The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Twice in Six Episodes!

Post by YelseyKing »

Image cat: cat planet cat planet cat planet :3

Image Ayjo: Go away, you. *pushes the cat off stage* Ehem...

Image Ayjo: Here it comes! From the "Forum Games" section of the Gazebo at Talkhaus, it's the forum's most exciting however-long-this-takes of fantastic prizes! The fabulous surely-more-than-60-minutes Talkhaus Price is Right!

En Gardevoir, come on down!

Katazuki, come on down!

Willhart, come on down!

And dr_vblschrf, come on down!

Image Ayjo: You are the first four contestants on...
Image
*The Price is Right theme starts playing*

Image Ayjo: And here's our host... YelseyKing!

*YK enters through the big doors, as usual*

Yes, we return once again for another exciting(?) episode of the Talkhaus Price is Right! We have a lot of prizes to offer today, so let's get this going without further delay! What's our first item up for bids?

*Turntable swivels around, revealing a bunch of Nintendo game consoles*

Image Ayjo: It's a Nintendo package deal! A Switch, a Wii U, and two New 3DSes! You know all about this stuff, Talkhaus, so I feel no need to explain it! Each comes with five games, including Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Splatoon, Super Smash Bros. 4, and more!

Image
Image

And all that gaming goodness -- as well as the chance to come up and play a pricing game, for a chance at even more loot -- will go to the one of you who bids closest to the actual retail price in American dollars -- not pounds, euros, rupees, or gil, mind you -- without going over. And no cents, either. We round our prizes to the nearest dollar! At least at this point in the game. Ehem. You all know this already.

En Gardevoir will bid first, followed by, Katazuki, Willhart, and finally dr_vblschrf. Don't bid out of order. That really annoys Ayjo.

I'm gonna have to pause the bid for a moment and restart things. Willhart had to bow out, so I'll have to call someone to replace him. Ayjo?

Image Ayjo: Well. We got a new face... BurntTenda, come on down! You're the next contestant on the Talkhaus Price is Right!

Image
Image

I'll keep En Gardevoir and Katazuki's bids. dr_vblschrf, you bid next, followed by BurntTenda. Never had to do this before, but hey.

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Hi-Lo

The bids are in, and we're ready to go. The actual retail price of that prize package is... $1,885!

Image
Image

dr_vblschrf, get on up here! Because we have s'more prizes for you!

*doors swing opened, revealing a sofa, two recliners, and a TV*

Image Ayjo: How about a new living room?

Image Ayjo: First, from Furniture Makers Inc., we have a plush, overstuffed velvet sofa, and two matching swivel recliners. With footrest! The ultimate in comfort! Or something.

Image Ayjo: Second, a 4K plasma TV! Enjoy rich, crisp... oh, whatever, you know what to do with a TV. Maybe hook the game consoles you won up to it. It's HD! From some company that didn't sponsor us, so screw all y'all. It's a prize package worth $7,989!

Image

It's the Hi-Lo game! In practice, this one's pretty easy: All you need to do is pick the three grocery items shown below that are the highest priced. If you can do that, you win. But if even *one* item's price is *above* the lowest price of the products you've picked... well, that's that. Anyway, what *are* these products, Ayjo?

Image Ayjo: First up, a Poor Man Frozen Dinner. Looks like this one has mashed potatoes, salisbury steak, and corn. So named because you'd have to be pretty poor to eat this slop.

Image Ayjo: Second, a 12oz bottle of Oil of Old Lady body lotion. Because when you're an old lady, you *need* this stuff to keep your skin from feeling like dried leather.

Image Ayjo: Next up, a 1,000-count pack of Health Nuts Vitamin Supplements. Because odds are, you're not getting enough vitamins in that all-fast food diet you probably subsist on.

Image Ayjo: Then we have Poke-Master Snack Crackers. Graham crackers shaped like your favorite Pokemon, like Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Mewtwo, and... that's all I know. My experience with that series begins and ends with Super Smash Bros. Melee. Comes in a cute Pokeball-shaped package!

Image Ayjo: And a 16oz jar of Bay-B Powdered Baby Formula. Tastes like vanilla. Contains far too much sugar for your baby, as well as probably far fewer essential nutrients than you'd like. But hey, you're buying it because it tastes good to *you*, not your kid.

Image Ayjo: Finally, D-Grime Dish Detergent. Leave your dishes spotless with this blue sludgey soap-like liquid. Hopefully won't cause the dreaded "Dishpan Hands"!


