=== The Script ===
This game is a learning exercise for Stacks & Queues in a CS2 level class. The questions are kept at an abstract level.<br />
It is based on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire! The only difference is that our game allows for competition between groups<br />
composed of three or less students, but the final Million Dollar Question is a collaborative effort amongst all groups.<br />
If the Million Dollar Question is answered correctly, then Dr. Gehringer has to pay up.<br />
The Process:
Step 1: The class divides into groups of three consisting of people from the same row.<br />
Step 2: When the game starts the last row is called upon for question #1.<br />
*:Every group from this row is allowed to raise their hand, whoever raises their hand<br />
*:first gets to answer the question.<br />
Step 3: After each question is attempted (answered right or wrong), the next row's groups compete to answer the next question.<br />
