[GameShowKid]

I would have won Triple Play. I figured the last auto wouldn’t be that expensive.

Great Clock Game player, even though she didn’t win the second prize. It looked like she got a bit flustered; I’ve definitely seen easier prices in that game regardless.

A bit more suspense than I was expecting in Most Expensive. I didn’t think the TV was priced so high, but I also picked the winning refrigerator. 😊

Pass The Buck! One of my favorite games! Two picks total, and boy, that second one proved very valuable. Nice win!


Point of personal privilege: I'm noticing that this is my one thousand one hundred eleventh post. 1111.    Time flies.

[JayC]

Tough break in Triple Play, I knew he went wrong with the 3rd price on the last car though. I was pretty sure the 1st choice would be correct, though I had some hesitation since it was very close to the price of the second car.

A heartbreaker in Clock Game, she did so well on the first prize and had she had another couple seconds probably would've hit the price for the 2nd to win.

Nice win in Buck, making the most of two picks.

Ugh, yet another Double Overbid

[Wayoshi]

Well, it was nice to see the Big 3 aren't dead. Maybe 3 Strikes is on the missing show from April after all.

[Roadgeek Adam]

I am fighting computer issues. As soon as it wants to behave I will post the recap. It is 4/8 done

[Roadgeek Adam]

Took till 2 am, but I got the damn thing finished. Sorry about that.

[LiteBulb88]

Signs the show is in budget mode: the top car in Triple Play barely broke $20,000. That was setup to be lost.

Signs the show is really in budget mode: in Plinko, when the last digit of the fake price is 0 or 5, it is correct to choose the last digit about 95% of the time. But in this playing, that was broken twice.

Signs the show is really really in budget mode: Kyle's showcase was the cheapest showcase offered all season. Not surprised that got overbid.

Other notes:
* After the first prize in Clock Game, I was comparing Angelia to ClockGameJohn in my mind. Too bad she couldn't hold it together for the second prize .

* Pushover really should've been won. The first price is never correct, the last price is almost never correct, and the prize is always worth over $5,000. That left $6,817 as the only option.

9 too, no?

[ooboh]

I’m thinking those three rapid-succession DSWs really put a hamper on the prize budget.

$5,293 was a little bit low but I did think it was a plausible choice, so I didn't really blame her for her pick.

Another sign that the show is really, really, really in budget mode: No Dream Car Week during May sweeps.

Well, it was nice to see the Big 3 aren't dead. Maybe 3 Strikes is on the missing show from April after all.

Or maybe it was played on the pre-empted show from late-March.

Or maybe it wasn't played on either missed episode, and maybe that could be yet another sign of budget mode.
