The Floor- FOX.com

First Contact: Captain

Final Rank: Commander

The Floor returned this week with star Rob Lowe (911:Austin.) The players have been upped,officially making 1 host surrounded by 100 combatants. The show takes a if-it-ain't-broke-don't-fix-it approach. A bunch of pictures are shown in a certain category and two players take turns  guessing until one has used up all their time (45 sec.) on bad guesses or passes (losing a hard 3 seconds off their timer) before the next pictogram appears.

Lowe continues to take a professional,yet mischievous tone, as MC. He’s Serious when needs to be and childishly playful with the contestants-when it counts. It would be nice if got a suit sponsor,so it doesn’t look like he’s wearing the same one week-after-week or taped a bunch of shows at once,as most game shows are prone to do.  

Despite being a big hit last season,payoffs are the same.The players get $20K cash,if they're the best player of the night and if there’s a tie on duel wins, that money is split evenly. The sole survivor wins $250,000.

This continues the main problem with the show,even if you’re doing well, that player may not have much to show for it.Then one bad duel & that player leave penniless. These players should get $1,000 per duel,if they win. That’s only another $100K from FOX,in the show’s meager prize budget.

Next,a sponsored parting gift for $0 contenders,would help. The Millionaire type music could have different versions of “The Randomizer” song,to keep viewers/players spirits up. Also, it wouldn’t kill Lowe to wear a tie on the grand prize show and spice himself up a little.

NASHVILLE STAR WINS $500K ON MILLIONAIRE,WILL HE GO FOR THE MILLION?

EXPOSE: IS A OBSCURE PRIZE CO RUINING YDKJ? CORRECT!

The great and revitalized, party trivia game, is slowly being brought down by Pae Dae. A  Santa Monica, CA prize company that is- both incompetent and uncaring- toward creator Jellyvision's hipster players.

Players on the Facebook community page, have been complaining (since Jack's prize launch, back in late 2012,) that the prizes have been lousy,pricey coupons and/or infrequently awarded, even one properly, achieved the proper milestones to earn them.

This reporter is not immune this problem- as one of the self appointed, top players of the site (over 2 million fake dollars.) Pae Dae owes me a boatload of prizes earned: from getting medals,wining games and leveling up.

So far, I've only received two gifts: coupons from Omaha Steaks and Overstock art.com. I had to spend $100 to get $50 off. Hell, I just won $100 cash from Ralphs Markets, for their Oscar challenge.That glory was, for guessing is year's Oscar winners.So, I must call BS on this f'ed up company. Then, the coupons start to turn into SPAM,because the either constantly remind me to use and/or try to sell me on other items.

I sent numerous messages: to YDKJ Facebook page and instant message responder. Then, they tried a failed attempt to restart the prize giving, from around when the problem started.It was over free Quesso or something. Afterwards, Jellyvision told me deal with Pae Dae directly. I've sent a few messages to them and heard absolutely nothing, from the redemption firm.
Finally, I admit I was pissed at the situation. The last time I wrote Pae Dae, I called the red-haired, welcome page babe, a bitch. She had nothing to do directly with my problem, and I apologize to her.
