Come on, Pat! Or, Vanna

Long, long time ago I got a Spin ID for Wheel of Fortune, so that I, a home viewer, might win some thousands of dollars or a trip to Antigua. How long ago, you ask? My Spin ID had five (5) numbers. Five! 

Well, that number became old or obsolete or some such, no longer viable. So last night I went on-site to re-register. After filling in the blank spaces, I got to “Password.” The site had instructions—must be at least eight letters, at least one capital letter, at least one number and at least one special character. Okay. Submitted a Password did I, as instructed.

Not Good Enough, said red letters, and a red line boxed the Password space. I did it again. Not Good Enough. One more time. Same. Okay, Wheel, you’ve had your chance at giving money and/or a trip to me.

This morning in my Inbox: “Welcome, Bob!” A new Wheel Spin ID. I would have preferred to keep the old one (5 numbers!) because it ID’d me as a long-time watcher. But, somebody else makes the rules. I’ll go with the new one.

Just a guess: BS changes started after Disney became owner of Wheel.
