Card Sharks Game
« on: July 01, 2012, 02:39:12 AM »
Just like the classics with Jim, Bob and Bill, with a twist: Since there's no Money Cards to get to, and with the intention of formatting this like a game in this forum, I'll change some of the rules a bit.  Process goes like this:

  • I'll pose the survey question, then ask whoever wants to play how many people they think responded to it in a certain way.
  • Once they give their answer, I'll ask another person if they think the answer is higher or lower than the actual number.
  • Whoever's closest to the highest number goes to the cards.  Each player will have their own row of five cards; whoever makes it across the row first wins.  No freezing here.  (If the first person makes an incorrect guess, play passes to the other person.  If they make an incorrect guess as well, two new people play.)
  • Once we reach a winner, the loser gets to play first in the next round against a new player.

I hope this makes sense.  If not, it will as we go along.  Remember: If you're a winner, you cannot play more than one round in a row.

Alright, with that, let's get to the cards!

[1978-81 music plays as the cards are revealed]

Alright, our dealers have cut the decks and the first question is up for grabs!  Here we go:

We surveyed 100 bachelors: "If you proposed marriage to the girl of your dreams, and she said she'd accept only if she could continue dating other men, would you still marry her?"  How many bachelors said they would?

Who wants to take a guess?  Anyone can be our first player!

I would say that the number is going to be moderately low so I'd say the number would be 45.
And all this could be yours if... The Price is Right

45.

[45][  ][  ]

Alright, now, who wants to take a guess?  Is the actual number higher or lower than 45?

It's got to be a little more lower, because many guys would feel really bummed out if they discovered that their girls were dating other guys. (think: girls cheating on their boys)

Alright, you say it's lower; good reasoning behind that by the way!

[45][  ][ v]

The actual number of bachelors who said they would still marry the girl of their dreams, even if they still wanted to continue seeing other men, is:

[45][07][ v]

...7!  It was lower, much lower!  And with that, whowouldeverhurtawhammy, you have control of the cards, and the first card is...



...an ACE!  Well, this is interesting...!  I'd ask if you wanted to change that card, but something tells me you're not going to; what's your decision?

...alright, I'm changing the rules and giving them a bit of a much-needed facelift.  We'll play one round exactly like the series; four survey questions to the same two people; whoever wins is the champion (and gets to play another game later) and whoever loses plays again with another person.  Also, since there are four questions, you can now freeze.

whowouldeverhurtawhammy freezes on the 7 with two cards to go, and this next question is for him.

We surveyed 100 brides-to-be: Do you and your fiance plan to use some form of birth control?  How many brides-to-be said they do plan to use birth control?

If her and I were to use any birth control, it would really depend on several uncertain factors.
I would have to say...44.

44, out of 100, say they plan to use birth control.

[  ][  ][44]

Priceboi1983, what do you think?  Is the actual number higher or lower than 43?

I would say the number would be a little higher than 44 as I believe they'd want to get secure in their marriage first and be able to afford to have children.
And all this could be yours if... The Price is Right

Interesting, so you say it's higher.

[^ ][  ][44]

I actually agree with you there, especially in this day and age, but let's see.  The actual number of brides-to-be who said they do plan on using birth control is:

[^ ][85][44]

...85!  Much, much higher, very good!  Now you get a crack at the cards, Priceboi, and your first card is...



...a King!  Very good card you have there, would you like to play it or change it?
