Line 100:
** In earlier episodes, Humph would award points, but they never made sense and were never added up to a total. ("Right, well, it's level-pegging. We move on to...") Sometimes, he'd hand out points for grovelling, sometimes for ''not'' grovelling, points would routinely be reversed if someone on the leading team made an exceptionally lame joke...strangely enough, he stopped giving out points around the same time Samantha was introduced into the show.
* You might expect ''[[Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!|Wait Wait Don't Tell Me]]'' to be like this, but it actually keeps a fairly rigid scoring system. Subverted in that the prize is essentially bragging rights for the panelist. What does matter is how callers do—they get announcer Carl Kassel to record a message on their answering machine.
* ''The Debaters'', on [[CBC]] Radio 1, is a show where comedians debate various topics. "Points are awarded for facts or funny" (and occasionally removed), but the only thing that influences who wins is the audience's applause at the end of each debate.
