Lenny - 27 Matt - 52 Actual - 78 Yes or No Is Ivory found on the Periodic Table of Elements?  Matt, you rang in first. Your answer please. |

No is a correct answer Matt.
(applause)
You have 14, your opponent has 10. If you keep this next card and it's an 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen or King, Lenny will tie up this match. If you pass this card and it's an Ace, Lenny will tie up this match. If it's a 7, you'll have another 21 and win your second match. If it's a 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, you will have the option again to freeze or continue.
A lot to consider on the turn of this next card Matt. Do you want to keep it or give it away?

 Ah, a pair of fours. If only we were playing Pay Cards!  Total of 8. Rules say you must continue until you reach at least 12, so here's the next toss-up question players. We have a math question this time... Solve for x 2x - 7 = 13 (Please submit your buzz codes from 1-100 to me no later than 7:15pm EST on Tuesday, September 20th). |

10 is correct! (applause) Speaking of tens, if you think the next card is a 10 or an Ace, you may want to keep it. Your choice Lenny, keep the next card or give it away to Matt? |

And Lenny has kept...  A six.  Can the average hippo outrun the average man, yes or no? (Buzz codes due no later than 3:35pm EST Friday, September 23rd). |

 Lenny - 46 Matt - 78 Actual - 62 (Both missed by 16 however Matt submitted his code to me first). Can the average hippo outrun the average man, yes or no? Matt, your answer please. |

No

Post by billmcdee on Sept 22, 2016 9:31:00 GMT -5
Believe it or not, the answer is yes. Hippos can run 30 to 40 miles per hour.
Lenny, that means you control the next card. You have a total of 6 right now, Matt has 8.
Lenny, do you wish to keep the next card or give it away?

All,
Due to some difficulties with my machine at home, I will be off the grid later today.
I'm taking it to Geek Squad to get looked at tomorrow at 3pm, but I will be disconnecting it this afternoon when I get home so it will be ready to go tomorrow.
I'll try to update the threads where I am hosting once more when I get home, if my machine cooperates. I'll try to update things on other threads where I am a contestant either from my work computer or from my son's or my wife's computer when home.
If I am a bit slower than usual to reply to a thread, this is why.
Best,
Bill

Hi gang,
Just a quick status update.
I am on my son's laptop. My tower is with Geek Squad. They said I should get it back by Friday, September 30th. So until then, or sooner depending on when they are able to fix it, I will be on a temporary hosting hiatus, since all of my visuals and question material are on that machine. However, I will be able to continue as a contestant, once a day, possibly twice a day during the week, since I can also access this site from work.
Thank you all for your patience, loyalty and friendship throughout these many years, some dating back to July 2007 when I joined Big Jon's site.
Bill
