that, some people always try to grief and destroy the wiki. And now, there's an "Autism" group trying to grief it. They change the articles of the winners to a way that they died because of mocking.... the group. TÈO HD TV is a member of that group. So, I hope anyone can DELETE and BAN him.
(P/s: sorry for my bad English)
FFF Fails
Every day when i see new FFF fails from the Austrian and German versions of Who Wants to Be A Millionaire, I will update each time.
