Hello folks.
I'm thinking of taking a break from Hangman for a while to host another show somewhat similar to it, Fill in the blank.
In this game, a puzzle is shown to the players, but only certain letters are shown (about 13 letters total). The players pick from the letter tile and contributed to a growing jackpot each time that letter appears. Solving a puzzle wins the game, 2 games wins the match and the right to play the bonus game.
I need 2 players! Anyone can sign up

(drumroll)Rich Fields: If I were to show you a puzzle: And give you the letters J, N, E, B, D, I, and O, could you solve it? If you can, then you're ready to play the most exciting game of your lives! From Television City in Hollywood, it's time to... F_LL _NTHE BLANKAnd here's your host, Immanuel Tims! cheers
Howdy ho! Welcome to a brand new show, Fill in the Blank. I'm excited to be here, ready to give away some money. And uh, oh! Our answer to our preview puzzle was:
Our current president of the U.S. That's what our player's will be doing in just a moment, unscrambling letters to fit them into puzzles. But before we get down to business, let's figure out who these people are. Mr. Fields, introduce our 2 players!
Rich: Gladly Immanuel.
First we have an order entry clerk from Pennsylvania, Bill McDee!
Finally, we have an avid bowler and a cashier at Target, give it up for Nels Snesrud!
cheers
Alrighty then! Bill, I understand you're an order entry clerk. Could you care to explain what in the world that means?

Glad to! We receive orders from a great many companies, through e-mails, faxes and by phone.
The orders are for many items that are part and parcel for things for first responders from ladder racks to brackets to cylinder holders and countless other items that we sell.
I receive the orders, mark up the necessary data that needs to be entered, then I enter them, print them out on slips and take the slips to our warehouse where that team picks out the items ordered, boxes them up and gets them ready to ship.

Ah, you get stuff ready for first responders! That's a really great job to have Bill. Good luck with that and in our game.
Nels, you're a cashier at Target. I've noticed over the past year there was an uptake in a lot of crazy people entering stores. Has that happened to you yet?

Ooh I can only imagine. Working retail can be very stressful, especially in these times. Good luck to you too and let's Fill in the blank! There are some things I must explain: First off, we're playing this match best two out of three, whoever wins 2 games wins the match and the right at some big dough in the bonus game! We start with a 2 word puzzle, in which Bill will choose from those pile of letters above the board, and ONLY those letters. Not all of the letters in the puzzle are there, and some letters are dud letters, choosing such letter means you lose control and a strike is given. I'll explain what happens with 3 strikes should we get there. Should you call a letter and it is in the puzzle, money goes into that pot. Bill you start, should you have no questions, you may go ahead and select one letter

I'll do B for Bill please.

Post by babytims on Aug 27, 2021 8:23:00 GMT -5
B for Bill that's pretty smart. Is it there? BUZZNo!! First dud of the game, strike one for the board. If three strikes happen in one round, the other player gets to solve the puzzle. Control goes over to Nels. Nels you may pick from one of the remaining letters

No N's either! BUZZCan you believe already 2 strikes and not a single letter is on the board? Bill, call a letter

Post by billmcdee on Aug 28, 2021 5:17:27 GMT -5
I'm hoping that there has got to be at least one "E" in it.

Post by babytims on Aug 28, 2021 9:40:24 GMT -5
Well folks, we finally have some info on the board, 4 E's! applause$400 is now in the pot, and Bill keeps control, you may choose another letter or solve the puzzle

Post by babytims on Aug 28, 2021 9:59:09 GMT -5
Ooh, no T's BUZZAudience: AWWWWW And that's strike 3. We go to Nels in search of some info here. You'll pick one of those numbers, and that letter will be revealed. Y'all will go back and forth until the puzzle is solved.

That's what it is! Bill that green circle means you have won a round, but it takes 2 rounds to win the match. So, let's move to another puzzle: Nels will start this one, it's a 1 worder, Nels whenever you're ready!
