It's the holidays, but hope you get a chance to catch me.

..Still one of my fav gameshows.

Can you talk about the experience without spoiling the outcome?

..and miles to go before i sleep...

This dude I used to hustle with had a friend who was a security guard for the show, and he said he'd pull a string if I could sink a hook hot from half court.

Long story short, I hit the shot, and she got on the show.

She KILLED that joint. She was glorious.

It was all downhill from there though. I had a bit of a gambling problem, and she warned me she'd leave if I gambled the money she gave me. But I was in the zone, and doubled the money she gave me.

She left me anyways. At least I was able to pay off those mobsters that were after me, so there's that. My boy said we're probably better off without each other.

I love you, on everything, but I read your reply with this face: 😶

I even said my girl was "glorious", as a reference to Gloria, his girl 😕

I was on a game show so I know you cant say shit till afterwards LOL

into telling them about the episode before it aired...asking me mad questions like "so how does it feel to win all that money?" i didn't say i did or didn't win anything LOL

Congrats. You did a hell of a lot better than I would have done.

It's an old Jeopardy cliche, but it looked like the buzzer wasn't treating you well.

www.engadgethd.com - the other stuff i'm looking at

I hope my frustration with my buzzer timing wasn't too obvious.

throw in some categories that I was completely lost on (fucking birds!) and I ended up with a tough game all around. had a blast though and it was still an opportunity of a lifetime.

I just consider that to be racist. We don't know nothing about no birds!!!

If I remember correctly the finals had her a secular Jew, an Asian chick and an Indian boy and the final question was "new testament". I do not believe anyone got the final answer.

Looks like you had fun.

But I chalked it up to being a racist :)

How was the food in the green room?
how was the studio?
did the crew treat you well?
How long did it take to tape the episodes?
Any mishaps?
Were the other contestants cool?

>How was the food in the green room?

Just small snacks like kind bars and chips. I think I downed like a gallon of coffee while I was back there.

>how was the studio?

Small-ish. Maybe seating for around 100 people. And freezing. They keep it super cold in there for whatever reason.

>did the crew treat you well?

Yeah,

>How long did it take to tape the episodes?

Shows take about as long to film as it does to broadcast. Commercial breaks are spent refilming / editing specific questions if he mispronounces something or coughs through a reading. They do five shows a day and they draw names out of a hat as to who will take on the champion. So though the episodes themselves are short, you're there from like 7AM - 5PM because you don't know who's going next. I actually had to come back the next day (the next week IRL) because me and another guy weren't selected out of the original pool of 11.

>Any mishaps?

Not really. Alex was super sick and was losing his voice and was coughing the whole time, so they had to redub a lot of his questions.

>Were the other contestants cool?

Yeah! Way more socially normal than they project on television. I'm FB friends with most of the folks I taped with. You watch all of their games as your waiting for your name to get drawn, so you get super emotionally invested in all of them succeeding lol.

every time i catch a few minutes of the show, i'm thinking damn he looks great. I know it's not the case but it still bums me the fuck out to read this.
