Who's Still Standing?/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.



  • Most Annoying Sound: The music played whenever a contestant drops, which sounds like a looped audio recording of pigs being butchered. "Boom, boom, boom-boom... SQUEEEAL! Boom, boom, boom-boom... SQUEEEAL!"
  • Padding: Produced by the bozos who did MTWI, so it's to be expected. The game's meant to be fast-paced, and to be fair it does seem like that, but the execution slows it down in most cases.
  • What an Idiot!: Players were picked by Central Casting. 'Nuff said.
    • A particularly egregious example was a contestant who couldn't guess that the last month alphabetically was September (even with _ _ P _ E _ B _ _ showing) and refused to rattle off the months, only getting it with .2 seconds left. He then failed to guess that Tony the Tiger was Frosted Flakes' mascot, and was gone.
    • One contestant didn't know that the topic of Al Gore's book An Incovenient Truth was "Global Warming", even after most of the letters were revealed.
    • Also applies to the two producers of the show, Craig Plestis and Tim Puntillo, who, as stated above, also produced the mess that was Minute To Win It. Quite frankly, these guys should never be allowed to work in the game show world again.
