Banoodles

Does anyone know which year "Banoodles", the monkey within the 50c suitcase, was named? I think it was either 2005, or early 2006... Megan102 09:41, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pic

I updated the pics because I didn't like the idea of the "Prime" logo being displayed, it's Channel Seven. And the pics were old, so I captured a recent one, 2006.

And with the information you should say that it's a Melbourne show because only Melbourne residents can attend the show due to auditions and that.

--Jamesbehave 09:10, 6 March 2006 (UTC) This show is very addictive--59.167.193.130 00:14, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The 'Only Melbourne' idea is incorrect. The show I attended had a contestant from Queensland in the Dealadrome. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.190.134.88 (talk) 13:34, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

#26 and "boo-yeah"

Does anyone have any idea why "boo-yeah" is shouted by the audience for case #26? What is the significance of that case? I can find no reason in my searches. --Monotonehell 14:47, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have absolutely no idea either! RaNdOm26 04:03, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you consider the selection process at the start of each show, the chosen block of people are assigned cases 1-25 and the individual randomly selected person always gets to hold the #26 case. This might be the significance of that case... PantsCorp 11:56, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Years that the "bonus features" were introduced

What years were Chance, Megaguess, and Supercase introduced? I'm guessing that it was 2005 as 2004 was very "simple". Swanny 03:31, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re-write

I just re-wrote the lead. If you're not satisfied with what I did, you can add it back, but give reasons why it should be better. RaNdOm26 06:47, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Criticisms

I removed the Criticisms again as there is no source as to where the information is coming from and the article doesn't deserve a one-person opinion. I'm not trying to be nasty but it is just a single statement and it is not nearly enough information to have a whole section devoted to it. Before adding in the section again, re-write it and add a proper point of view to it. You can't simply just criticise the show for what it is actually about without adding further statements to it. Swanny92 05:37, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What the heck is Megaguess?

The section of this article on the "Megaguess" bonus feature lists statistics about said feature but contains absolutely no info on what said feature actually is. -TPIRFanSteve 01:34, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:DOND Australia Josh's 10c offer.JPG

Image:DOND Australia Josh's 10c offer.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Lack of correct spelling and grammar

This article is in serious need of a spell check and proof read. I saved it for later viewing, and all the mistakes in it promptly turned me off of it. Come on, we can do better! Douglas C 01:07, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Have started with the worst area Re: this issue: Beating the Game. Has had a bit of a makeover. Roll back teh changes if you feel the need to do so, but please provide a good reason. Douglas C 04:25, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Total revamp of article

I just revamped the article. Previous versions were just overflowing with trivia, poorly laid out, and not much care put into it, so I hope people are satisfied with it. If not, just reply to this. Swanny92 (talk) 14:11, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You did remove a lot of information that was there before in "Evolution of the show" section. More information about this in the "History" section. Especially for the changes in 2006 and 2007, there isn't much info now than it was before. Mention in 2007 about changes to the supercase values, the change to the Double or Nothing rule, and the new Ugly Betty models in its first week. RaNdOm26 (talk) 14:23, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

10-cent deal?

I've seen an episode on Youtube where a person who took out the top four values in round 1 get a deal of 10 cents form the banker. Is this already on, and if it isn't, was it deleted, or has no one put it on yet? Is it suitable for inclusion...?

Psychic special

Perhaps it should be mentioned that the psychic actually chose the 50cent case. It's quite ironic, could it be squeezed into the article somewhere? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.210.64.214 (talk) 06:37, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deal or No Deal Top Prize Winners

The names and cases are listed, but not the actual prize money won? Shouldn't that be listed? DanielLaRusso45 (talk) 07:52, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
