  1. Rowdydog you were spot on again. GSN is making Wheel of Fortune a leaderboard game. Just what we need another game for the cheaters to rack up more oodles at. When will GSN wake up to this problem? It's just not much fun anymore. No gift cards, over priced prizes and no real chance to get on top of the leaderboards. It may be time to get off this ride.
