You really should try harder. That one didn't elicit any Snickers from me. :)

Maybe the prize should be 100 Grand then.
The countdown to 100 ended awhile ago, why are you still here?

If you got Elmer Fudd to host it, he could ask an amateur magician contestant, "How's twix?"

WITH THAT I WILL SAY THIS:

I have had many game show ideas, this one has always been my sketchiest (but I like it because its the first almost complete game show concept I came up) and yes, if I don't like my own game show concept, then that is very bad...

My opinion, if it would help its ratings... players can be paid in candybars, snickers, dollar bills, winston cigarettes... WHATEVER, IT DOESN'T MATTER TO ME!! ;)

The basic gist of the whole game show was for the players to guess the prize they were going to win. Exactly how to do it, and the other rules involved can be scratched out and edited however much necessary. I just thought it was interesting that on the price is right, contestants guess the price of prizes, so why not have a game show where they just try to guess the prize itself instead???

You hit the key word there.  It is TPiR just without people guessing prices.  It's To Tell The Truth without people.  It's not original.  It's boring.

Well, um, you could do a show where we guess how many unnecessary extra punctuation marks you're going to put after each sentence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How's that for an idea???????????????????????????

We could do a drinking game here, if nothing else (those under 21 need not apply).

In his defense, ever since I pointed it out to him, he seems to have cut down on that some. We should cut him some slack there.

It would be even more annoying if we didnt even use punctation at all Then all posts would be one big long runon sentence And IMO the English language is deteriorating enough as it is

Viva la punctation
