DANGER PRICE: Talk about the world's worst playing of the game this year. I on the other hand would have avoided it like the plague.

FLIP FLOP: I flipped and flopped.

STACK THE DECK: Ugh, see first Danger Price comment, it applies here as well.

MAGIC #(Leevers and Geezmos): My magic # was $2,136.

THAT'S TOO MUCH: No suprise it was lost again. Good to see another Minnesotan on!

SIDE BY SIDE: Looks like :clipboard: wanted that sauna given away.

Showcases

Bangkok: Same bid as Mandy.
Bars: $25,000 (Same result as Jessica  (http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/~ak621/Images/Artists/RB/ChilWill.gif) )

Lucky Seven Index: 3/7

Danger Price: Everyone in chat today thought the stroller was $999...except me.

Flip Flop: TVs are getting cheaper.

Stack The Deck: Just like in the recap, we of the chatroom bemoaned the fact that the first number was chosen.

Magic #: No skunks today!

That's Too Much!: Maybe it's time for :clipboard: to consider doing so. She was already past the number and the audience talked her into going that extra step.

Side by Side: Easy Peasy Lemon Squuezy.

And remember, One Night in Bangkok makes a humble man hard...or something like that.

Danger Price: I thought the dinnerware would be more, and the stroller $999...but she should have gone with the clock & fridge first for sure.
Flip Flop: It's called "everyone has one, so they're cheaper". Still, -98 should have been obvious for at least a flip-flop...
Stack the Deck: Even if he did 2nd-4th digits like he should have, he might have picked the 9 instead of 0 still... :roll:
Magic #: Easy pickings.
That's Too Much!: It was finally pretty easy and the audience led her on. Listen to the copy next time, Peanut Gallery!
Sidey: Also easy pickings...why so many quickies with not-so-long car games?
SCs: I had the chance to play CSS today... 19608 / 18508 ... very happy. :) As for Stage Player, those were NOT Ducatis, and I called the random expensive trip!

Not a good show at all in my opinion today, the lineup for the most part was awful as well-not that I don't like TTM or Magic #-I would have taken a playing of SECRET X over one of those two games today just to see its return after a long long layoff, definitely would not have minded Dice Game showing up either. It just doesn't seem to me that there was any reason not to play a SP game today, when a couple of weeks ago we got a show that had Magic #, Pathfinder, AND Stack the Deck in the lineup. Maybe it's just that the way some of the games were played today (i.e, the Danger Price wipeout and the Stack theDeck fiasco which undoubtedly was the worst playing ever of the game in its short existence) have just left me in a grumpy mood, I don't know. To me the show today was blah.

Post by: goldroadfanatic on May 12, 2008, 03:16:31 PM

Is it me or did the Danger Price set look kind of barren with the prizes offered today?  The clock and dinnerware just didn't take up much space and it just made the presentation look kind of empty compared to other playings.

Did anyone else find think that they shot door #3 with at a lower height than usual when they were shooting the swing?

Yay, we saw Flip Flop partially spinning around on the turntable!

I laughed at how Drew emphasized the "almost" part of the skin cream's plug.

I think Aaron was kind of nervous on stage, maybe that's why he asked to place the first number.  It would have been a miracle if he won after asking for that number.  I have to give him credit for eliminating the tossup of 0 and 5 for the last number choice, by asking for the second number.  I really don't know why he said 9 was the last number since there was a zero in the setup.

I really thought that Jean won when she initially stopped at $22,050, and I knew that she would lose by going on to the sixth price.  I was sort of amazed that the Wrangler, with just standard equipment, is still below the $20,000 mark.

"That's right; we're not afraid to give away two showcases here on Price is Right.  Money means nothing to us, do you hear me? Nothing.  One of these shows, I swear, I'm going to set money on fire, just to show it doesn't matter." :lol:

Hey, I almost forgot about that. To me that was the best part of today's show-seeing Flop partially coming around.

BTW: Why is it that they can catch games such as Coming or Going and Flip Flop coming around on the turntable, but when it comes to Bonus Game, perish the thought that it gets on camera coming around?

I thought the silly names for pricing games was a no no around these parts...

anyways.. mandy kinda sucked the energy out of the show for me right from the start and after that it just didnt seem to go anywhere.

Guys: unless it's an established nickname, use the proper name of the game. No more making things up. That's how things got out of hand in another forum.

Post by: wpghi5 on May 12, 2008, 04:18:09 PM

Danger Price: What a way to end the game rather quickly. Picking the prize that had the danger price.  :roll:

Flip Flop: My gut told me to flop and I was right.

Stack The Deck: Aaron definitely made a bad move by the first number. And I don't know why he selected the 9 as the last digit of the car. My guess on it would be $15,640.

Magic #: I probably would lose this game by a few dollars had I put the magic # just under the price of the refrigerator/freezer. Great playing by Jessica.

That's Too Much: I definitely went with the peanut gallery to urge Jean to try one more. No matter where she stopped she and all of us would stop 1 or 2 prices too far.

Side By Side: $5245 was my guess on the sauna as well. Pretty easy.

Showcases: I had a feeling Jessica would go over on her showcase. Mandy gave a rather ok bid on her showcase to redeem herself today.

Seeing Flip Flop and Side by Side on the same show really enforces why there are such things as "conflicts."  One of the other 4 minute 1P games should have rolled out, it seemed very strange seeing them on the same show.

Danger:  No "Big Banana Remix"?  (http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y54/jordanar18/boo.gif)  I'm not exactly sure how that was lost today.  The stroller looked too cheap to be $999, and the grill and clock looked way more than $999.

