Who's Still Standing?

Who's Still Standing: One player (the "Hero") attempts to defeat 10 competitors ("Strangers") in a series of trivia showdowns to win 100.00$. The Hero stands at center stage, with the 10 Strangers standing around the perimeter and facing in toward the Hero. Each participant stands on a trapdoor. The Hero challenges each Stranger, one by one, in an order selected by the Hero, in a head-to-head trivia battle. The host asks alternating questions, starting with the Stranger, with a series of partially filled-in blanks showing the words in the correct answer. The participant has 30 seconds to give the correct answer, starting from the moment the question appears. The answer must be given as spelled out in the puzzle. Multiple guesses are allowed, as long as the correct answer is given before time runs out.
When you won the trivia battle you earn different amounts of points ($ 1, $ 500, $ 1000, $ 2000, $ 5000). In level 7 you can leave the game winning half dollars or can continue. If you continue to get to level 10 and win $ 100,000.
