Synopsis
The concept is simple. Six players are given several interesting, yet light topics to debate about. The debate time is 30 minutes, with the topic changing several times throughout. The jackpot accumulates at $1.00 per second, with the last man standing taking home the entire jackpot.
As the players debate, an audience looks on in a separate room and votes in real-time on whose opinion they support. After time has ran out in the hour glass, the person with the lowest audience rating is escorted off the set. The next theme is given, and the clock begins ticking again as the debate continues.
