All righty then. You're banking on it being in that center square. Well, if it's there, you're a winner. Reveal that Secret X, prop people!
Image
And there it is! You're a winner! Enjoy your prizes, and don't forget to take a Pricing Game Winner banner from the discussion thread!

Now that the Christmas rush is over, updates shall resume as normal, so... back in a flash!

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Mini Ep. 1 - Bidding Once Again

Post by YelseyKing »

We've wasted enough time with Christmas. Meya, who's our next contestant, finally?

Image Meya: We got another returning player... Whimsical Calamari, come on down! You're the next contestant on the Talkhaus Price is Right!

Now, what's our next item up for bids?

Image Meya: It's a pair of bicycles!

*models bring out two bikes, one red and one blue*

Image Meya: From Cyclers, these two sturdy but lightweight bikes are perfect for city streets *and* off road adventures! Helmets, as well as elbow and kneepads, included!
Image
Image
This should be old hat by now. Whimsical Calamari gets first bid, followed by pholtos, Telamon, and Maiku. Bid wisely, since this is the last one of this mini-episode!

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Mini Ep. 1 - Lucky Seven

35 dollars? Sir, just what kind of show do you think we're running here?

Actual retail price of those bikes... $980!
Image
Image
Telamon, get on up here! Our first *new* contestant, hooray! And you came up here at a good time. Because really, did you think we'd go even a *short* episode without making an attempt to give one of *these* away?!

*a shiny blue car is driven on stage*

Image Meya: It's a new car! It's the Ponyac Rutabaga, the only car in the world named after a vegetable! Comes with power steering, power doors, air conditioning, AM/FM radio with MP3 player, rear window defogger, and California Emission! (I... I don't know what that is anymore than Ayjo does.) The Ponyac Rutabaga!
Image
Yes, it's Lucky Seven! Now... *hands Telamon seven $1 bills* Here's seven dollars. See this lovely automobile here? I'd like to sell it to you for only *one* lousy dollar! But it's not *that* easy. First, you have to guess the individual digits in the price of that car. Let's just go ahead and give you the first digit for free, shall we?
Image
2. Now then. The way this game goes, you'll give me what you believe to be the second digit, then the third, fourth, and fifth. However, for each digit you're off, you give me back $1. So if you guessed 5, and the correct digit was 3 or 7, you'd give me $2 back. And so on. If, by the end of the game, you have at least $1 left, I'll *sell* you that car!

Now, what is the second number of that price?

Heh. I was kinda hoping Whimsical Calamari would win his way up, so he'd be the first person to play the same pricing game twice. Oh well. :P

Just stepping in here to note that YK is having some serious computer problems, so it's going to be a while before we see any new updates.

Hopefully the problems will be taken care of before too long and we can get this back underway. Thanks for your patience.

It's been a long time coming, but let's get back into this! Show us that fourth digit!
Image
*losing horns*

...well, you're broke. *takes back the last $4*

Man. Are you kidding me? All that time, just for an immediate loss? Well... what's that last digit, for curiosity's sake?
Image
6. So that's that.

We'll be back with the Showcases after a considerably shorter period than close to a month. Promise!

If you're wondering what took so long, I spent the last week basically just getting everything working again. A faulty Windows theme I tried out initially rendered many sites much harder to use than they should've been -- Talkhaus included -- and I didn't want to resume this until things were fixed. They are, so... yay! Of course, restarting things with an *immediate* loss is kinda sad, but well, that happens, I guess.

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Mini Ep. 1 - SHOWCASE TIME!

Post by YelseyKing »

And we're back with today's Showcases! No, no big wheel. We're still in 1972 mode, and the wheel didn't appear until 1975, see.

So we go by winnings. Our top winner today, and the sole pricing game winner, is jayScribble! Our runner up is Telamon, who had to wait close to a month only to find out he...lost Lucky Seven. Well. This is redemption!
Image
Image
The rules are the same. Showcases full of prizes. jayScribble gets first dibs on the first Showcase shown, and can elect to either bid on it, or pass it to Telamon and hope the next one is better. The one who bids closest to the correct price of their own Showcase without going over wins. And if you're within $1,000 of the actual price, you win *both* Showcases! Yes, I'm aware the Double Showcase rule *also* wasn't in play in 1972. We're playing fast and loose with history, here.

Now, let's see our first Showcase!

Image Meya: Our first Showcase is all about food! Yummy, delicious food! For starters, you can cook up some delicious food outdoors with this...

