Actually, a yarn can simply mean a story. I saw this same puzzle on the Xbox 360 game and figured it would mean something like that. You and your yarn. ... I also noticed... cjbojangles from Golden Road, I presume? |

Looks like Wheel has finally come around to modern times. The category was SONG TITLE.  |

There's some new stuff - including prize plans (the prizes in question include value increases and Bankrupt/LAT protection)

What the HECK?! 🙄😳 Isn't Wheel supposed to be a family show? This sounds like a term the Family Feud writers come up with every day.

OK. I was actually thinking about that definition at first. Thanks a lot TLC... 😏

Just in time for the election, looks like they've added a new location...Washington, D.C.!

I hope they add a filter on bonus round puzzles so that ones with too much RSTLNE aren't included

The addition of DC brought my level up to 170 automatically, but I'm playing it anyway to complete the prize collection. Despite it currently being the last location, the Wheel is very cheap...  |

^My level was brought up automatically, also.
I agree,that wheel is very cheap but it really doesn't matter considering you don't have to earn money to get the souvenirs.
I already earned my 1st completion in DC. I stayed on the gold gift box for many games in a row.

I posted to their page with subtle disapproval. I mean come on there was just no effort put into that wheel at all. They usually have a great variety of wedges but this was just BS

'Official' letter tiers (according to the letter stickers)
AEIOU: Common Letters
RSTLN: Uncommon Letters
BCDGM: Rare Letters
FHPVW: Epic Letters
JKQXYZ: Legendary Letters
I think H should be a Rare Letter. Maybe make it BCDGHM as a reference to CDMA and BGHO, and move Y to the Epic Letter section.

U is a common letter? It's right at the end of "ETAOIN SHRDLU", less common than D and H (also arguably less common than C).

The system they use is only semi-based on real letter frequencies, and the names of each category are based on how much the stickers themselves show up in-game. It groups the vowels together because they're buyable, and the rest of RSTLNE together, probably for theme purposes.

This was under the category SAME LETTER...something that the actual show has never done---starting every word with a vowel. Also, a puzzle that describes MarioGS, wheelgenius, and many others on this site!  |
