So, some of you don't like the $500/$550/$600 cluster on WOF. I agree, it is not very appealing. That's why I made this revision. Credit to MarioGS and wheelgenius for the wedges. This is the bare wheel. The grey spot alternates (the TDV) but with different values than WOF. For fellow Canadians, if you watch CP24, you'll understand the ending statement... It's 4:58 and 14 degrees, this is Toronto's Breaking News, CP24. More on Royce's revision of the Season 32 Wheel on Live at 5, probably around halfway through the show. First up on Live at 5, we'll have an update on the condition of Mayor Rob Ford. *****I will create a Rob Ford thread in the Mr. Irrelevant section (I saw that I can post anything there), as I am a supporter of Mayor Ford, and am hoping for the best - he has a rare cancer (liposarcoma), and is starting intense chemo today.***** Thanks, Royce (awesomesolver)

I don't like the three Lose a Turns in the Wheel, especially the fact that they are so near between them... The rest is cool, although a $750 or another $550 could have been cool (I'm observing that you have not introduced any wedge in a new color, they are exchanged between positions).

Round 1: Round 2: Round 3: Round 4 (if necessary - more often than not we see Final Spin right when Pat says the category of the puzzle): I overwrote it by accident, replacing it with the one I made for Final Spin. So, remove all add-ons but Free Play, and change $5000 to MarioGS' $7500 wedge. Final Spin: Bonus Round Concept Coming Soon!!

The rest is cool, although a $750 or another $550 could have been cool (I'm observing that you have not introduced any wedge in a new color, they are exchanged between positions). Yeah, the 3 LATs are a bit awkward, and yes, definitely an issue with the (short) distance between them... As an eventual hopeful contestant, I had to figure out whether I'd want a 2nd Bankrupt or a 3rd LAT. I picked the LAT because it's (usually) less harmful than the Bankrupt. To your point of different wedges, I mainly wanted to re-organize the current Wheel. Plus, I wanted it to be as close to S32 as possible, with less awkwardness (as in the $500/$550/$600 cluster) and therefore decided to use only the wedges seen in Season 32. For that, I used the wedges MarioGS made, under Real Wheels pg 1, the S32 wedges only. So, you are correct that I have not introduced a new wedge and/or colour. Except for the TDV, and the TDV wedges are also by MarioGS. Yes, technically, I just changed the positions of the wedges. But I did re-invent the wheel for Final Spin I am glad you think it's cool Thanks, Royce (awesomesolver)

All I can say is I'm glad the show doesn't let you design the wheel lol. The three LAT's wouldn't be bad if they were spaced out but they're all just outside a 1/4 of the wheel. Then throw in the MDW and you're just begging for the show to be renamed Wheel of Misfortune. Round 3 has way too much blue, I know FP and Express change colors but it's still too much. The Final Spin idea is nice but I could never see them stopping the show mid round just to put that layout on there especially for one spin. Maybe add zeroes to those amounts and make it a layout for the bonus round.

Maybe add zeroes to those amounts and make it a layout for the bonus round. Hmm... I see your point. What if they took a commercial break after the 3rd Toss Up, and (this part usually is the case) ring the Final Spin bells right after the puzzle has been revealed? The layout would be placed there during the 'break' (yes, I know that it's all taped, not live). Or during the 'break' before the 3rd toss up (that break already exists, I think) and they could use a dry-erase marker to write in the extra zeroes? They probably wouldn't go for it though. Harry Friedman wanted to cut costs, right? I think I read that somewhere on BAV Boards. That Final Spin round could be called "As long as Pat doesn't hit $10,000 you still have a good shot at winning" Thanks, Royce (awesomesolver)

Really? Dry erase? Please tell me you're being sarcastic. It's still a bad idea especially if you get some quick solves and you end up on round 5 or 6

You can't spend any of that, so you need to spin the wheel.

awesomesolver It would be nice to remove one Lose A Turn and add $750, $850, and $950 on your wheel.

That section does have its limitations...we generally frown upon politics and religion. Understood. After all, people can Google the latest news. I am often called Mr. Literal, so I was literal and took the description of Mr. Irrelevant as "talk about anything". I was hoping to be like a news reporter (no opinions) but yes, I now can see it would have sparked a bit of an unhealthy argument. *****I apologize, and will not create that thread*****

awesomesolver It would be nice to remove one Lose A Turn and add $750, $850, and $950 on your wheel. I'll see what I can do. That 3rd LAT is kind of a bad thing, considering the placement of the penalty wedges.

I'm not so sure about the three LATs, but it could be better than the wheel having two Bankrupts, let alone two more on the MDW.

Very true, atrocalypse . Kinda balances the ratio of Bankrupts to LATs... But the spacing could be better, now that I think about it Thanks, Royce (awesomesolver)

Here's how I would've done the S32 Wheels, assuming no extra wedges/tokens are retired or added, same gameplay structure, and vowels $500 at most. Basically my HYO Wheels but closer to the show while still satisfactory for most fans, hopefully. Bare: Round 1: Round 2: Round 3: Round 4+:

...I still don't get what's with the fascination over $950. Make the math easier and make it an even $1000, I say.
"Vowels worth nothing, consonants worth...we'll add a thousand to that, $1,950 apiece..." Scoreboard operator: "Well, s*&T."
