1 vs. 100 'Season Pass' was a test photo

Those of you worried that Xbox LIVE Primetime show 1 vs. 100 could turn into a paid seasonal download should be: Microsoft recently responded to questions about the mysterious “Season Pass” downloadable option by stating that it was “simply a test, and we have no further details to share at this time.”

"Xbox 360 has created an entirely new genre of massively multiplayer entertainment,” a Microsoft representative told Kotaku. “We are hosting the '1 vs 100' beta so we can perfect the experience, and try new features and content.

"The Season Pass option that people have seen in the '1 vs 100' menu is simply a test, and we have no further details to share at this time."

The option to download a “Season Pass” was available to players a few nights ago. After downloading, the content granted access to something called “1 vs. 100 Show GB.” Error messages greeted those who tried to play the unannounced content.

We still don’t know what “1 vs. 100 Show GB” is and we likely won’t know until Microsoft is ready to address what users saw and downloaded. So, while we wait, let’s talk about something more important: the cuteness of my cat.

Top American game show champions have participated in the shows. In the first two episodes, legendary 74-time Jeopardy! champion Ken Jennings was prominently featured. He was seated at podium number thirteen during the premiere episode. Jennings was part of the first mob to defeat a contestant, winning about $700, before being eliminated on the question, "What color is the number 1 on a roulette wheel"? Jennings guessed black, but the answer was red. The man who defeated Jennings in the Jeopardy! Ultimate Tournament of Champions, Brad Rutter, joined the mob for episode 6, staying for more episodes, but was unable to defeat a contestant. Champions from Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Nancy Christy, John Carpenter, and Kevin Olmstead were in another episode. All three were eliminated on one question, and won nothing. This is amazing playing a game and win instantly, no need to lend to a payday loan to have money.

Wait, simply a test of what? Whether or not people react really negatively?

By test they mean "we still can't figure out what you nerds want so we're just gonna keep pulling chains until the most profitable angle is gained".
