The Joker's Wild Categories from 1977-1986

[TLEberle]

Let's all be honest here, if we tell him the categories the next thing is that he'll want us to write the material for him.

The nerve...

Amidst all the jokes, Matt O. provided a link to clips from the show. If you didn't bother to watch the clips, you have no right to whine about no one helping. Besides, the categories were mostly generic anyways (Animals, Fairy Tales, Headlines, etc.). You can't expect people to do all your legwork, then get annoyed when people tell you to put in a little effort yourself. A Youtube search for "The Joker's Wild 1978" takes all of 15 seconds, and you could probably find at least 10-12 categories* in just one episode. Want another tip? Look up "Tic Tac Dough" or "Bullseye"...a lot of the same material. You're welcome.

*I can't remember, was it 5 or 6 categories per game? I need someone to tell me even though I could look on Youtube.

/I'm actually at work and can't watch on Youtube

5 per match.

Roderick, do you have any of the board games? A lot of those categories are probably similar to what you would see on the show.

The only two game show games that i have are wheel of fortune (both versions) and the classic 1978 home version of tic tac dough.

and the classic 1978 home version of tic tac dough.

You couldn't recycle questions from that to use?

God help me, I'm curious now which two versions are "both versions."  Doesn't Wheel have about 14 bazillion home games?

Just an observation:

This "Rodrick" has been on here for nearly a week..(As often happens, I just found the thread this morning)..If I were looking for information and wasnt getting it to my satisfaction, plus, getting teased/embarassed by nearly everyone in a group I just joined..I would probably give up and just leave..Ive seen this sort of thing a few times..

As usual when folks make these observations, the fallacy at the outset is that you are assuming a rational thought process.

The Roderick dude is either a troll or autistic.  If troll, he's enjoying causing the commotion; if autistic, he's not picking up on the h8.

Agreed wtih the troll theory, but not necessarily the autistic...IMHO, that's a pretty broad statement to make..

Maybe not autism, i'll say Rod is undaunted by the feelings of others.

He's not a troll. (And once again I am getting tired of people crying out "troll!" every time we get another clubie around here.)

This particular picnic basket is a few sandwiches short, whether it's because he's somewhere on the autistic spectrum or because of some other deficiency, because that's really the only reason someone would have the audactiy to claim "displease" at being told to pound sand after asking for such a stupidly expansive project to be done for him. It's just not computing.

I'm tellin' ya guys, it's far more simple than that: It's Matt and Chris dishing out the lulz.  I don't know what kind of sick pleasures they derive from such exercises, but it's the only explanation I'll entertain at the moment.

\Either that or Roderick is very young.
