FULL RECAP - TPiR 09/30/2009 - Show B

[Briguy]

Again, why do contestants who play Ten Chances have to try every possibility, starting from lowest to highest? Knowing that zero has ALWAYS been the last number since at least forever.

This kind of play would have been more understandable in the mid-to-late 1970s when the game was first new and zero wasn't always the first number — or even necessarily included in the jumble. Yes, I'm sure Lisa did the best she could, but still, ignoring the "zero rule" always comes back to haunt you, as it did once again.

The "10 seconds" rule needs to be re-enforced, with time allowed only for the contestant to review his/her other previous incorrect guesses and NOT to consult with the know-nothing audience. C'mon, get with the game, TPiR folks!
