This episode will start with champion George Cluster playing the Bonus Bucks end game.
I've made a few changes for the next match as well.
George will need two challengers to take him on for the next match.
When you reply to this thread, I'd also appreciate it if you could pm to me a short biography as well as ten buzz codes ranging from 1 to 100.
George you also can submit to me ten new buzz codes for the upcoming match.
I will explain the slight changes to the game once we get underway.
Thank you,
Bill

Frank Caliendo (as Don Pardo) George Cluster… If your first three Bonus Bucks picks all match...     you could win up to $25,000 in cash!    From the Bill Cullen Theatre inside Rockefeller Center, the NBC Television Network is proud to present… Bill McDee's - Three On A Match!  Ladies and Gentlemen… here's Bill McDee!  That's me! Thank you Frank Caliendo and thank you Friends. Welcome in to another episode of Three on a Match here in the prime time hours.

He is back with us with winnings thus far totaling $3,675 in cash, a warm welcome back to George Cluster! (applause & cheers) George welcome back to Three on a Match.

And you enjoy winning money too I am sure! You won the match at the end of yesterday's program which has earned you the right now to play our BONUS BUCKS end game for up to $25,000 in cash! Here's how it will work George.  You will get up to 7 picks from the game board. Like in regular game play, you may only reveal a maximum of three boxes in any given column. The object of the game is to uncover three of the same symbol on the board, one in each column. Each column contains a clover, a 7 and a horseshoe. Each column also has a STRIKE somewhere on the board, and like in baseball, three strikes and you're out of the game. Furthermore, if you do uncover a strike, you are required to make your next pick from a column that does not yet have a strike revealed. If you can match three of the same item before you strike out, or before you run out of your 7 total picks, you will win the cash award attached to the last box you select. The cash awards range from $5,000 all the way up to $12,500. Furthermore, should you achieve Three on a Match in just 3 picks, an instant match, you will be paid DOUBLE the dollar value attached to your winning selection. George, if you have any questions, please speak now. If not, please select a column and a color and good luck to you! |

20 on the Red...  Oh no! Strike One right off the bat. Six picks left, and George this next pick must be taken in either the 30 or 40 point column. Where to next? |

If 40 on the yellow has a 7, you're going to win at least $5,000 George! Is it under 40 on the Yellow?  Yes! (cheering & applause) Very well done George! Let's see what cash card is attached to that winning pick.  Ten-Thousand dollars! The second highest amount up on the board! Way to go George! Three sevens is a nice jackpot win for our champion who now has a cash total of $13,675! (APPLAUSE & CHEERS) We'll take a time out and have two new challenger to take on George, right after these words of interest. |

(cheering & applause) We are back and ready to get underway with a brand new match right now. Very exciting start to this edition of our show with our champion George winning $10,000 in our first Bonus Bucks bonus game! He's going to try to win more and he has two new challengers who are wanting a crack at that Bonus Bucks end game as well! Please give a warm welcome to our newcomers, Chris Chambers and Bryan Law!  Gentlemen I am as pleased as punch to have you here to take on our new champion George in this game. We have a couple of southern gentlemen here playing our game, Chris is a cashier from Arkansas and Bryan is a housekeeper at a local hospital and he hails from Columbus, Mississippi. Bryan is also a huge SEC college football fan and I dare say we have the SEC well represented in this new match. We've made a few changes to the rules of our front game, and I will explain them as we go along.  But we start things off as normal. Hidden behind these three numbered slides are different categories. George, as champion, you will get to select first. Which number is calling to you, 1, 2 or 3? |

Very well and under #1 this time we have the category of...  Insects. Players, we have a total of 5 questions in each category we play. The first question is worth 40 points.  Then the questions increase in value, 40 then 50, 60, 70 and finally 80 points. Only the first player to buzz in gets to answer. A correct answer will bank you those points however, an incorrect answer or if you take too long to answer means those points will be divided among the other two players. You must reach at least 90 points before you can go to the matching board, although I would highly recommend waiting until you have more points to do so. Only after a player scores points with a CORRECT answer will they be given the option to go to the matching board or continue to try to build up their point total. Lastly, we cap off the points at 250 so if you have 190 points and answer an 80 point question, your point total to spend at the matching board would only be 250. Here's the first toss up question in the category INSECTS, for 40 points players... Which insect starts out its life as a caterpillar? (ding)  George you are in first this time and you will have until 7:30pm EST on Thursday, July 25th to post your answer. A correct answer will score you 40 points, an incorrect answer or a missed deadline will mean Chris and Bryan will get 20 points apiece. |

Well done 40 points for you George, not enough to go to the board yet.  For 50 points... Fire, carpenter and red are three types of this pesky insect, usually associated with invading picnics. What insect? (ding)  Chris you are in first. Your answer is due by 7:50am EST on Thursday, July 25th. |

Correct for 50 points. George has 40 points, Chris 50, nothing thus far for Bryan...still not enough to go to the matching board. Time for a 60 point question...  What type of insect is a beetle with red wings and black spots and has a feminine sounding name? (ding)  George, you're in first and have until 8:10pm EST on Thursday, July 25th. |

Correct for 60 points.
George you have 100 points, you could take a shot at the matching board now if you wish but you'd only get to pick 3 boxes maximum.
With that in mind, do you want to go to the board or try for more points?
