Alright, so I'm absolutely addicted to the Wheel of Fortune game on Facebook (even though it wants me to give them real money to buy fake money to buy more fake money so I can buy fake trips so I can have things like the Jackpot or the MDW on the wheel...). Sure, if I leave the page for a while, it'll say CHEAT DETECTED for some reason (I think it's because it detects if Flash has been paused, and if it does, the "cheatDetected= true" flag is triggered or something), but it's so darn fun (even if I have to wait 8 hours to be able to play more episodes if I go through them all fast... or I could buy them with fake money that I bought with real money...).
However, something odd happened recently. The main game went normally, however the bonus puzzle's category was LIGHTNING ROD. I was confused, then the game started showing all the instances of RSTLNE in the puzzle (for those that haven't played it, for some reason the bonus puzzles always have a lot of RSTLNE in it. Seriously, sometimes I've only had to pick one letter and the whole puzzle would be complete) and it spelled out L___TN_N_ __LT. I then said to myself "Seriously?", and picked my consonants and vowel-- G, H, B and O. L_GHTN_NG BOLT. I filled in the puzzle, LIGHTNING BOLT, and was awarded the $5,000 (not spendable at all) the game gives you for getting the Bonus Puzzle. And I sit here, wondering why I didn't take a screenshot.

You're not the only one. I took some shots of this incident when I had this happen.

That strange category was probably a one-day technical difficulty...wait, you still have the game on Facebook? I don't...

^ They merged the game into GSN's game package. I don't like the new version — way, way, way too easy. ALBERT EINSTEIN has no business being a bonus puzzle, especially when miscategorized as Person.

Yeah, the bonus puzzles are WAY too easy. Almost every one of them have multiple instances of RSTLNE in them.

ALBERT EINSTEIN? Oh, I am NEVER EVER playing this version ever again (I only played it once and I didn't like it anyway)!

This new version.... Is REALLY crappy. I've been hitting a LOT more penalty wedges in the front game than the old one, and the bonus puzzles are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too easy.
