Doug: Scarlett, as we get another game ready, find me another player, please.
(fade to crowd)
Scarlett: Dom Falance, come on up. (audience cheers) It's your chance to win big on Hot Dice.
(Dom runs up to stage; shakes hands with Doug at dice table)
Doug: Welcome, Dom. Hope you're feeling lucky -- because we'll give you a shot at CY$20,000 playing a game we call Missing Digit.
The objective is to complete the correct answer to this question.
In what year did the United States of America celebrate the country's bicentennial?
Now -- you probably have an idea of what the right answer is. Here is that year -- with one missing digit.
 
 
|
Doug: There it is -- 1970-something. The last digit is hidden by the question marks.
That digit is higher than 0 and lower than 7. And you're going to try and roll that missing digit with this dice cube -- that has the actual numbers 1 through 6 as opposed to 1 to 6 pips.
    
|
Doug: We're going to give you five chances to roll the correct missing digit. If you think you've rolled the missing digit, lock it in -- and we'll check to see if you've won CY$20,000. If not, take another roll.
Keep in mind, after your fifth roll, you're automatically locked in to that digit.
The moment you lock in the right digit, you win CY$20,000. But if you lock in a wrong digit, you don't win the CY$20,000.
The question again...
In what year did the United States of America celebrate the country's bicentennial?
...good luck and roll that missing digit.
(Dom rolls)
|
Doug: And you roll a 1. That means if you think the U.S. celebrated its bicentennial in 1971, lock it in and we'll see whether or not you've won CY$20,000.
|
|
Doug: If you don't want to lock in 1971, you've got four chances to go.
(audience shouts suggestions)
Dom: Doug, we rollin'.
(Dom rolls)
|
Doug: And it's a 5. If you think this country of ours turned 200 years old in the year 1975, lock *that* in.
|
|
Doug: If not, you've still got three chances to roll the right missing digit.
(audience shouts suggestions)
(Dom rolls)
|
Doug: And it's a 6. If you think the American bicentennial came in 1976, now's the time to lock in.
|
|
Doug: If not, now's the time to grab a lucky charm. You have two rolls to go.
(audience shouts suggestions)
Dom: We lockin' in and I'll take the 200 C-notes Jim Lange "Name That Tune" style.
(ding) (audience laughs and cheers)
Doug: Uh, actually, payment doesn't come in the form of C-notes. We cut you a check. And if you see that nervous looking accountant over there -- yeah -- I likes your chances of winning the 20-large.
You've locked in the 6 as your answer. Show us a 6 behind those question marks.
|
Doug: There ya go. 1976 was the year we celebrated 200 years of independence. Congratulations.
Scarlett, we finally found a winner in an audience game -- and we have time for *one* more audience game. Don't just find me a player. Find me a winner, please.
