Contestants named for "Celebrity Mole"

**John** · 12-18-2002, 01:40 PM

Um, one person secretly works for the production crew, as "The Mole", trying to sabotage everyone else.

The people perform challenges, both individually and as a team or in pairs, each worth some amount of money. If they complete the challenge, they get the money - if not, they don't. So, the Mole is trying to keep them from getting money, but has to do it subtly.

Each episode, there's a quiz. It's a 20-question quiz with questions like "where was the Mole sitting at dinner tonight?" or "Is the Mole male or female?"

The person each week who gets the least number correct is eliminated. If two people tie, then it goes to who answered the questions fastest.

But in this Celebrity edition, there are no eliminations...

So as you can imagine, anyone who fails a challenge, or drags their butt, or anything, is perceived to be the Mole.

No eliminations? Does anyone "win" then? Are they pretty much just playing 20 questions and looking nice?

Hmmmm, another example of concessions being made to celebritites.

How do we know there are no eliminations? The article says no "vote-offs," but that is technically different than an elimination....

Hmmm, good point Kylie.
There never are any votes offs in the Mole.
The closest was when Elavia was voted least liked and chose to take $50,000 to leave the show.
The others didn't know she would be made that offer though.

Exactly, Fluff. I thought the article meant since the other celebs had no control over who was to be booted, it wouldn't hurt anyone's precious egos by making them think they were disliked.

I don't think the Mole format would work as well without eliminations.

Hmm, you're right, there is a difference. Maybe there are eliminations. I've been known to VERY RARELY be wrong

still, nobody has told me who kim coles is?

**fluff** · 01-12-2003, 01:07 PM

I hadn't heard of her before she was on this show.
There's a thread for her here though so you can look there to find out about her.
