[quote name=\'adamjk\' date=\'Aug 8 2004, 08:46 PM\'] Explain to me how this question was stupid. I don't find it so. [/quote]
This is why the question was stupid: When you ask it, what you say is this:
"I think there is a reason they might change the bell sound to something else."
And there is NO REASON TO THINK THAT. Name for me one game show, JUST ONE, where the situation you describe has happened. Just give me PRECEDENT.
(The CLOSEST such incident that I can think of in 30 years of watching game shows would be the week of Dawson Feud when the descendants of the Hatfields and the McCoys were on, and the face-off buzzer was replaced with a shotgun sound. But even THEN they used the bog-standard bell for answer reveals, and I'll double the Malcolm Jackpot if you knew about that before this moment anyhow, or else you would have used it to defend your position.)
Once again, nobody is telling you you're not allowed to ask a stupid question. So long as you're on topic, you post whatever you like. But you should expect to be told when it's stupid. And this was stupid. Now learn from it, and perhaps next time you WON'T post something stupid, and you'll get the answer you want.
