I'm starting a new game on an old gameshow: Las Vegas Gambit, It's exactly the same as Gambit but with high stakes and big prizes.
Who wants to play? Need two players and give me a name in case I forget.
Rules of Gambit are simple get 21 before you bust and win two games to move on to the Gambit Galaxy for $25,000
Main rounds: Two players, one deck of cards, The first card will be shown and I'll ask a question, all my questions are letter based like on Blockbusters, think very carefully before you buzz in (no buzz code, reply) if you buzz in and get it right, you can keep the card or give to the other player, if you get it wrong, the other player will choose to keep or give. Then in the next question, the card WILL NOT be shown until you get the question right or wrong, then you choose to keep the card that is face down or give to the other, then onwards no choice will be made, if you reach 12 or more, you can freeze, then if the other player gets a question wrong or exceeds 21 you will win the round. Getting 21 means you get a cash bonus, on this version, $1,000 will be starting with then goes up $500 each time 21 is not been made.
Gambit Galaxy: if you win two games, not only you get $100 for each game you win, you'll have the right to play for $25,000 in this end game. There will be nine numbers on the board and your goal is to knock out all of the numbers to win, to do so, you must roll two dice for a number and pick the numbers you want to get rid, like High Rollers. If you roll doubles, you get a marker, so if you get a bad roll, it won't count because your marker stops you from losing.
You can join but I need two players please.

Um, sircatchphrase, with you working on UK time, I would think buzzcodes and answers would be best.

Here's what I do with buzzcodes. I use It will generate a random number from 1 to 100. Usually, the procedure here is to have each player message you a buzzcode. The one who comes closer is the one who is considered the first to signal. For example, the actual buzzcode is 40. Player A messages you and guesses 26. Player B messages you and guesses 48. Since Player B only missed by 8, Player B would get to answer. This practice is something we all find to be quite helpful in making games a bit more fair and competitive on here. Some people have more access than others due to personal circumstances, so buzzcodes serve as a very fair equalizer. Best wishes with Las Vegas Gambit, Bill |

And you can use random.org to generate buzzcodes. That's what a lot of us use.

Okay, I'll use the random number generator to make this fair. This is my first time using the buzz code.

One last thing. Are the two players ready for the very first pilot of the very first gameshow, I've ever hosted.
We are using buzz codes, so make a two digit number before I ask each question.

Um.... you ask the question first, then they PM you a buzzcode (or a buzzcode and an answer).

We are going to do the Gambit Galaxy to see if Spyro will be our starting Champion for $25,000!  This is how the Galaxy works, you roll two dice to get a number and knock some numbers off, if you get rid of all the numbers you will win $25,000. Are you ready? |
