NO "MATHEMATICIANS DISQUALIFIED" ON ITS FACE: The Deal or No Deal contestant application is fascinating. I think my favorite free response question is "What is the next milestone in your life if you do not make the show?" Apparently, the producers assume that appearing on Deal or No Deal would, in fact, be a "milestone in your life." Also bizarre is the request for a drawn self-portrait and a "short poem or rap." Most interesting, though, is the disqualifer for "professional gamblers, or [people] who are employed in the gaming industry." Guess they want to avoid people who can, y'know, do the math.
