I'm a tad burned out right now (and there's no way I could be there at the right time), but other BBs in SoCal might be interested in checking out this one

DoND is having auditions at the same place at the same time. I guess the rejects from this one can go over there.

Or the DoND producers can do the same, make them audition for both shows at the same time, as they did to fill 1 v 100 mobs.

It still comes up for me, but maybe I have it in my cache from this morning. I copied it and sent it to you via PM.

So there is or is not a show about logic?

Maybe it is about deduction, and is just a series of clues?

It was "credit card." ok, yeah- I went.

Oh, the show is called "20 Q"

They didn't love me.

Well, I also didn't know that the little man smaller than a toaster with a beard in a village, etc, etc, was.....
Papa Smurf. Oops, no spoiler box. Sue me.

:wink:

Any idea on prizes?
Did they manage to make this into a fast-paced game, or is it a slow snore-fest like The Rich List?

I wish I could tell you. That information was reserved for Smurf-lovers only...

They booted my butt right after the test -- 7 or 8 groups of those bizarre clues in 5 minutes.

Overconfidence led me to overfeed my parking meter.

I've never heard of The Rich List. Did it make you rich?

Typical Endemall Interview! After waiting 4 hours at Aqua Caliente Casino 2 yrs. ago for what was billed as One v. 100 and DOND joint tryout, I realized that it only was a DOND cattle drive. The ap recognized me from a prior 1 v. 100 interview and said right away "Steve, I still have your contact information, we will call you if we want you"! Lights out! Why would this person remember me? I was trying hard to forget her! :o

The Rich List aired for one episode back in 2006 and was quickly cancelled afterwards. I tried out, but was not selected. Our beloved BB jsuchard was in the pool, but never had a chance to try for some pretty easy $$$.

Hm. My first with them. They were pretty arrogant. And they made us fill out the most involved 4 or 5 page application I've seen, before we took the test! - I thought I was applying for a position with Homeland Security. Then they didn't even look at it. :evil:
