If you were to appear on DOND would you have a certain amount you would be happy to win. And would you have a certain way you would play your game. I would be happy with £25,000 just because my fella proposed to me & it would help pay for the wedding. Because Jamie's a footballer i would chose his shirt no first then I would chose how many goals he's scored then go with birthdays.

Depends on my circumstances but I would say about £5,000 would be enough for me. I would go through significant numbers first, then going through all the insignificant numbers after, leaving box 22 until the very end.

I think I'd want about £20,000 - I'd be content with less, but that's when it would get into life-changing territory for me, and I don't think I'd deal for less if one of the Power Five was still out there. I certainly couldn't see myself dealing for less than £10,000, as it would feel like a bit of a wasted opportunity when you can win up to £10k just by ringing in.

As for how I'd play - I'd go for the box directly opposite where mine would be, and then pick every other box and the one opposite it. So if I stood where Stevie stands, I'd go Carlton, Drew, Nessie, Becca, etc - purely because I'm anal and like things to be neat and symmetrical! Except I'd save Box 4 (and the one opposite it) to the end as a "lucky" number - I don't really believe in lucky numbers, but you've got to have one at the end, so it might as well be that.

Dear God, I've given this far too much thought than I ought to. You can tell how much I dream of being there...

I would be happy with 3k up. i would probably deal way to early because i really value money and would be scared of winning a blue amount.

I would take off all my in significant numbers first in order then do the same with my significant numbers

I'd be happy with £7k to have a nice conservatory or a little bit under that amount to help towards it.

If I won anymore I'd have a holiday to Florida and save the rest for future hols, birthdays and xmas and put some aside for my Daughters first car.

I'd like about £10K I think for my own personal use. I'd love a bit more so I can afford to spread the wealth around a bit to my immediate family - a few K's to my dad to cover the mortgage shortfall and let him retire a couple of years early, a few K's to mum to go on a decent holiday, a few K's for my sister and her boyfriend to set up home. I wouldn't just be playing for me so I'd probably play it quite safe - no unnecessary risks. If I won a really big amount, I'd donate a large chunk to my local hospital. It's all if's and but's though. I doubt I'll ever apply. They wouldn't have me anyway! ;)

The only thing I would do is keep my lucky numbers three and thirteen until right at the end. If either was my box on the table then I might treat it as an omen and go right to the end, otherwise I would use the 'CAR' system - "Completely At Random". :lol:

I'd be happy with any red amount! I think I'd like enough to buy a car and pay for the insurance and stuff. I'd pick the boxes based on my favourite Liverpool players.

£10,000 would be fantastic, anything above that would be a bonus.

Ten grand would see me walking, UNLESS, of course I still had the PO5 left, which is highly unlikely.

Ah, similar to Ann's EAR system, only with the word 'Entirely'... :-D

I'd be happy with any sum because at the end of the day, the experience is what it's all about and any money I would win would be the icing on the cake. :-D As for a system...I don't think I would have one. I would proberely pick random numbers out of a box like Nancy did.

First I'll point out I'm from Australia.

This will sound like total BS, but I would play right through to my case, and give whatever I won to charity. Meeting Andrew would be the win for me. ;)

Hell, I even know which order I would pick all the cases in.

My thoughts on how I would play the game would be...

At any offers prior to the final two boxes, I would not go for less than £20k with the quarter million still in play, and wouldn't go for less than £10k otherwise. Above that it would depend a lot on the structure of the board, and how generous a particular offer felt. A very strong/stable board and I would probably go on regardless unless I got a "no-brainer" offer (which are few and far between these days).

On the final two boxes:
Best amount remaining £20,000 or less - no deal anything below the mean (except perhaps accepting a joke offer with two very low amounts left!).

Two power 5 amounts - would probably no deal anything below the mean. Though a six-figure offer on £250k v £35k would be tough to turn down.

Power 5 amount vs. blue or low red - would probably deal unless the offer was really insulting. But that would be the most difficult decision of them all!
