Arrested Development Ugh GIF

Especially when theyre taking a minus

Especially when the minus is a huge amount/the prize pot isnt that large!!

Oh, I think it should be a capital offence. I went high 😊

Greedy bastards aren't they. I'd start booing from the panel if that was me. Though I do love it when they encourage them to take a higher amount, knowing they will lose.

The second anyone (wanker) takes the low offer I am straight to twitter to enjoy the outrage.

Why go on the bloody show if you are going to be pathetic?

What I really enjoy is other contestants who have gone before the wanker and are openly furious with the low offer acceptance...

@TheEyesOfLucyJordon how much and did you win??? 👀

What made me laugh today was the low offer wanker who rushed in and answered

'Who released a book about gardens with Chelsea Clinton...' saying 'Alan Titchmarsh'

The guy who got a score of 10 looked like he wanted to burst out laughing

Theres a special place in hell for such people I reckon 😄

I always think there should be a vote from the panel as to whether they want to have them back or evict them from the team!

Yes!

And they should be able to hiss at the contestants even pondering it

Sometimes it's the right decision.

sometimes the player is more use in the end game than a little extra cash.

but mostly they're selfish wankers!

didn't see it today. I really like 'beat the chasers' more now!!

Remember the low-offer bloke who Ann openly called a cowardly weasel of a man!

They won but no thanks to him 🤢🤢

I don't like it when they frame it as "it's only minus £2,000" or whatever the low offer is, ignoring the money they have to play for in the default position, if they got 6 questions right, there is no option to play for zero (only if you get no questions right at the start being the exception), at that point it's minus £8,000 not just minus £2,000.

It was actually Beat The Chasers (where you play as a single player against a number of Chasers). I took the highest offer of £100k and lost put by five seconds 😬🤦‍♀️

It was Beat The Chasers. I played The Vixen, The Beast, The Menace, The Sinnerman and the Super Nerd (Anne was off ill with Covid). The Dark Destroyer got to sit it out for my game 🙂

It can work out though.

DH was on it, last player took the minus offer, but they then won the final chase with the chaser only needing one more and the guy who took the minus answered two sport questions DH and the woman didn’t know. They played for £1k each less because of his minus, but had he not got back (and he only just got back) they’d have won nothing.

AbzMoz · Yesterday 22:41

I can just about get on board with the tactics (while still screaming at the tv), but I do NOT understand the people who apparently dream of something costing a fair chunk, say £20k plus, and then they go for the low offer…
Who do they expect will fund the dream of theirs then?!

Henseleven · Yesterday 22:49

Low offer is fine. The minus offer people just need to fuck off. What’s the point in getting to the final? One extra rung on the ladder? But they’re as a thick as mince so it all evens out.
