Before we can roll out this new show, there has to be a test that will serve as the pilot. We need two players for the new game, and in case you missed the premise behind it, you may refer to this preview page. So who's going to try out Punch Card? |

And we're all set for this test pilot of Punch Card. Here we go, everybody! (Punch Card Theme)GEORGE GRAY: Today, these two contestants are going after the dough, and a chance to go for even more prizes, such as a trip and even a car! Find out who it is, as we play the all-new Punch Card! And now, here's your host, Erin Harris!ERIN HARRIS: Thank you, George Gray, and welcome to Punch Card! Now before we begin, I have to tell you that this is an all-new game that will hopefully turn into a series, and we based it off the popular punchboard games where you can win a wide assortment of cash and prizes. And here with me are the two contestants who will be vying for a spot in the Bonus Round; please give a warm welcome to bryan and mringgenberg! Hello, guys! Let me explain the rules to this game as quickly as I can: You will each select a set number of holes in each round, and whoever wins more cash after three rounds will then go to the Bonus Round for the chance to win some great prizes! So now that we got this out of the way, are you ready to play our new game? Let's do it!(round intro cue)Now in the first round, we have nine holes to punch out. Each of you will punch out three holes, and we'll see how much cash you get. The amounts range from $10 to $90, and bryan, since you signed up first, you get the honor to start off this round.(Please select three numbers from 1 to 9.) |

First selection is Hole 17, and we find that it has...$600...$600, and we start you off with $5,115.ding! Nice palindromic number there! Now on to Hole 5, where we find...$200...$200, which takes you up to $5,315.ding! And in Hole 10, we get...$3200...$3200, giving you a total of $8,515.ding! Then we go to Hole 32, which has...$2400...$2400, and you now have $10,915.ding! Now let's go to Hole 13, and what does it have?$2700...$2700, and with one more hole to go, you now have $13,615.ding! This will determine the total you will go home with. And in Hole 18, we find that you will add to your total...$900...$900, and your grand total is $14,515.ding! Now bryan, you have $4,390, so if you get more than $10,125, you will be the winner. Good luck to you.

I think you have a chance there. Let's see what's in Hole 34.$100Hmm, only $100, and you're at $7,190.ding! With only three more holes to go, you're behind by $7,325. Fingers crossed, everybody!

If you get $4,325 or more, you will be the winner. Your last choice is Hole 19, and you get...$1600...only $1600, and you get a grand total of $11,790.ding! And with $14,515, mringgenberg is the winner!(multiple dings and win cue)Congratulations, mringgenberg, you will be going on to the Bonus Round in a moment, but I want to thank bryan for being here.

ERIN: We're back with mringgenberg, who won the main game with $14,515, and is now ready to go after even more cash and prizes! Now in the Bonus Round, you will punch out seven holes, and you can decide whether to go on or quit after each punch. You can win any amount of cash from $250 all the way up to $100,000, in addition to seven prizes like a trip and a car! But beware of two bad things, like 1/2 Cash, where you will lose half of your money, and Lose It All, which means just that; you lose everything. Now let's move on to the Bonus Round!(Bonus Round intro cue)Whenever you're ready, you may punch out seven different holes. Good luck to you!(Please select seven numbers from 1 to 49.)
