I am bringing back Three on a Match, keeping true to the classic element of the show a bit more, using True/False questions and having things such as Double Pot, Two Free Boxes, and Three Free Boxes.
Two For The Money is a new bonus.
When a player wins control of the category board, by buzz codes from 01 - 99 (inclusive), they will select a category. I will ask all 4 True/False questions in the same post. The player will have 48 hours to provide their answers.
To win the money in the pot, the player must correctly answer 3 out of 4 of these questions correctly. The Two For The Money bonus means the player has to answer only 2 out of 4 correctly to win the pot.
The first three people to sign up here will get to participate. Episodes may straddle, rather than being self-contained.

Yes to all. Matt I know you'll be away from Aug 28th through Sept 2nd. This will give me more time to do more question research and more artwork for the game.
We'll kick the start of the show off on or around September 2nd.
Thanks all for your interest and enthusiasm. These matches are safe to play with!
Best,
Bill

Welcome back Matt.
Gents, I'm still a bit woozy still from yesterday's oral surgery procedure. I'm hoping to get this episode started soon however. For now, I'm heading back to the sofa for some more shuteye.
Best,
Bill

Matt has just checked back in. If the other two players who signed up would kindly do the same, once that is done, we can proceed.
Thank you,
Bill

Matt Ringgenberg just posted in the vacation thread of the passing of his 88 year old grandmother. I again express my deepest condolences to he and his family during this difficult time of transition. I reached out to him in that thread and asked him if he needs me to temporarily postpone any games of mine in which he is involved. Most understandable if the answer is yes.

 (Frank Caliendo as Don Pardo): Kevin Kolsen, Matt Ringgenberg, and James Greek...  If any one of you...  ...makes an instant match...  ...on your first three picks, it could be worth as much as...  Ten-thousand dollars in cash! Yes, it's the return of Three on a Match. And now, almost live, from the Bill Cullen Theatre in Rockefeller Center in New York, here is Bill McDee! (applause)  Hey that's me! Hello once again my friends, we're back in our familiar surroundings. Hope you are staying safe during this tropical storm laced Labor Day weekend. It's the return of "Three on a Match", with more classic elements involved this time, and still very big payoffs can be won, and here are the three folks who are going to try to do just that. Kevin Kolsen is in the first position, Kevin's from here, New York, and you are a tax accountant? What keeps you busy during the off-season, or is there any such thing? |

Preferably not at the same time.
Good luck.
Next we have Matt Ringgenberg from the great state of Iowa, a supermarket clerk and also a participant in Special Olympics.
When did you last participate in an Olympics Matt?

Awesome. Are they held annually or is the schedule a bit more flexible than that?

So on an annual basis every March, good to know. Best of luck here today, hopefully you can take the gold here too.
And we also have with us James Greek from lower Alabama, a fan of 70s and 80s music. I have to assume, which I know is dangerous, that your love of that music includes the group Alabama as well as the song "Sweet Home Alabama", yes?

James, perhaps a musical category will surface during our game. Best of luck to you, and to all three players. Have a look at the big board gentlemen...  It is divided into three columns, $20, $30 and $40. Each column contains four colorful boxes. In the $20 there will appear 4 pictures. Those same 4 pictures will appear somewhere in the $30 column and the $40 column as well. One box however is always a "NO MATCH" box, so beware of that. Object of the game quite simply is to match 3 of the same picture during a turn at the big board. Doing so will win you some cash. The first player to make three matches wins the game and at least an additional $5,000 in cash. You must however earn your trips to the big board and you do that by answering questions in various categories...  Our first three categories are VINTAGE T.V, U.S. SENATE, and one that's near and dear to my heart, BILLS & WILLIAMS. The categories will remain on the board until selected. Hidden under one category card each time will be a bonus of some sort. If and when they are revealed I will explain how they work. Right now contestants, I need all three of you to submit to me a numeric code ranging from 1 to 99 inclusive. Once I receive a code from all three of you, I will then reveal the actual code number. The one of you three who is closest to it, high or low, will get first crack at the category board to try to earn some dollars to take to the matching board. Players, please submit to me via private message your codes as soon as you can. |

Due to Matt's circumstances, I will allow as much time as he needs before he submits his code to me via private message.
Thinking of you and yours Matt.
Bill

 Okay the actual code is 15, and all 3 players have submitted their codes. Let's see who is closest...  Kevin, it's you... Which category is to your liking Kevin? |

I'd be a sucker if I didn't pick Bills and Williams.

You are most kind.
Kevin I also was remiss in one way, I also need you to select one letter in M A T C H.
Money amounts from 70 up to 110 are hidden up there, and that will determine the value of this contract.
After you select a letter, we'll reveal the dollar amount and also if there is a bonus card under BILLS & WILLIAMS.

 Just $70 this time, and with Bills & Williams we find...  (ding) Two Free Boxes Kevin, if you answer 3 out of 4 of these questions correctly, $70 to spend. Category again is Bills & Williams and all questions are True/False. Question 1... Two U.S. Presidents named William died while in office. |

Correct, one down, two to go. You can make one mistake and still be alright.
William Conrad portrayed Walter Findley, the henpecked husband of Maude on the CBS sitcom of the same name.
