mj311's Price Is Right Episode 1: The Beginning
« on: July 11, 2024, 03:41:59 PM »
Greetings everyone! I always wanted to do an HYO on here but found the process of getting one planned out quite difficult. Also, this part of the site has been dead for years, and I've wanted to do my part to revive it. Now, thanks to some gentle nudging by gamesurf over on Discord, I'm stoked to say that I'm finally doing it!

This will be a half-hour format show consisting of three pricing games and the showcases. This means that it will be imperative to win your pricing game to have a shot at being in the showcase round.

There will be a standard 24-hour time limit on all decisions. Also, audience participation will not be allowed during the IUFBs but will be encouraged at all other times. I plan to start the show on Sunday night.

So, who wants to play?

Full disclosure: mungojerry311 asked on discord to share some advice about putting together a script, and I gave him some general pointers about finding and sourcing prizes without ever seeing his script or discussing what specific prizes or games he wanted to use. I don't know any more about what exactly he has in store than anyone else.

So since I'm in the dark as to specifics, I'll help him out further by jumping in the contestant pool.

Password looks like any idiot could have made it up, but we have 14 of our people working on that show. There is a great complexity behind the screen. It requires great work to keep it simple."

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.

I'm gonna jump in. If I get called down, maybe the third time's the charm and I'll actually win a pricing game this time. :P

Live for the present.  Embrace the future.  Our favorite game show is still producing excellent, high quality, exciting, hour-long* shows every weekday throughout its traditional season window.  It’s as good as it’s been in a long, long time.  If the 1980s were the ‘good ole days’ for the Barker era, so is RIGHT NOW for the Carey era.  Don’t worry about what the future holds.  It will play out in due time.  Enjoy what we have right in front of us in the meantime!