All right, then. That's out of the way. Now, which three products do you believe appear in that "Hi' row up top?

All right, then. The vitamins, formula, and detergent have been moved to the "Hi" row, and the rest in the "Lo" row. Let's see how well you did. Those vitamins are...

Image

$24.99! Yeesh! Yeah, I dare say *that* one belongs up there. What's the price of the formula?

Image

$7.29. Another safe pick, I'd say. Now for that dish soap...

Image

Mmm. $3.19. I'm... not so sure about *that* one. But we shall see.
Now. Let's take away the two higher priced items, since we're focused *only* on that $3.19 price tag right now...

Image

Now what's the price of that frozen dinner?

Image

$2.39. You're still alive, at least. What's the price of that lotion...?

Image

*buzzer*
*losing horns*

$6.99... no go. Just for curiosity's sake, how much were those snack crackers?

Image

$4.29. You'd have lost it with that, too. You had two right... just needed that lotion. Well, you'll be back to spin the big wheel, so who knows? Your fortune could still change! For now... back after these messages!

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - In which four contestants bid once on a prize

Post by YelseyKing »

Well. That was discouraging. But there's plenty of show left to go! So let's not waste any more time and get right back to it! Ayjo, we need another contestant!

Image Ayjo: And I have one. A red mage. RedMageMike, come on down! You're the next contestant on the Talkhaus Price is Right!

And our next item up for bids is...?

*doors open, revealing ... something whose purpose isn't readily apparent just by looking at it*

Image Ayjo: It's a relaxing mini-sauna! From the HeatMist Corporation, this sauna comfortably seats two adults for one of those nice, relaxing steam baths that always causes my fur to mat up. Must work better for humans than cats.

Image
Image

As always, ye olde Red Mage bids first, followed by BurntTenda, En Gardevoir, and finally Katazuki. NO BIDDING OUT OF ORDER! :twisted:

Re: The (Talkhaus) Price is Right Ep. 6 - Temptation

Image

The bids are in. And the old one dollah!

Actual retail price of that mini-sauna is... $2,789!

Image
Image

BurntTenda, come on up here on stage, because we have something I'm... reasonably sure you'll like...

*doors swing open, revealing a shiny green car*

Image Ayjo: A new car!

Image Ayjo: It's the Nord Ranger! Cruise over the tundra of Skyrim, or just the streets of your local city in this surprisingly off-road capable four-door sedan! Comes with standard features, and... there's that weird "California Emission" thing again. What *is* that?

Image

And your game is Temptation. No relation to that other game show with the same name. Why is it called Temptation? Well, we'll get to that later. For now, I'm going to just outright give you the first digit for free. Light it up.

Image

2. That's a $20k car there. Yes.

As for the rest of those digits, you'll be the one filling them in. How? Well... Hmm...

You know what? I've got another prize for you. Just for being here. Ayjo, tell us about it.

Image Ayjo: It's a fun air hockey table! From Parlor! Parlor!, this sturdy ten-foot-long air hockey table is fun for the whole family. Keeps automatic score, so you don't have to! Ain't that nice?

Now, you don't have to do anything. This prize is yours... maybe. The price of that air hockey table is $1,133, however, and one of those digits is the second number in the price of that car. Which is it, the 1, or the 3?

All righty then. Put that 3 up there...

Image

Note that this doesn't not necessarily mean it's *correct*, so don't get overly excited or anything. That's just showing what *you* picked.

And we shall continue. I have another gift for you, even.

*models bring out a bookshelf*

Image Ayjo: A fine oak bookshelf, from our friends at Furniture Makers Inc. Finely polished and holds up to 120 of your favorite books. Give or take a few, I guess. Some books are bigger than others.

Now, the price of that bookshelf is $699. And as luck would have it, the third digit of the price of that car is either a 6 or a 9. I believe you see how this game works now, so which is it?

Put that six up there, and...

Image

...time for a third gift! Hmm. Seems to be a big one.

*Meya rides on screen in an ATV*

Image Ayjo: It's an All-Terrain Vehicle! You know, what an ATV stands for. From Off-Road Warriors, this ... travels off road! I don't know what its engine is like. It's not going to blow up on you, anyway. Seats two!

And the price of that ATV is $3,838. You've probably got the hang of it by now. Is that fourth digit a 3 or an 8?
