Starts this Friday.

The winner can win up to 10,000 Live points. Mob can win an Arcade game and 800 points. Even top 3 viewers can win an Arcade game.

Pretty neat. I really want to play this Friday, but performance may be a problem...

I really enjoy this game. The Live version is a lot more intense than the Extended play stuff.

Sweet! I have really enjoyed playing 1 vs 100 although recently, been kinda burned out from all the Extended Play. As if playing "Live" wasn't fun enough, now we get a chance to win stuff. Awesome. :)

Good news...I enjoy the game as well, but don't play enough to ever be in the mob or the one.

Maybe they at least got the scoring bugs worked out? You know, where there can be 5 questions and you can get them all correct and be at ~5000 points, but the top 3 are in the ~20,000 point range?

That would be nice if they have all the bugs ironed out.

I sure hope so! Otherwise my chances of winning might as well be zero!

I really like playing 1 vs. 100, but I'm getting a little annoyed with the random disconnects.

The article states that "Season 1" goes to the end of August for these prizes, but is this still Beta then or will we be able to get achievements as well starting Friday? Just wondering?

How do you get into a "live" match? I played a couple of extended demo's last night. Was OK, but 37-38 questions.

Look on the Primetime Channel in the Dashboard. The live games are usually only on weekends at night (start time depending on time zone).

Hopefully I am incorrect about this, but did anybody read the fine print on the last blade in the dashboard? there are several states ineligeable to receive prizes, mine being one of them (Maryland).

I think all states have their own laws regulating winning prizes while playing a game of chance, and each state also has their own definition of what a game of chance is.
