Title: A Very Unique Half Hour Price is Right: Episode 2
Post by: UniquePerspective on June 18, 2010, 03:56:46 PM
...oh....hi. You may be wondering where I've been the past 16 months or so in terms of HYO. Well...Announcer Dude had to deal with a major Dude Health Concern, I had to fire Jeff and hire Jim as my new sign maker, and I need to get a new microphone.

Anyway. Welcome to the second ever episode of my Host Your Own Series. This will be a traditional half hour formats, 3 pricing games, top two overall winners will go to the showcases. Das Rules:

1. You will have a 24 hour time limit on all deadlines. This includes bids, guesses on pricing games, etc. I will let you know when you first enter the game through PM. Otherwise, you are responsible for keeping track of where you are in the game. If I personally am late on the 24 hour rule, you have the grace period until I post that time is up.
2. Audience advice is suggested and encouraged, except for the IUFB's.
3. If for whatever reason you need to leave the computer for a long period of time, PM me and we'll discuss what to do based on your current place in the game.
4. To sign up, simply say below that you wish to play. Remember, because of half hour, only six contestants will get to play. I will take sign ups until Saturday, June 19th at 4 PM EST, or 10 people signing up, whichever comes first. Selection is entirely random.

That being said, sign up and have some fun.

(Announcer Dude? I thought I was the only one with a random, unnamed announcer! :lol: )

Larryboy goes $1,235 and cu goes with a dollar.

Vadernader: $1,234 Kev347:$1,700 larryboy389:$1,235 cu2010:$1

And the actual retail price of that loveseat is... $1,220 and cu does it with that one dollar bid! cu, you're going to come up here to the turn table to play today's first pricing game. Hello cu, and what can he win Announcer Dude?

It's a new LCD TV! From Samsung, this 55 inch LCD HDTV provides crystal clear images in high definition, using the latest in both LCD and HD technology.

S              e
    Play

/2\ /0\ /4\ /9\ /5\

And cu, you are going to play Squeeze Play. And also see that unfortunately, I think Jim is as bad in signs as Jeff is. But that's ok. We'll work with that. This is a nice TV, but it's not quite $20,495. The 2 is the first number, and the 5 is the last number, but you need to either remove the 0 to make the price $2,495, the 4 to make the price $2,095, or the 9 to make the price $2,045. What will it be cu?

Post by: therealcu2010 on June 19, 2010, 10:56:06 AM
Man, Unique, you sure seem to get the short end of the staffing stick, don't you? I'll make a call over to the network executives about getting you some competent staff right away. :D

Anywho...I'm gonna pull the 0. Hopefully Jim didn't mess up on the reveal...

(btw, I'm surprised that that loveseat was so expensive...carolinachair.com is cheap. :D)

$667 is larryboy's bid.

nowhammies11:$899 Vadernader$666: Kev347:$850 larryboy389:$667

And the actual retail price is...$780, and larryboy wins with a strategic one up! Larryboy, come up on stage, as you face the next game in this show of mine. Now Larryboy, let's see what you can win!

A video game and a lawn mower! First, for the Wii, it's New Super Mario Bros. Face the baddies in this new game that pays homage to the classics. Next, from Husquvarna, it's the 7021RC lawnmower. Provide a clean cut lawn with high precision. Or larryboy, how about a new car?! It's the 2011 Hyundai Azera GLS. Comes with standard features plus premium package, the Hyundai Azera!

TEN CHANCES

[  Game ] [ Lawnmower  ] [ Car  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ]

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

And here comes Ten Chances. You will have a total of ten chances to win all 3 prizes. Let's start with the video game.


[   045 ] [ Lawnmower  ] [ Car  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ]

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

As you can see, the numbers 0, 4, and 5 are up there. Using two of these three numbers, tell me the price of that video game.

(For the record, this...is....annoying to do without graphics)

[  50 ] [ 0357  ] [ Car  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ]

You now see a 0, 3, 5 and 7 for the lawnmower. Using three of these four numbers, tell me the price of the lawnmower.
Title: Re: A Very Unique Half Hour Price is Right: Episode 2
Post by: larryboy389 on June 20, 2010, 10:04:09 AM

*ding* Right! Now Larryboy, you could be in a historic position here. You could be one of the few people to ever win Ten Chances in just 3 turns. Either way, you have 8 chances to price the car, and I'm confident that you can do it.

