I think most everyone would have said Ty who???  To be fair, maybe if the host would have been disclosed at the time, everyone would have known that the show was not going to go forward, as Ty had sewn up the hosting gig on MGC.

To be clear. I approached John first and I asked him if he'd mind if I post what I saw to the forum. He preferred I not, and I obliged.
Enjoy lots and lots of backstage TPIR photos and other fun stuff here. And yes, I did park in Syd Vinnedge's parking spot at CBS

It's not uncommon at all for a show to go to air under a different host than the one who did the pilot.

Pretty sure that Combination Lock's pilot was taped before MGC's, to be paired with The Joker's Wild.

Sure, that must be why John asked for our input on who should host the show even after the pilot had been taped.

Correct. The pilot (and subsequent bru-ha-ha) was fall 2006. MGC wasn't announced until early-2007.

While we're on the subject, anyone know how TJW06 went?

Way to miss the point. (Unless you're just trolling, in which case, shame on me.)
