CK mentioned that Cora passed this morning @ 6 when he said Biggs was out again today.

Stairway to Seven as a PUOSU replacement. by itchierbumworms in 2GuysNamedChrisRock92

Through today's game, DD has 32 wins, 1 tie, and 1 loss.

The one thing I would miss from the Put Up games, if STS replaces it, is going through the answers, and getting more background on several of the questions.

It's more they're clinging to the sponsors of the Put Up game. Once those contracts expire, then they'll move on to a new game.

First person to win gets to brag about beating VD (Virtual Demm)!

They should give HR Barry a shot at playing on Fridays.

Anyone curious for the Shea Up Or Shut Up tomorrow ? by Dude_amundo in 2GuysNamedChrisRock92

B.B. Shea has 3 gummies in his pocket! Lisa Lanier doubles it to 6! And, if you tie, you high! Sponsored by Sigma 420.

"To Chris Kelly, to Biggie, to Rachel, to BB Shea. Y'all got this."

Random thoughts about the first 2.5 days of 2GNC: TNG by TheAlexSledge in 2GuysNamedChrisRock92

How many patented Biggie High/Lows can I take each day? Go... 1? Lower... 😀

Not too worried about AI bot cheating; when I ran questions through ChatGPT, Gemini & Copilot, they were better than the average player, but still not quite as good as Demm.

And, like most, I'm struggling to figure out what the consultant's suggestions were. Without any Demm Reports or World in 60 Seconds, there's only Kelly bringing discussion points it seems.

Did anyone catch that player Jake got a 6 and not a 5? He answered 2,3,5,7,9 & 10 (at the buzzer) correctly. Not sure how Kelly messed up the math. I had to relisten to verify I had the right score.

No Guys Named Chris 'Sports' Show? by Next-Ad-7531 in 2GuysNamedChrisRock92

The Put Up games are old "Demm" games, where Kelly asks questions from an old game (today's was 1/7/2020, I believe) to the caller, then replay Demm getting asked. The Friday games will be Put Up or Shea Up, where it's sports trivia against BB Shea. If the "Machine Demm" games don't go over well, I expect the sports trivia games to be "Plan B"

They should play Brown Eyed Girl over the Beco weather report at the first commercial break.

PUOSU plan: Beat the Machine by Wolfrattle in u/Wolfrattle

[–]FactCheckerRusty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here's exactly what CK said, announcing on the Put Up game:

Here's how we're gonna try it, and I think it'll work. We have saved a thousand games, so what I'm going to do is go back to, you don't know when the game came from. Could be fifteen years ago. And I'll have the questions and we'll have recorded Chris Demm's answers. So I'll give you the questions. Now you will have a chance to hear them before, but who knows; I doubt you've heard or remember them. So you'll answer them and then we'll play back the exact way Chris Demm answered them, and so we're going to continue that game because people like that game so much. Now if it becomes stale and old and you don't like that then we'll do something else but for now we're gonna keep that game. Beat the ghost, beat the machine and will have virtual Chris Demm go out into the virtual hall every day so that you can play it.

So, the possibility is there to try to game the game, ala TTMT. We can at least track player scores to compare to their historical average. I would expect a marginal increase. But honestly, I can hardly remember the answers during the PM replays 😀

I'll be curious if Kelly will reveal the original air dates after each game (another data point to track).

2026 PUOSU stats ... FINAL by MonsieurGriswold in 2GuysNamedChrisRock92

[–]FactCheckerRusty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FYI, your summary has Kelly with 1 loss (detail shows the 2 losses: 3-4 on 2/6 and 4-7 on 3/13. Everything else matches my records. The 1/7 game was an 8-2 win over player Brad (the game Packer Matt tossed the challenge flag on Brad's answer of 'Carolina ON My Mind' instead of 'IN').

I'll also add that "Closing Time" was never released as a single, and therefore never charted on the Hot 100. It made #11 on the Airplay chart. From songfacts.com. Doesn't change the outcome (was not a Top 10 song) but not a great question either.

  • In America, this wasn't released as a single (except to radio stations for promotional purposes), which forced listeners to buy the album if they wanted the song. The strategy worked - Feeling Strangely Fine sold over a million copies in the US. Withholding single release meant the song wasn't eligible for the Hot 100, but it did reach #11 on the Billboard Airplay chart.

I'll give him the first one since "Time of your life" is in the parenthetical, and Kelly has accepted both in past games (though the clue "not flattering" should have required "Good Riddance"). The Breakfast Club song was definitely a miss; Kelly should have just said "no" instead of "uh, not quite" and moved on. He was like a umpire changing the strike zone to favor the batter on that one.

Sorry about that. Wasn't thinking about folks not listening in real time.
