And players, we're just 2 rolls in, and there are already some Bad Rolls up there, so this is where control of the dice becomes crucial. Here's the next question.

It's spelling time! Noun: A stone coffin.

A. Sarcophagus
B. Sarcophagos
C. Sarcoughogus
D. Sarcouphagous

Nels: 70
Matt: 68
Immanuel: 35

Magic #: 23

(Buzz-In!)

And Immanuel buzzes in! What's your answer?

[babytims]

Sarcophagus

[dad90]

Sarcophagus is the correct word!

(Audience Applause)

That was the winning word in the 1981 Spelling Bee contest. The adjective sarcophagous means flesh-eating.

Now, first of all, Immanuel, pick up the dice.

(Immanuel does so)

BAD ROLLS: 4 5

I can tell you right now that 4 and 5 are the only Bad Rolls. You can roll the dice yourself and avoid those 2 Bad Rolls and get some prizes in your bank or you can pass the dice to one of your opponents in the hopes that he rolls either a 4 or a 5. What are you going to do?

[babytims]

I'm gonna roll! Come on, dice!

[dad90]

Let's see what happens.

(Immanuel rolls the dice)



And it's a Double for you!

(Doubles!) (Audience Applause)

You've got your first Insurance Marker, and you've rolled an 11. There are a couple of ways to play off that. Which number(s) do you want to take off?

[babytims]

1, 2, and 8

[dad90]

Going for 1, 2, and 8. Behind those numbers are...

[1]--[2]--[XX]--[XX]
[Air Hockey Table]--[1/2 Cape Cod Trip]--[XX]--[XX]

[XX]--[?]--[?]--[1/2 Cape Cod Trip]

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

Immanuel: 1/Air Hockey Table, Trip to Cape Cod

[XX]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[XX]--[?]--[?]--[?]

Immanuel, you've lucked out on finding both halves of the trip, but of course, in order to keep that and the Air Hockey Table, you have to win this round. Already, we are down to 5 numbers on the board and the number of Good Rolls have dropped dramatically. So control of the dice is becoming more important. Here's the next question.

Players, I can tell you right now that the answer to this question will start with the letter "G."

G: The easternmost city in New Zealand touts itself as "the first city in the world to see the sun." What is its name?

A. Greerton
B. Greymouth
C. Gisborne
D. Greytown

Nels: 23
Matt: 78
Immanuel: 70

Magic #: 22

(Buzz-In!)

And Nels buzzes in! What's your answer?

[nelson21]

C

[dad90]

Gisborne is the city we're looking for!

(Audience Applause)

Gisborne is the easternmost city in the world, situated at latitude 178E and longitude 39S. Greymouth is on the west coast of the South Island. Greytown is in the Wairarapa region. Greerton is a suburb of the city of Tauranga.

OK Nels, pick up the dice.

The Good Rolls are now 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17 and 18. Would you like to roll the dice or pass them over to one of your opponents?

[nelson21]

I’ll roll

[dad90]

You are going to roll the dice. Go ahead, Nels!

(Nels rolls the dice)



And it's another Double!

(Doubles!) (Audience Applause)

That's your 2nd Insurance Marker, and the roll is a 10, and there's only one way to do that, and that is to take out the 10 by itself, and what's the prize below that number?

All of a sudden, there are now 4 numbers left on the board, and there are more Bad Rolls popping up, so those Insurance Markers AND control of the dice are becoming more important. Of course, the control of the dice will depend on whoever answers this next question correctly, and here it is.

Now, the letter X isn't used often, but when it comes to sizes, it is used frequently, like X for Extra, XX for Double Extra and XXX for Triple Extra. However, in Australian terms, what is an XXXX (aka Fourex)?

A. A type of car
B. A movie classification
C. A type of beer
D. A type of waterproof jacket

Nels: 87
Matt: 97
Immanuel: 7

Magic #: 93

(Buzz-In!)

And Matt buzzes in! What's your answer?

[mringgenberg]

A type of waterproof jacket

[dad90]

(Buzzer)

That is wrong, I'm afraid. Anyone else want to take a shot?

(Buzz-In!)

And Nels buzzes in! What's your answer?

[nelson21]

Type of beer

[dad90]

A type of beer is correct!

(Audience Applause)

XXXX or Fourex beer is brewed by Castlemaine Perkins. The main brewery is in Brisbane, the capital of Queensland. The name XXXX originates from a tradition of using X's to designate the strength of the brew. At one stage the beer was marketed with the slogan: "Australians wouldn't give a XXXX for anything else"!

OK Nels, pick up the dice.

[nelson21]

Pass to Matt

[dad90]

Well Matt, Nels has passed the dice over to you, and you don't have anything under you and no Insurance Markers, meaning that if you get a Bad Roll and you are out of this round. So good luck and roll the dice and let's get some prizes!

(Matt rolls the dice)



It's a 9, and it's a one and done deal for you!

Unfortunately Matt, you had one roll to get back in this game, and it didn't work out and takes you out of this round, but not out of the game, as you'll have one last chance to redeem yourself in the Elimination Round, so we'll see you then.

Now, we're down to Nels and Immanuel, and one of you will win some good prizes, but who's going to win this round and head to the Championship Round? Let's find out as we go into our next question.

He was the first driver to win the Daytona 500, the Indianapolis 500, and the Formula One World Championship. Name him.

A. Emerson Fitipaldi
B. A.J. Foyt
C. Mario Andretti
D. Al Unser

Nels: 84
Immanuel: 38

Magic #: 28

(Buzz-In!)

