TPIR- What if this happened?

[quote name=\'clemon79\' date=\'Jan 27 2005, 04:03 PM\']You guys do realize that you're earnestly discussing a scenario which has about as much chance of happening as I do of bagging Alyssa Milano in the next hour*, right?

* Hey, why eliminate the possibility entirely?

I have a feeling you'll have to settle for Mindy Cohn, Chris.

I bet she's a freak.

(EDIT: Damn. He beat me to it.

ObGameShow: Well, no. Not really.

Charlotte Rae did do a week of both Syndie WLOD and the $otC83 Fame Game board.

Mindy Cohn did Teen week on Body Language, classic TV Weakest Link, plus a few other shows, but Lauri Hendler from Gimme a Break would be the chick to latch onto. She's only 40-ish and still as cute as then(though Mindy hasn't changed too much since FoL), or was in a pic I saw of her when she attended Nell Carter's memorial.

Thank you Zach.  I feel better for knowing that.

I told y'all bout making jokes around Zach.

As far as the piggy bank scenario goes, it might've been possible for it to display $0.xx back in the early days of TPIR.  Now, there seems to be an unwritten rule that piggy banks are no less than $3.  The highest concievable ammount is $9.87 while the lowest is $0.12.  I say $9.87 has a better chance of being displayed than $0.12 for such purposes.

Prices don't start with zero on TPIR, including the piggy bank, ever. I've seen a few players on Make Your Move try to start a price with zero, mind you. There was one recent playing of Any Number where there was one number remaining in each price for the last pick: the last number in the car price, and the first numbers in the price of the middle prize and the piggy bank. Zero was one of the numbers not yet chosen. Not picking the zero would have blown a free car for the contestant, not to mention gotten them a Misplay/Muh-Rone of the day award.

Leave it to this topic to deteriorate to Craig offering hypotheticals that he has no idea what he's talking about, and Zach offering hypotheticals that only he cares what he's talking about..

You two are meant for each other.

I assure you, the two Mah-rones in this thread are very well defined.

That would require a member of the opposite sex to get involved. I think we're okay.

I'm not. After picturing that, I need counseling.

Keep in mind that the arrow points to the exact point on the range finder, and the arrow is in the middle of the price display. If the botton line were the price, then half of the price display would be cut off.

I was watching a 1980 playing of the Range Game today on one of my tapes and the price doesn't start at the bottom of the green on the Range Game board -- so they could put the price at the very bottom without having the arrow be cut off.
