I haven't played 1 vs 100 in weeks and tonight was the final episode of the beta from 8PM to 10PM EST. I get on at about 9:20 PM and I get selected for the mob in the next round that started up after the round I joined. Yay! I haven't been in the mob since the beta started.

A few questions in, the question is the name of of Beach Boys album. I correctly guess by process of elimination "Pet Sounds". About 50 members of the mob get wiped out and I'm thinking, "Yes! I may actually get a win." A few more questions later and the question is, "How is the Hulk related to the She-Hulk?"

X) Siblings
A) Cousins
B) They aren't

My first instinct is A) Cousins but then I let that little voice in side my head say, "It's a trap! They aren't!" and end up answering B....which is incorrect. Noooooooooooo!

The One answered it wrong too so I would have won some prized if I had just went with my first instinct. ARRRRGH

Haha that sucks! I've never had the chance to be in the Mob. Probably because I'm not very good. I think I only average like 70% correct.

I played the other day and thought I was in the mob, maybe I'm incorrect though. How can you tell? I was one of the "eliminated" when I got it wrong (so it was one vs. x - 1 with me gone).

There are a couple of ways.
1) When the round starts, it will say if you are in the Crowd or the Mob.
2) The background on your name/score will be a different color (blue) when you are in the Mob.
3) Your avatar won't be in the crowd with the other people in your group.
4) Your avatar will show up with the rest of the mob.

How can you not know that? Pet Sounds is only considered one of the best albums ever. :p

Sucks you missed the Hulk Q though. :)

Yep. Extended play is still going for the next couple of weeks and the Prize Play is supposed to come back later in September/October. No word on if they are charging or not. Personally, I think they should just charge Silver members to play.

I'm not as familiar with the album names as I am with the songs. :p At least I got it right. :)

I was in the mob, my first time to play 1 vs 100, my first round to ever play. So being a 1 vs 100 virgin (I had never watched the show either) I had no idea what I was doing. I got a question wrong fairly fast, and realized a while later that it was my one chance and I blew it.

It says Mob or crowd when the round first starts
The other way is look at the background at the top of the screen just below your name; lines = crowd , dots = mob

My wife and I had been playing together using just my login for a while. A few weeks ago I finally talked her into making you own (still had a couple free month trials) so we could both play.

The last couple of weekends she wound up in the Mob about 3 times. Only won once though for a copy of the game (Poker something I think based on what it was showing on the in game screens) and it flashed up 400 pts also.
