[quote name=\'Jay Temple\' date=\'Sep 15 2003, 03:27 PM\'] [quote name=\'Neumms\' date=\'Sep 14 2003, 08:11 PM\'] I must be out of the loop--they're briefing the celebs? Is there a disclaimer I haven't noticed? [/quote]
They are not shown the actual material for that day's show, but they do play some practice material, just as they did in previous eras. (Don't feel bad; I was guilty of the same misunderstanding.) [/quote]
Without getting into specifics, Jay, you are mistaken. I don't know how much of it may or may not be covered in a disclaimer, but celebrities, at least during season one, got to see actual game material in advance.

Thank you for correcting me. Now I know that I was right the first time! I posted this on GSN's message board early last season and someone not only insisted that I was wrong but complained about people who repeated things they heard without knowing it themselves. (Ironic, huh?)

I would much rather prefer the give/receive option myself. If I ever went on Pyramid and got into the Winner's Circle, I'd give. I don't want a Dick Cavett happening to me...

Yeah, it would suck if one of the celebs tried to pick a fight w/Stephen Brown. :-)

Nonsensical guesses do little more than eat up the clock. Illegal clues mean that you absolutely will not get the $10,000.
