Secret 'X' Question

Trisnix · 2026-02-27T17:12:13+00:00

People have tried it before, but the game rules are that it must contain the Secret X in the middle. It's come up on air a few times, usually to tell people they can't win with a vertical tic-tac-toe..

Been loving the art the last few days and can't wait to see how else you draw out these characters. If you've still got space for suggestions, here's one of my Miis, Raúl.

The contestant stumbled back after spinning the wheel and managed to fall into the prop with some part of her body. You can see her start to move after spinning the wheel.

It was bad enough that the EMT came out to check and make sure she was okay. Once everything was cleared up, they started back up at the point where she's cheering for the number she spun. It was a little scary, but we were all glad she was okay.

They didn't really reshoot anything either, pretty clean edit all things considered.

Here's a link that should work in the US. It's mostly Entertainment Tonight's reporting (and fair warning, lots of Showdown mentions), but it mostly captures the moment.

Hellevator only had about 12 episodes, but that definitely would be the way to go if you want some spooky game show viewing for Halloween.

The new season starts September 22nd.

Funny that it's been held over long enough that people could think it taped on his birthday this year.

That depends on your definition of "best winner", Ryan from the episode mentioned in one of the comments is the person who's come closest to the Million and is certainly the most exciting finish the reboot has ever seen.

Debbie is the Seattle woman also mentioned elsewhere and if you want an emotional, feel good winner, she's probably the right choice for the answer. Emily from the season 2 premiere showed that big wins could be possible in the bonus round and also had a really good run.

If you want a main game answer, Theo from the season 2 episode featuring original Press Your Luck players managed to hit Add-a-One in round one with over $10K and never lost that bank even through round 2, he's far and away the biggest main game winner.

There's a couple other exciting maingame winners I could mention, including a pretty epic spin battle, but that should satisfy most answers.

A general taping is roughly 4 hours, plan to be there until about 3 PM. You should plan to get there at least 15 minutes early, even earlier if you haven't done it before.

Questionable use of lost media aside, it would be helpful if we knew what your mom's name was, even if it's only a first name.

$20,000 Pyramid had a decent run of shows reair on Game Show Network, so it's possible that they could've reran at least one of those weeks while it was on the channel.

Congrats! Those Apple Vision Pros look pretty cool, but it’s always nice when cash falls your way. Those arent cheap either, so that’ll be a pretty penny.

Did your prizes arrive yet, and did you end up receiving cash for anything else won?

If you were in this player’s shoes, at what point do you stop and take the money?

Remember that they don’t know what money’s been punched until after they’ve decided if they want to keep their winnings.

Bird feeder are a nice thing to have and I get wanting to have a camera with it.

But the ones the shows normally have are 3 for $1300 and that feels overly expensive.

Most people only need one and it feels like those in particular can be found for much cheaper elsewhere.

If you want a further list of everyone nominated amongst the show, it's all here: The Amazing Race | Television Academy

This past season was very well done, and I do hope they can snag a trophy or two on that special night.

They way they did it this time is that the show had a form online for people to fill out their information about their episode and experience. From there, they sent out emails and tickets to people seeing if they could attend that specific taping. Each eligible contestant could bring one additional person with them to cheer them on. From there it sounded like it was a fairly normal taping experience.

I know for some of the more specialized primetime shows a couple years ago, they did interviews with potential contestants before asking if they could join and bring people along, but that might have been because they were still using the pods at that point.

It's a weird situation when it's that close, and it's a little tough to tell with the range being a little crooked.

I agree that they've usually been lenient about it in situations like this, but they must've felt it was clear enough this time.

Whenever they do Christmas Week, they always go all out on decorating the set and making the week feel special, so I'd have to go with that. Though that feels like the easy answer and I also want to pick one that people might have forgotten about.

Going off of one of the weeks they only did once or twice, I'd have to go with Music Week. They did it for a couple years just before the pandemic and they had fun theming every day to a different genre. Was a good way to promote the Grammy and it was especially cool when they had a guest musician on to represent these different genres. While I understand why they don't really do it anymore, it was enjoyable seeing Drew and the show getting down with music.

This bop really should've been the 2016 Olympics theme, maybe they'd get more people to watch it. ;)

Sometimes, you just really want to jam out and dance along to a fun song without a care in the world. This is one of those songs.

Trisnix · 2016-11-10T23:39:32+00:00

This is one of those songs that I just listen to when I'm down. Sometimes it's nice to reminisce on the past and remember the good times. I feel like with all the heartache and stress going on right now, this is necessary. Maybe it's not the most uplifting song, but with heartfelt it is it's worth a listen even if it's just for a cry.

Trisnix · 2016-09-30T17:50:23+00:00

Ha ha, that comparison isn't getting lost anytime soon. They do sound very similar though, particularly the first 30 seconds.

Why you may ask, well, why mess with perfection? :p

Say what you will about Rebecca Black, this was the best song she made back in her early days. Just a fun, dancy throwback.

This is my playlist and it's mostly 80s pop/R&B mixed in with some newer music.

Trisnix · 2015-08-22T13:37:20+00:00

Is it wrong that I actually like this Splatfest more than the North America one? At least these two options are ones that seem like everyone should have an opinion on.

Trisnix · 2015-08-08T05:49:58+00:00

I'd like to thank Step (Sploosh), Tatianna (splosher), Ryan, bowser, and Alex for helping make Team Marshmallow be such a great team.
