Just want to bring up something that's annoying me on this forum. Stupid posts like:
Quote:
'[player name] x3............................'

*insert nonsense here about player not having the guts*

'[player name] x3............................'

*insert nonsense here about how a certain gamble was worth a punt*

We don't need this rubbish! :smt011


I agree, especially during the show's last couple of years when the forum's interest in DoND was dwindling. The daily commentaries were getting shorter and shorter (during the show's final run in late 2016, some threads were getting down to only one page long!!) and were becoming VERY uninteresting to read with the mostly the same "Bad answer for box 23", "Hopefully he/she won't have too many regrets" comments over and over again :roll:

Another late entry i wanted to get in was the fact that low wins on special dates (Christmas, New Year's Eve, DoND birthday shows etc.) were considered SACRILEGE both on the show and on here, and whenever someone had a trainwreck game on Christmas or New Year's, they'd receive ludicrous banker handouts just to make damn sure they get a happy game on an important day. The £5k+ handout to Helen B who played on the 2nd birthday show and only won a couple hundred pounds was ridiculous :smt009

To be honest I reckon the increase in viewers had more to do with Tipping Point finishing around that time (at least I think it did). It does seem to be getting its backside kicked by that show whenever they clash. I honestly don't see the appeal of it but then I guess there were plenty who said that about DOND when it was big.

Brave players wouldn't hurt though. Sadly they seem to be intent on solely picking players who really need the money, or 'characters' who just prat around for an hour. It's just such a 'daytime' rut. They don't seem to realise that an intense brave game can have just as much 'character', just replacing the desperate padding with genuine tension, like the old days!


*WHHIIP--BANG*

"Stewartw, One."

Like Tom Hanks and his football on that island in 'Cast Away', it looks like it's just me and the bots here now. But that's alright, we're having a grand old time. Aren't we, Wilson? WILSOOOON?!

A few of us who were once part of the furniture, once stalwarts of the grand and extravagant, exuberant and thriving forum, have receded back into the walls, still faintly visible, still here as poignant, reminding relics of an era gone by; but most of us have vanished, forever immersed in the mists of time.

What really annoys me is if you compare Alice and Corrine's game! Corrine walks away with a blue shes a failure, Alices gamble pays off, this means a winner, how come Corrine never gets praise, Corrine took the bigger risk I'd say over Alice and all she ends up is with abuse! So if the gamble pays off they are good, but if another person takes the same gamble and fails, they are an idiot or a loser, according to members of this s :smt105 :smt105
