This is a game concerning words. He should have pronounced it correctly. "Dependency is commonplace Easy eradication of the human race"-The Acacia Strain, Wormwood I always leave good karma.

Seems that the only word he would be obligated to articulate clearly would be the unsolved word "cabinet". Correct, no matter the pronunciation. Something is going to happen to the corner curio cabinet in 5 days. |

| goldielucks User ID: 794598 United States09/19/2013 05:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Who are you people? Did the shill meeting at Acorn just get out? The guy fucked up the words, he doesn't get the money. Who the hell are you calling shill? Did you just get out of a jail cell? He mispronounced the C and used it as a hard K in CURIO. His gov't skool didn't teach him proper English or perhaps he doesn't know what a CURIO CABINET because he's never heard of one to pronounce it. He did say it to the best of his ability. He deserved it. Poor English or no knowledge of the furniture, we all know he said it. Bet if he was black and using ebonics you wouldn't say shit about his pronunciation and think he deserved it.  |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 6703967 United States09/19/2013 06:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think he got tongue tied because he was excited/nervous. I heard him say "corno curo cabinet". Seriously, he correctly said the word that was missing the letter..."cabinet". If he mispronounced the first two words, all the letters were already up there, so who cares? Wheel of Fortune is not a READING game but a GUESSING game, ie, guess the words with missing letters. These ass wipes should have given him the benefit of the doubt, asked him to repeat, and given him the freakin money. But I've seen them do this before (with not so much money in the balance) where someone mispronounced a fully spelled out word and they buzzed the person. Punks. I feel his pain. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1357175 United States09/19/2013 06:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | How'd he "get screwed out of a million dollars"? Quoting: Okie For one, all that piece provided was the CHANCE to play for a million dollars in the bonus round, IF he won the game and made it to the bonus round and IF he then happened to pick the million dollar envelope from the bonus wheel and then IF he solved and won the bonus round. Sounds like a looooooooong way from being screwed out of a million dollars like he was owed it for just landing on that puzzle piece. Also, the game has ALWAYS required that the puzzle be stated exactly as written. No adding an extra letter, no adjectives nor adverbs, no pluralizing, no anything other than reading it exactly as it is. Even when it's spelled completely out. The guy wasn't screwed out of anything by anyone. He messed up. His fault. Sucked for him, but it was strictly on his own shoulders for being too nervous or whatever else and FAILING at that moment. It's called a consequence of your own actions. No one screwed him out of anything, he just messed up and cost himself. Sheesh... Besides... the guy with the real accent... pronounced it.  Exactly. OP must be a tard. |
