Vegas Dice Game - Rolling to Episode 4 Next Time! Good-Bye!

[dad90]

Indeed, and Doug, this is it. In a matter of moments, you'll be playing our Bonus Round where you could possibly win the biggest cash prize ever offered to date in game show and Net Game Central history....THREE BILLION DOLLARS!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

So tell me, Doug. Should luck be on your side, what would you do with $3 Billion?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Hmm -- probably buy a nice secluded island in the Pacific and have a vacation home there.

[dad90]

That's certainly a good idea or two, and I know that there's certainly plenty more fun ideas, like getting your house completely renovated from the ground up, a nice car, or even buying your own land, just to name a few. We can make all of that happen and more, because here at the Vegas Dice Game, we can make people's dreams come true, but of course, it's going to take luck, and you'll certainly need it here in this Bonus Round.

But first, let's recap on what has happened on this show so far...Doug has managed to eliminate his opponents in the Main Game, and defeated Nels, our standing champion in my Dice Duel in the Championship Round, and now, you have proven yourself worthy and have earned the right to play our Bonus Round.

Are you ready, Doug?

[dougmorrisontheair]

I'm ready.

[dad90]

Then, let's play our Super Jackpot Grand Final Bonus Round called Roll to 100!



(Audience Cheers and Applause)



(The logo opens up to reveal the board)



And here is our board. You may notice that this is a board that we all have played in our childhood: Snakes and Ladders. However, it's not as easy as it looks. Now, first and foremost of all, let's bring out our Big Star of the Show: The Super Jackpot Star!



(Audience Cheers and Applause)

(The Super Jackpot Star sparkles and flies over the crowd before heading to the board and placing itself on #100)



And now the Star is in place. Doug, I can now tell you now that at this point, the prizes you've won so far are safe, but you are still going to be risking half of your money, or $76,887.50. I'll tell you more about that when we get to that particular scenario.

But for now, we're going to play our Grand Final game. The first order of business is to actually look at how much money you've accumulated from my Dice Duel. You've won $2,700 from my Dice Duel, so we're going to start you off with a new bank of...

BANK: $2,700

(Cha-Ching!)

$2,700.

Also, I'm going to give you a single die, and you'll get one free roll for winning the Duel.

So, go ahead and give me a dice-code 1-6 and I'll tell you what happens from there.

(Doug Rolls)



DK: You've rolled a 3, and guess what?



Not only we're going to pay you $50 for each space you've moved...

BANK: $2,850

...but by landing on a ladder, you're moving up already to #20!



(Audience Applause)

And I'm glad that you've landed on #20, and I'll tell you more about that in a minute. First of all, that's a very nice headstart for you, however, you're now going to have to earn your way by answering questions, and here's Richard to tell you how. Now pay close attention, because we've changed some of the rules from the last episode.

Richard: Thank you, Dayo. Now Doug, listen up.











In front of you now are the 5 Dice that you've earned from the Dice Puzzle, but you may notice that you haven't seen a 6 on each die. That's because all 6's are now replaced by...



...the dreaded Lightning.

(Scattered Boos and Hisses)

You don't want to get hit by that too many times or else your game will end quickly, and here's how...

LIGHTNING HITS:
1-3 = Warning
4 = Dead Die
5 = Lose 1/4 of your money
6-9 = Lose 1/2 of your money
10 = Lose All of your money + GAME OVER

The first 3 hits will warn you, but if you get hit the 4th time, and you'll lose 1 die, leaving up to 4 dice.

The 5th violation will lose a quarter of your bank, and the 6th through the 9th hits will result in losing half of your bank every time.

Get hit the 10th time, and you lose everything and the game is over.

Oh, and if you get a Game Over, remember half the money that Dayo told you earlier? You will lose half of what you've won: $76,887.50 lost.

And if that wasn't bad enough, the dreaded Lightning has an extra punishment in store for you; the Prime Punishment, and I'll tell you more about that in a bit.

Now, in order for you to move, you actually have to answer some questions, but this time, we have a Category Board, filled with 6 categories, and tonight's categories are...

GEOGRAPHY

HISTORY

SCIENCE AND NATURE

ART & LITERATURE

SPORTS & LEISURE

GRAB BAG

In a moment, you'll pick a category, and Dayo will ask you a question, but this time, each question has 3 multiple-choice answers, but how many rolls you'll play for will depend on how easy or hard the question will be. One thing is for certain: No matter the difficulty, each of the 3 choices will only have 1 correct answer.

You'll play for either 1, 2, or 3 Rolls of the dice, and they'll be at Easy, Medium, and Hard difficulty, respectively.

And those various number of rolls will help you try to complete your main task for this game: Land exactly or pass space #100, the Super Jackpot Star Space.



