Does Bob Dislike any games

<< < (2/8) > >>

JayC:
Super Saver was also retired because Bob was tired of explaining it's rules.

If only Joker, Pick a Number, and Poker Game were as complicated....

 Not true.

Something was explained wrong in the rules, it became an S&P issue, and it wasn't worth the hassle.

 I can't imagine him liking "I don't know how to play the Check Game but everyone in the damn audience does" very much.

 And I believe Bullseye I and Double Digits BOTH had complicated rules.

SplitSecond:
Bullseye I was just as complicated as Clock Game is.  It just wasn't won nearly as often.

Double Digits wasn't necessarily complicated - it was just not intuitive at all.  Temptation makes far better use of the concept of the digits in the price of a smaller prize corresponding to the digits in the price of a car.

It's fun to see innocuous conjecture and internet folklore being passed off as fact throughout the thread, though.
