Your Own Ideas

Mine is a idea based off Pole Chudes's Plus wedge I like to see the blank letter positions in the puzzleboard as numbers so if we have the plus wedge
We can choose a position to reveal a letter i.e Number 3 or Number 11

How about a timer in the Speed Up round that should speed things up.

That's actually what Greece's version did back in the early nineties. It does seem like an interesting idea as it fits in quite well with the core gameplay under regular circumstances, but I'm rather hesitant about it as I've seen many contestants barely have a chance to play before the Speed-Up. This may minimize their opportunties to play even further. Just something I thought I'd point out to help weigh this option. One thing I'd like to see, however, is more four-digit dollar values in Round 4 such as $1250, $1500, $2000, and maybe even $1750 along with $5000. Heck, maybe even have the top values from previous rounds join them. That way, combined with the $1000 rule in the Speed-Up, contestants will have a better chance of catching up to the leader and walk away with a more-than-modest total even if they don't win the game. Despite this, I understand that may be an expensive action for the show.

Now, speaking of top values, I'd like to see $4000 be the top value for Round 3. I love the concept of increasing the top value every round like the show did back in the nineties with $1000-$2500-$3500-$5000. Having $3500 be the top value for both Rounds 2 and 3 breaks that concept. I don't see much harm with a top-value structure of $2500-$3500-$4000-$5000.

Now another thing that I'd really like to see is in regards to the current Puzzle Board. Since it's now just one giant screen displaying more than just puzzles, the possibilities are virtually endless, such as emulating a retro feel. When Vanna reveals a letter, she can wave across the "box" and it will "turn around" revealing the letter. Going as far as to color spaces for uncalled letters a light grey and turn bright yellow to indicate where the yellow is before the animation? Worth at least a try.

I'd also like to see a window similar to the Express wedge only it's throughout the game. That way, home viewers will see the Puzzle Board throughout the game and play along much more easily rather than have the view constantly cut between the Wheel, the Puzzle Board, and the players. Some international versions such as France, Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom have done this. I know the view of the Wheel may be rather small, but hopefully, viewers will be able to still see what each contestant spun quite well.

That'd be nice. By the way, I misread your original idea of having only the player in control continue to have control after the Final Spin until choosing an incorrect letter. I thought this applied to all three players like Greece's version did.

You know, I've always imagined them doing the Red Letter Puzzles since the debut of the original Electronic Board in 1997. And I would love to see them revive the Red Letter Puzzles today, but do it differently from how it was in the early 1990s. How you ask? If a contestant calls the correct letter (which may appear in the puzzle multiple times), that red letter will be worth an extra $1000 added to the dollar amount they landed on. When I saw them do that on an episode of the Australian version of Wheel with their digital board from 2004, I thought, "What if they tried this on our version and do it exactly the same way as theirs?" It could work. Wouldn't you say?
