The Price Is Right: MdN EditionIf any of you are interested, I probably would be able to set up a version of The Price Is Right here in this forum, where I could offer prizes and play pricing games. No real prizes, obviously, just for bragging rights, and that you can say you were on The Price Is Right in at least some capacity.If so, I would need at least 9 people to do this. (Four people for the initial come on down, and 5 more to be called down later.) |

| mizzie |
I'd love to do this! | ||
| Annie |
Um.......YES?!?!?!?!
|
||
| jax1491 |
I'd play!!
|
||
| Amber |
Ooh, I'd like to try! | ||
| UniquePerspective |
Alright folks, here's what we're going to do.
I'm going to do the first "come on down" with these four, and have the first item up for bids. In the mean time, I still want people to sign up, so that we can have people for the next pricing games. Just another rule, for the item up for bids and the pricing games, you'll have 24 hours to make a bid or guess, or else you forfeit that bid or guess. Also, the order in which I'm calling you down was determined completely at random. Also, it was randomly determined that this will be the reverse order of bidding. (Because sometimes they line up in the order of bidding, sometimes they line up in reverse) Therefore, the person I call down first will bid last, the person who I call down second will bid third, third person called will bid second, and fourth person called will bid first. And without further ado, here we go. Announcer voice: Here it comes! From the Sally Chou Studios at some place on Earth! The fabulous internet version of America's longest running game show! The fabulous 60 minute Price Is Right! jax1491! Come on down! Annie! Come on down! mizzie! Come on down! And Amber! Come on down! You are the first four contestants on the MdN Price Is Right! And now, here is the star of the MdN Price Is Right, some guy from Ithaca named Jordan! *thunderous applause* Jordan: Welcome, to the MdN Price is Right! We have lots of fun, great contestants, and fabulous prizes coming up. Here is the first item up for bids today! Announcer: It's a home gym! *model shows gym* This Inspire M2 Gym offers an array of exercises for the person who wants a complete and balanced workout. Comes with 150 pounds in stack weight, single handed pulley adjustment, and more. Jordan: Thank you announcer. And that home gym will go to the one of you who bids closest to the actual retail price without going over. Amber, what is your bid? |

"I'll bid.......$1!!!!" | ||
| UniquePerspective |
And a $1 bid for Jax.
And the actual retail price of home gym is...$2199. Bid list: Amber: $1500 mizzie: $1250 Annie: $1375 jax: $1 Amber is our winner, and so Amber will play our first pricing game, right here on this fictional stage. And let's show her what she will be playing for today! Announcer: It's a new spa! From Great Lakes Spas, the GL-4 seats 4-5 people and offers progressive styling, a storage chest, and two fully theraputic deep seats. Back to you Jordan. Thank you random announcer. Now Amber, our first pricing game is Squeeze Play. You see a price here of of $51275. This is not the price of the spa. Both of the 5's at the end are correct, and you must remove one of the numbers in the middle to get the right price. You may remove the 1 to make your guess $5275, you may remove the 2 to make your guess $5175, or you may remove the 7 to make your guess $5125. What is your guess? You may have until 1:04 PM EST tomorrow if needed. |
||
| Amber |
I will take a stab at this....
My guess will be $5175. |
||
| UniquePerspective |
Her guess is $5175. Let's see if she's a winner.
*DINGDINGDINGDINGDING* And she is! Congratulations Amber, you have won our first pricing game on our very first show! (From now on, the people who I call to come on down will be determined at random from the remaining sign ups. The exception was the first four thing I just did so I could get things started.) And, we're back. Announcer guy, who is our next contestant? Announcer: We're looking for...shakalakababy! Come on down! You're the next contestant on The Price Is Right! Welcome to the stage shakalakababy! And now, the next item up for bids! Announcer: It's a digital camcorder! From Sony, this 40GB camcorder will be sure to fulfill all of your video needs, whether you're the next film maker in the making, or just a casual recorder. Alright, shakalakababy, the first bid belongs to you! You may have until 10:52 PM EST tomorrow if necessary. |

||

$400 for shakalakababy.
Bid list: shakalakababy: $400 Mizzie, the next bid is yours. If necessary, you have until 9:50 AM tomorrow. |
||
| jackissensational |
Hate to be a butt, but (lol) aren't I next? |
||
| UniquePerspective |
No. It works like the original Price Is Right, the contestant who gets called on down and the three contestants who didn't win in the pricing game. You get your turn when I call you down, which will be random. And as I said, yes I did do the first four out of the first four who signed up, but that was to get it started.
Again, reminding mizzie of her bid, she has until Saturday, 9:50 AM EST. |
||
| mizzie |
I bid...$570. | ||

