WWTBAM Bored

So I've been lurking on this bored since I auditioned in Sacramento in June, reading the transcripts and hoping to gain helpful information on the off chance I might be called. It was my first time auditioning and I really wasn't expecting to go far, but I got the call today! I'm so overwhelmed and excited, I don't even know where to start. I can't wait for my boyfriend to get home so I can casually invite him to come to New York with me.

Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself as I'll be around a lot more now! My tape date is September 16, and the show should air around November 24. Now I just need some decent lifelines. I have people in mind, but the landline requirement looks like it might be a problem.

Any tips or helpful comments would be much appreciated!

Congratulations, Good Luck, and Welcome!

We had a very sad Black Monday a while back, but today seems to be shaping up into a Wow-em Wednesday - two calls reported in one day - a newbie and a long-timer!

Congrats and see the other thread if you are interested in my comment on travel and staying in NYC.

Good luck, have a load of fun and win a million!

Go Get 'Em.

And read my suggestions to other lucky ones re familiarizing yourself with the rule changes & how they actually affect players in real time (watch a show on TV or in person under the new rules) before you play.

Alright!!!!!!! Another BB going into the hotseat! Congrats and good luck!!!!

Congratulations!

YAHOOOOOOOOOO!!!

GO GET 'EM!!

Welcome to the Bored! Let me be the first to volunteer to serve as a PAF. I believe I qualify as decent (I'm a two-time Jeopardy! champion and twice correctly answered the million-point question in the Play It! hot seat), and I've served on a PAF list 20 times before. If you're interested, please send me a Private Message.

Congratulations! --Bob

Congratulations! Good luck in the hot seat, and above all, have fun!

If it wasn't a Tuesday, I'd volunteer.

Keep me in mind if you need coverage for Wednesday.

I'll send you a gratuitous congratulations!

Hey, it's the better looking kt and that late, lamented 30 something. And of course someone named for a astrological sign and a Yankee fan. In other words a bunch of WEs with a left coaster.

CONGRATULATIONS from the Old-timer to the New-Timer! I'm taping on Sept. 9 so we will almost cross paths. I auditioned in Sacramento too. Were you in the early or late test group? I was in the early.
