Take into consideration I am a newbie in flash.How hard would it be to make a Jeopardy game in flash?
Hey, I know very little about flash, just basic website menu techniques, but I did find this forum thread that looked quite helpful.

I don't think the actual mechanics would be that hard. Use mouse actions to select categories and dollar amounts, assign each player a key and allow the faster player to pose the question, use straightforward arithmetic functions to tally scores. In effect, the gameplay would be pretty easy. Your real challenge would be the actual questions: writing and researching facts, making them challenging at the right level, and hardest of all, coming up with a routine to accept certain answers. Should you accept misspellings? How close to the real answer are you willing to accept as correct? There will be questions about the vagueness of terminology and language that will need to be taken into account. Would Roosevelt be acceptable as an answer to 'he was the only president to serve more than two terms' without specifying either Franklin or Teddy? Those kinds of judgement calls can ruin a game if done wrong, even if the look and feel of the game is spot on.
