[Deleted]

Checking in

[dad90]

This game will be put ON HOLD due to Hurricane Irma approaching South Florida, where I live.

[dad90]

We're have recovered nicely from Hurricane Irma, and I'm planning to begin the game either next week or the week after.

[dad90]

The show will start on Monday.

Burton: And now, it's the return of the game of high stakes, where every decision is a gamble, and every move could be your last...

It's...





SUPER HIGH ROLLERS!

And here's your host, the man who wants our current President to be Impeached in 25 days or less. The one with all of the action, Dayo Kayode!

(DK walks out the 3 dice as audience cheers and applause)

DK: Thank you, Burton Richardson! And good morning, one and all, and welcome to Super High Rollers, where the game of skill, strategy, sabotage...



...and these 3 unpredictable dice have gone to a whole new level!

[dad90]

I want to say in advance, HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Yes, the Holidays are here, starting with Halloween, so I should say Happy Halloween in advance. Now, let's get this holiday party started by meeting our players.

First, we have mringgenberg, aka Matt!

Matt, tell us about yourself, and what are you going to do on Halloween and the other Holidays...

[mringgenberg]

I'm a supermarket clerk from Council Bluffs, IA. I'll be handing out candy for Halloween.

[dad90]

That's good to hear, and stay safe at night, OK?

Now, our next player is Raymond as in bowlerraymond.

Raymond, tell the nice folks about yourself, where you're from, what you do, and what are planning to do on Halloween and for the rest of the holidays...

[Deleted]

Bump

[dad90]

I need a replacement for Raymond since he hasn't logged on in a month.

[joshallington]

I will be the replacement

[dad90]

Go ahead, joshallington. Tell us about yourself.

[joshallington]

Well I'm a high school student and I like to collect hockey cards

[dad90]

Nice to have you here, and good luck on our show tonight. And to finish off the trio is our current champion, who so far has won $28,963 in cash and prizes, it's jman8606, aka James!

(audience applause)

First of all, to those who don't know about you, tell us about yourself, and what are you going to do for the Holidays...

and after that, I want to know that on our last show, you actually beat the "Drive to 25" bonus game for a brand-new car and could've retired right then and there, so why did you give it back to me? Was it for the Hot Jackpot of $255,000?

[Deleted]

Yes it was and for a better car! And I love playing this game! Anywho, my name is James Greek, I am from East LA (as in Lower Alabama) I enjoy game shows, music, classic TV, and I like you want the president to be impeached.

[dad90]

Yes, indeed, James, as the sooner we impeach the President as much as we did to Richard Nixon, the better.

Well, these are our players for today, so let's hear it for them!



Now we got ourselves a game to play, but first, we have to go over the rules real quick.

We have 3 rounds of gameplay: Qualification, Elimination and Championship, and the object is try and eliminate as many of the 12 numbers as you can.

In the first round, the Qualification Round, we have the 12 numbers lined up like this...

[1]--[2]--[3]--[4]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[9]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]

And underneath the 12 numbers hide prizes, but 2 of them hide 2 halves of a prize that is worth more than $5,000.

Now, to win any prizes at all, you have to win the round, and you can do that in 2 ways:

1. Clear the Last Number(s) off of the board.
2. Force your opponents into a Bad Roll.

If you can do either of that in this round, you'll be moving on to the Championship Round, while the other two will be moving on to the Elimination Round.

However, we're going to take a commercial break right now, and when we come back, we'll get the first round underway on Super High Rollers, so stay with us.

(audience cheers and applause)

[dad90]

[dad90]

[dad90]

DK: We're glad to have you back, and to our players, we've loaded the board up with more than $17,000 in prizes!

(audience cheers and applause)

Now players, in order to get control of the dice, you must answer a Toss-Up question, in which in this round, they are all Multiple-Choice.

So without further ado, here's the first question of the day, and it goes a little something like this...

'Here's my story, sad but true, about a girl that I once knew.' Those are the beginning lyrics of what song?

A. Runaround Sue
B. Crazy
C. Little Boy Sad
D. Jimmy's Girl

Matt: 36
Josh: 29
James: 2

Magic #: 48

(Buzz-In!)

And Matt buzzes in! What's your answer?

[mringgenberg]

Runaround Sue?

[dad90]

DK: Runaround Sue is absolutely right!

(audience applause)

Pick up the dice, Matt.

(Matt does that)

Now, the 3 dice will total anywhere between 3 to 18.

GOOD ROLLS: 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18

You will use the value of the roll to eliminate as many of the 12 numbers on the board as you can in any form of combination. In the event you roll a number that has no moves at all, you're out of the round. With that said, all 12 numbers are up there, and all rolls are good, so go ahead and roll the dice!

(Matt roll the dice)



Hey, we got ourselves a Double!

(Doubles!)

Now, whenever someone rolls a Double, they get an Insurance Marker.

Insurance Markers:

Matt: 1
Josh: 0
James: 0

The Insurance Marker will help them recover from a Bad Roll.

[1]--[2]--[3]--[4]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[9]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]

Now, the dice total 13, so how are you going to play this out, Matt?

[mringgenberg]

12 and 1

[dad90]

OK, 1 and 12 are out, and what's hiding behind those numbers?

[1]--[2]--[3]--[4]
[Laptop]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[9]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[Kindle]

It's a Laptop Computer and an Amazon Kindle!

(audience applause)


Insurance Markers/Prizes:

Matt: 1/Laptop, Kindle
Josh: 0/None
James: 0/None


[XX]--[2]--[3]--[4]
[XX]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[9]--[10]--[11]--[XX]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[XX]

Now, in order to win those prizes, you have to win the round. With that said, let's proceed to the next question.

Which lengthy narrative poem in seven parts features an albatross, two ships, Death and Life-in-Death, impersonated by a woman, and lots of ice?

A. "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came" (Robert Browning)
B. "Ode to the West Wind" (Shelley)
C. "Ode on a Grecian Urn" (John Keats)
D. "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" (Samuel Taylor Coleridge)

Matt: 15
Josh: 21
James: 3

Magic #: 30

(Buzz-In!)

And Josh buzzes in! What's your answer?

[dad90]

(Buzzer)

Josh, time's up. Who else wants it?

(Buzz-In!)

And Matt buzzes in! What's your answer?

[mringgenberg]

Ode to the West Wind?

[dad90]

(Buzzer)

That is incorrect. James, do you know?
