Power of 10 / Power of Ten

There is also an article titled Power of Ten, about the same game show. The CBS website has "Power of 10" as the official title of the game. Should the other article be incorporated into this one, and a redirect put on the other page? Lauracs 02:21, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to Woohookitty for doing this. Lauracs 15:55, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How about comparing to other game shows if possible?

Anybody worth one penny already knows Drew Carey will be the next host ot The Price is Right. No need to rub it in y'all...

The Premise of the Show is Wrong

The premise of the entire show is wrong ... the title is based on the fact that "the prize money is going to increase by the power of 10". The prize values aren't increasing by the power of ten, but being multiplied by ten. Shouldn't this be included in the article? Lutherjw 03:58, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The show's premise seems OK to me. The prize amounts are all powers of 10: 1000, 10000, 100000, 1000000 and 10000000. In what way is the premise "wrong"? Chaz ^Beckett 11:57, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A quote from the first episode: "Starting with the $1000 question, every time you get a question right the dollar values are going to increase by the power of ten, all the way up to ten million dollars." If they increased by the power of ten each time, the second prize would be huge; much more than 10 million dollars. 65.162.59.80 14:31, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