Flippy:  Yay!  Turntable action! :P  With plasma TVs, you can never go wrong with the 98.

Rig the Cards:  Another inside shout-out to Jacob in the intoduction to this game.  Why the hell did Aaron waste a pick on the first number?  And why did he put 9 as the last number?  Roger really wanted to give that car away today.

Magic:  This game is not quite the same when the thingie isn't spinning around the magic number.  Maybe that's just me.  But thank God we got another contestant who set the magic number over $2,000.  Especially today, when anything under $2,000 was a loser.

That's Too Hard!:  That's Way Too Far!  With no options, that Jeep was definitely not gonna break 20.

SBS:  This game and Flip-Flop on the same show doesn't sit right with me.  The games are too similar.

My showcase bids:
Random room/trip--$17,307
Motorcycles--$20,607

We may have had a lot of losses today, but Drew was in an insanely good mood. It was definitely easy to notice.

Post by: thewhammy_2000 on May 12, 2008, 06:55:52 PM

Danger Price: As soon as I finished showering, I turn the shower off and heard the mrrp and the Losing Horns. From just that, I had a feeling we were either playing Most Expensive or Danger Price. Kinda karmic that I missed the wipeout.

Flip Flop: I wanted to Flop and Kevin Flips. Guess who wins?

Stack the Deck: Bad, just bad. However, I must give credit to Aaron for at least picking the fourth number, maybe even the second number.

magic #: I may have mentioned this before: I would rather hear and use Rye Bred instead of The Cats for the prizes. Anyways, I just felt good when Jessica set the number over 2000. For a brief moment, I thought she made it by only $1, until I recalled it was 2200, not 2000.

That's Too Much!: Brushing my teeth, I had a price in mind. As soon as I heard Drew say $20,902, I wanted to stop there. When I heard the audience wanting her to go on and did, I lost attention to it and I was waiting for the buzzer and Horns to cue.

Side by Side: As long as the numbers had a huge difference between them, this would be a cinch. Oooh, 54 and 45. I still wanted to use 5445. No sorries here.

A note to future contestants: If you ever get the chance to play Stack the Deck, don't pick the first number as your free pick. You're almost guaranteed to lose if you do. Thankfully, Drew was in a very good mood today despite a lot of tough losses today.

Title: Re: FULL RECAP - TPiR 05/12/2008
Post by: Mallory16 on May 12, 2008, 07:35:41 PM

Did anyone notice an additional cymbol sound effect played with the losing horns when Danger Price was lost?  That was kinda' cool.  The game was hard, though.  I thought the stroller was screaming to be avoided.  And it's got nothing to do with why Mandy, specifically, lost, but who of us would have every guessed a random assortment of dinnerware could have such a neat, simple price like $999?  Random dinnerware just screams a screwy price like $843 or $1061 or such.

I can't believe Jessica won Magic Number!  Roger wasn't trying to get that won.  Good job, Jessica!

That's Too Much probably should've been won.  When did Jeep Wranglers become so hard for anyone to price?  Funny to see Drew jumping up and down with Jean, anyway.

Yay for seeing Flip Flop coming around!  I guess they figured since they've been doing it with Coming or Going, that Flip Flop is close enough :).

Danger: Boy, how time flew on this one.  8-)

FlipFlop: $4389....Just not right.

STD:  :headbang:

Magic #: Very nice.

TTM: This one wasn't meant to be.

Side: Good win.

Showcases: I would've bid $19K on the Motorcycles showcase.

A 2.50-star show.

The average contestant can usually tell what prizes are over the danger price, which is usually low...

What the hell happened in Stack the Deck?!  That was one of the most bizarre playings I've ever seen.  It wasn't even that hard today...it was probably supposed to be won.

Now how do you know that? That stroller thing looked more likely to be $999 than the random set of dinnerware which easily could have been $1100 or any price like that. I agree with what Frank said Danger Price was downright difficult today.

Firsts Things 1st,

  Danger price was SCREAMING to be  won today.. Common sense when playing Danger Price is "chose the 2 items that are LEAST LIKELY" to be the Danger Price.  Then work towards the 2 more difficult prices. 

  A baby scroller doesnt cost that much.   It was common sense to not choose the dinnerware.  Not to mention that she was either nervous or another adjective that I cant use in fear of getting "sensored". 

  "What are we bidng on, THAT"?   Come on , the prize was JUST shown 20seconds ago..lol

   What the hay? :-x  How on this earth doesnt know that Jeep Wranglers are between 20100-21000 at the most.  They are on the show every week.

How is it common sense to pick the two items that are least likely to be the danger price, then work toward the two more difficult prizes?  I'll ask a second time:  how does it matter what order the contestant picks the prizes in?  I also don't see how the game was screaming to be won:  I'd have avoided the stroller and lost.  And a lot of other people here agree that it was hardly the world's easiest playing.

Frank,

  That scroller as well as that dinner ware was on the show within the last 2 months.  Check the CBS TPIR Prize page.   I was taught that its better to "work what you know", save the hardest 2 choices "dinnerware and scroller" for last, giving you extra time to think, get audience reacts, notice the other prices , etc.  We all play TPIR differently, but we all love the show .  Thats what counts.

Since you acknowledge that we all have different strategies and ways of playing, and that both ways mentioned here are understandable, then you shouldn't really call your way the common sense way, though.

And I don't even have most of the prices memorized.  Most of the people on this site don't have most of the prices memorized.  What are the odds of Joe Plinko memorizing the dinnerware or stroller prices?
