shuffle format is pretty flawed & unfair


i came to my senses that i don't like the majority randomness of guests getting 25k & 15k on the 1st two questions which encourages them to walk away too early & the lower valued questions does seem harder. it should've been structured for getting 100 1st then 500 on the 2nd question to add up to 600 so on.

so these contestants can stay in the game longer with that structure in mind & when they get the wrong answer they still get $1000

But it's not as much fun the old way. I think they did it this way based off of "Deal Or No Deal" with the briefcases. Besides, you'd still keep trying for the million even if you did get the three big amounts first.

I would like to see them go back to categories and have the money shuffled and allow the contestant to pick which category they want to answer and in what order.
