I will need two players.
In addition to signing up here, kindly submit to me a short bio about yourself and also twenty buzz codes ranging higher than 0 but lower than 101.
I am very much looking forward to trying this revamped version out to see how it goes.
Best,
Bill

 FRANK CALIENDO (Impersonating Don Pardo): John Bergman and Frank Sartori...   FRANK: If your first three picks match...  You will win the Instant Match Jackpot...  FRANK: Currently worth $750... From Rockefeller Center in the heart of New York, direct from the Bill Cullen Theatre...NBC Daytime is proud once more to bring to you...  Three on a Match.... With your host, Bill McDee! (polite applause)  Once again, that's me! Good day to one and all, and welcome to the return of a brand new series of Three On A Match programs. I am hoping you all will enjoy our new and exciting format, different style of questioning, more strategy involved, and today, one of these fine two contestants could win over $50,000 in cash and also a new automobile! (applause) How about that! To my immediate right, or the left side of your viewing screen, is John Bergman. John is a cashier and is a fan of music from the 1960s and 1970s...I am too, and is an avid reader of the Bible. John it seems appropriate to have a reader of the Bible for our first contestant, as we keep resurrecting ourselves here... (chuckling)... Are you ready to win big here on this, our opening program of our new season? |

We congratulate you on that achievement, and we'll see if you can graduate as an undefeated champion here as well. The premise is simple, just match 3 like faces or objects within the given number of picks from the big board to win cash. A total of three full rounds will be played. Round 1 is 250 points, Round 2 is 500, and Round 3 is 750 big points. To win one round, you have to win two out of three boards. To get control of the matching board, you have to win 2 word puzzles. All word puzzles have one common missing word that will match up with the other three words or phrases among it. Let's look at puzzle #1...and best of luck to you both. The word we're looking for this time has 3 letters, as represented by three question marks...  ? ? ? PEEVE CHIA ? ? ? and ? ? ? ROCK John you signaled first. What is your answer please? (John has until 5:15am EST on Thursday, June 20th to answer). |

Right! (applause)  And since you solved two puzzles to zero for Frank, 7 picks at the matching board this time. An instant match will pay $750 this time. John, you have won the option, do you wish to play the board, or pass control to Frank? |

(some gasps in the audience) Strategy is part of this new version of the game. John felt with 7 picks he'd not make a match, and/or more likely that Frank would not be able to.  Frank, you have 7 picks to make 3 on a match. Please select your first box by calling out a column (20, 30 or 40) and one of the four colors. Remember if your first 3 picks match, you'll win $750! |

 Teddy Roosevelt there. The Instant Match Jackpot will increase to $800 for the next board. Five picks still at your disposal Frank, which box next? |

In theory a 50:50 shot at pairing up ... 40 on the Green... (flip)  And indeed you did, you have 2 Teddys and an Abe showing, and four picks remaining. Where to now? |

20 on the Yellow for a match? (flip)  (gasps in the audience) No, Mr. Eisenhower. You matched 3 Republican Presidents but that's not the match we need here (chuckling)... Three picks left Frank, but only one more pick permitted in the 20 column. Where to now? |

Last chance to find Mr. Roosevelt... 20 on the Red?  There it is! (applause) John's strategy of passing backfired that time. How much money did Frank win on that match?  $250 for you Frank, regardless of the outcome of today's match...  It takes 2 boards to win the round, Frank is up 1 board to 0 right now. The Instant Match Jackpot is now up to $800... And here is our next puzzle: Wanting a 7 letter word that matches these three: SLOT _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ GUN SEWING _ _ _ _ _ _ _  John is first to ring in again. (John has until Monday, June 24th at 10am EST to answer). |
