Wheel of Fortune
 

I'll spiff this up later, but for NOW

Hello, Gamingforce, and welcome to Mo0's rendition of Wheel of Fortune, blatantly ripping off one of America's favorite gameshows! It's Hangman plus CASH MONEY (virtual) AND PRIZES (also virtual)! Isn't that EXCITING?

I'm actually torn between two different ways to "host" this. One of them involves allowing everyone to play by taking simultaneous turns over the course of a day, updating the board all at once, and then everyone getting another crack. The other way is what I'm going to do at first, which is ask for three players:

Red Player: Hawkeye
Blue Player: wvlfpvp
Yellow Player: Crash Landon

and play the game the normal way. To spin, you'll roll a 1d24, and I'll let you know what you landed on. If you land on a dollar amount, you'll guess a letter and win that dollar amount for each instance of the letter in the puzzle. If there's no instances of that letter, you lose your turn. Land on the Lose A Turn space, and the same thing happens, as well as Bankrupt, which also wipes out all your money.

I'll explain other "twists" to the gameplay (shamelessly ripped off from the real show) as we get to them. For now, I need 3 players and 1d100s to determine who'll go first. Tally-ho!

Annoying blinking note: Because of the nature of this game and how the posts won't show up in recent posts, I'll be pestering people by PM if they don't show up for a day or so. Feel free to do the same to me if I do the same.

sounds like fun. Hopefully i'll still have internet in the coming days.

I'm in. Red.

Please to roll your 1d100.

Ack! Sorry, forgot.

I'm SO in. Blue

Holy shit, a tie on a D100 roll, didn't see that coming.

Taking YELLOW.

Looks like I go first.

Sweet, 3 players! To save time, I'll perform the tiebreaker.

Crash, you spin first! The puzzle is:

$600, not bad! Pick a letter, Crash.

Which one are you Milton, Pat or Vanna?

I'm both!

Thinking of Mo0 as a man and a woman is a horrendously gross thought.

That being said, this is kickass. I want in next round.

Anyhow, I pick the letter T

Me too please kthx.

This could totally give me a reason to restart the Trivial Pursuit shit.

Two T's for $1,200, Crash. I forgot to mention before but vowels are the WoF standard $250 apiece, if you want a vowel just say so, or if you're spinnin', give me that roll!

I'll spin again.
