Concept: Increase points when you are sure you are right, with risk.

This could very easily be implemented as a Countdown type game. Format is the same as in Countdown, but when you are sure of your entered answer, press the Gamebreaker button ala QB1 (#8 I believe). This doubles your points, but also precludes you from changing your answer (the "Lock it" part).

I think it would be a blast.

Cool idea, but I'd also add a -250 penalty for flubbing a "locked" answer.
