There was a television programme on just now called "Take it All," where contestants win prizes and in the final round, the two contestants say whether they keep their prizes, or "take it all," meaning they steal the other's prizes. The girl gave a sob story about how she wanted to be able to afford to visit her grandmother and donate money to charity because her sister died of brain cancer; the other contestant agreed that they would both keep their prizes and each would walk away with 200+ thousand dollars.

Of course, the guy took it all.

Your post is telling me of three contestants, not two.

My friend, I do not follow. The other contestant was the male, if that is what you meant.

Basically one contestant is a liar.

1. The girl with the sob story.
2. The contest who agreed to go their ways
3. The guy who took it all.

That's what I get.

No. 1 guy and 1 girl. They each have a screen that the other cannot see, where they say "take it all" or "keep what I have." If one says "take it all" and the other does not, he takes it all. If both say "take it all," they both leave with nothing.

Before they entered their decisions, they discussed what they were going to do, at which point, the girl gave her story, and the guy agreed that they would both keep what they had. He then pulled a dagger from his underpants and thrust it into her naive back.

OK. Now it makes sense.

It is kind of like the Prisoner's Dilemma.

Game Theory. Think I'll be reading up on that soon.

It's called Goldenballs you Yank.

My friend, I am watching the American adaptation, hosted by the simply extraordinary Howie Mandel.

I'm sorry, that was unccessarily harsh from me

Thinking of actually spending money to go see the Hobbit. This represents a significant shift in my usual stance.

My friend, your words are but a bitter dose of Pepto-Bismol in comparison to the vitriolic spearheads of dripping poison that I am capable of sending your way.

boom.

Using a regular toothbrush after using an electrical one for months feels strange.

I finally figured out how to put in ear headphones correctly

Finally got around to the new DMC demo.

Gameplay: Fantastic.
Dialogue: Imagine taping a conversation b/w 12 year olds.

Well, it is Japanese. The dialogue in the Final Fantasy games is pitiful as well.

I think Derby have reported my Twitter account, it's been suspended

On what grounds? Copyright? Maybe if you remake it but avoid use of their logo it would be okay.

Got like 300 words left to do for my essay with a solid 6 and a half hours to do it in. For some reason though, my brain has decided 300 words from finished = finished and has gone into full procrastination shutdown.

Sounds like good ol DMC to me.

Watching Traffic Cops on iPlayer and one of the coppers busted a 12 year old weed dealer.

I used to be addicted to those shows, Jordi, I think there wasn't a single one I didn't watch. Watching your old hometown, Slough constantly on Road Wars was good fun too.

Thank god it's Friday, I'm feeling lucky so bought a Euromillions ticket, believing.

I've just remembered I'm working on Christmas Eve 9am till 5:30pm and on Christmas day we have this family coming round with a kid that screams all the time.



Christmas will be disappointing this year.

Even more so I'm not in the spirit at all, which is annoying, feel like I'm forcing myself to get into the mood.

UEFA & FIFA today confirmed, once again that they will continue to recognise Rangers Football Club's history, just like all of the other major footballing bodies.

I'm watching the Inbetweeners USA and it's utterly horrible.
