i have to agree though that it is a great game and makes excellent tv .it being moronic is another matter.. just suppose you are interested in financial programs and your granny likes deal or no deal.. u wouldn't like it if she said your program was moronic tv
liking or not liking the comment wouldnt change anything - I have no problem with a simple guessing being on TV - its fine if it just passes half an hour - what I cant stand in the way Edmunds and some views build in the strategy into the game and if it is the new 15-to-1!!!
There is no difference if you started at box 1 and went straight up the numbers as its totally random.
Edmunds - "so Mary, what number will you have next"
Mary - "well John had a high number yesterday and a low number the day before - I think he will have a low number today, but I am not sure!! Derek has box number 7 today, 2 sevens a 14 - 1+4 is 5 - Sheila has box number 5, I like Shelia she is very nice, I have a niece called Sheila - she 12 - I'll got for box 12!!"
Edmunds - "oh, doesnt she play the game well"
Its total
b@ll@ocks!!
All you have to do is add the number of boxes together and divide that into the total amount left that is available on the board - e.g. if the combined total in all the boxes is £154,000 and there are seven boxes left then your box
theoretically is worth £22,000 and you should therefore not accept an offer from the banker of much less than that figure!
(as you can she I have an opinion on the matter!!)
