Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? (Magisteria)

'''Who Wants to be a Millionaire? '''is a Magisterian game show that is based on the British format of Who Wants to be a Millionaire?. The main goal of the game is to win 5 million Magisterian dollars (earlier 3 million) by answering 15 multiple-choice questions correctly. There are 5 lifelines: 50:50 (fifty-fifty), Phone-A-Friend, Ask the Audience, Switch and Double Dip. It airs every Sunday after Killer Karaoke (Magisteria). It is rated PG.

Gameplay
The contestants must first play a preliminary round, called "Fastest Finger First", where they are all given a question and four answers from the host and are asked to put those four answers into a particular order. The contestant who does so correctly and in the fastest time goes on to sit in a chair in the center of the set, known as the "Hot Seat", and play for the prize.

Once in the Hot Seat, the contestant is asked increasingly difficult general knowledge questions by the host. Questions are multiple choice: four possible answers are given (labeled A, B, C, and D), and the contestant must choose the correct one. Upon answering a question correctly, the contestant wins a certain amount of money. After questions, the host will ask the contestant "is that your final answer?" When a contestant says "final" in conjunction with one of the answers, it is official, and cannot be changed. For the first few questions, there is a possibility for the contestant to leave with no money if they  fail to reach the guaranteed amounts. There were 3 lifelines before 5.