And Immanuel buzzes in! What's your answer?

[babytims]

Mario Andretti

[dad90]

Mario Andretti is correct!

(Audience Applause)

He won the Daytona 500 in 1967, the Indianapolis 500 in 1969, and Formula One in 1978.

Immanuel, pick up the dice.

GOOD ROLLS: 6 7 11 12 13 17 18

Once again, the Good Rolls are now 6, 7, 11, 12, 13, 17 and 18. Would you like to roll the dice or pass them over to Nels?

[babytims]

I’m rolling!

[dad90]

You are going to take a chance and roll the dice! You have an Insurance Marker, so you have at least 2 chances of rolling something good. Let's go, Immanuel!

(Immanuel rolls the dice)



And the roll is 13, and in this case, it's a lucky number for you! And the only way to play that is to take out the 6 and the 7. What are the prizes below those 2 numbers?

Well players, there are 2 numbers left on the board, and coincidentally, they are the only Good Rolls left: 11 and 12. So this will be the next-to-last question of the round. Control of the dice becomes very important.

The excrement of bats is used for fertilizer and gunpowder. What is this material called?

A. Copra
B. Poop
C. Guano
D. Droppings

Nels: 63
Immanuel: 14

Magic #: 10

(Buzz-In!)

And Immanuel buzzes in! What's your answer?

[babytims]

Copra

[dad90]

(Buzzer)

Copra is incorrect. Nels, care to buzz-in?

(Buzz-In!)

And Nels buzzes in! What's your answer?

[nelson21]

C

[dad90]

Guano is right!

(Audience Applause)

There is an extremely high amount of both nitrogen and phosphorus in the droppings of bats and various sea birds. Since the time of the Incas of Peru, guano has been used to enrich the soil for planting. Guano is also odorless and it is used by organic farmers.

Nels, pick up the dice.

GOOD ROLLS: 11 12

There are only 2 Good Rolls left, and those are 11 and 12. You have 2 Insurance Markers; Immanuel has 1. Are you going to roll the dice or pass them over to Immanuel?

[nelson21]

Pass

[dad90]

Immanuel, Nels has passed the dice over to you. You have an Insurance Marker to protect you from one bad roll. Let's see if you can get either an 11 or a 12. Roll the dice!

(Immanuel rolls the dice)



It's an 8, and that's a Bad Roll, so I have to take that Insurance Marker away from you.

Insurance Markers/Prizes:

Nels: 2/Treadmill, Grill, Headphone Collection, Electric Guitar, Photo Booth
Matt: 0/None (OUT)
Immanuel: 0/Air Hockey Table, Trip to Cape Cod, Tool Package, Computer

And now, it could come down to this. If you don't roll either a Double, an 11 or a 12, and Nels will be moving on to the Championship Round. Good luck, Immanuel.

(Immanuel rolls the dice)


































































































And it's a Double!

(Doubles!) (Audience Applause)

The good news is you've rolled a Double, but the bad news is the roll is 16, which is a bad roll, so the Insurance Marker that you've just earned must be used immediately, and you have to roll again.

(Immanuel rolls the dice)







































































































And the roll is...







































































































































































































OH! It's 13; one off from 12, and I'm afraid that it's over!

(Bad Roll! You're OUT!)

Now, in the next 2 rounds, the Bonuses are in play, and I'll tell you more about those in a bit, but right now, we got our 4 columns...

And we're going to fill them with our 12 numbers in a moment, but first, we need to load them up with prizes, and in this round, we're allowing only 1 prize per column based on the Wink Martindale version in 1987, so Burton, what do we have in Column 1?

A pleasant, controlled ride is another Tiguan strength, as is the vast amount of passenger and cargo space. Also comes with a 2-liter engine, 8-speed Automatic Transmission, Front Wheel Drive, and a panoramic moonroof.

The potential maximum value of this column is $28,245!

(More Cheers and Applause)

DK: And last, but not least, Column #4!

Burton: For Column #4, we've got...



a new refrigerator!



(Audience Applause)

Which brings the value of the entire board to $43,013!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

DK: Thank you, Burton! And now, let's load the 4 Columns with our numbers, and here they are!

(Drum Solo)

8	7	3	11
1	4	12	2
9	5	6	10

We do have 2 Hot Columns for this round, and they are Columns 1 and 2, where a roll of 18 and 16 will win you the luggage set and the bedroom set, respectively.

Now, as I've mentioned, we have the bonuses in play, and here they are!

ALL COLUMNS JACKPOT - $80,000
3 HOT COLUMNS JACKPOT - $37,500
LAST NUMBER CLEARED BONUS - $8,000

If you get 3 Hot Columns before the game is over and become the champion, and you'll win the 3 Hot Columns Jackpot of $37,500. Get all columns in one round, and you'll win an extra $80,000 from the All Columns Jackpot, and if you clear the last number(s), you'll win the Last Number Cleared Bonus of $8,000. And they will go up in each round every time it isn't won.

Now players, in order to win those prizes, you have to clear out a Column by eliminating the numbers from that column and win this round. Otherwise, you will be Eliminated from the game.

Plus, we now have added True-or-False and Yes-or-No questions. And also, from this point on, if you get a question wrong, your opponent gets control of the dice by default.

With all that said, here's the first question of the Elimination Round.

What goes up anyway?

A. The Bull Market
B. The Bear Market

Matt: 95
Immanuel: 66

Magic #: 100
