My educated guess is - his webhosting has a service cap, it's late in the month, his site has become newly popular and hit that cap.  Rather than paying for more service, it's offline for the next week or so.

I know nothing about webhosting costs, but that sounds like a reasonable explanation

The Big Board / Stu's Show May 22, 2024 (Steve and Wesley as guests)
« Last post by Bob Zager on Today at 12:32:25 PM »
I missed most of the broadcast, but I wondered if anybody heard the entire interview, particularly if there was even a brief mention about Wes' forthcoming book about WOF (how it's progressing, that is)?

The Big Board / Re: Paul Walter Hauser to star in "Press Your Luck" movie
« Last post by Bob Zager on Today at 12:27:02 PM »
I just found out, in People magazine, that Hauser is also cast to play Chris Farley in a movie about the late SNL regular.  If that was mentioned before, sorry to repeat.

The block starting at noon is the celebration of National Game Show Day all month, no? I'd expect that block to change through the end of June.
I have a hunch we'll see Concentration pop back up too.

Isn't that because on the current version, the names that need to be conveyed are usually just a first or last name? Name categories aren't nearly as intimidating when you only have to get your partner to say ANGELINA or SPEARS.

And to that end, when the answers are all last names, it's as simple as leading with the first name.

I'm 100% not complaining about anything that is going on right now.  I like a good rotisserie.

Yeah, but if it's from fear to commit to a schedule, it's rotisserie chicken.

As long as they're not scheduling rotisseries over and over:

Funny you mention the names category, because to my untrained eye it seemed like teams on Strahan Pyramid didn't struggle with names to nearly the degree that folks in the '80s did. Maybe it's because the names used in the '80s could be rather arcane (Rona Barrett leaps to mind) or that teams weren't regularly going 21-for-21 anyway so the names category didn't impact the scores to the same degree, but either way teams didn't seem to get tripped up by names in the modern version as much.
