Thank God I called the last episode the "Pilot". Nonetheless, hello folks! Welcome to The New $ale of the Century on NBC! I sure hope we have lots of fun here. If you have noted in the Workshop, I tested a new format for $ale's questioning, with puzzles replacing the questions. This is going to follow suit here. I'm gonna go ahead and start the signup process, and since I won't be online a lot this weekend, we're slating this baby to start bright and early Monday morning! So...who wants to make a bargain? |

Wait a darn minute shouldn't I get a spot since I won the pilot episode Well…no. It was just a pilot, it’s not a continuation. That pilot was just to test the waters out. I don’t usually bring the winners back from pilots. However, I can save a spot for show number 2 if you like. |

I will be glad to wait until episode 2.
I want to be fair to all, especially since I am already participating in Tony's $ale pilot episode.

Alright wait, I did say at the end of the pilot Nels would be back. So he’s gonna sit in the champion’s seat. Bill I appreciate you waiting until episode 2.
We’ll finish setting up, and we’ll start Monday morning!

I am a college student from Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada, set to be enrolled in a general arts and science program this fall. In my spare time, I love reading, writing, and bowling.

Hey! That all sounds really good. What do you hope to do with your general arts and science degree?

I would like to use it to get into university. You know, that's where the genius guys with smart brains go to!

I should've known! Maybe that's where I need to go to get some common sense. Good luck to you Mike.
Mr. Bill McDee is here with us. What's been happening with you lately?

Well to be honest I am a little confused at the moment. I thought it was agreed that Nels would be here and I wouldn't until episode #2, or did I miss something, which is quite possible with the day I have been having today.

You're absolutely right. That's a mistake on my part. Thanks Bill.
Nels, you're back with us! Last time you were here...you won about $24,400 in cash huh?
*cheers*
I'm exactly right! And you're here celebrating our series premiere with us. Do you have any plans for your money, Nels?

NOTE FROM HOST:
This has been a heck of a weekend for me, and this week's not starting off great either.
Not only have I lost my charger for my laptop, I had made the start of the first round, question and everything, and in the process NGC crashed and I lost all my progress.
Needless to say, I have a headache, and I have stuff I still need to do for school, so I'm sorry, but this show's gonna have to sit tight for a while as I recuperate.

My day yesterday was less than stellar too. I think this time change stuff doesn't help either LOL.
But in all seriousness, please let me know if I am able to help you out in any way, assuming I don't lose power here due to the Nor'Easter that's due to hit just north of us today into tomorrow.
Bill

(Let's try this again!) Well, at least it's nothing negative. Good luck to you, Nels as you try and make it 2 in a row! If we all are ready...Ms. Guabe, since we don't have a starting value for our players, could you do the Vanna White thing and show us the board? Alexis: Well, I can't gesture like she can, but sure! Here comes the board fellas, good luck!*applause, ding* Thanks Alexis. Now players, above your heads is 6 boxes, and in a moment I'll tap my magic wand and a rabbit will come out of one of them.*scattered laughter*Well, no rabbit, but we have words in the top boxes and in the bottom center box, we have a "common letter". Your goal is to place the common letter under the right word that completes the phrase, given a clue. Give the right phrase and you'll get the chance to choose a top box which holds some money inside of it, which you can then use later on to buy a few wonderful prizes at a bargain price! If we all are ready, let's get this train started with our first phrase:*ding*
 Given the letter M, and "Washing", "Vending", and "Laundry", the clue is "They take your clothes for a spin". Where does the M go to complete the phrase?Kevin: 45Nels: 38Mike: 76Buzzcode: 97*Mike buzzes in*
And Mike buzzes in! Where does the M go, Mike? |

Washing machine.

There you go. *ding, applause*  Now time to make some money. In 2 of these boxes is a $5 bill, but there's a $10 bill in the other one. Which of the top boxes has the $10 bill inside? |

Post by thunderwheeler501 on Mar 17, 2023 11:19:43 GMT -5
I'll take the one under "vending".

Under "Vending" we see...  A $10 bill! $10 goes to your bank...*ding* |
