They had a very interesting situation last night. It was winner take all for $25K. They keep asking multiple choice questions until one player is remaining. With two players left they both either answered correctly or both incorrect until they reach a certain amount of questions and then it is declared a tied and the money rolled over to next Sunday. With the last question one player answered incorrectly but the other player was locked out and never submitted an answer. He was kicked off for violating TOS. He might have been using a jailbroken phone where he was using a program to answer the questions in the ten second time frame.
