First Run TPiR / Re: TPiR Recap - 6/19/2013
« Last post by PriceBusterXL on Today at 12:08:26 PM »
Now I can understand why Mike would change the Spark price on L7, seeing that not too many contestants would say 0 on that game, but what I don't understand why a price of $14923 had to look a little evil, much less put it on L7. Might has well put that on Let 'Em Roll instead.

Once again, someone went bold on Temptation this season (*sighs*)..........Seems Shanetta was a bit questionable about that price of the Mini Cooper.

And don't get me started on Plinko.

On the bright side, it was nice to see Bonkers and it was to have it won.

Basically the winning bulk of the show was mostly trips (aside from the other prizes on OWP, and Balance), and a no-car-win show was the one thing Mike wanted, seeing that he might be on edge from yesterday. How unfortunate for us..............

Hope tomorrow will be better, seeing that Check Game is coming back.

It's going to be interesting how the SFX will be handled, especially with the games that debuted in the first decade of the show's existence, but I'm sure they'll figure out something. With a computer controlling the sounds, how will we know where the secret X is? How will we know whether the number the contestant stepped to was right or wrong? Will the Yodely Guy fall off the mountain? Did a contestant pull out a number or a strike from the bag? How far is the contestant from $21? Was the word NO or WIN hidden behind one of the Five Price Tags? This is where the SFX person comes in very handy, and to see a 41-year-old tradition come to an end the way it apparently did is just plain horrible.

My thoughts exactly!

Guys..... this is not that hard to comprehend.   There is still a human controlling the computer!   The human operator feeds the computer data on what happens onstage and the computer responds with prop and audio cues.

CSS -- Chatroom Showcase Showoff / Re: CSS9 Playoff Leaderboard (After 7 Games)
« Last post by cu2010 on Today at 11:18:30 AM »
Torgo's second DSW in a row vaults him all the way to the top of the standings. Punchy remains in second by an extremely close margin.

Three games remain...the chase is very much still on.

Curse those African safaris.

Every time one of those things shows up, there are a boatload of garfs on it. Today was certainly no exception, as all but two of you garfed it...and pretty spectacularly, to boot. Wayoshi was the closest, and gets fake cash...of course, since it's the Playoffs, and cash doesn't count...

On the other side, though, we have yet another super-easy iStuff/Honda Civic combo we've seen a thousand times. And the results show, as those of you who scored on it were all within $2000, with twelve three-digit differences. I don't know what the record for the most DSWs in one Playoff game is, but today has to at least be close, with a whopping FIVE DSWs, the best being from DJTorgo, recording his second in a row. Could a change on the top of the standings be in the works?

With no prior experience as a director. Not even directing the local news or a kiddie show or Dialing for Dollars at some local UHF station. When your dad is CFO of the company I suppose opportunity just falls in your lap.

It's all about who you know not what you know anymore.

Sure, you can program a computer to simulate a "ding" anytime a number lights up on a screen, but how is a computer going to produce a sound when a model flips a price reveal?  How does a computer know when the numbers are squeezing together?  How does a computer know when Drew reveals a price flap on Grand Game?  How does a computer know what number the die landed on?  Is the front half of the car behind 17?  Did all 5 dice land on CAR?
It's going to be interesting how the SFX will be handled, especially with the games that debuted in the first decade of the show's existence, but I'm sure they'll figure out something. With a computer controlling the sounds, how will we know where the secret X is? How will we know whether the number the contestant stepped to was right or wrong?
