The game is set for 30 minutes. If you make it 60, here are the questions off the top of my head:
* Contestants: Do you add additional contestants? Do you allow for returning contestants? * Front game: How many items in a round? 6 in 20 or 7 in 30? Do you allow for timing to help break ties? * End game payout: How do you pay out? The old $10K/$25K? Additional levels? * New games: Do you create a new game? What do you use it for? The only game I can think of that moved from 30 to 60 minutes was TPIR in 1976. They created a new game (the showcase showdown) to sort out the winners from each "half" of the show.
