[bighornbattle]

*spins*

[smashwhammy]

call yer letter for 100 bucks

[bighornbattle]

C please.

[smashwhammy]

no C, and I'm kinda sleepy, so let's pick this up in the morning hours...ok, larsonfan?

[smashwhammy]

probably should say i'm up and ready for larson's next turn... please hit a dollar amount this time and cash in

[larsonfan1]

*spins* (6) Come on $350!

[smashwhammy]

well, will you do with a quarter less?

[larsonfan1]

That'll do! I'll pick an M!

[smashwhammy]

and your finally on the board!


you can guess this TITLE, spin again, or buy the first vowel all game

[larsonfan1]

I will spin again! (7)

[smashwhammy]

250, a good amount given the low ceiling this round

[larsonfan1]

I hope there's a K.

[smashwhammy]

yes there is!



(BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP)

and THAT series of beeps isn't someone hitting their thumb with a hammer, but an indicator that we only have vowels left

with $575 in front of you, what do you do?

[larsonfan1]

I'll solve...

KAMEN
RIDER

[smashwhammy]

the following may be offensive to members of Shocker:


meanwhile over here, you're right!

here's the deal, i was hooked on (and was binging) the original 70s series while making the puzzles for this game

With that, we'll let you keep that 575 and do a little relevant plug before going to round 2

SUPER SENTAI (BEFORE THE AMERICANIZED RANGERS), ULTRAMAN BY THE BOATLOAD, AND KAMEN RIDER...INCLUDING THIS

ALL AVAILABLE FOR FREE, LEGALLY, AND SUBTITLED THANKS TO SHOUT FACTORY'S TOKUSHOUTSU COLLECTION!

AND WHEN I MEAN "ULTRAMAN BY THE BOATLOAD"...I MEAN IT

(END "COMMERCIAL" BREAK)

WELL, we're finally here at the start of round two (THANKS HELENE), i'll show the wheel and the standings in one screenshot as i mention we now go to where the top is 500... a stark difference to modern day Wheel where 500 is the bottom

OH, and since we didn't see any vowels bought last round, the producers made me announce that we have a BUY A VOWEL wedge... land on it, and you gotta buy, even though you wanted to EARN money.

Word of caution: Land on this with less than 250, and I'll count it as a Lose a Turn... but if all the vowel's been bought that's in the puzzle, i'll just call for a respin

with all that, we're looking for a PLACE (and this time, it IS in America)

(EDIT, GREAT.... 503 ERRORS AT THE TIME OF POSTING)

[smashwhammy]

if it's not one thing delaying the game, it's another... let me know when the images decide to show up

[smashwhammy]

ok, images loaded up, so Larson can go (even if he hadn't solved the first puzzle, this IS the 1974 pilot we're doing, so the one who got the last puzzle goes first)

[larsonfan1]

Come on big money! *spins* (7)

[smashwhammy]

our first spin of round two is $250, and we have a fresh selection of letters

[larsonfan1]

R!

[smashwhammy]

I did a dumb...hope no one saw that slip i made... doesn't affect the score (as we know it) as we have 1 R anyway

[smashwhammy]

actually, should we toss this puzzle since i accidentally showed the wrong spot in a post, even if it was for a brief moment before i realized?

[larsonfan1]

It's up to you I didn't see the error that was made

[smashwhammy]

alright, we'll continue.. options are open