TEN CHANCES

[  50 ] [ 530  ] [ 02478  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ] [  ]

Alright, and those prices give him a total of..

[     CHECK OUT            ]   

       [   $21.00       ]

[BANANAS]  [SAUCE]   [ICE CREAM]  [BREAD]  [FISH STICKS]

*ding* $21. We'll see if these products add up between $19 and $23.

We'll start with the bananas, you said $3.50, and they are..


[     CHECK OUT            ]   

       [   .49    ]

[.49]  [SAUCE]   [ICE CREAM]  [BREAD]  [FISH STICKS]

49 cents! Kev, this is not a good start.  Now, you said clam sauce also costs $3.50. It actually costs...



[     CHECK OUT            ]   

       [   3.28    ]

[.49]  [2.79]   [ICE CREAM]  [BREAD]  [FISH STICKS]

2.79. That's better, but the total is still less than your first guess. This worries me. You believe ice cream is $4.50. And it is...


[     CHECK OUT            ]   

       [   7.77   ]

[.49]  [2.79]   [4.49]  [BREAD]  [FISH STICKS]

Much better, only missed that by only a penny. Still behind though. You said Wonder Bread was $4. What is it?

  [   10.76   ]

[.49]  [2.79]   [4.49]  [2.99]  [FISH STICKS]


Not a bad guess, but you really need these to be expensive Fish Sticks. More than the $5.50 you guessed on them. What are they?

 [   17.98   ]

[.49]  [2.79]   [4.49]  [2.99]  [7.22]

Expensive, but I don't think enough. A total of 17.98 and a difference of...

 [  3.02   ]

[.49]  [2.79]   [4.49]  [2.99]  [7.22]

$3.02. *BZZZZ* Too much there Kev. No prize for you, and unfortunately your total isn't high enough to get you into the showcases, but thank you for playing.

Showcases are next! Don't go away!

Post by: UniquePerspective on June 21, 2010, 10:01:40 PM

Contestants not appearing on stage will receive Stuff. Grade A Stuff. Contents of Stuff may vary per person. And now here's UniquePerspective with the showcases!


cu2010  larryboy389

larryboy389, you are the top winner in today's showcase. cu2010, you are the runner up. Each of you will have a showcase of fabulous prizes to bid on. The bidder who goes closest without going over will win it. But, if you are the winner, and you are $250 or less away from your own showcase, you win both showcases! Larryboy, you may bid on this first showcase or pass it to cu. And here comes showcase number 1!

This showcase is all about water. And you can start by swimming in some cold water in your own inflatable pool set! From Intex, it's a 15x48 pool set. Let the fun times go by swimmingly. Next, you can see the water in a land near oceans, like Rome, Italy! You and a guest will fly from Los Angeles to Rome, Italy, courtesy of Delta Vacations. You'll spend six nights at the Hotel Bernini Bristol. Enjoy all of what Rome has to offer. And finally, sometimes you just need to embrace the water itself, like you can on your new ski boat! From Glastron, it's the GT 205 SF. This 19 foot 4 inch boat can also be used for fishing, so it's a diverse boat for the diverse boater. And this showcae, all about water, can be yours if The Price is Right!

And Larryboy, will you bid or will you pass this to cu?

Winnings:
cu2010: $33,415
larryboy389: $29,830
Kev347: $895
Vadernader, nowhammies11, and Ketsuban: Grade A Stuff
sjd93, estes24, pathfinder20 and Goldenbulldog: A ride on the short bus

Showcase Recap:
Showcase 1:
Pool set: $400*
Trip to Rome: $5,907
Boat: $25,888

Showcase 2:
Fireplace: $2,048
Range: $1,950
Sebring: $33,980

*I had a mild problem with the pool set. Amazon gave a sale price and a list price for the set. I went with the list price, thinking that would probably be the ARP. If I'm wrong, it's only a $175 difference so it would by no means affect the winner, just give cu a little less money if that sale price is correct

Notes:
Might this be the quickest HYO ever? I personally never expected it to go this quickly, but it was what it was.
Lesson about cars. Limited adds money to it.
Also lesson about boats. Glastrons can be very unpredictable. I went with a fairly expensive one, but depending on the model it could go very cheap.

Thanks everybody, and I'll see you some time for episode 3.
