What To Do When Price Is Not On(In Terms Of Interruption And/Or Lengthy Special Reports)?
« on: December 29, 2006, 10:23:12 PM »
I would like to know from everyone what you guys do when TPIR is either interrupted or cut off completely due to special reports? Do you watch what's going on or do you something else completely. Me I do a combination of both yet I prefer something like playing with my cards than watch what the report is.

Well, I usually do two things when "Price" is interrupted:

1. Tell some wild stories in Daytime Chat

2. Go study for the next exam... :-(

Typically, we play "Deal or No Deal" in Daytime Chat during pre-emptions and reruns.  Various people (myself included) have hosted, but heels is always "The Banker".

If anybody here is interested in a game of DOND on New Year's Day (Monday) at 11 AM Eastern, let me know.  :-)

Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

I change the channel, unless it's some MAJOR breaking news, which, 90% of the time, it isn't...and I'd imagine about 90% of the people either change the channel or "get up and do something else for a while."  It is just common sense to me.  Think about it.  Everyone watching CBS at that time is tuned in to see Price is Right, not some news report.  When news comes on, the channel gets changed.  If I wanted news, I'd have watched a news channel.

Oh, come now, Carlos...everyone knows the proper phrasing is, "mute the TV and go to do something else for a few minutes."

Better yet, this is what I would do to my TV if "Price" was interrupted:

This one's easy!  Switch over to Password Plus and if need be, $100,000 Pyramid.  Then, keep checking to see if Price is back on!

I just fool around, keep an eye on the daytime chat (to be sure the lil' twerps stay in line  :-D ), and just browse the internet (or try to sell something on EBay *cough*look-for-stuff-from-snorlax4280-more-goodies-other-than-old-Pokemon-cards-coming-soon*cough*, talk with a good friend of mine on MySpace, or something).

As for Bully's idea....do it only when the Prez is babbling his head off.  :lol:
