I have only been on this forum for a short while but I see there are contrasting views people have in which they think the banker either tries to save money or to push people for the big money.

Question:
What do YOU think the banker's goal is (for Deal or No Deal)

Choices:
To save himself money?
Push people to go till the end
A bit of both

 

The main aim is to stop people dealing too soon. Low offers are not to save money, but to ensure the player carries on with the game.

I dont quite understand the reason for the thread as we normaly disscuss this on a fairly regular basis. But chobo summed it up

A poll - I wanted to see what % of people think which 1.

The stats up to 600 show totals In Box £13.6 mil
Best offers £17.3 mil Won £10.3 mil -

Tends to show that although banker clearly wants a climatic ending - he is not bothered about the extra cash

I'm confused!

Ignore the best offer figure as it includes offers made after a deal ( with the utmost honesty )
It shows that had the "dealers" held out until the end they would collectively have received 30% more than they did. But individually some would gain and others lose. So as you have only one shot - take the money and run - unless you can afford to lose money.

Where have all the threads gone? Looks as though nobody has posted for a couple of days..... Ooooooh, i'm scared...

Yes, I just noticed that. They were definitely there when I logged on earlier on this morning. Oh dear!

Just noticed that the one remaining "Good Morning" thread is locked too! Does that mean they don't want us to chat at all?
