Hellooooo, everybody. Hope 2011 is going well so far for you. Welcome to the first episode of Net Definition for the new year. (Hey, 2011, as of this writing, still has that new year smell.)
Some notes before we proceed...
\ Robert McBride is our current champion with two wins and CY$47,500. He needs to win this and the next main games to play our Make A Million game.
\ We have a new rule regarding the winner's board -- effective this episode. If a player wins the main game in a clean sweep (first through third rounds), the locations of the letter C and first half of the CY$25,000 bill are automatically revealed. Should a player win four straight games, the first half of the CY$25,000 bill is revealed as well as all three letters in "CAR" (thus awarding the car automatically).
\ This is Game 19. If you were a main game player in our 16th, 17th or 18th episode, please sit on your hands and let someone else in on the fun. Can't remember when you played? Head on over to www.dougmorris.net/definition and click on "archives".
Now the question. The player closest to the right answer, high or low, challenges Robert. The question...
On November 6, 2010, at 4:00pm Central, we watched a GSN rerun of "Family Feud". In the main game, contestants were asked to "name something that you should never leave unattended." Out of 100 people surveyed who were asked the same question, how many gave the number one answer of "child/baby".
(time passes)
And the survey said...
                   |
...62. Who's the closest?
Andy Silikovitz 55
With double-nickels, Andy takes on the champ. It's our first game of Net Definition in 2011 -- shortly.
======================================================================
Scarlett Gray: "CSI: Kansas City" (audience laughs) will not be seen
tonight -- because we can't figure out if it's the one from Missouri
or Kansas. In its place, we present the following.
======================================================================

Scarlett: From CDM Enterprises, Net Definition. She hosted the TV game show version of "20Q".

Scarlett: Solution...
   |
Scarlett: ...and our solution to fun with the pun on VBS is Net Definition. So, think you can figure out the puns? Here's our host to help find out -- Doug Morris!
Doug: Helllooooo, everybody; thanks, Scarlett; welcome everyone to Net Definition.
Cat Woman, eh? I'm bummed she didn't jump out of my birthday cake last month. (light laughter from the crowd) Moreover, I didn't even get a cake. But enough about me, let's meet our players.

Scarlett: All right, Doug. Our champion, whose winnings total CY$47,500, is a game show blogger -- Robert McBride. And his opponent is an avid Torah reader -- Andy Silikovitz.
Doug: Thanks, Scarlett. Players, welcome to our first game of the new year. We hope you had a great holiday season with treasured loved ones -- and that 2011 is treating you well so far -- and continues to do so.

Doug: Brief explanation of the rules. The first round is worth CY$250, the next is CY$500, then CY$750 and if we need a fourth round, it's worth CY$1250. Rack up CY$1500 and you go to the Winner's Board and play our A to Z Round to win tens of thousands more.
Quick word about the Winner's Board, we have a new rule about that starting today. If you win the game by sweeping the first three rounds consecutively, the chances of winning CY$25,000 or the car will improve. I'll tell you how if and when we cross the bridge. First, let's go to Scarlett for the first definition of 2011.
ADVANCE TO CY$250 ROUND
