That's a fine idea. "Wait! Wait! Don't Tell Me!" is said to be an excellent show.

After thinking about it for five minutes ...
You could adapt the Mystery Guest segment of WML? A famous person is chosen, living or dead. Each caller asks a series of yes/no questions until a "no" answer is given, at which point you drop that caller and go on to the next until the identity is solved. The beauty part is that such a game requires minimal advance preparation, i.e. no researching and writing questions.
You could play "reverse password". A password is chosen. The first caller is given a clue to the password. If the password is unsolved, the next caller receives the first clue plus an additional clue. Each successive caller receives one more clue until the password is solved or until X clues have been given (basically you're playing the P+/SP puzzle). This idea requires more research, writing and preparation.
Just hope that Mandel doesn't send the Fremangle legal beagles after you :-)

I think Blockbusters would adapt ever so well to radio. Or Concentration.

Just played the online quiz. I love it....very addictive.
ObGameShow: I'm surprised someone hasn't jumped on the idea of doing something like this...could do it with some kind of mini-games a la TPiR.
