I'm using Scrabble sfx on my phone:  (tile selection/letter drop-in for received texts and the Speedword buzz-in as a ringtone)

I switch back and forth between game shows and tv shows I enjoy. Right now I have the NCIS theme. I rotate that with the Millionaire theme I edited to make it sound like the extended million dollar win cue. I also have PYL theme in a MIDI format. I wish I could change the text message tone on the iPhone since everyone has the same damn cue play and can get confusing. I'd use either the final jeopardy clue reveal or wheel of fortune puzzle unveil.

In a business setting it's tough to have game show themes for ringtones, but I've been using pretty simple GS FX no one recognizes.

That'd be something to wake up to -- if you wanted to make sure to wake up.

Me, I wanted something gentle -- the soothing tones of "Explain the Rules".

I switch back and forth between the Power of 10 theme and Chain Reaction (GSN) theme as my ringtone.

When 'Wheel' briefly had the April Fool's 2008 segment on their site recently, the end of the vid included the first 30 seconds of the closing theme music totally clean. I downloaded the vid, converted the sound to MP3, cropped the music, and made it my ringtone.

What can I say, I love Frankie Blue's arrangement.

I must say, I love the looks I get when the sounds of a string quartet start emerging from the pocket of an otherwise-normal-looking twenty-something male. :)

While this thread is being bumped, I must say, my text tone (Wheel puzzle chimes) has become a little conversation starter. A few friends have heard it and said "Jeopardy!...wait, is that the one?" Gets a chuckle out of me. :-)

Meanwhile, some of my co-workers (some of which are just as nerdy as I am at times) will immediately say "It's a THING/PLACE/PERSON!"

Bumping for the iPhone users; now that iOS5 is out, you can - EVEN with a 3gs - finally do custom messaging and e-mail tones.

Looks like I need to go over the thread to see what I need to get, eh?

Lucky you.  Outside of jailbreaking it, the iPad doesn't allow such customization with iOS 5.

Au contraire, sir.  I just tried this on my iPad 2, and it worked like a charm.

EDIT: Hmm, I apparently had the wrong link in there.  My bad.
