I'm going to start again on one of two game shows that I am proud to have created. This one is BLOCKERS and it has been played at BIGJON's PC forum, so for those who have seen it and or played it, it's the same rules and the same far-out grooviness.
I need three players, please, por favor.

I'm an accountant from Ronkonkoma, New York. When I'm not doing taxes, I like working out at the gym, reading and writing fan-fiction.

That's great, CHRIS...I see from my card that you come from Montreal in Canada. Is your French any good?

Mais bien sûr ! Oops! Wrong language... I mean, but of course. You have to be bilingual in order to work in an office setting.

I understand, CHRIS. Great having you here as well and I hope you have fun. Before we start, of course, let me tell you the rules of BLOCKERS. The object of our game is to get your colored block in each of the seven rows here by answering questions in the categories that pertain to that row. What you basically do is to give me a category and a letter from the word BLOCKER and whatever they meet is the block that you are trying for. There are two types of questions: One is worth money ,anywhere from $25 to $200, and the other type is what we call a COMMAND BLOCK. Those are special because they involve two questions, the first being worth $50 and the other depends on whatever the command block is. There are three types of COMMAND BLOCKS up there on our board:  GAIN, which, if you get the second question right, will get your an extra block in another row, as well as $50 more. STEAL, which if you get the second question right, will allow you to steal an opponent's block and replace with one of your own, as well as $50 more. and CHANCE, which if you get the second question right, will add whatever the CHANCE JACKPOT is to your score. Now, the CHANCE is special because you have a choice on whether to go for it or not. The reason is that, if you go for the second question and get it wrong, you'll lose the block from the first question. Now, if the block you pick is a money amount, then the question is a toss-up. However, if you pick a COMMAND block, then the question is only for you, unless you give me a wrong answer. Then, it becomes a toss-up to the other remaining two. The person who gets all their colored blocks in each of the seven rows wins the game and gets to keep the money they've accumulated. Also, they will go on to play SUPERBLOCKERS for a chance at $10,000 in cash. (AUDIENCE APPLAUSE) Is there any questions? |

In that case, here is our categories for today. (JEOPARDY HARP SOUND INTRO 1964-1975) We have WORLD CAPITALS, FILE UNDER "C", THE BEATLES, COACHES AND MANAGERS, INITIALS AND ABBREVIATIONS, THE BIBLE, and ANIMALS.  KEVIN, since you signed up first, you get to pick first. Pick me a letter and a category.   |

The Bible, letter B please.

Post by johnnyb on Jun 16, 2014 19:50:11 GMT -5
And behind THE BIBLE and the letter B is...........DOUBLE CHANCE.  Let me tell you what that means, KEVIN.....You have a chance at a question for $100 and, if you want, a chance at a double jackpot worth $1,000. First, here's the question: THE BIBLE: Who was the brother of Cain? |

Post by koopakid17 on Jun 16, 2014 20:09:50 GMT -5
Abel.

Post by johnnyb on Jun 16, 2014 20:38:57 GMT -5
ABEL is CORRECT!!!!
(AUDIENCE APPLAUSE)
Now, you have a choice of either stopping and keeping that block or to go for the next question which, if you get it right, it's worth $1,000. However, if you decide to go for it and get it wrong, then you lose that block on the board and you are out for the next question.
What is your choice?

Alright...here we go.
THE BIBLE:
Who was known as the "announcing angel" because he told Mary about the coming birth of Jesus?

GABRIEL is RIGHT and you just got $1,100 just like that.   KEVIN, you still have control...pick your next category. |
