Only known one, I'm pretty sure. They are constantly coming up with new games and testing them at the contestant events. I've seen at least one that seems like a contender for that slot, when/if it is needed.

What was the premise of the game?

After seeing it in the summer activity guide download, I thought Extreme Nutstacker was impossible enough for a $1M challenge.  It surprised the heck out of me last week that Aaron actually managed to pull it off for $500K... heck, it surprised the heck out of me that he even got as close as he did on his first attempt.

They have different levels of each game for various cash prizes. I've seen Nutstacker at a lower cash level that involved fewer nuts as well as a stable on-the-floor table.

Yep...same with Hanky Panky (the one where you empty a tissue box with one hand....wow, that sounds bad). They have a tougher variant this season where you empty two tissue boxes simultaneously, one with each hand.

I'd have to believe that after revealing Supercoin as the Million Dollar Game last season, then using it this season for the Million Dollar Mission, they've conjured up AT LEAST one new MDG of the 25+ games they've added to the mix.

Lord, I hate all the "cutesy/naughty" names they saddle these games with.

See, that's kinda part of the fun for me. There are precisely two things I enjoy watching on that show: 1) the actual gameplay, and 2) the little videos.) Still lets me bang out a show in fifteen minutes. :)

What, you think "The Nutcracker" is more appropriate? Besides, you are stacking hexagonal nuts. It's only naughty if you mind thinks that way.
