I dont really like it, but it does have its moments.

Today had a cruel compelling moment, with a woman down to 1p or £5000, she ended up with 1p.

She took it surprisingly well.

I find it interesting the way Noel the presenter distances himself from the responsibility of distancing people. He referred to the boxes being unkind to her or something, and the whole thing about a banker being the guy she is playing against, so he can be the good guy rooting for her, while most quiz shows are like you are playing against the presenter.

Still dont like it tho, and I'm pleased when simpsons appears.

deal or no deal pisses me off but I like watching it if that makes sense.

Logically it is a pile of shit but I like all the commoners on there trying to win some free money making stupid decisions and it rarely working but its funny when they say they have a system and end up with 10p in their box or something.

I also respect people when they say deal earlier on.

i have deal or no deal on my phone ... I love playing it .... but the money it offers is stupidly high!!!

I think in real life if you got offered >£30k mid-game then you would be a fool not to deal, the real game never does that, but the phone app often offers this sort of monies!!

still good fun though seeing how it goes from a really 'strong' looking board to complete mush and how other times people seem to luck out!! Thumbs Up

Sure it is all random, but it is down to the luck of the draw and the 'gameplay' is trying to psych the banker out and know when to deal ... or be brave!! Thumbs Up

No, they're pretty much above the rules. Razz

And their animations are subtle.

Never "got" it........I don;t know how the hell they stretch it out more than 5 mins, because if I was playing I'd just go "that one, that one, that one", the banker can chipr in when he wants, but all in all, since there is no strategy since all of the boxes are randomized, I honestly don't get it when they are pottering around for 5 minutes with their head in the hands deciding what to do.

Rules is rules.

...and the crime is still the same, regardless of subtlety.

...or is alright that 2 heavy weights are 'ok' because the rest of us DO stick with the rules.

Mmm.

There's a difference between some generic animated smiley and a photo that's subtly winking.

I quite like "Millionaire".
Dunno why, its just like, the questions aren't so pisspoor simple, apart from the first three qualifiers or so.

Although having said that, some of the no-brainer popular culture ones would have lost me £500 before now, LOL.

I have 'millionaire' on my phone ... I also have '1vs100'!! Cool


Problem with 1vs100 is there is a LOT of American general knowledge question ... not being a yank .. I tend not to know that many of them Embarassed
