Okay, that's one prize worth your entire score. Here's Jim to tell you about it. Jim: Matt, protect the environment while you clean up your lawn with this Ego 20-inch 56-volt lithium-ion electric walk behind lawnmower. It rapidly charges for up to 80 minutes of work and it's weather resistance for anything you throw in its way. A green way to mow, retail value: $650! Here are the scores after two rounds:  Bill's in first place with $1,295 though he still has time to claim that Lincoln on account. Matt's in second with $650 and Michael has yet to score. We'll come right back with Round 3 after this! |

Welcome back, this is Round 3 here on Wheel of Fortune and here is what the wheel looks like.  Top dollar is now $1,000. I want to point out there are now two Lose a Turn spaces and two Buy a Vowel wedges. Bill starts this round, he's in the lead with $1,295 and $5 on account. Matt has $650 and Michael has $0. And now, here's our third puzzle:  It's a Place. A lot of letters up there. Bill, you start this round. All the best! |

(spin) So sorry for the delay...please check the vacation thread, although I am copying & pasting an amended statement here as well...
All,
Due to illness, I won't be available today. This may impact me for more than just today, but I am hoping not. I'm only on here now doing this for all applicable threads because I had to e-mail my supervisors to let them know not to expect me at work today.
Due to work deadlines, my access from the office to do any updates as a contestant will be severely limited throughout this entire week.
I will copy & paste this thread to all the threads that apply to me as a host and contestant, and thank you for your understanding.
Best,
ill Bill
(in the event I land on a money amount, my next consonant selection will be "T")

(Get well soon, Bill. Take all the time you need.) You did better, Bill... $450A letter, please? Bill: T. Me: Sorry, no T. *buzzer*  Michael, it's— *out of time bells* —your turn but we're running out of time for this game. That sound means I have to give the wheel a final spin. *spins wheel* I'll ask you for a letter and if it's in the puzzle, you have three guesses to solve it. Vowels worth nothing, consonants worth... $650$650 apiece. A good amount which means every letter very important. Michael, I'll also point out one thing:  The used letter board now says "No vowels" because no one can call vowels for their first two turns of the Speed-Up. Michael, a consonant, please? |

Michael has 18 hours to call a consonant.

There is an R.   Three guesses to solve or you can pass. |

(copied & pasted from the vacation thread)
Barring any other unexpected problems or issues, I will be back in full force come Friday afternoon/evening for hosting and contestant duties once again.
Slowly recovering from this upper respiratory infection that I've had since last Saturday. Seems to be getting near the end finally. Will want to still rest up a bit more though to avoid relapse.
Already told my wife and son I'll be staying home this weekend from any bowling events he'll be doing to be able to further rest up and avoid relapse, which should afford me more time to devote to these boards, assuming my energy levels are restored.
Thanks for your patience and well wishes,
Signed,
The still ill but less ill than before Bill
