However I find it very unfair and somewhat demoralizing that contestants do not receive the $250 awarded them for their "pointless" answer while competing
during the general competition. When a competing couple has been fortunate enough to provide that all illusive "pointless" answer and been awarded $250 for their answer, their winnings gets added to the night's jackpot for them or one of the other contestants to win during the big showdown. It's really unfair bc the "pointless" round winners may not win latter and they actually seem to be being penalize twice for winning/losing. I think if a couple offers a "pointless" answer during the game, the $250 should be theirs. It should be their winnings, separate from the jackpot. It makes no sense to tie it to the jackpot, none.
