I apologize, but my computer has either a bad power supply unit or a bad motherboard. Either way, my computer is out of order, and I cannot access my files for Top Card at this time. So, this game is paused. As a token of apology, every day my computer is broken, $1000 will be added to the grand slam jackpot. OH, f***IN' HELL! I HOPE IT WORKS BETTER WHEN YOU GET IT BACK CAUSE I DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOU ON NGC!  |

I'll still be around NGC, but to make things fair, I don't want to change cards in the middle of a round.

Good luck Joe. As I'll be vacationing I won't be back until August 18th. Super Password is on hold until then. Here's hoping your technical issues are all ironed out by then my friend!

My friend is still working on it. She seems to think it may be the motherboard.
Anyway, the grand slam jackpot is now at
$44,500

So far, the jackpot is at a huge

..........and we ARE BACK! After a long @$$ hiatus, we shall continue where we stopped. This what the board and scores looked like... Darion picked the category: Wanted by the FBI. With that in mind, let's play! According to its motto, the FBI's initials stand for "fidelity, bravery" & what "i" word? (BUZZCODE:40) Raymond: Pass Darion: 15 (DING!) Me: Darion, once again. Darion: integrity (applause) Me: Indeed it is integrity. Let's look at your card, Darion, without delay:  It's the 3 of Spades. You have until 11:59:59 PM EDT to decide to keep it, or exchange it for the top card. |

Due to a situation beyond Darion's control, the game is once again paused. $1000 per day jackpot increase is back in effect, meaning the jackpot stands as of today at $87,500.

I was going to take the top card due to the fact that I would not want that card there.

Leslie, if I were a mind reader, he's looking for a 7. What can you give him? Leslie: Thank God you're not reading my mind (raises eyebrows quickly, few scattered laughs)  Me: Not the seven you're looking for, but the board is still yours. Select the next category, please. |

In 1973 she helped found, & also served as first president of, the Women's Tennis Association. Name this "King". BUZZCODE: 43 Raymond: PASS Darion: 73 (DING!) Me: Darion? Darion: Billie Jean King (APPLAUSE) Me: Correct again! I love the fact that you stayed even though things weren't anyone's fault. I wonder if the next card is an ace or a deuce.  A seven? YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!!! (Audience laughter) I guess they can be. Your choice; keep it or exchange it with the top card. |

Me: The seven is gone; what do you have instead?   (audience groans) Me: You're now at 15. Time for you to select another category, please. |

Everyone's keisters are parked on their couches or chairs as our players answer this question. Which stadium has been the home of football's Patriots as well as baseball's Red Sox? BUZZCODE:35 DARION: 57 RAYMOND: 22 (DING!) Me: Raymond beats Darion to the plunger! Go ahead, Raymond. Raymond: Fenway Park (applause) Me: Did you prevent Darion from making a home run? Let's see your first card.  It's the five of diamonds. Would you like to keep it, or exchange it for the top card? |

Since I have not heard from Raymond, I will go ahead and end the round here. This means our champion, John wins round one! (applause, theme music plays) John, you will sit out round two and rejoin us for the championship round.
We shall continue with round two with Raymond and Darion after these messages.

Since I have not heard from Raymond in the past 48 hours, I will declare Darion the winner of round 2. Darion and John will play the championship round once I get the answers and buzzcodes from John.

Welcome back. For those of you who missed it, Darion made a miraculous comeback in the second round. Sadly, that was pre-empted by some jerk named Ben Gozzie and some e-mails. I don't know what the hell that was all about, but we are now in the Championship Round with Darion and John.
Good lick, er I mean luck. (audience laughs) Sorry, I was enjoying a cherry lollipop.
Anyhow, this is an educated guess. I want you two to predict the sum of the bottom 5 cards of Leslie's deck. Face cards are worth 10, and aces are 1 in this case. Go ahead, gentlemen, and lock in your answers.
Darion: 25
John: 25
(Audience laughs and cheers)
Me: (Aside) Oh, <BLEEP!>
Ahem, Since you two tied, I need for you both (by PM) to predict the sum of the bottom SEVEN cards of Leslie's deck.

Darion: 30 John: 27 Me: Okay you have locked in, and these answers cannot be changed. Leslie, please deal the cards. Leslie: We'll see who's the seven card stud, and who's the seven card dud.... (scattered laughter)        Me: 7 + 10 = 17; plus 2 makes it 19. 19 and 6 are 25. 25 and 8 are 33; one more is 34, and another ten is 44! Darion wins the tossup! If deuces were wild, we'd have a flush in that hand. Congratulations, Darion. You get to choose from these categories:

Astern, abaft, & aft all refer to what part of a ship? BUZZCODE: 92 John:35 (DING!) Darion: 23 John for the ring-in! John: The stern. Me: We will accept that (applause). It's at the rear of the ship. Will this card be smooth sailing for our champ? 
![]() (Wild applause) It's an ace! I still have to ask, do you want to keep it or take the top card? |

(Applause) The ace is yours; if you can find a ten or face card, you will then win the game. Where do we go next?
