Good luck tomorrow, Sanam! I know you'll do great! ;D Just remember to have fun, stay relaxed, and think positive thoughts. If it helps, picture yourself winning the million!

Sanam, my dear, it's crunch time. A few things I want to say... 1) in general: remain calm, be "real" in your responses, remember frequency of letters, don't spin once for the minimum if the previous player blows it (go all the way if you want to, unless it's the Prize Puzzle and you know the solution, in which case solve right then), use Free Play properly, picture victory, mention us to the other players in the green room, use BGHO in the Bonus Round (but that's your choice), and have fun.  2) here's how you should say hello to us (or something similar): "I would like to give a shout out to all of the Wheel of Fortune lovers out there for all of their support."3) this is another silly thing, so ignore it if you want: mention Todd Russell at some point, likely during the Speed-Up if it's really early and/or you can't think of an answer. Why? Because five years ago, some guy promised to "personally award" a $2 bill (yes, they exist) for mentioning Todd Russell on Wheel, and he needs to pay up.  I'll explain why after your taping. Now get out there and destroy the budget! ;D |

Don't worry about the puzzles in the Compendium. Lots of those puzzles (at least the older ones) will never be used today (or will only be used for toss-ups and the Bonus Round) due to various reasons. You sure about that? You'd be surprised. |

Not that contestants have any control over it, but would you rather have the stronger of your two opponents before or after you in the turn sequence?

What do you mean by stronger? Stronger spinner? Higher total? Better player overall?

Pretty hard to say. Assuming the stronger player wins the $2,000 Toss Up, then the player before them would start the Prize Puzzle round. One penalty spin or wrong letter and the game is all theirs', and since the starter of the round likely gave them a lot of help, the third player of the PP round would probably have little chance of winning it...so I'd have to say I'd rather have the best player go after me rather than before.

Hi everyone! I'm back! As much as I'm dying to reveal details of my episode I'm not going to. What I can promise you is that you will think I am a complete moron at least one or two times in the game. I have an email out to CU with some details. I tried my best to memorize the wheel but my nerves got the best of me.

As long as you tried your best. Do you know when your show will air? If you do, I'll fix the date for the star. |

Hey, what do you know...your show airs on my birthday! And don't worry about getting bashed too much. Someone bashes hard, I then bash...hard. (I find that first thing pretty funny...not to mention you taped your show on my brother's birthday. Go figure. ) |

OK. Now that this is over and done with, details from Sanam and relevant discussion, once approved by cu, will go in "Spinning Stories". Any questions anyone has for her regarding S30 changes will go in the normal S30 info thread.
