The dond.co.uk RTaB host's exact words: "Ctrl-Alt-Down is awesome. He's a genius. But, jumbling the squares is a really bad way to host. Maybe he likes it, but the players won't. Tell him that."

The forum.easterviking.com RTaB host's exact words: "In response to 'the dond.co.uk RTaB host', the worst thing that you could possibly do as a host of RTaB is to block the thread off from guests. If you want people to join then it's obvious that you shouldn't make people register just to view their posts. And if you think that jumbling up the board is a bad idea then you are definitely going to have a mental breakdown when you actually get on Deal Or No Deal and you see that all the boxes are mixed up."29403 wrote:The dond.co.uk RTaB host's exact words: "Ctrl-Alt-Down is awesome.

Oh, and Ctrl+Alt+Down is so obviously awesome. It's the best square EVER.

On Deal or No Deal, the boxes are in numerical order. And in all probability, no one in the thread or even on these forums, will never be on Deal or No Deal. But I don't see how that relates to your argument. Everyone hates the jumbled board. I don't know what possessed you to it.999_Springs wrote:The forum.easterviking.com RTaB host's exact words: "In response to 'the dond.co.uk RTaB host', the worst thing that you could possibly do as a host of RTaB is to block the thread off from guests.

29403 got his original quote from the UK Deal Or No Deal forums, which were the original site of RTaB (I think). I'm replying to their views of this thread. I have no idea how news of this thread managed to get over there. And in the UK, the boxes on Deal Or No Deal are definitely NOT in numerical order. If they don't like it then they shouldn't be watching the show.bufar wrote:On Deal or No Deal, the boxes are in numerical order.

Perhaps I should have sent that thing in a PM to 29403 instead of posting it here.

bufar's probably referring to the US version.
This isn't Deal or No Deal. This is RTaB, as far as I'm concerned, so the squares are much more convenient in order. It's making things convienient here, not making life difficult. Please, for me, for the players finding it hard to follow the square... just make it normal!
The squares are on metartab now. I finally found some time. :D
The Ctrl-Altl-Down squares... I need to find some time... I'm busy most weekends, and I have coursework. (I hate your essays every week, Madame French Teacher.) Probably by the Christmas Holidays... but I'm studying then. I'll try for then.

*SIGHHH* Right. Fine, then. I'm going to have to give in to all of you little weak-minded bunch of annoying *BEEEEEP* now. The board will self-transform back into its degenerate state of boring numerical order then. Just whatever makes you happy.

Everything you pick gets minused from your score. And you can't self-timeout.

Ok, thanks anyway. You still forgot a few squares though... And my advice about French: DON'T DO IT past GCSE.
