Shederick, kiss the Clean Sweep Bonus goodbye because Immanuel just got a right answer! All of the Above is right! The Eagle and the Beetle The Young Crab and His Mother All of the Above None of the Above(Audience Applause)The Eagle and the Beetle is one of Aesop's Fables and often referred to in Classical times. It is numbered 3 in the Perry Index and the episode became proverbial. Although different in detail, it can be compared to the fable of The Eagle and the Fox. In both cases the eagle believes itself safe from retribution for an act of violence and is punished by the destruction of its young. The Young Crab and His Mother follows the tale of a little crab who's antics shed light on an important lesson for his mother: To set a good example. Immanuel, you are now allowed to discard one card from your hand and put that in the bottom of the deck. CARDS TOTAL:
IMMANUEL: 10 SHEDERICK: 4And with that, the Clean Sweep Bonus is now out of play, and Immanuel, if you can answer the next 3 questions correctly, and we'll double your point total. Here we go with the next question. Smooth Head Clapper All of the Above None of the Above

IMMANUEL: 9 SHEDERICK: 6Now, this is our next-to-last question, which means that this is your last chance to discard 1 card from your hand, and Immanuel, you still need to answer these 2 questions correctly in order for us to double your point total. Here it is. Casablanca Anna Karenina All of the Above None of the Above

Casablanca

Post by dad90 on Aug 27, 2022 21:31:08 GMT -5
And you are wrong as well. Actually, it's All of the Above on this one. Casablanca
Anna Karenina All of the Above None of the AboveYeah, Casablanca is a 1942 American romantic drama film directed by Michael Curtiz, and starring Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, and Paul Henreid. Filmed and set during World War II, it focuses on an American expatriate (Bogart) who must choose between his love for a woman (Bergman) or helping her and her husband (Henreid), a Czech resistance leader, escape from the Vichy-controlled city of Casablanca to continue his fight against the Germans. When the police arrest Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid) on a trumped-up charge, Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart) persuades Captain Louis Renault (Claude Rains) to release him by promising to set him up for a much more serious crime: possession of the letters of transit. To allay Renault's suspicions, Rick explains that he and Ilsa Lund (Ingrid Bergman) will be leaving for America. When Renault tries to arrest Laszlo as arranged, Rick forces him at gunpoint to assist in their escape. At the last moment, Rick makes Ilsa board the plane to Lisbon with Laszlo, telling her that she would regret it if she stayed, "Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life." Although Casablanca was an A-list film with established stars and first-rate writers, no one involved with its production expected it to stand out among the hundreds of pictures produced by Hollywood yearly. Casablanca was rushed into release to take advantage of the publicity from the Allied invasion of North Africa a few weeks earlier. It had its world premiere on November 26, 1942, in New York City and was released nationally in the United States on January 23, 1943. The film was a solid if unspectacular success in its initial run. Exceeding expectations, Casablanca went on to win the Academy Award for Best Picture, while Michael Curtiz was selected as Best Director and Brothers Julius and Philip G. Epstein and Howard Koch were honored for Best Adapted Screenplay. Its reputation has gradually grown, to the point that its lead characters, memorable lines, and pervasive theme song have all become iconic, and it consistently ranks near the top of lists of the greatest films in history. In 1989, the United States Library of Congress selected the film as one of the first for preservation in the National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". As for Anna Karenina, it's a 2012 historical romantic drama film directed by Joe Wright. Adapted by Tom Stoppard from Leo Tolstoy's 1877 novel of the same name, the film depicts the tragedy of Russian aristocrat and socialite Anna Karenina, wife of senior statesman Alexei Karenin, and her affair with