Yea team

Our boss was on the Bulgarian version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire and we put together a team of Netagers to help him out in the competition.

We practiced for a while last night. He would call and pretend to be the show hosts and then pretend to be himself under pressure and then ask us questions and then we would try to find the answer online. We split up in groups. At each computer station we positioned two people: one to do the actual searching and one to help them browse through search results. We pushed the desks together and cranked up the volume on the speaker phone and appointed a timer. We came up with search strategies, which I am not giving away. We then agreed to meet up at 9AM and be ready to take calls from the show.

At around 10 AM this morning we got the call. We were asked a 100,000 leva question: Which actor collaborated with Oasis on their Be There Now video? We found the correct answer in just under 10 seconds. It was Johnny Depp. Everyone was screaming with excitement and I thought the roof was going to fall in on us. Too bad that Boss had already made a mistake on the question and they were only calling to see if our “brain-trust” would work. Of course it would.

Who cares about winning massive amounts of money on a silly TV show when you can have so much fun losing it with the full support of your own firm?! Yea team.