*models bring out a barbecue grill*

Image Meya: New gas barbecue grill! From Grill Masters, its two foot rack is perfect for grilling up burgers, chicken, corn on the cob, or any number of other barbecue delights! Perfect for parties or just any old summer night.

Image Meya: But maybe the weather isn't right for outdoor cooking. In that case...

*big doors open, revealing a stove/oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, and dinette set*

Image Meya: ...maybe you'd prefer to cook up a feast in your new kitchen! First, a six-burner, easy to clean electric stove/oven combo; second, a double-door refrigerator/freezer combo, complete with ice maker and anti-frost protection! Third, you'll need to do up your dishes when you're done eating, so a new dishwasher comes in handy! All appliances come from Waterlogged Electronics!

Image Meya: And for eating dinner, this fine six-foot-long oak table and four matching upholstered chairs, from Furniture Makers Inc!

Image Meya: And finally, maybe you just don't feel like cooking at all tonight. Maybe you'd rather just go out for Chinese food... all the way in distant China!

*doors open, revealing a China trip graphic*

Image Meya: You and a guest will fly round trip coach from your home city to Shanghai China, where you'll spend four nights and five days in Hotel Shanghai, located right in the heart of an ancient city rich with history. While you're there, you'll receive a day long "Food Trip" around the city!

Image Meya: And this Showcase, which is all about foodstuffs, can be yours, if the Price is Right!

Excellent. Now, jayScribble, will you be bidding or passing? If you want to bid, just go right ahead and do so. If you want to pass, do so, then Telamon can bid. Now what'll it be?

$11,000 it is, then. Now, Telamon, here's *your* Showcase!

*big doors open, revealing a desk with a computer on it*

Image Meya: Your Showcase starts with a home office! First, a lovely mahogany desk from Furniture Makers Inc. Enjoy old world style in the modern era with this beautiful roll-top desk. To sit on, an upholstered swivel chair, also from Furniture Makers Inc. Sturdy enough to support up to 400 pounds! And for something to use with this desk, a new computer! This Swell brand computer comes with a 2 terabyte hard drive, 8 gigs of RAM, and a state of the art graphics card! Printer and game controllers included!

*another big door opens, revealing a TV and several video game consoles*

Image Meya: Second, for the game lover in all of us, a series of new video game consoles! A Sony Playstation 4, a Microsoft XBox One, a Nintendo Wii U, and a Nintendo 3DS! We've also included ten games for each! And you'll enjoy them in glorious high definition on this brand new 4K Plasma TV from Electronic Outlet! Offering superb picture quality and crisp surround sound, you'll feel like you're at the movies! Or maybe the arcade!

Image Meya: Or maybe you actually miss the nostalgia of arcades... so we'll let you relive that experience in your own home, with...

*third big doors open, revealing two arcade machines and a pinball table*

Image Meya: A home arcade! First, we have A Pinball Thing. All your favorite ASMT characters, in a pinball table! All the lights, sounds, and flash you'd expect from a pinball table in this modern era, and you don't even have to put any quarters into it! Next, A Fighting Game Thing. Experience non-stop action in this knock-down drag-out beat-em-up tournament fighter, in which you control a variety of armless bipedal cycloptic demons! Finally, the other arcade machine is Tetris. It's a classic!

Image Meya: And this Showcase can be yours, if the Price is Right!

Cool beans. So, Telamon, what's your bid on all this gaming stuffs?

A pair of $11k bids. Fair enough.

We'll start with jayScribble. The actual retail price of your Showcase is... $24,852. Must be one luxurious trip. Yeeks. For a difference of...
Image
Image
$13,852. Now, Telamon. You *also* bid $11,000. If you're closer to your Showcase than jayScribble was to his, you're our winner today... and the actual retail price of *your* Showcase is... $17,556, for a difference of...
Image

$6,556! You're the winner...
Image
Image
With a grand total of $18,536 in prizes! Congratulations!
Image
Image
And so ends the first episode of the Talkhaus Mini Price is Right! Episode 5 of the *main* series coming... uh, eventually. With my computer problems last month, I haven't even *started* on the graphics for that episode yet. In due time.

For now, though, this is YK, reminding you to help control the pet population! Have your pet spayed or neutered! Goodbye everybody!

*credits roll and the Price is Right theme plays, as Telamon and friends go up on stage to check out his prizes*
