Don't worry, I'm on the panel, and Erin will host the show. We will need five more panelists and two players. The show will start when the cast has been filled.
If you sign up, you must identify whether you want to be a contestant or panelist. Hopefully, we can make a series out of this. Good luck!

Now we need just two more panelists to join, as well as two players.
And BTW, the show will play out like a hybrid of Match Game 7x and PM, with two sets of questions (and a third for tiebreakers), and a Star Wheel for the Head-to-Head Match. Let's get some more in!

5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
(MG 7x Intro)
RICH FIELDS: Get ready to match the stars! Michael Koontz, Kevin Kolsen, Jonathan Darrall, johnnyb, Bill Skinner and ArcticThunder! As we play the star-studded, big-money Match Game 2015! (MG 7x Theme) And now, here's the star of Match Game 2015, Erin Harris!
ERIN HARRIS: Thank you, Rich Fields, and welcome to Match Game 2015! We have our star panel ready to go, and we also have two players who will try to outwit them. Please welcome mringgenberg and GameShowNetwork! (applause) Now, you know how the game works. And to those who don't remember, I'll tell you how we play the Match Game. I will read a question to the panel, which may contain a missing word or words, and then our contestants must give an answer that they think will match what the panelists said. Obviously, the objective is to match more panelists than your opponent, and whoever does that will then play for a chance to win up to $10,000 in cash! Now that you're up to speed, let's play our first round! mringgenberg, since you signed up first, you will get the first question, and it goes like this:
"Dumb Donald was so dumb..."
AUDIENCE: How dumb was he?
ERIN: Wow, that question never gets old, does it? (laughter and applause) Anyway, he was so dumb "...that whenever he saw advertisements for the World Series, he thought they meant (blank)."
(MG 7x Think Cue #1)
(The panelists must PM us their responses; and the contestants will give their responses in this thread.)

Traveling
|
|
|
Post by Bill Skinner on Jun 25, 2015 12:55:15 GMT -5
ERIN: Traveling...that is a nice answer, don't you think? (applause) Now we go to our panel for their answers. You get one point for each match from the panel. First up is Michael Koontz (larsonfan1).
ding!
ERIN: I believe it is the same as traveling, so we'll give it to you. Flying, driving, whatever. Now we move on to Kevin Kolsen (koopakid17).
He had such a way with words...not a good way by any means. He took it to mean serial instead so he was thinking... [COMIC BOOKS]
buzz!
ERIN: Well, that was a good answer, but no match. Next up is Jonathan Darrall (jmdarrall).
Dumb Donald thought the Series was...(CARD) A NEW TV SHOW.
buzz!
ERIN: I like that answer too, because you know new TV shows become series. What do you say, johnnyb?
buzz!
ERIN: Ah, the good old globe! Moving on to Bill Skinner!
You know, I'm a big baseball fan, but especially of the New York Mets. I can tell you tales of when they won the Fall Classic back when I was ten years old, but that can wait after the show. As for my answer, I could never figure out why they call it the World Series, because it's never been played anywhere outside North America, so I said... (flips card)
INTERNATIONAL BASEBALL TOURNAMENT
buzz!
ERIN: The international baseball tournament, another good answer! Any reasoning behind that?
Because it would involve teams from the U.S., Canada, Japan, China, Korea--
ERIN: Alright, we get it! Last chance for traveling, and for that, we go to ArcticThunder!
Normally, I'd question Dumb Donald's logic to nearly everything, but I can actually see why he'd be confused. Because the World Series occurs in the United States, Donald naturally concluded that the advertisement was an error and that they really meant to promote it as... [THE WORLD SEASONS]
buzz!
ERIN: Those were some nice answers, all of them. Well mringgenberg, you get 1 point because you matched Mr. Koontz. Now GameShowNetwork, here is your question:
"Kanye West has done it again! This time, during the last awards show whose name we should not mention, he demanded that they give his wife Kim Kardashian an award for Best (Blank)."

