On the playing of Any Number earlier this week, with both the first digits of the second prize and the Piggy Bank blank along with the second digit of the car, and a 0 remaining as one of the three remaining choices, it was completely illogical for the contestant to not pick it, thus being blinded by the premise of the game, not just in terms of LFAT rules, but even simple situations. Thus, the term "unnecessary loss" was posted in the recap.
These are the other situations that I would see with other games:
Lucky $even: Having at least $5 remaining on the final digit, and guessing anything besides 5 that causes you to lose.
One Away: Having four out of the first five numbers right, with the exception of the first number, followed by changing one of the other numbers (e.g. $43,158 for a Ford Mustang, then changing the price to $41,158 instead of $23,158)
Money Game: If the last two numbers have been revealed and the only logical pick for the first two numbers remains (>$10,000 price difference between that and the next choice)
Secret X: Two of the X's are all placed on the same column on the corners while the third is placed on the middle row of the column on the opposite side, making it impossible to win.
Do you know any other similar games where such obvious choices would be passed by, resulting in similar back-door losses?
