1 vs 100

13-07-2009, 20:56

Played 1 vs 100 (beta vesion) last friday on xbox live (available to gold subscribers only) and I have to say it was great! Once its fully up and running you have the chance of winning some great prizes including upto 10K worth of Microsoft points and if you're really good and get selected as 'the one' plasma tv's and the like are the prizes... even if you don't win its looking like a great way of spending a couple of hours with mates online or friends/family at home (beers and wine) on friday/saturday evenings.

Just spent an hour on there myself (where were you m8) - did OK but some of the questions

Unfortunately the only session today was labelled 'Super Hard'
Got quite into it.

I wanted to have a go at this, but my xbox is deaded

I want to have a go at this, but it would mean renewing my Gold subscription.

Still, Battlefield 1943 looks good too. Maybe I'd get some use out of Gold this time.

I playd it Friday and also tonight with a few mates. Great fun, and cant wait till the prizes start

I'm in the same situation. Really wouldn't mind playing this but as I dont really use my Xbox online it would not be worth me paying for the gold live Sub just for this

I ended up buying a 1 month Gold card online last night. I'll top it up with a 12 month one when I can find one cheap at a reputable seller.

My Gold sub expired in March, & at the time I couldn't be bothered renewing it (plus I wanted to remove my credit card). Had been meaning to resubscribe at some point, & this and BF1943 have given me the urge to finally do so. I really should give Gears 2 / Halo 3 a go online too.

Had a couple of games of 1vs100 earlier this evening - quite good fun (apart from the sport questions). Will be good when the real ones start.

I haven't done this yet - looks like i should before my subs run out. Though I've got another 12month pre-pay code purchased ready for any games that I might fancy playing online...still playing COD4 online occasionally.

i play this on the ds, very fun and addictive.

Just seen this notice on Xbox.com - Free 1vs100 for Silver this weekend

So anyone wavering over renewing Live can try for free.

Not on for the 'super hard' quiz as I'd be a bit of a

One question though about connecting to the game, anyone else get the 'STRICT NAT' message? We have two xbox360's connecting in our home usually at the same time, just depends who connects first to xboxlive as the second connection (both wireless) always comes up with the NAT warning message. Any ideas how to get the NAT to show OPEN for both?

Aragorn · 16-07-2009, 18:21

Not surprised it has problems - as far as XBL is concerned there will be two 360's on the same Virgin IP address. The first one will open the uPNP ports to itself correctly, but the second can't because the router can only forward to one internal IP.
Can't think of anyway you could get both working OPEN while sharing the same external IP.

**Matt D** · 16-07-2009, 21:08

Some routers can handle 2 or more 360s without issue, from what I remember reading on other forums about similar problems.

No idea *which* routers though, but it is possible.

I played a game of this earlier, it was really addictive. There were some easy questions and some really hard. It was awesome! Someone had a 40m total score, that must be either someone who doesn't get off the game.

It would be good to get in the Mob rather than stuck in the crowd.
As far as I can see, to stand a chance of winning stuff you need to play a lot of the harder extended play in the week (and do well) so your weekly stats are good for the main weekend shows.
Still good fun.
