Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Temptation
Eight is is, then.
And, as you've probably guessed, I have one more gift.
*models bring out a podium covered in Lego sets*
Ayjo: It's a bunch of Lego(tm) sets! Heck yeah! I loved these things when I was a... wait, I still *do* love them! Anyway, 40 Lego sets of all shapes, sizes, and makes, from castles to cities to SPACESHIPS!!! This collection pretty much has it all. Well, a lot, anyway. We've also thrown in a copy of The Lego Movie, on DVD, because we can!
And that package is $2,000. Legos are expensive, you know. And that last digit, as such, is a 2 or a 0. Which is it?

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Temptation
And, the zero.
Now. This is where the name of the game comes in. I've just offered you, no strings attached, $7,670 worth of prizes. You can take those right now, forget the car, and go on with your life.
Or, you could try for the car. Right now, you have a price of $23,680. If that is correct, you win the car. However, if even *one* number is wrong, you lose everything. The car, *and* those prizes I just gave you. If you opt to do this, however, I'll also give you one last chance to change any or all the numbers, if that price doesn't look right to you. That is, you could make that 3 a 1, that 6 a 9, and so on.
What's your decision?

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Temptation
All right, then. The prizes are yours, and that car goes back in the garage. But let's just see how you would have done. Just for curiosity's sake.
Well. Only that zero was correct, so I'd say you made the right decision! And you'll be back later to spin the big wheel, of course. Enjoy those prizes!
We'll continue things in a moment, but for now. A word from our sponsors!

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Operation: B.I.D.
So hey. We're short a contestant. I want a remedy to this problem.
Ayjo: And hey, I happen to *have* one. Bean, come on down! You're the next contestant on the Talkhaus Price is Right!
And what's our next item up for bids?
*models bring a podium on stage, with two tablets on it*
Ayjo: It's a pair of tablets! A couple of standard-featured Windows-based Tablets from... some company whose name we're not legally allowed to say on air, because they didn't sponsor us! Each comes with a one terabyte of storage, which is nice.
And ye olde drille still applies. Bean bids first, followed by En Gardevoir, Katazuki, and RedMageMike.

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Step Up
*blinks* That was fast.
The actual retail price of those tablets is... $1,000!
So very, *very* close to a perfect bid, but never mind. Katazuki, get on up here! Because we have even *more* prizes for you to win. I hope.
*doors swing opened*
Ayjo: It's a new exercise bike, designer clothes, a laptop computer, and a mini-hovercraft!
Ayjo: First, from Health Nuts, this exercise bike goes from like 0-60 in 3.8 seconds or something like that! Great for working those legs, I guess. Being a cat, I can't really *do* that sort of exercise. Speciesist scums.
Ayjo: Second, from Fashions 4 More, two fancy suits and two fancy dresses! Enjoy a night on the town in style with these high end fashions! Fashions 4 More: Our Name Says it All!
Ayjo: Third, a laptop computer! From Pewlett-Hackard, this no-frills model comes with a 1 terabyte hard drive and 8 gigs of RAM! You already won two tablets, so why you'd need *this*, I don't know. But hey!
Ayjo: And finally, a mini-hovercraft, from... oh gods, *them* again? *sigh* CatSail. Makers of fine cat-like aquatics. Zip around the lake or swamp or whatever at high speed in this two-seater craft! Eels not included.
And here we have Step Up, a game that I literally did not know had been retired on the Price is Right itself until I looked up screenshots of this game on the Price is Right Wiki in order to make the graphics! Hooray!
That said, this one's easy enough to explain: What you want to do is pick the prize you believe is the least expensive of those four, then "Step Up" to one more expensive than it. If you pick right, you'll win that first prize and $500. From there, you want to "Step Up" to another prize that's more expensive than the last, earning you *that* prize and $1,000. And so on. If you're to correctly place the prizes in order from least to most expensive, you'll win everything, as well as that total of $3,000.
However, if at any point you're *wrong*, you lose everything. So with that in mind, there's an out available for you. If you feel like any prizes you may have left *aren't* more expensive than the one you've chosen, you can opt to quit and keep what you've won at any time.
So, to start, pick which prize you believe is the least expensive of the bunch.

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Step Up
Kuro: Heh, well, I mean I never knew this pricing game existed until now as well, so that makes two of us! And there's features on a laptop that a tablet can't do, so the more the merrier you know!
Kuro: Still though, this is a pretty tricky one. Especially when you're asking which of these is the cheapest. So I suppose my first choice will have to be the laptop.

All right. Show us the price of that laptop, then.
$799. That looks like a pretty good pick. Now, if you can pick a prize more than that, which really shouldn't be too hard, you'll win that and $500. What's your next pick?

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Step Up
Kuro: Now I could go for the more obvious choice, but my intuition tells me that this might be next logical choice. Granted I'm not too good with pricing things, but I'll say that the next more expensive item is the exercise bike.

The exercise bike it is, then. Show us that price!
$1,200! I daresay that was another pretty good choice! You've won both those prizes, as well as $500. Is that good enough, or do you think you can Step Up even more? If so, what do you think is more expensive than the bike?

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Step Up
Then let's see the price of that hovercraft.
Ooh... $3,999. That *is* a step up, and you *do* win that and the $1,000, for a total of $1,500... but I'm worried that might be too *big* of a step up. Well, the choice is yours. Are you gonna press your luck and hope the clothes are more than $4,000, or are you happy with those three prizes and $1,500?

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Step Up
Very well, then, those prizes and $1,500 cash are yours. Probably a wise move, but let's check, just to make sure.
Only $2,480. Very yes, you did indeed do the right thing!
And with that, we've had a fairly eventful first half. No *complete* wins, but we've given away some nice prizes all the same. Back in a moment with today's first Showcase Showdown!

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Showcase Showdown #1. No funny title this time.
And we are back with the first Showcase Showdown of the day!
You should know the rules by now. The one closest to $1.00 without going over in one spin or a combination of two spins gets to go to the Showcase at the end of the show. If you hit $1.00 exactly, you win $1,000 and get a bonus spin in which you can win $10,000 or even $25,000 more.
As for how we do it, it's the old number thing. You pick a number between 1-20, I generate a random number on random.org, add them up, fiddle with the numbers, multiply by 5, and there you go. It's not the best solution, but it's worked decently enough for five episodes so we're doing it again, heck yeah.
BurntTenda managed to walk away with the most in prizes just by *not* going for that car in Temptation, and will spin last. dr_vblschrf will spin first, then Katazuki.
So, all right, Mr. the Fox. Spin that wheel!
