Well...I went to a final audition two weeks ago. It went very well. I got there early, sat on the front row, clapped until my hands were raw. When it was my turn I solved the puzzle from start to finish. I was VERY enthusiastic! I feel I got about 9 on the test right. I was not asked to stay and feel the ones they did ask to stay were for a better look at them. They even told me bye by my name. How concerned should I be if I haven't received a letter by now...day 14. I've been stalking my mailbox like nobody's business lol. Thanks for any input.

I was wondering if the CCs look at anything from the wheel mobile event in considering contestants? Literally during my final audition I only got called to stand up once, and they commented “nice voice”, I called two letters that were up there and then an incorrect letter and sat down. That was it. Not another chance like they did with some people and then I didn’t get called to stay after the written test. However, I ROCKED my wheelmobile audition. But I’m not getting good vibes since I didn’t even have a chance really to show them anything. Is this the end of the road? I guess I’ll find out in less than two weeks.🤷🏼♀️

Hirsk26, you made a video though I assume? I'm thinking they *must* have some record or notes of Wheelmobile, because I had a very similar experience to nikki - Had one turn, called a couple letters (I don't think I solved -- "hit" bankrupt), took the test, then was dismissed. Got the letter exactly 2 weeks later.

Hey everybody! I'm new and wondering if there's anyone on here that was at the New Orleans audition on May 23rd? I'm waiting on THE LETTER and have one more day until I make the 2 week mark (would have been today, but mail doesn't come on Memorial Day). If any New Orleans audition people are on here have you gotten THE LETTER yet?

Nope 10:30. I think I did well on everything except the written part. For the puzzles, I was quick with my letters to keep things moving, so they know I can play. I had 2 puzzles, one I got 2 or 3 letters then spun a legit lose a turn. The second time I spun until only vowels were left and solved for a hat. Just worried about the test, I think I got 5-7. We’ll know in the next week. Still nothing today though. Im lucky I have a super busy job, Im not sure I could handle being at home waiting for the mail to come.

I feel the same. I thought I did well when guessing letters, solved the puzzle and got a little tote bag. It felt like I was standing for a while so I think they had plenty of time to make a decision about me one way or another. I'm not sure how many I got on the test, but if I had to guess I would say roughly the same as you. Good luck! I hope you hear something soon.

You too, I’m out of town until Sunday but I’ll update when I get back. I didn’t know anyone else at the audition, but hopefully others post here.

Nothing in Saturday's mail, unless Wheel of Fortune is sending me some message through Chase Bank. 4 more days of waiting.

Me either, haven't read anything anywhere about anyone getting one though, so there's still some hope left, but we're outside of the 2-3 week window.

Hi everyone!
I just auditioned today in NYC and I must say this group definitely helped a lot in preparing me for it! I clapped non-stop (my hands were becoming numb!) and solved a puzzle. I also solved all 16 puzzles on the written test (not sure if they were all right..some rhyme time ones are weird) which was a huuuuge relief for me because that was my biggest obstacle back when I auditioned in 2012. I wasn't asked to stay, but when I was leaving, I asked if I could switch my prize and Jackie (I think) asked what grade I taught, which I took as a good sign??
Here's to the longest 2 weeks ever...meep!

I went to final auditions in Denver in January & got my magic letter on day 15, so I’m still playing the waiting game, wondering when I’ll get the call (or email)? I had gone to several Wheelmobile events over the years & was called up on stage in 2015. Hoping all my practice helps me out!
