Here comes episode 28 of High Rollers. (unlike many other hosts here, I continue my count started at the other board for many reasons) Evan is our 14-time champion, his 15-day winnings stand at $424,475. (he lost once on the other forum but was invited back again due to a buzzcode technicality) Big Numbers lost again, jackpot climbs to $27,000. (overall record: 3-24) I need a challenger for Evan. (Also, Evan, please confirm this is your last show)

All right. Who wants to be Evan's last challenger?

Let's hope you're going to change your daily life, then. Good luck to both of you. We've let Column 1 empty last time, so here's a new prize. Rich? It's a new stove! From Napoleon, the Knightsbridge vent-free gas stove is the perfect and most efficient vent-free stove! No electricity required to light or operate, the millivolt system ensures reliable use even during power failures. There is 50% flame/heat adjustment for maximum comfort and efficiency, plus a 100% safety shut off valve with oxygen depletion sensor (ODS). We've added a remote controller and a blower. A prize worth $2,417!(applause) Column 2 is full, Column 3 has a game in it. What's the total value of the board? The potential value of the board is $56,939!Let's load the board please... Hot Column for this first game in Column 3. Roll a 12 and it's a guaranteed cash bonus, plus the possibility to play a side g ame for up to 5 trips.
First question.
By what letter do you need to replace the L of "LAND" to obtain a magic device?
(buzzcode 1-100 or pass) (fifteen rollcodes 1-36)

To make a magic WAND. That's correct. All rolls are good, so we can proceed. It's an eight. How do you want to play it?

Second question. At the 73rd place of the line of succession to the British throne, you can find Harald V, the King of another European country. Over what country does he reign?

That's correct! That's a long way to go if he ever gets to rule over Britain, though. All rolls are good, so let's hope for a prize! (cheers and applause) It's an eleven...

And you've cleared Column 2! (cheers and applause) If you win this first game, you'll win more than $22,000 worth of prizes. New question. The lowest temperature ever recorded on Earth is colder or warmer than -125°F?

Colder indeed, it's -135°F. All rolls are good, so let's take a roll and see what happens. It's a nine. What's your pleasure?

Leaving 1 and 2 in Column 3. All rolls are still good, let's move on to the next question. Akihito is the Emperor of what country?

Post by CCSCO on Dec 22, 2014 17:07:52 GMT -5
Actual code: 97 1st: Evan (49) 2nd: Matt (27) Evan again. Japan.Japan is correct. Akihito will celebrate his 81st birthday tomorrow. All rolls are still good, so let's have at it. It's an eight.

Time for our fifth question and, as you can see, the first bad rolls appear. Control is important. What is the original name of Superman?