I bid $625!!! | ||
| mezzo_soprano |
I'll play! | ||
| UniquePerspective |
And $625 for jax.
And sorry mezzo_soprano, I have everyone I need, so there's no more room. And the actual retail price is...$950. shakalakababy: $400 mizzie: $570 Annie: $615 jax:$625 And jax is the winner, and will play our next pricing game. Now jax, you'd figure on the MdN Price Is Right, that sometimes we offer real good prizes. And today is no exception, what do we have for her today announcer? Announcer: It's a new...CAR! It's the Dodge Avenger SXT, comes with features such as front side airbags, anti-lock breaks, Sirius Satellite radio, and more! $32741 Thank you announcer. Now, Jax, the game you see here is called One Away. You see a price here of $32741. This is not the price of the car. However, each of the numbers is only one away fro the right number, for example, the first number is either a 2 or a 4, the second number is either a 1 or a 3, the third number is either a 6 or a 8, etc. You must pick the right numbers for the price of the car. If you don't get it on your first try, don't worry, as long as you get at least one number right, you get a second chance. So get to it jax! For your first guess, you may have until 6:51 PM if necessary. |

Just as a reminder to everyone, sign ups are over for this game. When I do another one though, all of you are free to play. | ||
| jax1491 |
AHHH!!!!
(sorry I was out all day) My first guess is... 21,650 |
||
| UniquePerspective |
Her guess is $21,650. Is she a winner?
BUZZ No, but as long as you got at least one number right, you can keep playing. How many numbers does she have right, if any? 3 Three numbers correct. That means two of the numbers are wrong. Change two incorrect numbers to the correct ones and you win the car. You have until 10:00 PM EST tomorrow, if necessary. As a reminder for what you can change, you can change the 2 to a 4, the 1 to a 3, the 6 to an 8, the 5 to a 3, or the 0 to a 2. |
||
| jax1491 |
Okay...
23,850 |
||
| UniquePerspective |
Her new guess is $23,850. Let's check to see if you won. First, let's see the first number in the price of the car:
2 A two. So that number was correct. Let's see the second number in the price. 1 *BUZZ* I'm sorry, you didn't win the car. What was the actual price? $21,830 I'm sorry. You should have changed the 5 instead of the 1. But, you get to spin the big wheel later on in the showcase showdown. And right now, we need a new contestant. Who is that going to be? Announcer: Well Jordan, it's going to be Brock07! Come on down, you're the next contestant on The Price Is Right! Welcome Brock! And now, the next item up for bids! Announcer: It's a four seat sofa! From Broyhill, this sofa provides maximum comfort to any and all sitting or laying around. And Brock, the first bid is yours. You may have until 1:21 PM EST tomorrow, if necessary. |

