I'll go for the double in Triple Play.

A double-triple, eh?
Each correct answer adds money to the pot. An incorrect answer at any point puts the pot at stake. Normally, the first question is $25, but since you have a joker, it's $50, and a clean sweep is $500. First question: The writer Eric Blair went by what pen name? |

I see we scored some puns there. Anyway, that's right for one. *scattered laughter, ding, applause*  Funny how the category has a baseball term yet we made puns about basketball. Get this next question right for an extra $50:
In what ocean did the Titanic sink? |

The Atlantic.

The North Atlantic Ocean, that's right! *ding, applause* Get this next question right and you'll not only have $500, but you'll go down in history as being our first Triple Play winner, but just not for the full $750: “Stairway to Heaven” a song by English rock band Led Zeppelin was originally released on which of their albums? |

Honestly, I'm not sure. I'll just say it's the namesake: Stairway to Heaven.

*buzz, audience groans*
That is incorrect, the pot freezes at $150. Nick, that pot and an extra $100 is yours if you can give me the right answer.

I think it was the album commonly known as LED ZEPPELIN IV.

It sure is and the pot is yours! *dings, applause*  It's only $250, but it's still something. You also pick up control of the board. Spin it! |

I will go for MODERN AND POP MUSIC for $200.

 Actually, I forgot to mention this at the top of the round, we play this round to $2,000 so all amounts double, Doubles are now $400. Under the category of Modern and Pop Music.
Which group had a top ten hit in 1980 with the song “To Cut A Long Story Short”?
|

Post by GMNick on Jul 9, 2022 20:22:44 GMT -5
$400 it is then. And I think that particular song was sung by SPANDAU BALLET.

You're absolutely right! *ding, applause*  $350 away from winning the match. Kevin, now's the time to get in the game. Spin the board. |

Very well. You know how this works, each correct answer adds money to the pot. An incorrect answer at any point puts the pot at stake. Now, you have 2 jokers, so the question value triples, this first question is worth $75:
What song by Michael Jackson contains the lyrics “Annie are you OK"?

"Pretty Young Thing".

I see our audience is Michael Jackson fans. Sorry, your triple play game ends quickly. Nick, I'll give you a regular triple value, or $800 if you can give me a right answer.

That would be a song also done by ALIEN ANT FARM called SMOOTH CRIMINAL.

Post by babytims on Jul 11, 2022 23:03:37 GMT -5
That's one of my favorite songs of Michael's, purely because it has my favorite music video. Anyway, you're right! *ding, applause*  Nick, you're now one question away from becoming our first champion. Kevin, you need to capitalize. Nick, give the board a spin. |

 Good luck Nick, answer 3 questions correctly and the bank is yours, otherwise you'll put the bank in jeopardy. First question:
IN THE 1999 HORROR MOVIE LAKE PLACID, WHICH TYPE OF ANIMAL TERRORIZED THE RESIDENTS OF BLACK LAKE, MAINE? |
