Welcome to our 13th episode of Net Definition. We're not going to give in to superstition and hope this day's a lucky one. Before we start, some notes are in order.
\ Shawn Wells became our latest undefeated champion. So we seek two players in this upcoming episode.
\ Since this is Game 13, please sit on your hands if you played in Game 10, 11 or 12. Can't remember the last time you played? Go to www.dougmorris.net/definition and click on the archives link.
Now for the qualifying question. The two players closest to the right answer, high or low, get to play. The question
On July 3, 2009, at 2:30pm Central, we watched a GSN rerun of "Lingo". The winning team scored how many points in this episode? Please respond to the nearest multiple of 25 points.
(time passes)
OK, thanks to all for your patience. Let's get right to the answer.
                     |
It's 375 and who came the closest?
Lori Burstein 350
Nice guess, Lori. Only off by 25. Next closest?
Andrew Long 225
John Menjes 225
("Greed" tie sfx)
One of these two. The player who locked in sooner plays against Lori...
John Menjes 225
...and it's John Menjes. Net Definition's comin' at ya.
====================================================================== Rich Jeffries: "Brothers and Sisters Embarrass Themselves on 'Family Feud'" (audience laughs) will not be seen at this time -- so that we may find out if this replacement *strikes* your fancy. (audience groans) ======================================================================

Rich: From CDM Enterprises, Net Definition. The President's favorite game.

Rich: Solution...

Rich: ...and our solution to fun with the pun on VBS is Net Definition. Now, the winner of the Nobel Prize for puns -- our host, Doug Morris!
Doug: Thanks, Rich. Hellooooooooo, everybody -- and welcome to another game of Net Definition. And thanks to Andy Silikovitz. He wrote our opening pun. He along with Michael Clifford and Shawn Wells are in the running to win CY$1,000,000 in our Mega Playoff. There's room for one more and it just might be one of these two players.

Doug: A warm welcome please to Lori Burstein and John Menjes.
Doug: We'll chat in a bit -- but let's get our game started.
       |
Doug: Our first round's about to start worth CY$250. The next round is worth CY$500. The third -- CY$750. And if we need a fourth round, we'll play for CY$1250.
A game is CY$1500. The first to reach that goal wins the game and plays our A to Z Round for CY$50,000. (audience cheers) But if you sweep the first three rounds, you'll play the A to Z Round doubleheader -- for a possible CY$100,000.
Doug: So without further delay, let's get into the game -- with our first definition.
ADVANCE TO CY$250 ROUND
