OK. Nice to have you here. This is how the show is going to work. When I ask a question, both of you will PM me a buzz code from 1-100. Whoever is closer to the right number will get to answer the question. Then you will choose whether to keep the card or pass it to your opponent. Try to get as close to 21 as you can without going over. If you get 21 exactly, you will win our jackpot which starts at $1,000 and goes up $500 every game until won. Whoever wins two games will play the Gambit Galaxy for a chance to win the jackpot which starts at $10,000 and goes up $5,000 every game until won. Here is the first card:
QS
It is a Queen. And here is the first question:
Was it Will Rodgers, Mark Twain, or George Bernard Shaw who once told an audience, "The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated?

Will Rodgers?

Post by gameboy2000 on Jul 13, 2019 13:10:14 GMT -5
Sorry, it was Mark Twain. J.C., you have the choice. Keep the Queen or pass it to Matt?
|
|
|
|
Post by jch20088 on Jul 13, 2019 13:42:22 GMT -5
I will keep the Queen.
|
|

Post by gameboy2000 on Jul 13, 2019 13:46:15 GMT -5
OK
MATT J.C.
QS
Next question:
Former Dodger great Don Drysdale: Was he a pitcher, catcher, or a shortstop?
PM me your buzzcodes. This is how all questions will work.

|
|
|
|
Post by jch20088 on Jul 14, 2019 16:31:54 GMT -5
I will keep the next card.

QS KH

Post by jch20088 on Jul 14, 2019 17:41:51 GMT -5
Freeze!

Post by gameboy2000 on Jul 14, 2019 18:07:38 GMT -5
OK. Matt, that means you must get 21 to win. Since you are now playing alone, you can just answer the questions without a buzzcode. Be careful. One wrong answer, and JC wins game #1. Here is the next question:
According to the Brothers Grimm, when the Prince shouted, "Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair," did she?

A ten. You are up to 17. You need a four to win. Here is your next question:

Post by mringgenberg on Jul 15, 2019 16:14:37 GMT -5
Hawaii?
|
|
|

Post by gameboy2000 on Jul 15, 2019 16:23:31 GMT -5
That is correct. Your next card is:
