(dings; audience cheers)That's it. Now then... ...even with two rolls of the dice, you may not even need them... ...because you get a chance to solve this puzzle, David.

Okay, first let's check with the judge -- because if one non-double roll cannot be played, we've got to be in play-or-pass mode. (inaudible ruling from judge) Judge says, David, you are on a roll. (audience cheers as...) (David rolls)And it's a 6 and a 3... ...or a 9 -- and the only way to play the roll is the sum. |

(Havana touches screen) And it's a G. David, you may guess the top clue if you'd like. A wrong guess or a pass means it's a crucial name game.

(TPiR Pathfinder wrong move sfx)Great guess -- but that's not it. Okay, with no rolls on the board -- we need to get ready for that crucial name game. With numbers getting scarce on the board, play-or-pass mode is imminent. So -- everyone play carefully as we move on this. (FF reveal sfx)It's an eight-letter name game. And here's the question. Who got on a roll in motorsports -- when he won the South African Grand Prix in 1971? (ding)
(David and Immanuel, please PM me a buzz code from 1-100 and your answer.)

(buzz buzz) No ideas? No problem. Three more letters are coming after I repeat the question. Who got on a roll in motorsports -- when he won the South African Grand Prix in 1971? (ding)

David? David: Andretti (dings; audience applause)Mario Andretti is right. One of the greats in auto racing, for certain. Okay, David, please step in the box. Four rolls are yours. You -- are on a roll. (audience cheers as...) (David rolls)And you're starting this round with a 1 and a 6... ...or a 7. The sixes are gone and blocked -- but you may take the 1 in the bottom row -- or either 7. |

(Havana touches screen) It's an I. David, all rolls beyond doubles still work. So -- can't pass the dice yet. You may guess the bottom row's clue or roll again.

(Havana touches screen) Twelfth letter in the top letter is an N. Numbers are getting scarce -- but every roll beyond doubles can still be made. So, Immanuel, you may guess the top row's clue or roll the bones.

Oh I don’t know…the pigs from Angry Birds?

(audience cheers) If that's it, David, there's good news in this for you. First, let's consider the answer as Immanuel gave it to us. For the game -- is it -- the pigs from Angry Birds?  (dings; SCSD win theme plays; audience cheers) Judge accepts. That's a win for Immanuel. Now, here's the thing. Technically, they're considered bad piggies in the mobile game Angry Birds. There's also a spinoff game called Bad Piggies. So that's why this was the main solution. Although we just accepted simply "pigs from Angry Birds" as a correct answer from Immanuel; those antagonists are also commonly considered just pigs. So, Immanuel there's no way we could say you were wrong. As we look at the last clue... ...lo and behold -- it's Angry Birds. Now, here's the good new for you, David. An irregularity cropped up in this game -- really before the game started. You'll recall our producer added in a little extra game as a time-filler -- oddly enough entitled Pig. That served as a big-time unintentional extra clue about this puzzle. So, this is how we will resolve this game. Immanuel, we will move forward with a Level 3 game of Big 6. David, you will not be assessed a strike. You'll play against Immanuel in the next main game. If time permits in *this show*, and I'm sure we will have time, we will let you play one of our sidebar games for a bonus prize. Sound fair?

[NOTE FROM DOUG: Starting with this post, deadlines will be relaxed since Immanuel, and later David, and possibly an audience game player T.B.D., will each play "against the house". This is also due to scheduled absences by this host. Please see the vacation section for more details.]
(audience cheers)Immanuel Tims is $29,700 to the good -- and is looking to win more at a Level 3 game of Big 6. Wally, may we have the numbers, please. (FF reveal sfx) Thanks, Wally. Immanuel, you know how the game works. Four rolls to uncover as many letters of this secret word as you can. Wally, a hint, please. (ding)Gee whiz -- thing -- not much of a hint. Well, gotta roll two different numbers each time. If you roll doubles or two different numbers that you've already played, it's a wasted roll. The sooner you solve, the more money you win. Need to solve the word -- to play Lucky 7 where big money awaits. Good luck, Immanuel. You -- are on a roll. (audience cheers as...) (Immanuel rolls)(audience groans)(buzz)Doubles off the bat! Rats indeed. We're down to $5000 quickly. Shake it off and try it again. (audience cheers as...) (Immanuel rolls)And it's a 5 and a 4 this time. Better. Would you like the fourth or fifth letter?

Good a guess as any. Wally, for $5000, is this thing -- a quicky? (buzz)No. Sorry. We're down to $2500 and two rolls. (audience cheers as...) (Immanuel rolls)And you get a 5 and a 2. Would you like the second or fifth letter? |
