No, it's not time, however it does begin with a T.
(ding)
The clue is: Duration. Do you know it now for 2 spins?

No, it's not tone either. Let's reveal the second letter for Kevin please.
(ding)
It's an E. So, it's T - E - something - something. Again, the clue is: Duration.
Last chance for one more spin Kevin, can you solve it now?

Term is right for another spin!
(ding ding ding ding) (audience begins continuous applause as theme begins to play)
(ding)
So heading into the first round, it's Nels with 5 spins and Kevin with 4. Will that extra spin be the difference for Nels? The only way to find that out is to have these two gentlemen start pressing their luck on our big board!
(our podium begins to rotate towards the board)
It'll be hopefully lots of big bucks and no sight of Whammies when Press Your Luck returns right after these messages!

(fade in with theme and applause)
Welcome back to the New Press Your Luck!
As you can see from our spinning board here, we have lots of cash up for the taking in the first round, with $1,500 being the highest single amount up there. We have 54 possible values on our board that are randomly rotated with 18 of them displayed at any one time. 43 of those spaces have a cash amount tied to them, so you have about an 80% chance of landing on cash with each stop you make on the board. Be careful though, there are 6 Whammies there somewhere as well, so you have a 1 in 9 or 11% chance of stopping on one of those guys.
I should point out as well that the leader after this first round gets a slight advantage prior to the second round. Instead of one free spin each going into the crossword puzzle mini-game, the leader will start with 3 free spins while the runner-up gets only 2 freebies.
Kevin, you had the fewer number of spins, so you will start us off please sir. Talk to that board, tell it no whammies and when you're ready to stop it, say STOP x where x is a value between 3 and 15 inclusive which will be the number of seconds that elapses before the board stops.
Good luck to you Kevin! Let's find you some big bucks!

That's a nice start, four hundred dollars for you sir and three spins remaining if you want them.
You can press your luck or pass those spins to Nels. What do you say Kevin?

(boioioioioing)
Oh my, Kevin, only 6 of them up there but you managed to find one of them that time! I suppose if you're going to get one, early on is a good time for it. I should point out however that one thing that hasn't changed about the New Press Your Luck is that your game still immediately ends if you accumulate a total of 4 Whammies, so keep that in mind.
You still have a couple of spins, so what would you like to do now Kevin, press or pass?

Alright, well you've recovered half of what you had a moment ago at least.
You have a couple hundred bucks and one spin to account for. Play or pass Kevin?

Oh nice, just missed another Whammy there and stopped at one fifty!
Well, it could've been better, but could've been worse too Kevin. It's too bad you weren't able to land on any of the squares that would give you additional spins to extend your turn. You got that Whammy out of the way, so let's hope you've seen the last of them!
Three hundred fifty dollars for Kevin in the first round. That's what you have to beat to take the lead Nels!
You have five spins to play with! Good luck sir!

Stop at four hundred! Nels, you've started the same way as Kevin did! Let's hope your second spin, if you take it, isn't like his was!
You have a fifty dollar lead and four spins at your disposal Nels. Press your luck or pass your spins?

Stop at a thousand and a spin! You've picked up seventeen fifty on those last two spins alone!
Nels, you lead now by eighteen hundred dollars! You still have three spins to account for. Press or pass sir?

Alright, Nels has decided to pass those spins to you Kevin. He may regret that if you can avoid the Whammy with these spins that you must take.
Here we go, good luck!

Stop on one buck!
Well, you did catch up a little bit anyway! (audience chuckles)
The way to look at that is it's better than a Whammy and who knows, you may end up winning the game by one dollar thanks to that particular spin! We'll see if it plays out that way or not later, but now, your second of three passed spins awaits.

Stop on a thousand and a spin! Well that narrows the gap significantly!
Nels now leads by only $799. You have one more spin you must take Kevin and then an earned spin that you'll need to decide what to do with!
Final passed spin coming up! Good luck!

Stop at seven fifty! Nicely done Kevin!
You've basically evened the match up, you only trail by forty-nine bucks now. You do have an earned spin to consider though. Do you stay on offense, risking a Whammy and try to take the lead or play defense and pass that spin to Nels, hoping that perhaps maybe he finds one of those cash gobblers.
What do you say Kevin?
