Question - as there was no "Come On Down" as such in this version, was there any way the players being selected from the audience contributed to the proceedings? Was it even mentioned outside of the opening speil?

 No, they were just contestants, selected like any other contestants of the day were. They were already seated behind the contestant desk when the show started.

The one thing I find interesting is that every bid had to be HIGHER than the one before. Of course, they played multiple rounds of bidding, but you didn't find anyone going back and bidding a dollar because they thought the others were too high.

Were all contestants of the day taken out of the audience?

It happened from time to time. Contestants were allowed to "underbid" the first time around the block, if they felt an opponent started the bidding too high.

My favorite ep was the one where they gave away "The Thinker."  "Gosh, Bill that sure would look good next to the fireplace. My wife is really gonna like that. Gosh, that sure is nice."