the affluent cavalry officer Count Vronsky. Keira Knightley stars in the leading role as Karenina. It earned four nominations at the 85th Academy Awards and six nominations at the 66th British Academy Film Awards, winning Jacqueline Durran both prizes for Best Costume Design. In addition, Anna Karenina garnered six nominations at the 17th Satellite Awards, including a Best Actress nod for Knightley and Best Adapted Screenplay for Stoppard. At the end of the movie, poor Anna was on a train heading towards Moscow, and after believing that her relationship with her husband is over after having an affair with another, she starts to think of suicide as an escape from her torments. In her mental and emotional confusion, she sends a telegram to Count Alexei Kirillovich Vronsky asking him to come home to her, and then pays a visit to Princess Darya "Dolly" Alexandrovna Oblonskaya and Princess Ekaterina "Kitty" Alexandrovna Shcherbatskaya. Anna's confusion and anger overcome her and, in conscious symmetry with the railway worker's death on her first meeting with Vronsky, from ground level at the end of a railway platform, she throws herself with fatal intent between the wagon wheelsets of a passing freight train, but not before saying, "Oh God. Forgive me." Whew! So after all of that, it looks like tragedy for both of you as well, because you each get 2 cards added to your hand. CARDS TOTAL:
IMMANUEL: 11 SHEDERICK: 8So, with that, Immanuel, the bad news is that your point total stays right where it is, and you have 11 cards, but the good news is that you've answered 2 questions correctly, and you got an additional $1,000. Shederick, you have answered the first 3 questions correctly, and you pick up $1,500 for that. IMMANUEL <-----> SHEDERICK
340 <-----> 1289
$7316 <-----> $75,065 DRAW PILE: 89
LAST CARD PLAYED: [-----] There are the updated money totals, and with 19 cards out in the open, excluding the Deflect cards, there are now 89 cards left in the deck. We got still got a lot of special cards that can change the game around at a moment's notice, but with strategy, knowledge and luck, you could win this round AND the game! For our 50th Anniversary of Uno, we now have these 2 special items... The Wild 50/50 Card and the 50th Anniversary UNO Gold Coin! Whoever plays this card will go head-to-head with your opponent in a good ol' Coin Toss Shootout. Now, to one who plays the Wild 50/50 card, you will get to decide who's going to be "Heads" and who is going to be "Tails". The side of the coin that says "UNO" will represent "Heads", and the side of the coin that has the number "50" on it will represent "Tails". Mari will flip the coin, and it'll land on the mat to see where it lands. Now, whoever LOSES the Coin Toss will have to Draw Four cards from the deck and add them to their hand. And since that this also counts as a Wild Card, the player who played this card will choose the color of their choice before resuming gameplay. And there's one important element that's going to determine the fate of our players... And that's the lucky UNO Wild Jackpot Slot Machine! This machine is a little bit different than normal slot machines, because instead of paying cash and coins, it awards cards and a bunch of surprises! Now in order to spin the slot machine, which Mari will do, you will need to play one of these two cards... ...and they are the Jackpot Card and the Wild Jackpot Card. A regular Jackpot card may only be played on a matching color or on another Jackpot card. The Wild Jackpot card can be played ON ANY TURN, even if you have another playable card in your hand. There's a possibility that one of these cards may come up first, and should that be the case, then the one who has control of the cards will then get to determine who gets the first customized card from the machine, and if it's a Wild Jackpot card, and the one who has control of the cards will get to determine the color to start play. And speaking for control of the cards, here comes the final Headstart question to determine who gets control. Here are the answers. Little Rock Jill Valentine All of the Above None of the AboveAnd the question is this... Which of the following are characters from The Walking Dead?Immanuel: 82 Shederick: 20 Magic #: 98 (Buzz-In!)And Immanuel buzzes in! What's your answer?

