I Mean if they did who's game would you put on each day?

Monday:85k Rodney
Tuesday: 101K Graeme
Wednesday:88k Alex
Thursday:100k Dale
Friday:75k Kirsty
Saturday:250k Tegen
Sunday:75k Amy

All of these games were wonderful.Loved all of them and these games should be shown for a classic week of DOND. If they do one? Who would be on yours and what day would you show the game one?

I'd make it a Deal or No Deal "decades special", with one classic game from each year the show was on over the course of two weeks.

2005: 120k Jennifer
2006: 20k Morris
2007: 250k Laura
2008: 100k Lauren
2009: H2005's game (we do NOT need a repeat of Alice's obviously manufactured jackpot win :smt011 )
2010: 88k Alex
2011: 250k Suzanne (without question the luckiest game in Deal history)
2012: 250k Nong
2013: 250k Paddy
2014: 250k Roop

Sorry, mate, that it's so hard to meet your screwed-up standards. :roll: :roll: :roll:

I'm not sure that's exactly how he meant it, mate ( ;) ) - I know you've inferred that he wants to see mayhem and destruction and sadness and trainwrecks and so on, but I don't know if that's genuinely what he had in mind.

It might be, of course, but I think he meant that sometimes, the best games aren't always those players who win 'mega-money'. For example, I'd count Steve from last January as an all-time classic, yet he 'only' won £15,000. Fadil, for his bravado and sheer egotism, despite winning only a penny, for the entertainment - that old chestnut Pat M, as I've mentioned lately...and so on, and so forth. There are enough 'low-tariff' games which would still be up to 'classic' standards, in my view, and I think that, rather than 'LET ME REVEL IN YOUR DESPAIR!', is what Psycho's trying to put forward.

I could be very wrong, though... :suspect: :smt023

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.

You are indeed correct, with the possible exception of the wildly against-the-odds trainwreck games like Olympic week Mark, which I would welcome a repeat showing, the majority of non-big win games I want to see are the character driven shows. Pat M, Farmer Clive, 83 year old Tony from 2012, plenty of others from eras when I wasn't a regular viewer as well.

To throw more variety into the bag, you can have the 'Deal gone very wrong' games which caused a riot on here. Richard from May 2008 is (or maybe was) the shorthand for a dodgy deal and his game's worthy of the 'infamous classic' title. '2nd offer DEAL' Josh is another one, although it didn't go that wrong for him and he's weirdly avoided being the new shorthand for caution.

Just continuous repeats of big wins for the sake of them being big wins are boring. There have been very few games where the player is an established character AND has won a fortune. For all the right reasons we have 87k Lance and for all the wrong reasons we have 110k Bunney. I'm not sure we've had many others, if any at all?
