Posts in HYO don't count toward the post count displayed by the forum software.

No, but no posts having been made outside of this section means that you're ineligible. Meaning any first four passes should be ignored.

Please read the Rules regarding eligibility please!

People are tired of the f**kery and drama, but if we'd actually talk to each other sometimes instead of a whole bunch of private conversations with other people, it'd go a long way to perhaps fixing the problems most seem to see in the site.

On second thought, maybe I should rescind Clara26's First Four pass if she had only made one post outside this section. No worries, though, because I still have the nine players I need to get the show going.

Also, the deadline to sign up will be extended to tomorrow evening, as I have a doctor's appointment in the morning. Show will start once I return from said appointment. Let's get some more players in, please!

I'm back, and ready to set this time machine back to '98. Here we go...

(Walking 1976)

GEORGE GRAY: Here it comes! From the famous Bob Barker Studio in Hollywood, it's The Price is Right!

wpghi5, come on down!
Plinkoman, come on down!
JayC, come on down!
And Hag, come on down!

You are the first four contestants on The Price is Right!




(TPIR Theme 1972)

And now, here's your host, Teddy!

(enters from Door #2, and takes microphone from Rachel)

Hello, welcome to the show! Rachel Reynolds is here, everybody! And right over there, say hi to my friend George Gray!

GEORGE: Good morning, Teddy, and good morning, Rachel. It's going to be a great day. Hi, Mama Mai!

I am so glad you tuned in today because we're going back in time to 1998, and we're going to repeat a lineup that was used on a show from that year. So hold on, it's going to be a fun ride. Let's get it started with the first prize up for bids today on The Price is Right!



GEORGE: Well, here's something we never had back in 1998: It's a male model on a trampoline! (Door #2 opens with James bouncing around on it) (lite-rock variant of Fortune Hunter cue) (applause) Have fun bouncing up and down on this 14-foot SkyBound Stratos trampoline, which has a full safety net enclosure system.

James O'Halloran, everybody! There he is!

JAMES: Hey, Teddy! Good morning, everybody!

The rules are the same as they were back in '98: If you're the one who is nearest to the actual retail price without going over, we will give it to you.



BIDDING ORDER: wpghi5, Plinkoman, JayC, Hag

wpghi5, you have the honor of bidding first.

The bids are $1,333 from wpghi5...

DING!

...$788 from Plinkoman...

DING!

...$1,000 from JayC...

DING!

...and $1,300 from Hag.

DING!



And the actual retail price of that trampoline is: $800. Plinkoman, you win!

DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING!

(Walking 1976)

(cheers and applause)

Plinkoman, I'm so glad to have you up on stage with me that I have a prize you will love. George, what is it?



GEORGE: It's a new SUV! (Rachel models it behind Door #3) (Car Slide) (cheers and applause) It's the 2020 Mazda CX-5 Sport, featuring a 2.5-liter engine, 6-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. This is the Mazda CX-5, a prize worth $26,020!



In order to win that Mazda, you just need to spell out the word car in our first game, called Spelling Bee! There are 11 C's, 11 A's and 6 R's. All it takes is one of each to win. However, if you're lucky enough to get one of the two cards that say CAR, you win automatically. Now, to start the game, I will let you have two cards for free. Which two do you want?

(two numbers from 1 to 30, please)

So 29 and 13 are yours. Now, I will give you a chance to earn three cards, along with these three small prizes, where James is standing by. What are they, George?





(1994 SP Cue)

GEORGE: Well, here we go. First up, listen to the many sounds of nature with this white sound machine. Then, with the help of your smartphone, you can get your car in and out with this smart garage opener. And finally, get the dust out of very small crevices with this handheld vacuum cleaner.



In order to earn a card, you just have to be within $10 of each prize. To speed the game up, give me all three guesses.

And now that your three guesses have been made, let's start with the sound machine. You said it was $32; how much is it?



BUZZ!

Oh, it was only $20, so you don't get a card. Next, you said the garage door opener was $52; what's the price of that?



DING!

$50, so you get one more card. Let's make it two more with the vacuum. You said it was $25, and it is...



BUZZ!

...$36, and you've ended up with just one pick, but it may be enough for you to win. What's your number?

(again, from 1 to 30)
