The Perfect 36

The $3,600,000 grand prize for 36 correct answers in a row across paid-entry contests, free to opt in to, paid as a thirty-year annuity.

Also called: Perfect 36

What the Perfect 36 is

The Perfect 36 is Speed Survivor's grand prize: $3,600,000 for thirty-six correct answers in a row across paid-entry contests. With twelve questions per game, that is three full games without a single miss.

The Perfect 36 grand prize is $3,600,000 paid as a thirty-year annuity of $120,000 a year, which is its total value and not its present cash value.

Opting in is free and happens once. After that, every question you answer in a paid-entry contest counts toward your run. The three games do not have to be on one weekend. Code SPEED at sign-up makes sure the opt-in is on from your first game.

An example

A hypothetical player opts in and enters a paid contest on a Thursday night game. They answer all twelve questions correctly: a run of twelve. The following Sunday they enter another paid contest and go twelve for twelve again, a run of twenty-four. On Monday night they answer the first eleven correctly and miss the twelfth. The run resets to zero, and the next correct answer starts a new one.

How it is paid

The prize is paid as a prize annuity: thirty yearly payments of $120,000. The $3,600,000 figure is the total of those payments, not a lump sum and not its present cash value.

In Speed Survivor

The Perfect 36 runs alongside your contests rather than instead of them. Every paid contest you play still has its own leaderboard and payouts; the run is tracked across them. Questions in free contests do not count toward it. Full rules are at app.speedsurvivor.com/perfect-36-rules, and how it works covers where the Perfect 36 fits in the game.