Hair

Post by Bill Skinner on Jun 29, 2015 11:51:03 GMT -5
(scattered applause)
ERIN: Well, that could be a good answer. Again, we return to our panel for their responses. Michael?
She got the award for having the best ... [BOOTY]
buzz!
ERIN: Another great answer, but that's not what we're looking for. What do you say, Kevin?
Is there anything he won't interrupt? He knew Kim was the best at everything. That's why he thought she should have won best: [BODY]
buzz!
ERIN: I like that answer too! Still, it's no match either. We're looking for hair, and Jonathan says?
Everyone knows she's got a great...(CARD) BOOTY...(CARD)...GLUTEUS MAXIMUS...(CARD)...BA-DONK-A-DONK...whatever you want to call it.
buzz!
ERIN: So far, two people said her booty. Apparently, Kim is bootylicious, as Beyoncé would say. johnnyb, we come to you. (crickets) johnnyb? Nevermind, he didn't get his answer in time, so we'll have to buzz him.
buzz!
ERIN: Now it's up to Bill.
You know, I love all the Kardashian sisters, including Khloe and Kourtney. But since Kim outshines them both, I think Kanye would say that she should win an award for best...(flips card)
LOOKS
buzz!
ERIN: Of course, because beauty and good looks come with being a Kardashian. Last chance for hair, and let's see if ArcticThunder can come up with that.
There's really only one answer that I'd expect Kanye to actually say... *shows card* [HUSBAND]
buzz!
ERIN: Well, you didn't match any of our panelists, so at the end of Round 1, you trail mringgenberg 1-0. But we'll have two new answers in our second round, which is a perfect opportunity to get more matches. (Match Game 7x Theme) We'll be back after this.

ERIN: Welcome back to Match Game 2015, where it's 1-0 in favor of mringgenberg! And now, we'll play our second round. Once again, the first question goes to mringgenberg. Michael will sit this one out, but the other panelists must respond. The question is:
"A friend of mine went to a comedy show last night, and this is what she told me: 'That comedian was one of the strangest performers I've ever seen! Instead of standup, he does an act that he calls (blank) comedy.'"

Sit Down
|
|
|
Post by Bill Skinner on Jun 30, 2015 10:52:56 GMT -5
ERIN: I like that answer, sit-down comedy. Now let's go to the panel for their answers. We'll start with Kevin.
Pretty much the opposite and what people are doing when they witness it: [SIT DOWN]
ding!
ERIN: That's a match, so it's 2-0. Jonathan?
It's so boring that he calls it...(CARD) LIE-DOWN COMEDY
buzz!
ERIN: Lie-down comedy, interesting. johnnyb?
He used to be a secret service agent.......so it was STAND-DOWN
buzz!
ERIN: Stand-down comedy, another interesting answer. Bill?
It is so obvious, I mean, what else could it be? (flips card)
SIT DOWN
ding!
ERIN: And we have another match! 3-0, and now ArcticThunder will show us his answer.
The guy's getting paid to do stand-up comedy. So he naturally goes by its more romantic, or rather unromantic, definition. [DITCH AFTER THE] [FIRST SHOW] [COMEDY]
buzz!
ERIN: And with that, it's 3-0 in favor of mringgenberg. So GameShowNetwork, this means that you must match three panelists to tie, and four to win. We all have faith in you. Everyone will play the next question, which is:
"Did you hear about Donald Trump running for President? Well, here's the latest news: His campaign is going to be a first, because he couldn't find anybody to be his running mate, so instead, it will be (blank)."

Post by Bill Skinner on Jul 1, 2015 14:34:27 GMT -5
ERIN: And here's the big moment, when the panelists decide whether you're still in it. Michael, what do you say?
I always knew this day would come... [HIS MONEY]
buzz!
ERIN: Well, this isn't promising for you, but I like that answer, having his own money as his running mate. Kevin?
He's got a running mate, all right: [HIS "LITTLE DONALD"]
ding!
ERIN: Apparently, it is the same as himself, so there you go. Jonathan?
Well, since most of his dealings are governed by it, anyway...(CARD) HIS MONEY
buzz!
ERIN: Another money answer. Two more misses and mringgenberg is the champion. johnnyb?
Well, he wanted someone to be part of he hip culture....whatever that is, so his running mate is KAYNE WEST.
buzz!
ERIN: The score is 3-1, so you must match the remaining two to force a tiebreaker. Bill?
Well, I figured it'd only be a matter of time before we actually start cloning humans for real, if it hasn't happened already. And with that being said... (flips card)
HIMSELF
ding!
ERIN: It's now 3-2, and one more match will force a tiebreaker. Otherwise, mringgenberg will win. What is your answer, ArcticThunder?
He doesn't need to waste time and/or money to find a running mate when he can do the entire campaign... [HIMSELF]
ding!
ERIN: And we have a tie at 3-3! So that means we'll play the tiebreaker round, and we will start fresh with the scores reset to zero. All of the panelists will participate, and the contestant who matches more panelists will win the game and play for $10,000! mringgenberg, you will play the first tiebreaker question. It reads like this:
"It seems to me that the newest fast-food restaurant has some strange choices. In fact, when I tried to order a bucket of fried chicken, they said they didn't have any, and so they served me some fried (blank)."

