"The real problems with the TPI"

1) Unless you're a super fan, following the spoilers behind the scenes, you don't have a clue why it's called the Tyler Perry Idol. At this point, I'm pretty sure TP stands for Toilet Paper. It was a shitty twist.

2) They also didn't really explain how it worked TO THE AUDIENCE. Keep the players in the dark. That's fine. But the audience should know what's going on.

3) If you're going to have a Super Idol, you need to get rid of some of the less-super Idols. While Jeff tried to convince us that we were only upset about the TPI because the guy we didn't like found it. Not true. We didn't like the TPI because they guy who already had a mountain of Idols found yet another one. It was BORING. And it would have been boring if anyone else had that many Idols in one game.


Thanks to tribephyl for the sigpic!

And let's throw this in: it's the original version of the idol. The only change is that it can't be transferred. Tyler Perry came up with nothing: he's just grabbing the credit.

Well, as in life...

I don't like the fact that the players were kept in the dark on this one. Giving out only sections of rulebook and rewriting on the fly is a hamster/rat trick -- which shows how far this show has fallen.
