1V still has a home viewer game, but it's entirely skill-free.  They've asked the Mob a question, and your job is to decide how many got it right (or is it wrong?).  There are three choices.  Pick a number, but there's no way for you to know the answer--until it's revealed, later in the show, of course.

[/quote]Not entirely...if you know the answer to the question asked of the mob, and you have a good idea how well-known the topic is, then you can make an educated guess at how many people would get it wrong (as opposed to, say, a completely wild guess as to which model out of six has the magic briefcase).  I'm blanking on Friday's question presently, but I felt good enough about it to use almost every one of my ten entries on what turned out to be the correct choice out of the three.  (I used one choice each on the others, just in case.)

True enough.  You can make a vaguely educated guess--but it's still a guessing game.

It's one step better than the "Mob Money" game they offered during summer reruns. Basically take D/ND's Lucky Case game and replace the models with cartoon mob members. Pick who has the money, and voila!