None of the Above is correct! Little Rock Jill Valentine
All of the Above None of the Above(Audience Applause)By the way, Jill Valentine is a character in Resident Evil, a survival horror video game series created by Japanese company Capcom. She was introduced as one of two player characters in the original Resident Evil. Little Rock is a city in Arkansas. For getting that last question right Shederick, you'll have an important decision to make in a moment, but first, let me explain on what we have inside the Wild Jackpot Slot Machine tonight. Now... On the Wild Jackpot Slot Machine, you'll discover these various possibilities. So... If this pops up, you can choose any player, including yourself to get either a custom card or a custom Wild card. If this pops up, the player on the right gets a card from the machine, and in this case, it's Shederick. If this pops up, the player on the left gets a card from the machine, and in this case, it's Immanuel. If this pops up, BOTH players get a card from the machine, starting from the player who played a Jackpot card. Now if this pops up, this could actually help you with your main goal of getting rid of all of your cards. This one will allow you to discard UP TO one card of EACH COLOR in your hand to the LAST CARD PLAYED pile. You can play the cards in any order you like. If any of the cards you play are action cards, each one will affect the next player. However, we've added a little more variety into the machine as we've taken a page out of the Nick Arcade handbook. This machine also contains the 4 P's... [POINTS] [PUZZLES] [POP QUIZZES] [PRIZES] ... Points, Puzzles, Pop Quizzes and Prizes. However players, do be careful, because we also have this... I don't have to tell what this one does, right? However, to the ones who have just tuned in, I'll explain. If this one pops up, you'll automatically draw 4 cards from the Draw Pile, and you will LOSE your turn in the process. Now, all questions in this final round are worth 75 points, while puzzles vary from 75 to 225 points. So Immanuel, you better find these in order for you to catch up. We have lots and lots of cards inside the machine, and I think it's high-time that we need to find out what's inside the machine tonight. I know for sure that we'll always have these cards inside the machine every time we play this final round... * 3 Deflect Cards - Explained Earlier * 3 Pass 1 Card - Give away 1 card to your opponent * 1 Pass 2 Cards - Give away 2 cards to your opponent * 3 Skip Cards - Self-Explanatory * 3 Reverse Cards - Self-Explanatory * 3 Shuffle Cards - The entire Draw Pile will then be shuffled * 3 Bandit Cards - A Bandit will steal cash and/or points from your opponent * 3 Swap Cards - The top card and the bottom card from the Draw Pile will be swapped * 3 Sneak Peek Cards - Only you will get to see the top 3 cards from the Draw Pile * 3 Jammer Cards - The player chooses one of the opponent's cards at random. The opponent's selected card is 'jammed', and cannot be played for that next turn * 2 Black Hole * Cards - All cards in all hands are shuffled into a pile and then dealt to each person with the same number they had before. Now during the commercial break, Shederick has been given an advantage to choose 8 more customizable cards and put them into the machine, and only he knows the details of those cards. The 8 cards he chose are... Time Travel One card to rule them all * Hare One for me * Backwards * Multiple choice * End of line * Three for you *
The ones with a star are customized Wild cards. And then finally, a producer chosen at random has placed 2 more special cards that both of our players don't know, and they are... Assassinate SilenceThe details will be revealed once that player draws that card. So all in all, that's a total of 40 cards that will always be loaded into the Wild Jackpot Slot Machine. Other than that, this is played just like in Classic UNO. Now with all that explained, we go back over to Shederick, who now has a big decision to make. Would you like to go first, or would you like Immanuel to go first? Don't answer that question just yet, because there's one more thing that I almost forgot to tell you... SCORING:0 = 300 POINTS! 1-6 = 3-18 Points 7 = -77, -177, or -277 Points 8-9 = 24-27 Points Skip = 60 Points Reverse = 60 Points Draw +2 = 60 Points Jackpot = 120 Points Wild / Wild Jackpot / Wild Draw Four = 150 Points Custom Cards / Wild = 75 Points ** Wild Draw Four Out The Gate = -50 Points (EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY!) ** High Hand = -20 Points (EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY!) Whoever decides to go first should now approach with extreme caution: If a Wild Draw Four card comes out as the first card, not only you'll automatically lose 50 points, but you also must draw 4 cards from the top of the deck immediately! Not to mention that your opponent will get to choose a color to start play and will get to go first. (Audience Oohs)And if that happens, then at the end of the round, whoever has more cards than their opponent will lose 20 points immediately! (Louder Oohs)And sometimes, those 2 events may determine the winner of the entire game, so in this final round, every point (and dollar) counts! HOWEVER! I can tell you right now that ONE (AND ONLY ONE!) of those Wild Cards from the UNO Wild Jackpot Slot Machine is an Automatic Win card, and whoever plays that card, AUTOMATICALLY WINS THE GAME right then and there, regardless of score! (Audience Gasps)Now, I CANNOT tell you WHAT card it is, but Shederick does, but Immanuel, that also means that this UNO Wild Jackpot Slot Machine is your Golden Ticket to winning the championship, BUT you must make sure that you win this round BEFORE time runs out, because if Time runs out, and if you do not catch up to Shederick in time, and Shederick will become our champion for the second night in a row. So Shederick, with all of that said, I now await your decision.

You have decided to go first. Very best of luck to the 2 of you, and may the best man win.
Here we go as the top card of the deck reveals to be...
[+2]
Ouch! A Draw Two card! Unfortunately for you, you are going to be drawing two cards from the top of the deck, and you will end your turn right there, but you should be lucky that it wasn't a Wild Draw Four.
Immanuel, we now suddenly come over to you. If you have any more Draw Two cards, play one of them now and make Shederick draw 2 more cards, or if it's red, you can play that card also. Otherwise, you must draw from the deck.
