theatrebabe Posted January 17, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Have no idea which night the show will be on your cruise, but I really hope you get picked for it! DH and I were the newly married couple on our honeymoon on the Grandeur in 2009. We had a blast, and felt like celebrities for the rest of the cruise, since people recognized us all over the ship and were chatting with us. It gave us a great opportunity to get to know the activities staff too, and that was a lot of fun. I don't know if we'll ever feel the same way about a cruise as we did about that one! Good luck to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1interpreter Posted January 18, 2015 #4 Share Posted January 18, 2015 The hubby and I have tried to get on this game show twice now. I'm hoping that third times a charm. It would be do much fun. We "play" in the audience and so far we have guessed each others answers correctly. Crossing my fingers that we can get on this time. We sail the Navigator in May.

Rare Lionesss Posted January 18, 2015 #5 Share Posted January 18, 2015 After being on 5 RCI cruises, I have found this event to get so routine. On our last cruise I only made it thru the first 20 min. Same questions. And it seemed as the couples were prompted on their answers. or They already knew the questions from previous sailings. Any way... It does seem the interest for this show is lacking. But To those who want it.................enjoy. Safe travels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also walked out after about 20 minutes on our last cruise as they ask the same old questions (from a pool of around 20) on every cruise. It can't be too hard to come up with some new questions to make it less easy to cheat. Apparently the couple who won it (longest married couple) had also won it on the same ship a few months earlier :rolleyes: Edited January 18, 2015 by Bobal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted January 18, 2015 #7 Share Posted January 18, 2015 We were the newlyweds on the game and I was prompted by cruise staff on what to answer for certain questions. Not all, but some. My wife adheres to no script though and her answers were way funnier :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladysilver Posted January 18, 2015 #8 Share Posted January 18, 2015 My daughter and son-in-law won 1st place on our cruise! See thread below. :D http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2054395 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneputt18 Posted January 18, 2015 #9 Share Posted January 18, 2015 We were picked and won(have the video and counted the points) Somehow they decided the newlyweds were the winners(least points of the three of us). When I questioned the activities director he mumbled something about I score it the way I want. We had no less than a few hundred people come up to us and express their surprise as to how we won and the newlyweds were declared winners.

We have been on cruise's were the questions were the same and also just been on the Vision were almost all the question were different. This was much more exciting and very funny.

Richst48 Posted January 19, 2015 #12 Share Posted January 19, 2015 We did B2B on Serenade for the New Year's cruise and the week after. I believe the Love & Marriage game was on the third night both weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangogulf Posted January 19, 2015 #13 Share Posted January 19, 2015 It's entertainment. So they'll squeeze as much out of it as they can. No one should be surprised that the most popular couple rather than the couple with most points win. What do you really "win" anyway. Having said that I have enjoyed those games I have seen.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk The prizes on Allure for the winners were a matched set of pretty expensive watches. Probably around $1000 for the pair.

yolanda1 Posted January 20, 2015 #15 Share Posted January 20, 2015 We find this particular show very repetitive and boring now. It has been done to death. Great for new cruisers but a bit tired in my opinion. I'd like to see them inject something fresh and new into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But To those who want it.................enjoy. Safe travels We will still go, I'm forever hopeful the CD's will come up with new questions. But for the most part that isn't happening. The same goes for Quest. But for Love and Marriage, you almost gave up after 20 minutes? Carly the CD on Jewel last Spring her entire show was only 20 minutes and it was held between dinner seatings! I'm hopeful for a better show on Freedom. We were the middle couple on Jewel in 2012 and I think we knew at least 1/2 the questions ahead of time. Dennis the CD then did a decent job and we had a good time, I'm hopeful the OP gets picked and enjoyed the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abridalmaven Posted January 20, 2015 #19 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) We were the longest married couple on the game in September on the Adventure. We had a great time.

Clarea Posted January 21, 2015 #21 Share Posted January 21, 2015 So, how do you increase your odds of being chosen as one of the couples? Be as crazy and outlandish as possible during the audition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norwane Posted January 21, 2015 #22 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Thanks Bob! If I haven't said it before - I really appreciate you always being the first to respond with a very accurate answer to my questions! So, we have been married five years, will be in Steampunk costumes with our Steampunk group (think Victorian meets Jules Verne!), and be doing a vow renewal. What are our odds and when are the auditions? Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