Duck

|
|
Post by Bill Skinner on Jul 5, 2015 13:05:34 GMT -5
ERIN: Fried duck, that's a good answer. I don't think I've ever had that before. Let's see if the panelists agree with you. Michael?
I ate there once, I never went back because they gave me.. (Flips Card) [FRIED BANANAS]
buzz!
ERIN: Wow, I'd never eat fried bananas either. Kevin?
Did you know you can deep fry anything? Skip the buns because they serve buckets of deep-fried... [COWS]
buzz!
ERIN: Fried cows! I guess they were planning revenge on Chick-Fil-A for all those EAT MOR CHIKIN ads, which, by the way, happen to be among my favorites. Moving on to Jonathan.
Gotta take a page from "Anchorman 2" here...(CARD) BAT!
buzz!
ERIN: Another good answer, a fried bat. I wonder if it tastes like chicken, as they say? So far, mringgenberg, you haven't matched any of the panelists. And we're going to johnnyb for his answer.
I always have heard it as great over rice with some soy sauce. RAT.
buzz!
ERIN: Just the thought of a fried rat makes me sick to my stomach. Bill?
I hate to disappoint you, Erin, and especially you, mringgenberg, but I also said the same thing that he said... (points to johnnyb, then flips card)
RAT
buzz!
ERIN: Two rats in a row from the panel. Finally, it's up to ArcticThunder to provide a match. What do you have there?
What a lawsuit this'll be... [SPATULAS]
buzz!
ERIN: So nobody has matched mringgenberg in the tiebreaker round, which means that GameShowNetwork gets a break here. All you need is one match to the next question, and you are the winner! Here is the question:
"Christine Fields, Rich's wife, complained that she couldn't sleep at all last night, because all night long, Rich kept yelling (blank)."
(MG 7x Think Cue #2)

Post by GameShowNetwork on Jul 5, 2015 13:08:19 GMT -5
He kept his wife awake by constantly yelling "Come on down!"
|
|
|
Post by Bill Skinner on Jul 6, 2015 12:43:21 GMT -5
ERIN: Come on down, one of the greatest game-show lines of all time. Now, before we go to the panel, I have an idea: Let's bring our announcer himself, Rich Fields, on stage to say it again. Now we know you're not doing The Price is Right anymore, but we'd like to hear you one more time, for old time's sake.
RICH: Sure, I'd love to. Erin Harris, come on down! (cheers and applause)
ERIN: And there you go! Mr. Rich Fields, everybody! Now GameShowNetwork, you need just one match in order to win. What is your answer, Michael?
The only logical answer... [COME ON DOWN!]
(multiple ding!s)
ERIN: That's a match, and GameShowNetwork, you win! Just for fun, let's see what the rest of the panel said.
What else? [COME ON DOWN!]
I could go many directions with this, but I'll just say...(CARD) "COME ON DOWN!"
(Bill's card) COME ON DOWN
ERIN: They all said Come on Down as well, but it does not matter because you had already matched the first. mringgenberg, I'm so sorry that you didn't win, but you played a good game, and I'm sure we will see you again. Meanwhile, GameShowNetwork will try to win $10,000 on the other side of this break! (MG 7x Theme)

Post by Bill Skinner on Jul 6, 2015 12:56:51 GMT -5
ERIN: Welcome back to Match Game 2015, where GameShowNetwork will now try to win some cash, up to $10,000, in fact. First up is the Super Match. Before the show, we asked the studio audience to give their best answer to this question:
"Cleveland (blank)"
ding!
Now the Super Match rules are the same, but we've changed the payout structure a bit, as you can see. If you match the most popular answer, you will get $1,000.
ding!
The second-most popular answer is worth $500...
ding!
...and the third-most popular answer is worth $250.
ding!
And to start it off, you will ask three of our panelists to provide their own answers. Just tell me which three you want to poll, and then we'll ask them for their responses.
