I've retaliated to trolls in the past, although in hindsight I shouldn't have, and it never turned out well. They tried to blackmail me several times, called me names I dare not utter on any site (names which I'm not even comfortable posting through spoiler tags), and built a full-of-lies article about me on the horrid Encyclopedia Dramatica.[/quote]But it's OK that you go over to Drew Carey's blog and yell at telephone polls.[/quote]
Dude, that was a mistake I made nearly a full year ago. Please don't bring it up again.

My point is, the show is changing something that didn't need changing. This seemingly-small measure would prohibit people (both celebrities and contestants alike) who are unable to stand for lengthy periods of time due to leg problems, and those whose bodies are more frail than others.
Sure, they may make accommodations for those people, but what are the chances that those people will even be chosen to be contestants?
This seemingly-minor change is reminding me of Million-Dollar Password, in that the contestants and celebrities stood for long periods of time while Reege sat in a nice black chair -- not to mention that every contestant seemed to be about 18-34 with few physical flaws.
Maybe they'll change it back by the time taping begins, or if the show gets picked up. It doesn't seem like a big deal, I admit, but it definitely seems to have been done for a reason that's not simply "We wanted something different".
