Still love the show, just angry at the endurance test they put me through for virtually nothing.

I will gently point out that this is the HARDEST thing they ask of you. If you get on the show, you don't have to eat blended-up frogs or have bugs and worms poured on you, you don't have to walk a tightwire or live on an island without food and water, you don't even have to know the answer to so much as a single trivia question. All you have to do, as you said, is stand around and remember never to say a number higher than 26.
And in return you stand about a 90% chance of receiving a six-figure payday. And a guaranteed five figures, unless you're a COMPLETE moron. $2000 an hour for five hours in line. Minimum.
So, yeah, 'scuse me if don't have a lot of sympathy that you had to (and you didn't HAVE to, you CHOSE to) stand in a long line.
