 Starcade   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
As for Geoff not knowing video games, I think it was just the opposite...he seemed quite knowledgeable, probably because he was one of the few older people (40+) who actually played on a regular basis.
When Geoff Edwards came in 1983, the show greatly improved (not only with a host that knew his stuff and had hosting experience), but one who could be supportive, the show took off.
Mark Richards was a little too uncomfortable on the show, but Geoff Edwards does a great job as host, and I compare him to Marc Summers in that he doesn't act fake or hip/cool to the children, he just is genuine.

 The New Treasure Hunt
At Geoff's command, they popped them, and the woman who found a star inside her balloon then got the chance to come onstage and face the returning champion for a chance to pick a box (there were, obviously, only two jacks-in-the-box, and the challenger always got first pick).
After the contestant selected her box, there was a 15 minute production break, during which time Geoff was briefed about the content of the skit attatched to the chosen box, and the contestant was isolated with a Standards and Practices official and a PA from Barris's staff.
According to Geoff, his "evil" plans included giving a contestant a new car...and then telling her that all she won was the windshield.
