Crag: The Numbers Game (Syn., Episode 8)

[Deleted]

I'll freeze the fours & reroll the three.

C

[dougmorrisontheair]

Somehow I'm not surprised. Stop on a 4 on that last screen and you complete a triple. Stop on a 5 and you complete a Crag *and* become the new champion.

Let's freeze the square pair and reroll the last screen.


(freeze sfx) (rolling sfx)

When you're ready, stop that last screen.

(ding) (audience cheers)

Third 4 for a triple and 25 points.

Michael takes a 5-point lead going into Round 3.

We'll keep this next missing digit question short -- by showing you the year Cliff's Notes were introduced. Just tell me the missing digit.

(Matt buzzes in)

Matt?

[mjyr1]

Has to be on the later end. 6?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Matt says 6. Were Cliff's Notes released in 1963? (buzz) No. Sorry. Michael, chance to steal.

(ding)

Again, this is the year Cliff's Notes were introduced. Michael, is the missing digit in the year in question 3, 4 or 5?

[Deleted]

5

[dougmorrisontheair]

Michael says Cliff's Notes were introduced in 1953. Is that right?

(ding; audience applause) (rolling sfx)

That's right. Michael, a triple or any combination of 13 makes you the new champ.

D, E, & F

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

There's a 2.

(ding) (scattered cheers)

There's a *6*.

(dings; audience cheers)

5 completes a sum of 13. We have a new champion.

WOO! Hard fought battle -- even though there were some hurdles to cross. And Matt, due to the mishap I alluded to earlier in Game 2, you'll be back on our next show. You won $4500 today; added to your prior winnings, you have a grand total of $12,000.

(audience cheers)

As we all look forward to a rematch between Matt and Michael, the spotlight right now belongs to Michael. We congratulate you, Michael, on winning $5500. You have a chance to win more at the winner's board.

The letters in "CRAG" hide different amounts of money -- ranging from $2500 to $5000. The amount you find is your immediately -- and we'll also match that amount for your head start in the Super Crag. Which letter do you think hides $5000?

[Deleted]

Since I'm in a Family Guy mood, I'll take the G for Glenn who says "Giggity giggity giggity goo!"

(audience laughter & applause)

[dougmorrisontheair]

After a certain crossover episode with "The Simpsons", I hope you end up with a lot of -- D'OH!

(more laughter and applause)

What's behind the G for Michael?

(dings; audience cheers)

Five large! Michael, your total winnings are now $10,500...

...and you could be one dice roll away from winning $1,000,000. Find out how -- when we play Super Crag right after the break.

(WGYN theme plays; audience applauds)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Welcome back to Crag: The Numbers Game. Michael, you're already $10,500 to the good. Much more can be won as you say hello to our dice girl, Candice, who's going to help us out.

(audience cheers)

Candice has the Super Crag dice cup. Inside the cup are the three Super Crag dice. They're smaller than the regular Crag dice -- but the stakes are much higher.

Now since you collected $5000 off the winner's board, we're seeding the Super Crag pot with a different $5000.

(ding)

Every time you want to play Super Crag, you're risking everything in the pot and you're rolling all three dice at once.

If you come up with a safe roll, you'll win the roll's official value in hundreds of dollars.

All those 20-point straights -- the lows, the highs, the odds, the evens -- are now worth $2000 each. Three of a kind is now worth $2500. Thirteen in any combination pays $2600 -- *however* if that combination of thirteen includes a repeat of a particular number, that's a Crag for $5000.

(audience cheers)

Anything else means you win $100 a point.

Now -- your objective to to reach $10,000 or more. With $5000 already in the pot, if you rolled a Crag right out of the gate, Michael, you'll hit $10,000 on the nose. Build the pot up to $10,000 exactly, by any means, and you win the mega payoff of $1,000,000.

(audience cheers)

(rolling sfx)

But if you end up with more than $10,000 in the pot, you win the super payoff instead of the million. The board is randomly generating amounts from $25,000 to $50,000. It will eventually stop by itself to determine tonight's super payoff.

(dings; audience cheers)

Good coin -- $31,000. 

Now for the bad news. Every roll comes with a risk. Candice is reaching into the dice cup and is about to show us...

...the gremlin. (scattered boos) Michael, we've replaced one number on that cube with a gremlin. If your roll includes that gremlin, you automatically lose everything in the pot and the Super Crag is over.

A lot to think about. A lot at stake. Knowing the risks and the rewards -- I'll let you take the $5000 right and we'll see you and Matt on the next show -- or I'll let you gamble away the money and roll the dice. What do you want to do?

(audience shouts suggestions)

(Michael, if you wish to play and roll, please respond with "Go for it!" or something to that effect -- and then a number from 1-100 inclusive. You'll see the result of that roll and the next few down the list of dice rolls until you win, lose or decide to stop after a safe roll.)

[Deleted]

I'm going for the crag!  (audience cheers)

73

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Michael shakes up bucket; pours dice down ramp)

(scattered groans and cheers)

Oh, dice total 13 -- but you have different numbers there. Not a Crag. But the roll's normally 26 points. So you have $2600 more. Want to stop and keep $7600 -- or keep on rolling?

(audience shouts suggestions)

[Deleted]

I'll keep on rolling!

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Michael shakes up bucket; pours dice down ramp)

(scattered groans and cheers)

Well close to 13 -- whether or not it's a Crag. You've just rolled 12 points for $1200.

Michael, you now have $8800. If you want the million, you've got to roll 12 points again. (scattered woos and cheers) Have the dice total 12 *without* getting triple 4 or the even straight and you win the mega bonus. (more cheers) Roll anything worth more than 12, including any triple or any straight, and you win an additional $31,000. Still beware of the gremlin.

What do you want to do?

(audience shouts suggestions)

[Deleted]

Let's get that 12 again!

(audience cheers)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience starts chanting, "Twelve! Twelve! Twelve! Twelve! Twelve!")

Crowd's on your side, Michael. They want you to win the million, so do I -- and so does Candace. Our accountants -- might be another story.

(a few laugh as the chanting continues)

When you're ready, Michael, roll 'em.

(audience still chanting, "Twelve!"...)



(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)




(..."Twelve!"...)

(Michael shakes up bucket; pours dice down ramp)

(audience groans; wonk wonk wonk wonk)

Ohhhhh -- drat! Michael, the gremlin just robbed you of $8800.

(more groans)

But -- you certainly made it exciting -- and I know you and Matt will make the rematch exciting on our next show.

Michael, you still have $10,500 in cash winnings. Matt will look to his winnings of $12,000. And we hope to see you on the next show for that rematch.

For all of us on this Crag staff, I'm Doug Morris saying -- make it a great day, keep the faith and treasure your loved ones.