For the payoffs, for every space that you move on the board, you will earn the following...

EASY = $50
MEDIUM = $100
HARD = $200

Once you get past space #50, the amounts will increase.

And after every safe roll, you will get a chance to walk away with the money and quit.

For every space you land on that is divisible by 10, you'll win a prize. If you land on Space #50, and you'll get a brand-new car, but in order for you to win it, you need to land on or get past the Super Jackpot Star Space, depending on how expensive the car will be.

If you pass #100 before all of your rolls are used, and you'll win an extra $25,000, plus however many spaces you pass based on the last difficulty question you've answered correctly. The payoffs are the following...

EASY = $1,000 per space passed
MEDIUM = $2,500 per space passed
HARD = $5,000 per space passed

If you land on Space #98, there's a possibility that the game will end because it'll be (almost) impossible to land on #100 at that point, and should that be the case, you'll win an extra $10,000, plus a Showcase full of fantastic prizes, and it may include a brand-new car.

However, if you land EXACTLY on Space #100, tonight, on the Graduation Special, you'll get to spin our special Bonus Wheel for a chance to find the TRIPLE, which will allow you to spin again; then land on the MEGA MILLIONS WHEEL, and then spin that Wheel, and hopefully, land on the $1 BILLION space, and get the top prize of $3 BILLION!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

There are a few catches, though...

These dice here are NOT friendly!

If at least two dice adjacent to each other have the same number, those dice will cancel each other out.

If you get struck by Lightning, the Prime Punishment will come into effect where if the total of the dice equals a prime number after all the cancellations have been made, you must stay right where you are.

But before we move on any further, you've landed on #20, which means this prize is already heading into your bank...



George: It's a stylish Baker's Rack!

(Audience Applause)

Foundry Select presents this Jaquan Iron baker's rack, which comes with four doors with shatterproof glass and four shelves to store your fine china and dinnerware on. It's a prize valued at $1,200!

BANK: $2,850
PRIZES: $1,200

(Ding; Audience Applause)

Richard: With all that said Doug, may your knowledge and luck triumph in this game, and very best of luck to you, and to you folks playing at home.

DK: Thank you very much, Richard and George! Doug, I hope you understood all of that. Once we play the game, it's not going to be that hard in terms of what Richard has explained to you.

Now, first things first. Let's get started by picking one of the 6 categories, and then how many rolls you want to play for.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Let's go for Sports and Leisure for two rolls, please.

[dad90]

Very well, then. You're trying Sports & Leisure for 2 rolls. Richard, let's see the question, if you please.

During the first ever modern Olympics, what were the first placers awarded with?

A. Gold
B. Silver
C. Bronze

Only one of these is the correct answer, and Richard will let you know if you're right or wrong.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Gold

[dad90]

DK: Richard, Doug says that it's Gold. Is he right or wrong?



(Trivia Trap Wrong SFX) (Audience Groans)

He's wrong...the correct answer was...

During the first ever modern Olympics, what were the first placers awarded with?

A. Gold
B. Silver
C. Bronze

Silver, believe it or not. Richard, tell us why.

Richard: Unfortunately, Doug, you went right into that trap. The Olympic tradition of awarding gold, silver and bronze medals didn’t begin until the 1904 games in St. Louis, Missouri, the first U.S. city to ever host the Olympic Games. The winners at the 1896 games in Athens, Greece were instead presented with silver medals, certificates and olive branches, while the runners-up received bronze medals and laurel branches. The unlucky third place finishers, meanwhile, got nothing.

DK: So by getting that question wrong, you're staying right where you are.

GEOGRAPHY

HISTORY

SCIENCE AND NATURE

ART & LITERATURE

GRAB BAG

Now you may notice that on our Category Board, Sports & Leisure is out of play for the rest of the game. What that means is each category has one question, and if you come up short of the Super Jackpot Star Space by the time you've finished with the last category, the Big Bonus will be out of play, but all will not be lost.

Now that you know what happens when you get a question right and wrong, you'll now pick the next category and how many rolls you'll be playing for.

[dougmorrisontheair]

History for 1 roll, please.

[dad90]

Very well, then. History for only 1 roll. Let's see the question, please.

How long did the Hundred Years' War last?

A. 86 years
B. 100 years
C. 116 years

Choose an answer now.

[dougmorrisontheair]

116.

[dad90]

DK: You have chosen C. 116 years. Richard, is he right or wrong?



(Ding; Audience Applause)

How long did the Hundred Years' War last?

A. 86 years
B. 100 years
C. 116 years

Correct on that one, Doug.

