** On the NBC version, contestants playing as The One were one-and-done, while Mob members were able to stay on the Mob and continue earning money until they were eliminated by incorrectly answering a question, at which point they were replaced.
** During Live shows on the Xbox Live version, players could be in The Mob for up to one game per episode, and play as The One just once per season.
** The GSN version again has one-and-done appearances for The One, though this time anybody participating in The Mob did so throughout the entire season, even if eliminated.

The American version ran for two seasons, ending in 2008. In 2009, Microsoft revived the show in a unique way; as an UsefulNotes/XboxLive game through a twice-weekly primetime event for all Gold members. The One and Mob remained unchanged, while the game allowed the crowd (anyone playing the game who was neither the One nor a member of the Mob) to also answer questions; the top three scorers of the round got a free Xbox Live Arcade game (no small feat, as there could be up to several ''thousand'' people in the crowd at any time). Selection for being the One or a Mob member depended on a score, and the game was played for Microsoft Points using the last NBC format.

GameShow which originated in the Netherlands and has been exported to over 30 countries, with the American version originally airing on Creator/{{NBC}}. In this game, one player (the One) plays against 100 other people (the Mob). The players are asked a series of questions; if the One correctly guesses, he moves on to the next question, while all Mob members who answered incorrectly are knocked out. The goal of the One is to answer as many questions as it takes to knock out all of the Mob. If the One answers a question incorrectly, the game ends and (in some versions) the prize money is distributed amongst any remaining Mob members.

** In the first Xbox Live season, Trust the Brain allowed The One to lock in the answer given by the player with the highest score during the round at that time. Given that this Help used only one person for its effect, its use was very unreliable, and could go horribly wrong if used on a question that the leader simply didn't know. Come the next season, the Help was changed to Trust the Top 10, which significantly improved its usefulness.

* BalanceBuff: The second Xbox Live season made tweaks to the Trust the Brain Help, and the Skips available in Extended Play.
** In the first Xbox Live season, Trust the Brain allowed The One to lock in the answer given by the player with the highest score during the round at that time. Given that this Help used only one person for its effect, its use was very unreliable, and could go horribly wrong if used on a question that the leader simply didn't know. Come the next season, the Help was changed to Trust the Top 10, which significantly improved its usefulness.
** The Skips available in Extended Play, earned by getting three correct answers in a row, allowed you to pass on answering the current question to preserve your current streak... and that's ''all'' it did. No points would be given for the current question, which would put a massive dent into a player's potential score, especially if they had a high streak, so Skips would often end up being unused. The next season changed them to Safeties, which instead automatically gave you the correct answer and the points for it, albeit without any speed bonuses.
