Yahtzee! [NBC Primetime] S2E4: Archive!

[babytims]

Then take that die, throw it in the bucket and roll it! Roll a 1 or a 6 and you get the large straight...

*audience cheers as...Nels rolls*

*more cheers* You got it! Now...you have one roll left, but I have to ask the dumb question: wanna roll and go for higher or just bank the large straight?

[nelson21]

Bank it

[babytims]

Then you get the large straight!

*applause, clang*

"Which is a musical starring Gordon MacRae". Hmmm...purty big clue indeed. But of course your string of rolls end here. To keep control, you have to do the roll off...which we'll do right now. Flip the coin:

Heads. If you roll anything less than 4, you win another set of rolls.

*audience cheers as...Nels rolls*

*buzz, audience groans* Yipes stripes. A 6 is not lower than a 4, so I'm afraid you lose your turn. That means it's back to George for his go-round at the board:

George if you solve the puzzle, it'd be one step closer to becoming the new champion. You'll have a 2-nothing lead over Nels. But there is still the mystery category somewhere on that board if you wanna go for it, but you get a free shot. Do you wanna roll the dice or solve the puzzle?

[bighornbattle]

I am rolling just to be sure.

[babytims]

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

And once again we start with a pair. The kinds are still in play, as well as full house. This is roll number 2, you decide what you wanna do. Hey that rhymed!

*audience shouts suggestions*

[bighornbattle]

Wait a minute. Isn't this my 1st roll? If that's the case. I want to keep the 6's please and reroll the rest.

[babytims]

Well yes, that was your first roll...this is your second, which is why I said "This is roll number 2". But for whatever roll this is you want the sixes held...

And you want another 3 sixes for $4,000!

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

Ack. Almost a straight, though. Now...if I haven't miscounted, this is roll number 3. You can keep building on the sixes or you can take something else for your very last roll. How do you wanna play it?

[bighornbattle]

Reroll all 3 of those please.

[babytims]

Last chance to get one more 6, of course what we want is another 3.

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

And you got another 3! We can automatically give you a 3 of a kind for that roll...

*clang*

"The South" goes on the board. $14,000+ in the pot at this point George and you have the chance to keep control...if you win the roll off. First, flip that coin!

A head. Roll anything less than 4 and you keep control of the dice.

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

*audience cheers* And you keep going with a 3! Nice going, George! 

4 of a kind, Full House and Yahtzee are left. One of those categories remember can net you that Living Room Set. You have either another set of rolls or a chance to solve. What do you want to do?

[bighornbattle]

May I take a wild guess and say Carousel.

[babytims]

Ooh...let's see. Is it Carousel?

*buzz, audience groans*

It is not, so you lose control of the board as we go to Nels, and Nels gets to do something we haven't done in a while:

Nels you get to knock off any category you wish, with it's value not going into the puzzle's bank. Nels, what category is going away?

[babytims]

Bump for Nels

[nelson21]

Yahtzee please

[babytims]

There it goes...

*clang*

"Starring Gordon MacRae and Shirley Jones"...could be another big clue for you. No money added for that one, so the pot stays at $14,900. Solve the puzzle now and you tie the match. You can roll again or solve the puzzle Nels...what do you wanna do?

[nelson21]

Oklahoma

[babytims]

Is it Oklahoma?

*dings, cheers*

Yes it be! Nels tied the match!

That's one game a piece for our players here tonight, and we're nowhere near through. Next up we'll play our third round and throw one more prize on the board in addition to that living room set...and we'll show you all of that when Yahtzee returns! Stay tuned...

*theme, cheers*

[babytims]

We'll get round 3 underway in just a moment, but before we do...Mr. Stevens has a prize up his sleeve that he's gonna reveal to us all. What's the prize for this round, Shadoe?

*trip cue*

*cheers*

I hope we can give that trip away, Tokyo is just beautiful man. Just like the living room, the home viewers will be shown where that trip is hidden.

*to be added later*

And now it's sworn to secrecy. Let's get back to the game, shall we? We have a new puzzle:

*puzzle cue*

And just know that we'll play at least 2 more rounds, and the game may or may not end in a tiebreaker, because again it's whoever solves the most puzzles out of four. Usually trailing players start, but since we're at a tie...the player who didn't start round 2 starts this one. George, get into the rolling box and give the dice a good roll! Good luck!

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

And already...a pair and 2 ways to build a straight. You have 2 more chances to lock in a category, obviously you wouldn't want to put the roll in chance just yet. What do you want to hold for roll 2?

(Audience shouts suggestions)

[bighornbattle]

Keep the 6's please.

[babytims]

Get another 3 6's and you'll win the first Yahtzee of the season and $4,000! You have 2 chances to do it...

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

And you get another 6, now...

That gives you a 3 of a kind...that's the least you can get. You can go ahead and bank it right now or take that last roll, but this is your last roll...what do you wanna do now?

*audience shouts suggestions*

[bighornbattle]

Keep the 6 and reroll the 1 and 3 please.

[babytims]

That gives you 3 6's...

And if you get another 2 6's you get a Yahtzee! This is your last roll. Roll 'em!

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

*audience groans* A 2 and a 4 won't get you higher than a 3 of a kind, so that'll all you can get:

*clang*

"A famous". Big clue indeed.

*laughter*

Nonetheless you get a roll off, George. Flip the coin please.

Tails. Get anything over a 3 and you're still in business.

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

*audience cheers* And you got it! Boy you guys are good at these roll offs. Let's take another look at the board:

It's open season on the board...there's one category gone with a bunch more to claim. And I doubt you wanna solve so soon but I have to ask...roll or pass?

[bighornbattle]

Roll.

[babytims]

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

2 pairs! You know what 2 pairs can lead to George...so I must ask, for your second roll what do you wanna hold?

(Audience shouts suggestions)

[bighornbattle]

Keep the 6's and the 4's please.

[babytims]

If you get a 6 or a 4, you get a full house under your belt!

*audience cheers as...George rolls*

And there you have it!

*cheers*

That's a full house for you, do you wanna bank it or try to go for higher?

*audience shouts suggestions*

[bighornbattle]

Bank it.

[babytims]

I knew you would!

*applause, clang*

*school bell, cheers*

Ho boy! You found one of our mystery categories! This category is attached to the Living Room, so if you end up solving any puzzle this game you're going home with that Living Room! And if you solve this puzzle, you'll break the tie and go into the lead, but first we must do a roll-off! I'll flip the coin for you...

And you got tails. Get anything higher than a 3 and you'll keep control of the board:

*buzz, audience groans* And you're out of the range. Sorry George but you lose control, but you still have that prize. Nels we go back to you:

2 categories are gone and Chance is still there as a backup. My question to you is...knowing that if you lose control George can win that living room, do you wanna roll again or try to solve the puzzle?

[babytims]

Bump for Nels

[nelson21]

Roll

[babytims]

*audience cheers as...Nels rolls*

2 pairs once again. We've been in this spot before, only this time there's no full house. This is your second roll however, what's being held?
