Game Format[]
Two families, made up of 5 contestants, compete to name the most popular answers to real survey questions that people from different parts of Mexico answered, in order to make money. The program began with the presentation of families, sitting opposite each other as if posing for family portraits, after which the driver interviewed them.
Each round begins with a face-to-face question that serves as a pitch between two opposing contestants. The driver asks a question from the survey that was previously raised to a group of 100 Mexicans. A certain number of responses are hidden on the board, ranked by popularity of survey responses. Only answers from at least two people can appear on the board. To win the right to answer, both contestants will hit the button and whoever first pressed the button will answer the question given by the driver; If you are number 1 or the most popular in the survey, your family immediately gains the right to continue responding. Otherwise, the opponent responds and the family member who provides the highest rank response takes control. If none of the contestants' answers are on the board, the other eight contestants have the opportunity to respond, one at a time from alternate sides, until an answer is revealed.
The family with control of the question tries to win the round by guessing all the remaining hidden answers, and each member gives a response in sequence. Giving an answer that is not on the board, or not responding within the allotted time, wins a "strike". If the family wins three strikes, their opponents have a chance to "steal" the points for the round by guessing any remaining hidden responses; Otherwise, the points are returned to the family that was originally in control. If opponents have a chance to "steal" the points, then only their team captain must answer the question. However, the team captain has the final decision to say what answer is given. Any remaining hidden responses on the board that have not been guessed are revealed at the end of the round.
While a family is in control of the round, members cannot discuss possible answers between them; Each person must respond individually. However, the opposing family may gather in preparation for an attempted robbery, and their captain must answer for them when such an attempt is made. This occurs when the family that carries the control scores two "strikes" and the driver asks them to prepare robbery.
The winning family in each round gets the total points for all revealed answers to that question, including those that were given during the matchup, and as the game progresses, the last two rounds are played for double or triple point value. The first family to score 300 points wins the game and is credited with $5000 MXN, and allowed her to play the mode known as "Rapido Dinero" (Quick Money), while the losing family received a consolation prize.
After the five rounds, if neither of the two families manages to accumulate 300 points, the so-called "Sudden Death" was used, in which the captains passed again to the button and the one who gave the most popular answer, he/she had the decision to pass the game to the opposing team or play among his team. If he/she chose to play, the opposing team would prepare to steal points immediately as it was played for a single "strike". The family that won the "Sudden Death" won the game and the $5000 MXN prize was awarded.
In Rapido Dinero (Quick Money), two members of the winning family play for a chance to win a cash bonus, which could amount to $125,000 MXN.
One contestant stays on stage with the driver, while the other hides in the so-called "silence booth" with headphones so he/she can't see or hear the first part of the game. The first contestant is asked five questions and has a limit of 15 seconds to answer them. The clock starts running after the driver asks the first question, and the first contestant can pass a question and return to it after all five questions have been asked, if there was time left.
After the first contestant has answered all five questions or time has run out, the driver asks them to hide the answers from the board, except the score, and then the second contestant is taken out to answer the same five questions. The same rules are followed, but the time limit extends to 20 seconds; Also, if the second contestant duplicates a response given by the first, a ringer rings and must give another answer. If the two contestants reach a combined total of 200 points or more, the family wins the $100,000 MXN bonus.
The winning family had the opportunity to participate up to 5 times in different programs, contesting in front of a new family to continue accumulating money. In the event that the champion family were defeated, after the second contestant of the champion family has given an answer with a lower score than the expected score, even though the survey's number 1 response was, the Rapido Dinero "quick money" was automatically taken away by the challenging family taking its place and the same process applied.
On February 3, 2004, when the show was expanded to a full-hour format, an extra element was added to the second "Dinero Rápido", "La canasta de tentación" ("the basket of temptation"), a basket full of items, attached to each of which is a flag saying one of the following:
- Buena suerte ("good luck"): Simply means "good luck" and has no other effect.
- $5,000: The family playing gains MX$5,000.
- Dinero Extra: The family earns MX$25 per point for a DR loss. Not used long.
- Puntos extra ("extra points"): The family gains anywhere from five to fifty extra points. It is only truly effective if the family's score is at least 150 points.
- El Doble ("the double"): The family plays for MX$200,000. They will still win an extra MX$25,000 if they give the top answer in each question.
