Let's hope it's not another 2! Is it higher?
(2 ♥)
buzz!
Oh no, it's another 2! So mringgenberg, you get a break once again. We'll start from the 10, and you must play it right now. Is the next card higher or lower?

Lower

Lower than a 10?
(9 ♣)
ding!
Yes, it's a 9! And now you're two cards away from taking the first round. What's your next choice: Continue or freeze?

Freeze

And we freeze at the 9. The fourth question of the round will go to koopakid17, and this is what we asked 100 people:
"Peyton Manning has retired after 18 seasons of playing in the NFL. Is he the greatest quarterback of all time?"
How many of those people said yes?

Post by koopakid17 on Mar 15, 2016 19:00:29 GMT -5
I don't think too many of them will. There are lots of quarterbacks that are more famous than him. I'll say 20.

Post by mringgenberg on Mar 15, 2016 19:44:53 GMT -5
It's a little higher.
|
|
|

Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 16, 2016 9:51:34 GMT -5
So koopakid17 says 20...
ding!
...and mringgenberg thinks it's higher.
ding!
And the actual number of people who said that Peyton Manning is the NFL's greatest QB is...
ding-ding-ding!
...38, so it is higher, and mringgenberg will start from the 9. Would you like to play it now, or change it?
|

Post by mringgenberg on Mar 16, 2016 16:42:27 GMT -5
Change It!
|
|
|

Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 17, 2016 9:17:15 GMT -5
Alright, what's the new card, please?
(K ♥)
It's a King! Is the next card higher or lower?
|
|
|
|
Post by mringgenberg on Mar 17, 2016 11:23:01 GMT -5
Lower!
|
|
|
|
Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 17, 2016 11:47:39 GMT -5
Is it lower than a King?
(9 ⋄)
ding!
Yes, it's a 9, and now you're one card away from taking the first round. What would you like to do?
|
|
|
|
Post by mringgenberg on Mar 17, 2016 11:50:37 GMT -5
Freeze

Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 17, 2016 12:14:43 GMT -5
And once again, we freeze at the 9. Which brings us to our next question, which will go to you, mringgenberg, and we asked 100 people the following question:
"After 15 years on the air, American Idol will end its run this season. Will you be glad or sad to see it go?"
How many of those 100 people said they'll be sad to see the show end?

Post by mringgenberg on Mar 17, 2016 12:43:32 GMT -5
64

Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 17, 2016 14:15:17 GMT -5
mringgenberg says 64...
ding!
...and koopakid17, is the actual number higher or lower?
|
|
|
|
Post by koopakid17 on Mar 17, 2016 18:36:16 GMT -5
I say it's about freaking time. I always forget that show's existence until its season begins. I'm sure other people feel the same way so I'll say higher.
|

|

Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 18, 2016 10:38:11 GMT -5
And koopakid17 says that it's higher.
ding!
The actual number of people who said that they'll be sad to see it end is...
ding-ding-ding!
...70, so it is higher! Now we're going to show you a new base card, which is...
(A ⋄)
...an Ace! I think I know what you want to do, but I still have to ask: Would you like to play or change it?
|
|
|
|
Post by koopakid17 on Mar 18, 2016 11:27:19 GMT -5
Lower!
|
|

Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 18, 2016 11:51:26 GMT -5
Anything but an Ace, and we'll be fine. Flip it, Tiffany!
(J ⋄)
ding!
A Jack! Now are you going on, or freezing?
|
|
|
|
Post by koopakid17 on Mar 18, 2016 16:36:13 GMT -5
I'll risk it. Lower!
|
|
|

Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 19, 2016 11:22:33 GMT -5
Lower than a Jack?
(8 ♣)
ding!
Right again! Two more cards away from taking the first round. SO what would you like to do?
|
|
|
|
Post by koopakid17 on Mar 19, 2016 12:37:03 GMT -5
Gotta freeze!
|
|
|
|
Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 19, 2016 12:45:23 GMT -5
And we'll freeze at the 8. Now it's time to move on to the next question in this marathon first round. This time, koopakid17 gets to answer it. We asked 100 people the following:
"Between vinyl, compact discs and digital downloading, which method is your preferred choice of purchasing music?"
How many people chose digital downloading as their preferred choice?
|
|
|
|
Post by koopakid17 on Mar 19, 2016 13:25:56 GMT -5
I think people prefer digital downloading because it's the easiest and you don't have to go to the store to do it. I'll say 60 of them.
|
|
|
|
Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 19, 2016 14:10:05 GMT -5
So it's 60 for koopakid17.
ding!
mringgenberg, is the actual number higher or lower than 60?
|
|
|
|
Post by mringgenberg on Mar 19, 2016 16:40:34 GMT -5
Higher
|
|
|
|
Post by Bill Skinner on Mar 20, 2016 12:12:59 GMT -5
And mringgenberg says it's higher.
ding!
And the actual number of people who prefer downloads is...
ding-ding-ding!
...70, so it is higher, and mringgenberg can win with the final card. Right now, though, you have the option of changing the 9 or playing it as it is. What would you like to do?

Post by mringgenberg on Mar 20, 2016 12:50:09 GMT -5
Change It

The 9 is now...
(4 ♠)
...a 4! Is the next card higher or lower?
