There's going to be a syndie DoND -- that's my feeling.

I'm, of course, all for it; it's just going to be how NBCU alters the game to fit a syndie version (i.e. getting rid of the models and replacing contestants, cutting number of briefcases down, etc.) which will keep the show in a better place to survive.

In other words -- they need to adapt parts to the Noel version. :)

EDIT:  Not that the Aussie version would be bad, either, but the whole nighttime US has been based more on drama then fast play, which is from what I've seen the Aussie version is based on.  The only thing that the US draws off the Aussie is the amount of the audience seated.

I dunno, but being a straight guy, I have no objection whatsoever to that eye candy!

I wonder if anyone has kept track of which model has had the most money in her cases over the course of the show?

Oh, no, you don't!!!  Zach, don't even bother.

If it's all as random as Howie says it is there should be no partiuclar "lucky" model.

Have they even been the same models?  Seems to me that some new ones appeared when the show returned, and I can't be sure there haven't even been changes since the show returned a couple weeks ago.

In a bigger sense, there probably would be some interest in the statistics over the long run on a show like this.   Not necessarily where the cases were located, but average bank offers, winnings, stuff like that.
This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.
Stay tuned for all the obsessive-compulsive fun of Words Have Meanings.

I know some folks were keeping track in December, I don't know if they have been vigilant about this since they picked back up.

This early in the show's run, it's actually pretty likely that there are some notable outliers. That doesn't mean a thing re: luck, of course.

Oh, and nothing against having models, but as another straight man, they hardly register at all when I'm watching the show. I'm just weird about 26 ladies all with the same waist, the same outfit, and the same gobs of makeup, I guess.

What's wrong, Chris?  Don't you remember Stacey on Lingo?

[quote name=\'adamjk\' date=\'Jul 10 2004, 10:25 PM\']She makes the game run faster, since she can look up questionable words quickly, and determine whether or not they are real words. It took longer to do this before she got here.

Now don't make me remind you of the chocolate syrup, pineapple rings and Jiffy-Pop.  Oops, too late. :-)

I vote that for line of the year. I don't care that it's from 2004. It still beats anything witch contributes.

That much I knew already, but we're on spring break here, and I really DON'T feel like getting into a stats lesson right now.

I never did get around to naming a Chris Lemon Award winnner for 2004, so we'll make it retroactive here.

And to Jimmy Owen, did you check Klauss's site?