Richard: The Hundred Years' War, a conflict between England and France, actually lasted 116 years. It began in 1337 and ended in 1453, although there were long periods of truce or low-level fighting during that time.

DK: Doug, you only got 1 roll on this one, and as long as you don't get struck by Lightning, I'll give you the chance to take what you've banked and quit, but if you get struck even once, you'll be forced to continue.

So with that being said, give me a dice-code between 1 to 7776, and let's get going.

[dougmorrisontheair]

2430

[dad90]

(Doug Rolls)

And your roll is:



a 16, and no Lightning!

(Audience Applause)

Let's move 16 spaces...



and at $50 per space, that's $800 going into your bank.

BANK: $3,650
PRIZES: $1,200

Now, you have the option of taking $4,850 in cash and prizes and quit right now, or keep playing.

If you want to keep playing, choose a category and how many rolls you're playing for.

(Audience Shouting Suggestions)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Let's go Grab Bag for 2, please.

[dad90]

Very well, then you have decided to keep playing.

(Audience Applause)

That being said, you're going for Grab Bag for 2 Rolls. Let's see the question, if you please.

What was the name of the Harrods department store heir who died with Princess Diana in 1997?

A. James Hewitt
B. Dodi Fayed
C. Henri Paul

Choose an answer now.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Dodi Fayed

[dad90]

DK: Richard, Doug says that it's B. Dodi Fayad. Is he right or wrong?



(Ding; Audience Applause)

What was the name of the Harrods department store heir who died with Princess Diana in 1997?

A. James Hewitt
B. Dodi Fayed
C. Henri Paul

Well done. That is the correct answer.

Richard: Emad El-din Mohamed Abdel Moneim Fayed, known as Dodi, was a passenger in the car in which Princess Diana died. Neither he, nor Diana, were wearing seatbelts. Henri Paul was the driver of the vehicle. It was found that he was under the influence of alcohol and he also perished in the crash. James Hewitt was a former lover of the Princess.

DK: OK Doug. You got 2 rolls of the dice. Give me a dice-code between 1 to 7776 and we'll proceed from there.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Come onnnnn -- good numbers!

4200

[dad90]

(Doug Rolls)

And your first roll is:



a 15, and no Lightning!

(Audience Applause)

But as you move 15 spaces...



DOUBLE BAD NEWS! Not only you just missed the car...



...but by landing on the Snake's head, and one of the worst ones at that, you've gone down from #51 to #6...

(Audience Groans)

However, there's a little bit of good news...It also had a ladder, albeit a small one...



Unfortunately, that only takes you up to #14, but you did move 15 spaces, and at $100 per space, that's $1,500.

BANK: $5,150
PRIZES: $1,200

Now you know what happens when wake up a sleeping snake, and they are NOT your friends as they can do massive damage to your progress.

Good news, however, is that you got a second roll. Give me a dice code between 1 to 7776 and see if you get back on track.

[dougmorrisontheair]

1337

[dad90]

(Doug Rolls)

And your second roll is:



...your first strike!

(Audience Groans)

So now as you've been struck by Lightning, the Prime Punishment is now in effect, and the total number for this roll is a 7, which IS a prime number, so you must stay right where you are.



(More Groans)

BANK: $5,150
PRIZES: $1,200
STRIKES: 1

So now, you have reached the halfway point, so let's take a look at where you're at, Doug. You have $5,150 in cash, and the Baker's Rack with a value of $1,200, and you've had the unfortunate pleasure of meeting a snake and lightning on these 2 rolls, and you can now see how damaging these 2 enemies can do to you. You are also 86 spaces away from the Super Jackpot Star Space, which means that you're going to have to make some big moves if you want to get there before the Category Board is completely used up.

And since you've got struck by Lightning, you're forced to continue.

GEOGRAPHY

SCIENCE AND NATURE

ART & LITERATURE

3 categories remain on the Category Board. Choose one and how many rolls you're playing for.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Geography for 1.

[dad90]

Geography for 1 Roll this time. Here comes the question.

Which ocean lies on the east coast of the United States?

A. Atlantic
B. Pacific
C. Indian

Choose an answer now.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Atlantic

[dad90]

DK: You have chosen Atlantic as your answer. Richard, is he right or wrong?



(Ding; Audience Applause)

Which ocean lies on the east coast of the United States?

A. Atlantic
B. Pacific
C. Indian

Indeed it is.

Richard: The Atlantic Ocean is the second-largest of the world's oceans, with an area of about 106,460,000 square kilometers. It covers approximately 20 percent of Earth's surface and about 29 percent of its water surface area. It separates the "Old World" from the "New World".

DK: Thanks, Richard. Doug, you only got 1 roll here, so make this one count. Give me a dice code from 1 to 7776 when ready.
