Multiple-choice maniacs will be able to play the new season of 1 vs 100 on a daily basis through themed Extended Play sessions every night, including "Finish the Lyrics," "80's" night and -- yes, we're totally serious -- "Vampires." Finally, a theme night your 12-year-old sister can get behind!

Great.. I haven't seen Twilight. So much for a high score.
Ghede @ Nov 9th 2009 11:02AM
1st: Great name.
2nd: If it is anything like the last season, you can pad your score with the hourly, non-themed games. It is based on lifetime score and all. Only people who could get as close as possible to the maximum season score are playing in shifts, or robots.

Thanks man

Or are playing from a bar or office or some other big grouped place.. Then at least 1 person knows the correct answer.

Its sad we live in a world now that when Vampires are brought up, peoples think of 12 year old girls. Remember when Vampires were cool?
cafecito @ Nov 9th 2009 10:55AM
Yeah, I remember. Then, Twilight happened.
Dirty @ Nov 9th 2009 10:56AM
Women find vampires sexy. This is nothing new. Remember all those Anne Rice novels. Shit Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise were cast to be vampires in the same movie.
This is just re-branded for teenagers and tweens. Big deal.
Look at it this way at least in 6+ years you can still get laid at a Halloween party dressed as a vampire.
MystileArmor @ Nov 9th 2009 11:01AM
I'm pretty sure in 6+ years they will have moved away from vampires and will have marketed zombies towards the tweens.
Zombies that are undead cause that's the most emo thing ever!

I was in a Target the other day and walked by the Youth book section. Just a sea of black covers with the occasional red markings to indicate yet another vampire series. They should just rename the section to Vampire Books and be done with it.

not gonna lie i still think True Blood is the best show on HBO
Samuel Vimes @ Nov 9th 2009 11:36AM
@BigDonny09
True Blood is good. But it's also not all fluffy like Twilight.
MLS @ Nov 9th 2009 12:04PM
Curb is the best show on HBO. Come on, no contest.
whylekat @ Nov 9th 2009 12:06PM
Buffy the Vampire Slayer starring Kristy Swanson is the best vampire movie ever! Ya know why? Because of her "keen fasion sense!" *torches pee-wee Herman with hair spray*
Amazing!
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 9th 2009 12:12PM
Indeed. Larry David will win any argument. Seinfeld is still the best show ever.

I remember when Vampires talked like pimps, wore capes, turned into bats, lived in castles.
I find it a good thing that these horror genres are progressing, if Zombies weren't able to run we wouldn't have a fun game like L4D.
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 9th 2009 10:44AM
Vampires=Dracula, Harker, etc. They do not sparkle/look emo or angsty/star in stupid films.
Vcize @ Nov 9th 2009 11:25AM
Aha! So you've seen it! How else would you know hey sparkle?
Zing @ Nov 9th 2009 11:32AM
I would love to know where you're getting this information, everything i know about vampires is from from works of fiction.
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 9th 2009 12:01PM
It's a long story. It involves me being told by my mother that if I wanted to take the truck to college, I had to escort my sister and her friends to this stupid movie.
Twenty minutes in, I pulled out my iPod and turned on Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Best film ever.
Vcize @ Nov 9th 2009 1:42PM
But 20 minutes in there were no sparkles. Aha! The web of lies grows...

"Twenty minutes in, I pulled out my iPod and turned on Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Best film ever."
Best thing I've read all day.
Smoke_me_a_Kipper @ Nov 9th 2009 10:54AM
I was starting to think you need to be a vampire, avatar wise to be The One. At least until I managed to get it during the preview. The set has changed BTW and The One walks down to the podium.
Patman @ Nov 9th 2009 10:57AM
Vampires= lust blood and gore, true vampires drink blood of humans not no twilight vegetarian vampire garbage i pity those who see it just because of all the rage
Vcize @ Nov 9th 2009 11:27AM
Like.....you?
WiNG [XBL&Steam: WiNGSPANTT] from lifeinagame.com @ Nov 9th 2009 10:59AM
Vampires vampires vampires.
Can we move on to the next thing? ...Please?
uncle jesse @ Nov 9th 2009 11:35AM
Werewolves.
There is a new Wolfman film coming out and the new Twilight movie is all about teenaged, buff, shirtless werewolves... just like you remembered them.
Dirty @ Nov 9th 2009 12:04PM
Sounds about right, all I can remember is Teen Wolf.
Zoot Suit Jedi @ Nov 9th 2009 12:13PM
Twilight 2: Tweenwolf?
uncle jesse @ Nov 9th 2009 12:35PM
Teen Wolf showed me that becoming a werewolf meant you could buy booze when you're underage and give you the ability to 'car surf' and play basketball.
Darth Pedo @ Nov 9th 2009 11:00AM
They were talking about starting to charge for it at the end of the first "season". Any word on a cost?
ShadowXOR @ Nov 9th 2009 11:02AM
When was the first season???
I was in the beta from day one and but lost interest and never heard the real season for real prizes actually started....
Martin @ Nov 9th 2009 11:15AM
They started to give out prizes near the end of the beta, but I agree. There never was a very clear delineation that I saw between Beta and Season 1.
MLS @ Nov 9th 2009 11:04AM
will it be free?
will there be more creative attempts to get me into the mob/one or give me more to do as part of the crowd?
if the answer to either of those are no - not interested.

The only Vampire that still keeps it real is Count von Count.

Oh. My. God.
K387 @ Nov 9th 2009 11:28AM
Surprised more people aren't talking about the actual game. Personally, a pure score means that there will be a handful of people who are in the mob/the One unless they put some kind of block after you've won/been part of the Mob. I remember from the beta people being "impossibly" fast on their answers and seeing the same people whenever I played.
So there are my concerns.
pibs @ Nov 9th 2009 3:40PM
I just want achievements, the game is fun as it is even though its impossible to be in the Mob. Last season I got in the Mob, MS somehow screwed up their servers and I ended up in the Canadian 1vs100 and hardly anyone was playing.

Now that if a vampire flick where everbody gets laid.
Mr.Realistic @ Nov 9th 2009 12:51PM
That's such bullshit. If I wanted to be "The One" I am forced to spend my entire day playing quizzes. It should be selected at random, to give everyone equal opportunity.
SirDonShetland @ Nov 9th 2009 1:42PM
is this free again or do we have to pay this time around?
xGearSecondx @ Nov 9th 2009 3:26PM
Ha! Alright! Can't wait, I had some fun times with my friends on 1 vs 100 :D More to come
xGearSecondx @ Nov 9th 2009 3:28PM
Also, what the hell do girls find so "dreamy" and "attractive" about some damn emo vampires anyways??
uncle jesse @ Nov 9th 2009 3:56PM
All of this talk just makes me realize how far ahead of it's time Monster Squad was.
atx1980 @ Nov 10th 2009 9:06PM
Were is 1vs100! Its gone there is no primetime channel any more?
