Probably not a bad idea. Because... ...Marc, you now have 50 points. A Crag will give you the automatic win in this first game of the match. Leaf, with 12, still time to catch up. Next question's on music. Missing digit question: I'll show you the year the first Farm Aid concert was held -- and you tell me the missing digit.(ding)86 marc412 85 LeafA1996 36 randomizer.org(Leaf buzzes in)Leaf?

Marc says 5 is the missing digit in the year. Is that right? (ding; audience applause)It is. That 1985 concert was held in Champaign, Illinois -- making it a Champaign jam. (scattered groans) (rolling sfx)Innnnn any event, Marc, another try at the dice. (ding)Stop on a 2. (ding)Stop on another 2. (ding)And stop on a 4. Well -- care for 8 more points or another shot?

OK, freeze the 4 first, please. (freeze sfx)Marc, if you turn one 2 into a 5 and the other 2 into another 4, that's a Crag and that's the game. So, let's reroll the other dice. (rolling sfx)And stop 'em when you're ready. (ding) (scattered groans) Well -- a 1. (ding)And a 5. Well, 10 more points. Marc with a commanding 60 to 12 lead over Leaf. Anything can still happen. We have four rounds to go in this opening game of the match. (ding)Three question marks on the board this time. It's an ordinal number question in Round 7 -- and it's on the movies. Ordinal number question: Was "Moonraker" the first, second, third, fourth, fifth or sixth James Bond movie to star Roger Moore? 48 marc412 10 LeafA1996 15 randomizer.org(Leaf buzzes in)Leaf?

Okay, I'll take that to mean you think "Moonraker" was Roger's fourth movie. Is that right? (ding; audience applause)Yes! Good guess. "Moonraker" was released in 1979 -- and that movie was out of this world. (scattered laughter and groans) (rolling sfx)Leaf, with time running out in this game, you *really* could use some points. A Crag would be a tremendous help.

(buzz buzz)No decision in time. Round ends with 25 points in Leaf's podium. Marc still leads. We're going to get a winner soon -- as we play this Round 8 question that -- also -- is out of this world.

Do 2 moons orbit Mars? (ding; audience applause)Exactly. Oddly enough, the Galactic Protectorate arrested Marvin the Martian for mooning on Mars. (scattered laughter from the crowd) Champ, a Crag gives you the first game. Let's roll those dice. (rolling sfx)And stop 'em when you're ready. (ding)Stopping on a 3. (ding)Got a 1. (ding)And got another 1. Well -- 5 points or a reroll, Marc?

Rerolling everything. Very well. Nothing freezes. (rolling sfx)And there they go. (ding)There's a 6. (ding)There's a 2. (ding)And there's another 2 for 10 points. Doubled up from 5 that round. It's 70 to 37 in Marc's favor. Next to last question for this game comes from the animal kingdom -- or the farm, depending on your view. Missing digit question: I'll show you the number of teeth the typical cow has -- and you tell me the missing digit.(ding)55 marc412 66 LeafA1996 93 randomizer.org(Leaf buzzes in)Leaf?

All right, he's just rerolling the 4. Leaf, if you turn that 4 into a 5, that's a 25-point triple. Turn the 4 into a 3 -- and that's a Crag for 50 big points. Let's freeze the Texas sunflowers. (freeze sfx) (rolling sfx)First screen rerolls. Stop it when you're ready. (dings; audience cheers)It's a 3 with double 5 for CRAG! All right. (Doug walks over to Leaf's podium) Leaf, your Crag is the first Crag in the match. You know what this means. Cup those hands together, please, as I place onto said hands... (crowd and Doug count money in unison) Doug: 100... Crowd: One... (ding)Doug: 200... Crowd: Two... (ding)Doug: 300... Crowd: Three... (ding)Doug: 400... Crowd: Four... (ding)Doug: 500... Crowd: Five... (ding)Doug: 600... Crowd: Six... (ding)Doug: 700... Crowd: Seven... (ding)Doug: 800... Crowd: Eight... (ding)Doug: 900... Crowd: Nine... (ding)Doug: $1000! (dings; audience cheers)(Doug returns to his podium) (tones sound)And there's the signal indicating we've reached the tenth and final round of this game. Leaf, you picked a great time to roll that Crag -- because you have the lead for the first time in the game. So -- here's what's about to happen. Marc, you must win this question. You must then roll 6-6-5, not necessarily in that order, to force a tie-breaker question -- or roll a straight or better to win. Anything short of winning the question and 6-6-5 on the dice will mean Leaf wins the first game in this match. Last question in the game is about products and marketing. Single digit question: According to its advertising, how many scoops of raisins will you find in a box of Kellogg's Raisin Bran? 23 marc412 46 LeafA1996 01 randomizer.org(Marc buzzes in)Marc, to stay in the game.
