If you said mostly A...

You're not really a wakeyist, maybe you just want that odd gamble when you feel like it or when you feel lucky.

If you said mostly B...

You like an occasional gamble, not quite the wakeyist...

If you said mostly C...

You're on that wakeyist borderline. Not stupid, you know when a gamble gets too much...

If you said mostly D...

You're a big risk-taker. Occasionally likes to take the deal, but usually goes for the moment even in a risky position.

If you said mostly E...

Wakeyist factor 10. You'll turn down anything. Anything. You just came to play a game thats all...

A!!!


Im so glad im not a wakeyist!!

Actually, looking at it again, its not that brilliant an offer, so my response might be something along the lines of "Thanks, but no thanks."

My gosh please NONE of you apply for this show lol

I dont believe I'm overly cautious with this game, I would only deal a quite exceptional 3rd/4th offer (See Paul H's £40k)

90% of the time I'm out at offer 5/6 and in certain cirucmstances, I would continue, especially if the offer was particularly bad

Fair enough!

I sense you would be smart enough to not take anything derisory

Absolutely! (for the most part..)

Although, I would have taken Ajay's £19,500 and Theresa's £52,000 purely because I wouldn't be happy with the alternative after rejecting that much.

1. A - I'd probably look for about £20k there.
2. A - I think £30,000 would be the tipping point, dependent upon Banker strategy.
3. A - I'd be out of there in a flash!
4. A - ditto!
5. A, B or C dependent upon which Power 5 amounts they were!
6. "The mean is £65,000. Forget about it."
7. A!!!
8. A!!!!!

1. a (I'd deal less than £25,000!)
2. a
3. a (I'd deal that instantly)
4. a (Ditto)
5. a
6. Piss off, I'll make my own decisions!
7. a
8. a...

Haha, all A's. I though Wakeyism was all about incapability of respecting people's decisions as well though.

Wakeyism is a boring name and mr wakey is gone now, change it to Wilsonism since I think I am the biggest no dealer on here possibly now, its between me and Basicasic I think.

1. "A-" (i.e. I'd probably deal anything over 15k!)
2. A
3. A (100%!)
4. A (100%!)
5. It would depend on how much I liked them (but tending towards E)!!
6. A confident no deal!
7. A
8. A


Quite a few of those offers, even the lowest one is fairly generous!!

Ive got another name to call it but im not aloud to say it on here!

Where were the questions involving the 250k and a mid red/power 5?

1. You have a board of 50p/£5/£100/£500/£250,000. You are asked personally whereabouts you'd deal. Would you deal at...

a: Between £25,000 and £30,000

2. With a board of £75,000 £100,000 and £250,000 at 11 box, and 8 blues, what would you deal? (post the letter that the maximum you would no-deal)

e: Over £60,000

3. You're left with 1p and £75,000. You're offered £35,000. What percentage of you would be tempted to take it?

a: 100% - 81%

4. You're left with 1p and £100,000 and you've been offered £41,000. What percentage of you would be tempted to take it?

a: 100% - 81%

5. Someone deals for £9,000 at the third offer when they have 2 of the power 5 and a stack of reds, and Noel rubs it in. What percentage of you wants to rub it in as well?

d: 61% - 80%

6. You're left with £500/£750/£3k/£75k/£250k. The banker is talking to you. He says, "Take this now, it's £21,000." What is your response?

Thanks for the offer, but it's going to take a bit more to get me out of the chair.

7. You are a playing a special episode and are left with £1 and £500,000. The offer is £190,000. Do you...

a: Deal?

8. You are playing a very special episode where you're left with £50 and £1,000,000. You are offered an immense £350,000. Do you...

a: Deal?



If you said mostly A...

You're not really a wakeyist, maybe you just want that odd gamble when you feel like it or when you feel lucky.

[That isn't a suprise].

Trouble with this survey is that most people who aren't extreme Wakeyists, myself included, will answer A to questions 1, 2, 3, 4, 7 and 8. Making the offers in the questions a bit lower would have given more interesting results.

5 would annoy me as a viewer though so D or E there, and 6 would be a definite no-deal for me.

I'm with you there, Power5!

I'm thinking of reviving the Dealometer for January with a couple of new twists...
