Jim: If you see fewer cars, it's no mirage, Our contestants have been winning more from our garage on...
And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen!
Me: Hello, everybody! How are ya'll doing? I'm ready to get this game going. Welcome to Card Sharks. If you heard Jim, we've been on a lucky streak with giving cars away. Our newest champion just won one, and we have a challenger who wants a piece of the action. Let's meet them right about now!
*Bill and George run to their podiums*
We welcome back Bill McDee to the show. Bill won $26,765 on his last go-around.
*cheers and applause*
Ready to go two for two in the car game?

Keep in mind, though, the more you win, the more taxes you have to pay. If it's cash, it's usually no problem, though. George Cluster is the newcomer. Let's hear about you, George.

Well, I am almost 35 years old. I am from Spartanburg, SC. I enjoy playing Mahjong, listen to 80s music, and singing. I am thinking about hosting my own version of a game show here really soon but have to work out the kinks a little. When I am not doing those 3 things I play along with game shows such as Card Sharks, Wheel of Fortune, and Hollywood Squares.

That's what we like to see here, good sportsmanship. George, let me explain how we do things here. BILL
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
GEORGE
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
You play the bottom deck, and Bill the champ gets the top one. Each of you will try to get from one side of the board to the other. Win your first round, and you win $500. Your second round earns you $1,000 and the right to play the Money Cards at the end of the show. We begin each round with a high-low question. First one of the game goes to Bill. We asked 100 people: "Do you have a MySpace account?" How many said yes, Bill? |
|
|
|
Post by billmcdee on Apr 30, 2023 18:55:38 GMT -5
I don't believe MySpace is used much if at all anymore.
I think out of 100, maybe 7 of them still have an active MySpace account.

Seven people still have an account on MySpace.
[ 7][__][__]
George, tell me if you think the actual number is higher or lower.

I say higher.

Higher than 7. [ 7][__][HI] *ding* Actual number of people who have a MySpace account is...
[ 7][ 3][HI] *dingdingding* Three of them! It was even lower than seven! Goes to show you. It was revolutionary when it came out, but it just couldn't keep up with the likes of Twitter and Facebook. BILL
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
GEORGE
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] Bill, you get the calling started. BILL
[10♠][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
GEORGE
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] You have a ten. Play it or change?

Post by billmcdee on May 1, 2023 7:14:02 GMT -5
I think I can improve on that, so I'd like to change that ten out please Kevin.

Thinking you can do better than the ten. You'll instead start off...
BILL
[8 ♥][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
GEORGE
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] An eight. Oof, not a good change. Call off the eight.

YAY! I will go higher.

Higher than the eight...
BILL
[8 ♥][8 ♠][C*S][C*S][C*S]
GEORGE
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] Nope.
*buzzer*
Darned if you do, darned if you don't. Sorry about that.
BILL

[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] George, you get a free call. Your base is...

A nine. Call off that or freeze?

Freeze.

That's your move.
BILL[8 ♥][___][C*S][C*S][C*S]
—————|GEORGE
[Q ♦][9 ♥][C*S][C*S][C*S] Nine's a little too risky for George. Let's settle in for high-low question number two. George, we sent our man on the street to Paris. He found 100 Parisians and asked the this question:
"Do you like escargot?"
How many Parisians said, "Oui" or "Yes"?
|

Post by bighornbattle on May 1, 2023 20:38:13 GMT -5
I say a lot of French people love Snails. In my opinion I never had it but heard about it. I say about 75 love Escargot.

Post by koopakid17 on May 1, 2023 20:44:56 GMT -5
To me, they go great with a tablespoon of salt. Regardless, you say 75 Parisians like escargot.
[__][__][75]
Bill?

Post by billmcdee on May 2, 2023 5:57:49 GMT -5
Perhaps the older generation would have liked it more.
I'm inclined to think lower, regardless of one's cultural upbringing and/or family lineage.

Post by koopakid17 on May 2, 2023 7:34:35 GMT -5
Lower says Bill...
[LO][__][75]
*ding* Actual number of Parisians who like escargot is...
[LO][66][75]
*dingdingding* 66 of them! Bill was right, it was just a bit lower. It boils down to preference, but give me Pierre Escargot from All That any day. BILL[8 ♥][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]

[Q ♦][9 ♥][C*S][C*S][C*S] Bill, you regain control with your eight. What do you say?

Post by billmcdee on May 2, 2023 8:16:54 GMT -5
I love 8s as much as I love escargot. Please change that.

Changing that eight to...
BILL[8 ♦][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]

[Q ♦][9 ♥][C*S][C*S][C*S] Another eight! Ooh! Now, just take comfort in knowing that there's one left in the deck. Higher or lower?

Post by billmcdee on May 2, 2023 11:56:28 GMT -5
Exactly, I am weeding them out!
I'll try higher.

But yes raring to go!
