I think they should increase it so it's easier to get.

I suppose for the same reason there should be two $10,000 spots on Plinko as well, then?  Or three $25,000 slips in Punch-A-Bunch?  Or seven prizes for Grand Game, find four of the five correct ones for the jackpot? :roll:

I could go on.  Hopefully you see why your reasoning fails.

Let's just make Triple Play be played for three pairs of Murcielagos, shall we? No, I think we both know that there's a budget, one that isn't too high right now... or at least I do, we don't need the budget blowing up.

The budget has not significantly changed...just how it's handled is.

No, the DSW amount should not be increased.

Or three $25,000 slips in Punch-A-Bunch?

I actually think two would suffice...it's still darn near impossible to win the game....

Doesn't matter how many top money slips you put on if you put them in places that aren't likely to get chosen.

0 for 78 should be setting off alarm bells for somebody.

It's been established that there are staffers who are assigned to read Golden-Road.  I doubt Mike does it himself, but I'd imagine there have been discussions he's heard about in the last three years.

Maybe he does just so he can continue to make us angry on things we don't like (e.g. Losses, 365 pairs of shoes, Tripcases, etc..)

^That would readily fit the description of a "troll"...although I feel like I have suggested this once before.
The above is my opinion and mine alone.

To answer your questions: yes, I am a guy and yes, I have a face. (I also have the occasional spurt of weirdness.)
