On Monday, we’ll begin the official launch of High Rollers on NBC! Big prizes, big money, and big numbers all around are in store.
What I need is a George Cluster and Kevin Kolsen, since we ended the pilot in the middle of a match, and I need a new player to sign up to play against the winner! I also need all 3 players to submit their buzzcodes as per usual.
Who wants to play with some dice?

I have family from there, considering that my grandmother also hails from Long Island, New York! From one quarter-Yorkie to another, I wish you the best of luck as you try for more loot.
George Cluster's with us. Last time you were here, George, you said you loved classic game shows. Do you have a favorite one in particular?

It is a toss up between High Rollers and Split Second.

*cheers* Was hoping you'd say that! Good luck to you today George as you try to make it two in a row. Right now, we'll play some High Rollers: ![]()  Right now, the board is empty. Let's rectify that. George couldn't cash in on that cruise in our last match, so it goes back on the board this round. Before we get to that, in column 1 we already have a diamond ring, what else are we adding, Dean? *prize cue* Dean: We're gonna put up a floor clock. Finished in Windsor Cherry on select hardwoods and veneers. This large curio floor clock from the Broadmour Collection features an arched pediment which showcases bookmatched, rare olive ash burl overlays. This clock is worth $6,449, bringing the value of column 1 to $10,198!*cheers*  Over ten grand now. Let's keep it going with column 2. What's going with that Lego set? *prize cue*  Dean: 2 things that really go together, we have a man's tuxedo! Featuring a black monochrome tuxedo in metallic base with a polymer lapel and embroidery. It is paired with a matching shirt and pants. This tux is worth $2,925, bringing the value of column 2 to $7,335!
*cheers*  If you wanna look classy while building a Lego set, this is the way to do it folks! Hey you know we still have that lovely cruise in column 3, in keeping with a watery theme, what accompanies the cruise, Dean? *prize cue*  Dean: A jet ski! The Yamaha VX Cruiser Jet Ski is a high-performance watercraft that offers an exhilarating experience for water sports enthusiasts. This Jet Ski is designed with a sleek and sporty look, as well as a range of features that make it stand out from its competitors. One of the key features of the Yamaha VX Cruiser is its powerful engine, which provides quick acceleration and impressive speed. This jet ski is worth $10,434, pushing the value of the second round to...$47,677!*cheers*  Hey! This is gonna be a great round to be sure! Over $47,000 just waiting to be won...oh wait, that's the wrong show. *laughter* Let's see this round's numbers: *drumroll*   For the first time this series, we have 2 hot columns! Hot columns are columns that can be cleared with one roll of the dice. In this case, a roll of an 11 will get you the ring and the clock, and a set of boxcars get you the cruise and Wave Runner. Here's how this works: I'll ask you two a question, and the one of you who answers correctly gets control of the dice: you can either roll the dice or pass it to your opponent and force them to roll. Knock out a column and the prize, or prizes, pertaining to that column goes to your bank, and if you win a game you win all of the prizes on your side of the board. But you guys probably know that already, so let's quit the gabber and start today's festivities: Arthur
Wales
Mountbatten-Windsor
What is King Charles III’s surname?
Kevin: 32 George: 25 Buzzcode: 6 *George buzzes in*  George! |

*buzz buzz* Incorrect. We were looking for Mountbatten-Windsor. Kevin gets the first roll of the round! All rolls are good Kev, no need to pass. Roll 'em! *audience cheers as...Kevin rolls*  A 2 and 1 makes a puny 3.
2 ways to play it. How do you want to do it? |

The 3 on its own, please.

There it goes... *ding*  One number closer to the cruise and wave runner! But now someone needs control of the dice again. Next question... The Isle of Wight
Tasmania
Hawaii
What is the modern name for the island formerly known as Van Diemen’s Land?
Kevin: 29 George: 36 Buzzcode: 72 *George buzzes in* George, try again. |

Correct! *applause* George, you now control the dice. You have nothing to lose, as all rolls are still good. So, rolling would be an advantage for you, especially since a 9 can net you column 3. But it's completely up to you, roll 'em or pass 'em? *audience shouts suggestions* |

Roll them.

Good luck, roll them bones! *audience cheers as...George rolls*  Ooh a ten!
George how do you want that ten cleared? |

That gives you column 3! *ding, cheers*   That also means that there are now a bunch of bad rolls! We'll get to those in a moment, right now...I have another question: 1900
1912
1921
In what year did the Titanic sink?
Kevin: 40 George: 49 Buzzcode: 82 *George buzzes in* George again! |

1912.

Post by babytims on Sept 24, 2023 0:55:55 GMT -5
That's right! *applause* George, the rolls are now scarce. A 3, 4, 5, or a 12 means that Kevin remains the champion. Anything other than that means we're still in business. You have the option of rolling, or passing the bones over to Kevin and hope he gets a bad roll. How do you wanna play this, George? *audience shouts suggestions* |

Alrighty then! Good luck, and roll 'em! *audience cheers as...George rolls* |

Swahili is right!
*cheers*
Now George, only 4 numbers left on the board. The good rolls are now 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11. If you think you're lucky enough to roll one of those numbers, you can take the bones and roll 'em, otherwise you can pass control to the champ.
If you roll a bad number, Kevin wins the match.
If he rolls a bad number, we go to a tiebreaker.
What's your decision?
