What dollar wedges would you like to see?

$700 should've never left, $750 and $1,500 should definitely come back. $1,000 needs to make a return as a regular (read: not a special wedge) cash amount.

I don't think $125s will fly on the syndicated run (especially since they don't seem to care for the -50s much). Similarly, I don't foresee $650 or $850 ever coming back. $1,250 however would be a nice addition to the wheel.

$250 should come back as a wheel value as well. I don't really see a particular reason for why it would've been removed before. Besides, there's WAY too many $300s and bringing back $250 would at least project an image of value diversity.

I think round 4 could use an upgrade also. Move the $5,000 to Round 3 and put a gold $7,500 (more likely budget-wise) or $10,000 out for the last rounds.

Those are definitely some values I'd love to see, but here's what I'd like that you didn't mention.

Inspired by PYL and its revival, $475 (based off of $470, but only to make it a multiple of $25), $1100, $1200, $1400, $1750 and $2250.

There's no doubt in my mind that I want to see daytime's $1250 and $2000 finally make a nighttime appearance.

And what about $950? Yes, I saw it on some of the set stuff from the late 80s and early 90s, but never as a playable value. It's the only three-digit mutiple of $50 I haven't seen as a playable value on American Wheel. In fact, the only version I've seen it as a playable value was on Finland's version, Onnenpyörä.

$700 definitely, and also $750 in rounds 1 and 2, $1,000 in round 3 and $1,500 in round 4. To me odd and random amounts like $530 or $1,050 aren't that necessary. I also say keep $3,500 but I think the big money space progression should be $2,500 in round 1, $3,500 in round 2, $5,000 in round 3, and $6,000 in round 4.

$700 was only downgraded to $500 to match the other 1/2 car...

I would love to see at least $1000 or $1250 back in the first three rounds. Perhaps also $1500 in Round 4 onward. Yes, I think it's time for $5K to go somewhere else, since it's been there since 1983, and inflation would drive it to around $10K now.

Because the show has a budget.

Nobody DOES want less money on the wheel, but there's a budget WoF has to stick to and if there's too much money on the wheel, the show won't be able to last.



Actually, it's been in Round 4 since 1986, it's been in Rounds 3+ from 1983 - late 1985 or early 1986.

^ Otter is right. Until about 1990, or possibly later, there were games where they played two rounds in the second segment, with $5,000 not showing up until Round 5.

Of coutse they have a budget, every show does... if they spend too much, they have to lower the amounts and if they spend too little... good for them.

If there wasn't a budget, where would the show be? There's a reason there's only one four digit amount per round...

I would like to see the $2,000 space return and bring back Free Spin.
