A Mission For Drew
« on: January 24, 2008, 08:48:13 AM »
I think Drew Carey should go on a $50,000 Plinko mission.  Every time someone plays Plinko and doesn't win $50,000, Drew should add another $10,000 slot to the board.  Wouldn't this be exciting?  You bet it would!

[/quote]Exactly why would this be a good idea?  How dull would it be if you knew in advance that some one would win $50,000?  

The "fun" in Plinko comes from chips hovering around the $10,000 spot, and not knowing if it will hit the big space, or a zero. YMMV.

Mark, I think you need some new batteries in your Klauss-Gibson.

Mine must be on the fritz too. I honestly couldn't tell if that was sarcasm or not.

(It's a sad state of affairs around here that I have to actually entertain the notion that it wasn't.)

No it wouldn't. The real excitement of Plinko is seeing that chip wobble its way down and balancing on the edge of the $10K slot. Multiply that by 5 chips and you have one hell of a Plinko game. Let's not go the DoND route here.

Now as for me, I'm holding out for Alex changing all of the clue values on J! to $2000, one at a time, until that Ken Jennings record is beaten.  (Which record?  Pick one!)

Do you mind adding something else to your arsenal besides "Dude" and that incredibly stupid picture of Tommy Oliver in his drawers?  Creativity's not a bad thing.

Me?  I got a ton of sarcasm detectors for sale and I have a quota to reach by the end of the month.

The thing is, "troll" implies intent. I don't think this guy is trying to stir up the shiat for its own sake.

So "troll" isn't the word I would use.

Hm.  That's a darn shame, because if you just read the comment and assume it's not meant seriously, it's pretty dang funny.
