 Hello, one and all! And yes, I'm back! Got all of my data recovered and as a celebration on that, I've come back with a new episode Press Your Luck coming up! Now, since I've been away for over 3 months, some notes are in order. 1. Leah, aka Emerlia, is our current champion with $104,021 in cash and prizes. 2. The Whammy's Bank is at $243,798. 3. I may (or may not) have noticed that Emerlia hasn't been here in a while. In any event, I need Emerlia to check-in, as well as 2 other players ready and willing to dethrone our current champion. |

I don't think she's around here anymore. I lost her Skype contact too. Maybe you should try knocking JDGA's door in Mafiascum.
Also, I'm in!

Ah, so she's there. Got you.
Since Emerlia's not here, I need a new player.

 Rich Fields: Tonight, these 3 players are after Big Bucks! But they'll have to avoid the Whammy as they play the most exciting game of their lives! From CBS Television City in Hollywood and in CyberSpace from the Net Game Central, it's time to Press Your Luck!     And now, here's your host, the star of Press Your Luck, the Dreaded Dayo Kayode!(DK appears from stage right as turntable turns around and audience cheers and applause) DK: Thank you, Rich Fields, and boy, does it feel good to be back! Yes, I'm back from the dead, and so is Press Your Luck in the 2017, and we got lots of cash and prizes just waiting to be won, and if one of these players are lucky, they could walk out of here with over $1,000,000! (more cheers and applause) Now, to those of you who wants to know what happened while I was gone, here's what happened: One of my USB Drives got corrupted, and it had a lifetime of data in there. I was so worried and depressed for the past 3 months....until a few days ago, I've found out that I've backed up ALL of my data into an extended hard drive the day BEFORE the incident, so now, everything's back to normal! (more cheers and applause) Now, I'm showing ZERO tolerance for USB Drives and saving them all on a daily basis, no matter how small it may be. But enough about me, as Bruce Forsyth used to say, as it's nice to see you, to see you... Audience: NICE! DK: Indeed, and we got 3 players who are ready to take on our Big Board for Big Bucks, starting with bowlerraymond! bowlerraymond, tell us about yourself, where you're from, what you do, and how's Summer going so far... |

It's great to have you here. In fact, audience, let's hear it for our players tonight! (cheers and applause)) Now, there's only one more important thing to introduce: The Big Board!    As the board spins, let me tell you how this game works since it's been a while. This game is played in two rounds, in which they each consist of two halves: The Question Round and the Big Board Round. First, I'll be asking a series of four questions, and if necessary, the "Big Spin Bonus" question in the first half of the round, and I hope you give me some good answers. The first player who can get close to my Magic Number between 1-100 will get to buzz in and answer the question. And then, that answer becomes one of three choices for the remaining 2 players. A correct buzz-in answer will give you 3 spins, and a correct multiple-choice will earn you 1 spin. Should we get less than 20 spins (aka A Perfect Question Round) after the 4 questions, the "Big Spin Bonus" question will be asked, which is a Multiple-Answer question, and only one of you will have a chance to buzz-in, and give me the number of correct answers. If you can successfully do that, then you'll head to our special "Spin Board" for a chance to pick up even more spins. However, if you cannot give me enough correct answers to that question, then your opponents automatically get 2 spins. The more spins you have, the more money you could make (or break) at the second half of the round: The Big Board. And the Big Board itself is now computerized and it's filled with hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and prizes. And anytime you stop the board like this.... STOP! | $2500 | $1000 | $1000 | $10,000 + One Spin | $1500 | Go Back 2 Spaces | | $500 + One Spin | P | R | E | SS | Whammy | | Across The Board | Y | O | U | R | $1000 + One Spin | | $5000 or Lose 1 Whammy | L | U | C | K | Whammy | | Double Your $$ |  | $3000 | Whammy | $4000 or Lose 1 Whammy | Double Your $$ + One Spin |
Ouch! I stopped at a Whammy, which is what you DON'T want to do.  Land on him, and he will take away all of the cash and prizes that you have earned up to that point, and if you get 4 of those, you WILL be sorry, because you'll be knocked out of the game. Now, the player at the end of the game that's earned the most money is our champion, and will also earn the right to play the Big Bonus Board for hundreds of thousands of dollars in cold hard cash, AND the right to come back and do it all over again. |

OK, players. Here we go with the first Question Round and this is the first question. Good luck to all 3 of you.
Question #1: In the seventies, which group had the most number one hit singles in the UK?
Now PM me your buzzcodes 1-100. The player who's closest to the Magic Number will get to answer.

And I say that you are all wrong, I'm sorry to say. The correct answer is actually ABBA, believe it or not. THE ROLLING STONES
ABBA
THE BEATLESAnd here's why; In terms of number-one singles, ABBA were the most successful group of the decade having seven singles reach the top spot for 26 weeks. The Rolling Stones had lots of Number One hit singles, but it happened in the 60s.  No one gets any spins on that one, but we got more questions coming up. Here's the next one. Question #2: Which spirit is typically used to make a Cuba Libre?PM me your buzzcodes now. |
