Is it just this humble player, or have the Countdown games been trending more toward the unplayable from their overemphasis on entertainment?
It seems like this trend has resurfaced this month, and last night at 10pm ET, the Countdown game had 8 of its first 10 questions on pop culture.
Since BT shut down its boards, they may not have noticed backlash from the players, but as Ronald Reagan once said, players will "vote with their feet." I might reduce my play to Wednesday and Thursday night Six, doing both my wallet and liver a huge favor.
What say you, fellow members? Am I observing anomalies, or is Carlsbad back to its old exasperating ways?
I noticed the same result on several games this week. I did vote with my feet and came home last night. That saved me about 60 bucks, but unfortunately my favorite waitress did miss her nice tip that she would have gotten.
IMHO, it will not matter what we think, nothing will change unless we vote with our feet and let our sites know why. Then, if the sites start pulling the games out will BT get the message. With the management and attitudes that they have in place now, they still may not figure it out.
I will add that the reps that I have met are not in that category. It's just too bad that they aren't in a power position.