And here we go mizzie. Now, I can't give away a car two games in a row, that's just not The Price Is Right code. However, I do have a pretty nice prize for you, don't I, Mr. Announcer?
Announcer: Sure do, it's a chance to win $10,000 in cash! $10,000 playing...Half Off. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] There you see 16 boxes. In one of them, is $10,000 in cash. Now, it'd be a little tricky picking one out of all of these boxes. But, you can potentially eliminate half of the boxes three times, if you know anything about the pairs of items here. (Again, I'm a bit tired so I can't do elaborate descriptions, I placed a couple clarifications below but I'll try to do what I can) Pair #1: Dough-nu-matic Donut Maker: $75, "I Love Lucy" Doll(Similar style to a Barbie, not like a Raggedy Ann doll): $40 Pair #2:Magellean Go GPS Receiver: $80, 8 GB Flash Drive: $54 Pair #3: Handheld Freecell Solitaire Game: $19, Zepplin Telephone (A house phone shaped like a zepplin, not like a cell phone): $20. Now, in each of these pairs, one of the items' prices is half off what the actual price would be. You pick the half off item, and I'll take away half of the boxes, for as many of those as you get right, so potentially you're down to only two boxes. Submit all 3 guesses to me at the same time by 11:46 PM EST tomorrow. |
||
| UniquePerspective |
Just reminding mizzie about the deadline for her guesses for the items ends in about two hours and 45 minutes. | ||
| mizzie |
Okay, here are my guesses:
Pair 1: "I Love Lucy" Doll Pair 2: 8 GB Flash Drive Pair 3: Handheld Freecell Solitaire Game |
||
| UniquePerspective |
And of those, how many did she correctly guess?
1 Only 1. The flash drive was $108, so $54 was a half off price, however in the first pair, the doughnut maker was half off at an actual price of $150, and the zepplin phone was half off at an actual price $40 dollars. But, you do get half of the boxes eliminated, so let's see what you have left to work with. [2] [3] [5] [7] [8] [11] [12] [16] Now, the $10,000 is behind one of these boxes. But which one? That's up to you to guess. Now pick one. You may have until 10:04 PM EST tomorrow if necessary. |
||
| mizzie |
I'll pick 12, because it's one of my favorite numbers.
*crosses fingers* And wow, I really sucked at figuring out what was half price. |
||
| UniquePerspective |
mizzie has picked box number 12 for $10,000 dollars. Is she right?
*DINGDINGDINGDINGDING* *sits down in shock* I can't believe it. I cannot believe it. A 1 in 8 chance, and she gets it spot on. I'm impressed. Which means $10,000 dollars for mizzie. The Showcase Showdown is next. |
||
| mizzie |
YEEEESSSSSSS!
I'm feeling lucky, Bob! I mean...erm...Drew! I MEAN...JORDAN. |
||
| UniquePerspective |
It's Showcase Showdown time, which means, it's time to spin the big wheel. mizzie, as the top winner in the first half, you will spin last. Amber will spin second, and jax will spin first. Now, due to the cheap budget on our set, we couldn't quite get an actual big wheel on here, so we'll do this. There are 20 spots on the wheel, so each of you will pick a number between 1 and 20 twice, in case you need two spins, and the number will correspond to the amount you get on your spin. I made six lists of random numbers between 1 and 20 to determine the order of the amounts per spin. In the next 24 hours, I'd like all 3 of you to give me your two numbers. For Amber and jax, I'd also like to know what is the first value you would not take a second spin. (As a reminder, the spots go from 5 cents to a dollar in 5 cent intervals) I need all this by 10:28 PM EST tomorrow. | ||
| mizzie |
My first number: 12
My second number: 17 |
||
| jax1491 |
Spin 1: 13
Spin 2: 6 And....I would stay at 85 cents. |
||
| UniquePerspective |
Since jax is ready, let's have her spin the wheel.
*beepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeep* And around and around it goes, where it stops, we will know...right...now. You have 15 cents. And from what you said earlier, I know you want to spin again, so here you go. *beepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeep* And once again, it goes around and around and around. Where will it land this time? Only 10 cents, so 25 cents total for jax. Amber, you're the only person I still need spin values for, you have until the pre-established deadline, the only thing is that I no longer need a value for which you'd stay, since if you pass jax, you stop your spinning by default. |
||
| Amber |
My numbers are 7 and 16. | ||
| UniquePerspective |
And now let the rest of the showcase showdown continue.
Spin that wheel Amber! *beepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeep* And the wheel just loves spinning and spinning. But it lands on...10 cents. Spin again, you need at least 15 cents but not more than 90. *beepbeepbeepbeep* And the wheel just keeps on turning, you gotta love that spinning. And...wait...wait...this could be good, this could be good. And you land on...90 cents! You got the dollar! *cue Price Is Right dollar theme* You'll get your bonus spin for up to $10,000 dollars next time. But now, it is mizzie's turn. Get up there and spin that wheel. You know what you gotta do. You can only tie the dollar, not beat it. Now spin. *beepbeepbeep* And here we go. You gotta tie the dollar. Nothing else will do it, and...10 cents. What is it about 10 cents that seems to be so popular today? I don't know. Well, it worked for Amber, let's see if it will work for you. Spin again. *beepbeepbeep* You need exactly 90 cents to tie Amber and get to the showcase. Will it work well for mizzie? Will she make things more interesting? Nope, only 75 cents that spin, for 85 total. Sorry mizzie, not quite good enough today. Now Amber, as the lucky person to get a dollar, you get a bonus spin. Land on the 5 cent or 15 cent spaces and you get an additional $5000, but get the dollar space, and you get an additional $10,000 dollars. And I need one more number to do this, so give me that number, Amber. |
||
| Amber |
Gosh, this is rad.
My number is................................................ 19 |
||
| UniquePerspective |
And here we go.
Around and around it goes. Here it comes, what will it land on? And it is slowly landing on...15 cents! That means an additional $5,000 for Amber! $6,000 total won on this wheel, congratulations. The second half of the pricing games will begin shortly. |
