Guessing whilst still having backup options wouldn't be wise. On the other hand, two lifelines for two remaining questions does sound tempting.

@mrv86 So Switch is gone, 50:50 and Expert remain. Here's your alternate Pts. 250,000 question: Pts. 250,000 For which of these creatures are the so-called "lost years" an important stage in life? ♦ A: Eagle owls ♦ B: Sea turtles ♦ C: Hercules beetles ♦ D: Polar bears

@mrv86 What to say, here's your next "test" worth Pts. 250,000. You've heard this before but if you gave me a wrong answer, you will be the biggest loser on points yet.

That is caber toss, it looks quite impressive.

@mrv86 Well, you are giving us this thrilling game on Halloween today as we've entered record territory here. Nobody else has answered the first 11 questions without any trace of a lifeline before.

... a wooden beam! Pts. 64,000 At the Highland Games, what is required for the event of caber toss? ♦ A: Heavy weight ♦ B: Hammer ♦ C: Wooden beam ♦ D: Bundle of straw ♦ P t s . 6 4 , 0 0 0 ♦

@mrv86 The good news though is, you have all your lifelines intact. Your expert lifelines, Olympian1010 and Wumo are still here and have not been scared away, I hope. This is your next question: Pts. 64,000 At the Highland Games, what is required for the event of caber toss? ♦ A: Heavy weight ♦ B: Hammer ♦ C: Wooden beam ♦ D: Bundle of straw

@mrv86 Oh boy, it's getting chilly in here. You know what that means. You've lost your safety net and your board looks like this now: 50:50 Expert Switch Team 15 Pts. 1 Million 14 Pts. 500,000 13 Pts. 250,000 12 Pts. 125,000 11 Pts. 64,000 10 ♦ Pts. 32,000 9 ♦ Pts. 16,000 8 ♦ Pts. 8,000 7 ♦ Pts. 4,000 6 ♦ Pts. 2,000 5 ♦ Pts. 1,000 4 ♦ Pts. 500 3 ♦ Pts. 300 2 ♦ Pts. 200 1 ♦ Pts. 100 It seems you're really up for a test now, considering you've lost in both your previous appearances.

@mrv86 Once you are ready, @OlympicIRL will show you the bags and you'll pick one of them...

@mrv86 And now for today's little surprise which could change your game totally. In a minute, @OlympicIRL will show you six bags and you will have to pick one of them. Three of them contain "Trick", three of them contain "Treat". The following two outcomes may occur: 1. you pick "Treat" -> you will get to keep the safety net on 32,000 and the 4th lifeline (team) will be given to you 2. you pick "Trick" -> you won't get the 4th lifeline and also, the safety net will be taken away from you This is the reason for why you didn't get to choose lifelines earlier. That's my little, scary special for you today.
