Wow. You guys realize I've got to win this Freakin Random Cash bowl, otherwise I'll still be in contestants row on my vacation, right? So...

$1000. Simply because I dont expect a IUFB to be more than $2000.

Step up here to this #1 podium......the reason why I say that is.....

....for the pricing game that we're gonna play first, we're gonna need TWO players!

Rich, we need another player in the row, who is it?

Ah hah!

You're playing Anvil Drop, and if the contestant loses, it drops on the other contestant's head.  :-D

Oh, I'm gonna LOVE THIS!!  $1399 please.

By the way, my sensors indicate something pretty evil on the horizon.

$1212, please.

(Note: we might have to wait a bit with the game if I win due to my vacation. If I dont win, we'll see what to do.)

$1

Some wiseass on G-R.net:  "Hey, doesn't Fireball always criticize contestants that bid $1 when not in fourth position?"

Yeah, I know.  That bid just made me the biggest hypocrite on G-R.net.  Shut up.  
Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

You know something, I really DO sense some evil brewing.  I wonder if this two-player game just happens to be the answer to Question #7.

GoldenBulldog:  $1399
ucb2912:  $1212
BRB_TheFireball:  $1
Punchboard91:  $2

The actual retail price of those wheels is..........

$397!  Punchy, get on up here!

[Punchy and I go up to the turntable, where tpiradam is waiting]

Take this 2nd podium Punchy, because you and tpiradam are gonna play a game where ONE of you will go to the showcase showdown, while the other one just....goes away.

However, there is a nice benefit to winning this game.....because if you win this game, you'll get this....

[Model comes around on turntable with a key]

....key.....

Rich:  And the key starts this.......



YOUR NEW CAAAAAAAARRRRRRR!

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is the perfect luxury car for going around the town!  Comes with standard equipment, power driver’s seat, 7-speed automatic transmission with touch shift, COMAND system with DVD navigation, SIRIUS satellite radio, 6-disc CD changer, and rear side airbags!  

(Podium 1 (I) = tpiradam, Podium 2 (II) = Punchboard91)



We're gonna play 2-player Bullseye!  The object is to guess the price of the car on the nose.  You'll each go back and forth guessing until one of you wins it.  As per the usual rules, after one guesses, I'll tell the other one whether the correct price is higher or lower.  And to help you out, you'll be able to see what the other's last bid was.

Another lil' hint that you may wanna take note of......the price of that car is between $33,500 and $34,000.

tpiradam, start us off with the 1st bid!
