Stop on a 3.

(ding)

Stop on a 6.

(ding)

And stop on a 2. Well -- 11 points or a reroll, Travis?

[tbktravis]

Re roll ABA

[dougmorrisontheair]

Travis says reroll 'em all.

(rolling sfx)

There they go.

(ding)

Stop on a 4.

(ding)

Ugh -- a 1.

(ding)

And a 6. Well -- broke even that round.

(tones sound)



After Round 9:
Bryan
tbktravis

And there's the signal confirming we're about to start the tenth and final round. Obviously, no one can reach 100 points. So higher scorer after this round wins.

Bryan, in this case, you must win this question and score more than 6 points to clinch the victory. Score exactly 6 points in this round -- and we go to a tie-breaker question.

If Bryan misses this question or Travis wins the question, game goes to Travis automatically.

Last question of the game is on agriculture.

Missing digit question: I'll show you the year the Future Farmers of America was founded -- and you tell me the missing digit.

(Travis buzzes in)

Travis for the game.

[tbktravis]

1928

[dougmorrisontheair]

Travis says 2 is the missing digit. If the FFA goes all the way back to 1928, you win the game. If not, Bryan gets a chance to steal.

Does the FFA go back to 1928?

(dings; audience applause)

Yes and that's the game.

Travis, congratulations. You've won the first numbers game and $2500. Bryan, as the runner-up, scores $500.

Takes $5000 to win the match. We'll be back with another numbers game -- after this.

...Crag: The Home Game. Just recently in San Diego, we unveiled plans for quiz books related to all sorts of comic book heroes and villains. The quiz books are compatible with this game. Look for them soon.

Back to Crag here in the studio. Travis Coulter leads our champion Bryan Law $2500 to $500.

This next game is worth $2500 to the victor and $500 to the runner up. I still have an extra $1000 burning a hole in my pocket -- for the first player to roll a Crag in this match.

(ding)

And the next numbers game is starting now with this question about sports.

Single digit question: The Olympic flag has how many interlocking rings?

Travis?

---

[NOTE TO BOTH PLAYERS: I meant to ask earlier. With your answer, please go ahead and provide three letters to stop the dice in the event your answer's correct. Anytime you're wrong, the letters will be ignored and we'll move forward from there. Thanks.]

[tbktravis]

I’ll say 5

[dougmorrisontheair]

Challenger says 5 rings for the Olympic flag. Is that right?

(ding; audience applause) (rolling sfx)

Yes indeedy -- and the dice already roll for you, Travis.

[tbktravis]

AAA

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

Stop on a 2.

(ding)

Stop on another 2.

(ding)

And stop on a 4. Well, would you like 8 points to start off this new game -- or a reroll?

[tbktravis]

Reroll. D A C

[dougmorrisontheair]

Gonna reroll 'em all. That can be done.


(rolling sfx)

And there they go.

(ding)

Stop on a 2.

(ding)

Stop on another 2.

(ding)

And stop on a 5. Well -- you traded up slightly to 9.

After Round 1:
Bryan
tbktravis

With the early score at 9-0, Round 2 question's about these United States we call home.

Single digit question: How many letters are in the first word of America's Pledge of Allegiance?
20 Bryan

(Bryan buzzes in)

Bryan?

[Bryan]

1

[dougmorrisontheair]

Does the pledge begin with just a one-letter word?

(ding; audience applause)

Yes. That word is "I". "I pledge allegiance to the flag."


(rolling sfx)

Dice roll for you, Bryan, in a game you need to win.

[Bryan]

AFC

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

Stop on a 5.

(ding)

Stop on a 2.

(ding) (scattered cheers)

And stop on a 6. Great roll. Three different numbers that add up to 13. That doesn't count as a Crag -- but I'll double that sum to 26 points if you stop here.

[Bryan]

A lead is a lead, I’ll take it!

[dougmorrisontheair]

After Round 2:
Bryan
tbktravis


Very well. Suddenly a 17-point for you, Bryan, as we play a Round 3 question on history.

Missing digit question: Colonists from Massachusetts tossed more than 300 chests of tea into Boston Harbor protesting British taxation. I'll show you the year this happened -- and you tell me the missing digit.

(ding)

(Bryan buzzes in)

Bryan?

[Bryan]

5?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Did this event happen in 1775?

(buzz)

No. Sorry. Travis, chance to steal.

(ding)

Again, this is the year colonists from Massachusetts tossed more than 300 chests of tea into Boston Harbor protesting British taxation. Travis, is the last digit in the year 1, 2, or 3?

[tbktravis]

I’ll say 3

[dougmorrisontheair]

Did the protests happen in 1773?

(ding; audience applause)

Sure did. Good job, Travis.

(rolling sfx)

Chance to regain the lead comes now, Travis.

[tbktravis]

C’mon Crag. ABC

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

Stop on a 2.

(ding)

Stop on a 4.

(ding) (scattered applause)

And stop on a 6. Obviously not a Crag -- but that's an even straight for 20 points. Travis, you'd take back the lead by 3 if you stopped the round here.

[tbktravis]

I will take the twenty

[dougmorrisontheair]

After Round 3:
Bryan
tbktravis

Taking the points. Taking the lead back.

[dougmorrisontheair]

[NOTE FROM DOUG: I just noticed a typo in the originally intended Round 4 question -- and Bryan gave an incorrect answer to a question with such a flaw. Best to throw the question out and replace. BTW, 342 chests of tea ended up in Boston Harbor.]

Round 4 question's on literature.

Missing digit question: According to the classic poem "Casey at the Bat", a certain number of people attend a baseball game. I'll show you the number of people in attendance -- and you tell me the missing digit.

(ding)

(Bryan buzzes in)

Bryan?

[Bryan]

2

[dougmorrisontheair]

Champ says 2000 see Casey take the infamous at bat during the baseball game. Is that correct?

(buzz)

No. Sorry. Travis, chance to steal.

(ding)

And the choices come courtesy of the components of the odd straight.

Agai, the classic poem "Casey at the Bat" notes a certain number of people attend a baseball game. Is the missing digit in the attendance figure, Travis, a 1, 3, or 5?
