This has been discussed by other contestants multiple times before. Yes, this place is often mentioned by name during the briefing.
Ironically, it was not brought up during Bobby's taping.

I was the only one that raised my hand when the person with legal asked if anybody has been on this message board. Just to be clear, how specific was the question? Was the board called out by name or was it generic internet message boards and chatrooms? It definitely was. She said, even if we just looked at the site once. I raised my hand and she wrote my name down. Maybe, I had a bad mentality going into the Wheel, but I didnt want to go viral for the wrong reason, so I did what everyone does- I Googled and it brought me to this site. |

^Do they consider it a good or bad thing if you've visited this site? Do they think you're going to try and cheat "the system"?

^Do they consider it a good or bad thing if you've visited this site? Do they think you're going to try and cheat "the system"? It's fine. It's not a bad thing at all, they just want to be sure if there is more than one person that is a member of the site, that they appear on separate shows that day to prevent any possible collusion. They are very strict about all contestants not mentioning anything on any social media sites or this site about air dates until we get the green light to do so from Wheel PR, roughly two weeks from air. Of course, no outcomes can be discussed. |

FWIW, there were two different people representing legal on my standby and tape dates. We were asked specifically about BAV on the standby date (which is how I learned of y'all), but not on my tape date. I can't remember who I asked later if they didn't care anymore about it (one of the contestant coordinators), and they said one of the legal people cares more about it than the other. So *shrug*.

I still find it weird we've been singled out.  |

That makes sense. The regular S&P person was VERY pregnant on September, so she probably left for maternity leave, and the new person probably is temporary and not as familiar with BAV, hence the lack of a mention. |

So that explains why Bobby and Anthony's taping in November didn't mention it, then.

The regular S&P person was VERY pregnant on September I REALLY appreciate all the additional info in this thread, seriously, it's good to know these things running the day to day ops of this place. That said, the line I quoted, in particular, made me laugh a ton, made me think of this clip: |
