While I'm waiting on the last player to join in my Family Feud game, Erin will kick off her hosting career with the official debut of Press Your Luck. We need three players to join, and the show will begin as soon as those spots have been filled. The first round will have Add-a-One, and the second round will feature Double Your $$ and $2,000 or Lose 1 Whammy. And, of course, there will be lots of cash and prizes waiting to be won, along with the dreaded Whammy who will be waiting to take away your earnings, as always. Finally, there'll be a five-show limit for returning champions. So who's going to join? (And don't forget to check the Feud thread if you haven't already; that last spot is still waiting to be filled, so sign up now!)

Disregard the last sentence in the first post; Family Feud has already begun. Now we just need the three players to join this one.

THANK YOU!!! LET'S PLAY!!!
(PYL Intro)
RANDY WEST: Today, these three players are after high stakes, but they'll have to avoid the Whammy as they play the most exciting game of their lives! (PYL Theme) From Television City in Hollywood, it's time to Press Your Luck! And now here's your host, the star of Press Your Luck, Erin Harris!
ERIN: Thank you very much, Randy West, and welcome to the first official episode of Press Your Luck! I'm Erin Harris, and I'm so happy to kick off my hosting career with the first official episode of this classic game show. And here are my three players: lok1999, koopakid17 and nathandiniz. You remember how the game works: The objective of this game is to get the most earnings on the Big Board while avoiding the Whammy along the way. But first, you must earn some spins through a series of questions that I will ask you. Whoever buzzes in with the correct response will get three spins each, and the players who pick the correct answer from multiple-choice will earn one spin. So hands on your buzzers, and here we go with the first question:
"What major American city is the main setting for the Rocky film series?"
(buzz in if you think you know the answer, no buzzcodes are needed)

And going into the first Big Board round, lok1999 has six spins, koopakid17 six and nathandiniz eight. We have lots of cash and prizes, plus the evil Whammy awaiting us when we return. You don't want to miss it, so stay right there!
