We're currently on a long streak of red wins, most of them within a moderate range.

From a viewer's perspective, would you prefer to see a week of shows with
consistent moderate red wins (10K-20K), or a week with a combination of blue wins and Power 5 wins?

Vote now! :D

A fortnight with those two mixed up would suit me just fine. :D

Seriously, I'd probably take the latter option unless:

* there were more four-figure wins than five in that option
* if one or more (preferably two) of those three Power 5 wins were Deals, as it'd imply it wasn't just a Wakey Week

Definitely a mixure of blue and power of 5 wins.

I'll say it depends on deals made in relation to the board, entertaining characters , stages of the game the deals were made at, proveout offers etc, that sort of thing, so I can't really say one over the other.

I'd definitely go for the first if it was the contestants I didn't like winning the blues! :)

The latter.

Of course, Power 5 wins are great to watch, but blue wins aren't always..
Plus, with blue wins, there's the likely factor of cautious deals afterwards, which don't produce fantastic games..

All middle sized wins until my mates are gone, but after they have gone, I'd lean towards the first option.

Can't argue with any of that! :D

I would agree with this, but I voted for the 2nd option as 3 blue wins would be tougher to view
than 3 Power 5 wins that could've been. The viewers may not be watching their mates, but unlike other international versions of DOND, the contestants have done enough shows for us to care about doing well when it comes to their turn.
Having said that, I like what KP said when he'd be happy with a combination of the two over 2 weeks. :D
