For Dice Game, the player is always told "There are no numbers higher than 6 and there are no zeroes in the price."
Why then can it not be said to the player during "Lucky Seven" that there are no zeroes in the price of the car? It seems the practice of having car prices without any zeroes in the price dates back to the mid 1980s, but I'm not totally sure.
Also, if a player can be told "There are no zeroes" in the car price, why can't the player be told in Ten Chances "All prices will always end in zero"? The only reason I can figure now is because of how very tight the show has been with the budget. Still, time constraints seem to be worse all the time, and nothing takes up more time than a player who writes $26, or $439 or $21,483 for possible prices in Ten Chances. For those of us who watch the show regularly, or not so regularly even, knowing in advance the player is going to be wrong really makes Ten Chances one of the most difficult pricing games to endure, and this is why I believe the "zero rule" should come out of the closet. They have eliminated many pricing games that might require even a little bit of thought, to "dumb down" the show, yet they insist on not disclosing the ending in zero rule for Ten Chances. Even if the player knows the last digit, they still may not win the car. It would take a maximum of 2 chances to win the 2 digit prize, and a maximum of 6 chances to win the 3 digit prize, leaving just 2 chances for the car. If they wanted to always include prices that might end in 0 or 5, that would be okay too. Line Em Up gives away the last digit for free, and the first digit. Lucky Seven gives the first digit for free, as does Dice Game and Any Number, so I don't understand why they can't say "The prices of the prizes in this game always end in zero." It would possibly speed the game up a bit, and provide a bit more drama for those of us viewers who are in the know.
