RC's Price is Right - Episode 4

[Cyclone]

I was going to say "priceless".  Would have been a good time for that joke, in hindsight.

question here i got a message sayin i was one of the first four contestants but i am seeing that i am not in contestants row

It was sent to wpghi5, myself, 03F5man, and Canadian-TPIRfan.  Clearly 123123123 should have got that instead.

I just noticed it's my bid; those $1 and $3 bids threw me off.  I will bid $2...no, not really.  Let's go $1,111 so it's not so easy for the final bidder.

Cyclone

[Canadian-TPIRfan]

$1,150... and I was secretly hoping that Cyclone would actually bid $5

Yes, I mistakenly sent the message to you instead of 123123123, my sincere apologies.

Don't you mean lowest bid?

Yes.

I have also been informed that the Rose Bowl will be between the Stanford Cardinal and the Wisconsin Badgers, an error to the previous report. As ticket prices have not changed, the Contestant's Row round will carry out unaffected. Post in a moment.

[RCPlanes59]

And the actual retail price is...

$1,150

Canadian-TPIRfan, you're going to play the first pricing game!

Now Canadian-TPIRfan, do you remember what we did before the show? We had a guessing game to determine what the first pricing game would be, and it just happened to be that you won! Yes, you picked the right game! And I'm so glad that it's you to get this news! Jeff, tell him!

It's a new CADILLAC!

(Match Game/Hollywood Squares Hour)
The 2013 Cadillac CTS Coupe! Comes with standard equipment, performance rear wheel drive with Bose audio surround sound, and a power sunroof!

It should be no surprise to you, then, that we are playing 3 Strikes.



First things first, I can tell you that there are five numbers in the price of this car, and they are, in some order:
1
4
5
7
9
There are, of course, also three strikes in the bag. If you pick three strikes, you will lose the game. If, on the other hand, you draw a number, and I hope you will at some point draw all five, then you will have to determine where the number you drew is in the actual retail price of that Cadillac. If you can fill in all five numbers correctly, you win the game. Sound good? Great! Go ahead and draw that first number.


Canadian-TPIRfan, please give me a number 1-8, a number 1-7, and a number 1-6. I will put the lists of numbers, with three strikes, into random.org's list generator and use the number you selected as your draw. The 1-7 and 1-6 range are for if and when you draw strikes.

[Cyclone]

Wait, he bid $1,150 and the ARP was $1,150...I think you forgot something...

I'll withhold beaning him this time for that reason.

Cyclone

[Canadian-TPIRfan]

1-8 range: 3
1-7 range: 5
1-6 range: 2

(and to reinforce Cyclone, do I also get the $500 bonus for my $1,150 bid?)

[RCPlanes59]

sigh... I'm an idiot.



Three major blunders and we haven't even started the first bloody pricing game...

EDIT: So S&P doesn't get on my ass, take your $500.

[RCPlanes59]

And Canadian-TPIRfan has drawn...

1

Where in the price of that car does that 1 belong?

[Canadian-TPIRfan]

I'm going to say the 5th number is 1.

[03F5man]

Canadian-TPIRfan can I get one of those rose bowl tickets im a HUGE badgers fan

[RCPlanes59]

He says the fifth number is 1...

NO

Ouch, bummer. Draw another chip.

4

The 4. Where does it belong?

[Cyclone]

So wait, he actually wasn't right?  Hey buddy, you owe me $250 since I opted not to bean you. #NotReally

Cyclone

[Canadian-TPIRfan]

I'm saying 4 is the 1st number

(and yes 03F5man, you can come to the Rose Bowl with me, and as a peace offering to Cyclone, he gets to come too )

[RCPlanes59]

First number?



Yes! One number down, four to go. Draw another chip.

X

*bzz* Oh no! A strike! That's okay, we're going to put that away, and you still have two strikes left. Let's see a number!

X

*bzz* Uh oh, this game just became dangerous. One more strike and this game is over before it started.


Canadian-TPIRfan, please give me another number 1-5, 1-4, 1-3, and 1-2.

[Canadian-TPIRfan]

1-5: 4
1-4: 3
1-3: 3
1-2: 2
