A brand new episode of Split Second is now live.
Normally, we supposed to have a returning champion, but Raymond Weaver will NOT be joining us due to uneligibility. Therefore, I'm looking for THREE new players. The winner will have a chance to drive home in a brand new automobile.
Good luck to all of you.

Alrighty then... let's get to work! In round 1, I'll be asking a question with the three possible clues that you see on my monitor. But our three contestants will be giving us only one answer in each clue. If all three of you give me a correct answer, you'll each earn $50. If the two of you give me a correct answer, the both of you wll each get $100. But... if one person comes up with the correct answer, that player will be awarded $250. Oh... and one important thing-- if that player is the only one who have answered the question correctly, will be awarded a Singleton prize. Dean, tell us about this Singleton prize that we have for today. [PRIZE CUE]Dean: This collection of kitchen appliances by Cuisinart includes a 7-quart stand mixer, 14-cup food processor, coffeemaker, vertical rotisserie, convection toaster oven, and juicer. Plus, a countertop water filtration system, rice cooker, and also included is a 12-piece stainless steel cookware set! All from Cuisinart -- savor the good life! Retail value: $2,040![CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: If the three of you guys are ready, here comes the first clue as we begin round 1. Pick one of these U.S. cities and tell me if they are located BELOW or ABOVE sea level?Gents, take a look at the screen. * You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100.
