I just thought I'd stop by and say that your Mr. Bananagrabber avatar made my day.

Yeah, all three would match. Paul's wife would tell the producers her favorite color was blue, Mark would ask Paul what his wife's favorite color was, Paul would say "blue", and Mark would tell John "blue".

It was a long list, like 25 questions. But John only asked 5 of them ("randomly" selected from those 25, naturally).

That's how the Mission was designed. Which isn't to say the entire thing was a sham, which I think it...

Scree, when I said "All three answers had to match???", I meant the three answers from Paul, his wife/GF and Mark!

They showed one, yeah. But dont you think the ratio should have been a lot more than that? It was a huge long list for the split second I saw it.

Did they have to? How else would John know the answers?

But did the producer just skipped all the ones Paul did not answer or did not know, and only quizzed Mark those he actually answered.

Three out of 5 had to match, and yes, they showed John asking Mark a question Paul skipped.

Scree, I don't think it was newly wed game style.
That would be extremely difficult.
All three answers had to match???

Eagle, I was wondering if that was Paul's technique.
He's the one who answered: "I Don't Know!" or "Pass It!", "Skip It!" to many of the questions. (Mark said he did that to two thirds of them, right?)

They didn't show us everything, of course. But did the producer just skipped all the ones...

They asked the family members the questions to get the answers. The Players had to match them Newlywed Game style. The correct answer wasn't what the Player said to their partner, but what the Family member told to producers.

But yes, if a Player had the foresight, they could have told all their friends and family members to say "dragon" to any questions the producers might ask.
