WOF on GSN 5/3 - something unusual

(1/2) > >>

BillCullen1:
On the 12:30 ET showing of WOF on GSN, something happened that I had not seen before. All three contestants missed the first toss up puzzle, which was "getting warmed up." Everything except the M was showing. Pat went on to the interviews. Then someone solved the next toss up, "Quiche Lorraine." I wondered what would happen in this case if they would have another puzzle. Since the first toss up doesn't determine who starts, they don't need to do another puzzle.

MikeK:
Play a new toss-up puzzle, edit out the unsolved one, throw up a disclaimer at the end of the show about a new puzzle being used.  Done.

TLEberle:
My understanding is that a dead-ball tossup returns the money to the prize budget and no replacement is deployed.

But the second toss-up is also for control.

I think in that case, they just automatically give the first spin of Round 1 to whoever is at the red arrow (like they did before toss-ups existed). (And in the case of no one getting the one before Round 4, control goes to whoever started Round 1).
