Here it is, The $100,000-Pyramid. This is how everything will work.
1/2 a second for each word by the clue giver.
1 second for each guess by the receiver.
1 second for a pass by either team member.
1 second for a cuckoo or a Winner's Circle buzz.
No time penalty for a correct ruling by the host.
The only restriction for the main game is you can't give "the essence". If a compound word which includes the essence is given as a clue, it will be cuckooed (e.g. "Mother" is an acceptable clue for "Father" but "Outdoor" will be deemed illegal for "Indoor"). You can also give action tags at the cost of one second apiece. While you can say *points to happy mouth* for "Smile", you can't say *points to smile*, obviously.
For the Winner's Circle, you MAY:
-Use bold, italics, CAPS or ALL THREE.
-Use *nods* or *shakes head* at the cost of one second apiece.
-Give more than one clue or guess per subject, just be sure each is separated by a comma. If one of the guesses in a multi-guess post is the correct one, any incorrect guesses after that will not count towards the time.
You May NOT:
-Use the essence, descriptions, prepositional phrases or synonyms. (Exceptions apply to categories such as "'What X Might Say'", "What You Do To X" and "Why You X")
-Use action tags other than *nods* or *shakes head*.
-Use wordplay to convey the essence.
The first three different contestants to beat the Winner's Circle will play for $100,000 in the tournament. There will be returning champions and you can only sign up to play again if you get defeated without qualifying for the tournament.
Enough talk.
I need two celebrities and two contestants. If I have more than two contestants sign up, there will be a waiting list for the next qualifier episode.
