Hello BAVers! Simply wanted to check in and introduce myself.
Name's Ethan Musulin; was a contestant on Wheel on October 21, 2004 (or October 22 if you were on the west coast; thanks Monday Night Football). Was definitely an exciting experience! Even when I was flubbing up my rehearsal game.
Hoping to take some time whenever I'm not workin my ass off to check in and see how things are going here. Here's to enjoying it!

Florida Week 2004 definitely had a lot of big winners, but I was the only player that week to solve the Bonus Round. Also proud to say that I hit the "Spin Cycle." What is the Spin Cycle you may ask? It is when you land on:
1. A Top Dollar Value
2. Lose a Turn
3. Bankrupt
4. A prize
5. The Free Spin
6. A round specific space (Mystery Wedge, Jackpot, et al)
At least that's what I think the Spin Cycle would be.

These days, I think the spin cycle would be:
1. Top dollar
2. Lose a Turn
3. Bankrupt
4. Prize
5. Free Play
6. Million Dollar Wedge
7. Wild Card
8. Round specific wedge
9. Both 1/2 Car plates
Welcome, Ethan! You're in good company here, we hope you'll stay a while.

See? That's why I was able to hit The Cycle so easily back in the day cause there wasn't so many chachkies on the wheel!  Least I was proud to be one the few players to have a Free Spin.  |

Would the cycle require hitting both Mystery Wedges?

I don't think so, since only one actually matters.
