Cyber-Phone Match We're back. Let's see that magic number...
(ding) ...and meet who's playing the cyber-phone match... Brian Moore +1.001 Hey, pretty sharp shootin', Tex. You may remember Brian ran the table on one MG question in a main game last year. Unfortunately, he still lost. But still, let's see if he can win more after this... ====================================================================== (theme to "Greed" plays) Justin Lollie: You'll have to survive a lot of trivia challenges to win all the *Loot*. Join me for Loot: The Net Game -- only on VBS. ====================================================================== (audience applauds; MG-HSH music plays)
Doug: And welcome back. Well, before we go, we thought we'd go ahead and say hello to the three additional stars that will join us for the Hollywood Squares portion of our game that continues on our next show (after the holidays). Ghost of Jay Stewart, who are these folks? (audience applause) TGoJS: From FastTalkers, Chico Alexander... from BattleBlocks, Jason Antoniewicz... and from VBS MarketWatch, Dana Epstein. Doug: OK, thanks and hello to Chico, Jason and Dana. We'll put them to work after we meet our cyber-phone player -- Brian Moore. (audience cheers) (picks up cell phone) Hello Brian. Brian: Hi Doug. Doug: We're going to get right to the proceedings and tell you just for making it this far you've won CY$500. Brian: All right! Doug: And there's a lot more to be won. Even more than CY$5000. Here's how. I have a standard MG frontgame question in which all nine stars will play. Brian, for each match you make, you win CY$100 on top of the CY$500 you have. However, if you match all nine, what ends up being CY$1400 becomes CY$2500. (audience cheers) And you'll play for ten times as much cyber-cash -- so you could be shooting for CY$25,000. Are you ready? Brian: Yes. Doug: All righty. All nine stars, please put pen to paper for this... I have a TV Guide listing: Sunday night, MTV, "Celebrity Deathmatch". Mills Lane goes from referee to contender in a fight to the finish with Judge << BLANK >>. (MG '7x changing keys think music plays)
Doug: OK, Brian, all nine dingbats are ready. Here's the question again... I have a TV Guide listing: Sunday night, MTV, "Celebrity Deathmatch". Mills Lane goes from referee to contender in a fight to the finish with Judge << BLANK >>. Brian: Judy (audience cheers) Doug: A dream match up for sure. Chico, are ya with us on that? Chico: Let's get it on! +------+ | JUDY | +------+ (ding; audience applause) She's the boss applesauce. Doug: Sure is. Already, Brian, you have CY$600 as we go to Jason. Jason: Nothing better than intergender boxing... ------------- | JUDGE | | JUDY | | | ------------- (ding; audience applause) Doug: There's another match. Dana, Brian's looking for another Judge Judy. Dana: This would make an interesting fight.. I think she might actually beat the crap out good ol'boy Judge Mills Lane! +----------+ |Judge Judy| +----------+ (ding; audience applause) Doug: Without a doubt. Well, Brian, you cleared the top row and have top dollar at CY$800. Let's see if you can add more as we come to Charlie. I have a TV Guide listing: Sunday night, MTV, "Celebrity Deathmatch". Mills Lane goes from referee to contender in a fight to the finish with Judge << BLANK >>. Charlie: I certainly don't mean Ms. Tenuta! (:)) +------+ | JUDY | +------+ (ding; audience applause) Doug: Though, it would be interesting to see Judy Tenuta render justice in a case. Anyhoo, Jay, what do you say? Jay: Real Cases. Real People. +--------+ | JUDGE | | JUDY | | | +--------+ (ding; audience applause) Doug: And Brian is really racking it up. Already at CY$1000 with four more to go. Mark? Mark: Well, I rejected Judge Wapner's coming out of retirement party (shows card with Judge Wapner written on it) and went with the ultimate battle for ratings... (flip) JUDGE JUDY (ding) (audience cheers) Doug: Brian, you're mowin' 'em down. Six matches for CY$600 plus the CY$500 we spotted you for CY$1100 with hopefully more to come as we come to the lower tier and Ryan. I have a TV Guide listing: Sunday night, MTV, "Celebrity Deathmatch". Mills Lane goes from referee to contender in a fight to the finish with Judge << BLANK >>. Ryan: Wapner +======+ |Wapner| +======+ (audience groans) (buzz) Doug: Well, a blast from the past derails the streak. But, let's see if we can't win Brian some more moolah. Matt? Matt: As a law student, judges are my speciality. Although I could make many obscure judge jokes, you go with the obvious one here--JUDGE... (card flip) JUDY (ding; audience applause) Doug: There's CY$1200. Klaussie, can you make it CY$1300? Mike: My first hunch was Judge Reinhold but Brian would skin me alive for coming up with an outdated answer. Since we're not stuck in the 1980s, I went with Miss Congeniality for 4 years running, Judge Judy. (ding; audience applause) Doug: OK, Brian, eight matches as we summarize the answers...
JUDY | JUDY | JUDY
JUDY | JUDY | JUDY
WAPNER | JUDY | JUDYDoug: Brian, you scored eight matches at CY$100 apiece. That's CY$800. Add that to the CY$500 you won just for winning the right to play gives you CY$1300 and a chance at a bank worth ten times as much or CY$13,000... or does it? Brian, we have an extra somethin' somethin'. One of our celebrities is sitting in our cyber-phone match secret square. If you've matched that celebrity, the bank will automatically swell to CY$25,000. (audience cheers) Now, the CY$1300 you've won will not be affected by this. Still, you have a good shot at this as I ask... who's sitting in our cyber- phone match secret square?
(secret square sfx; audience applause) Doug: The last man you matched, Brian! Mike Klauss is in our special square which means you're not playing for CY$13,000. The bank's gonna be worth...
(ding) Doug: ...twenty-five thou! (audience cheers) Now, Brian, what you have to do is match one of our celebrities head-to-head. This must be an exact match of course. Who do you want to team up with? Brian: Let's go with Michael Klauss.
Doug: Klaussie, Brian turns to you for help in this big money moment. Please put pen to blue card for this query and then, Brian, I'll call for your answer. Here's the CY$25,000 question...
Doug: << BLANK >> Michigan. That's M-I-C-H-I-G-A-N. << BLANK >> Michigan. (MG '76 Super Match think music plays) (Mike scribbles something incomprehendible; asks for opinions from Matt and Mark; puts card in slot)
(ding) Doug: OK, Brian. Mike's ready with his response. We call for your answer. If you match Klaussie's answer, you'll score CY$25,000 more. What do you say to << BLANK >> Michigan? Brian: Lake Michigan (smattering of applause) Doug: Hmmm...not a lot of support from the crowd. But then again, they didn't write down the winning answer. Mike did. So... for twenty- five- thousand cyber- dollars, Mike, did you write down "Lake Michigan"? Mike: I'm sorry. I came up with the first thing that came to my mind, The Motor City... +-----------+ | | | DETROIT | | | +-----------+
(buzz; audience groans; TPiR losing horns) Doug: Ah darn it, Brian. No Lake -- no 25-grand. But, you still had a great day at the plate. We'll be sending a check your way worth CY$1300 -- congratulations. (audience cheers) (Earl runs up to the stage to collect the phone) I'm gonna hand the phone over to Earl and we'll make sure the check gets to the right address. One more time for Brian Moore. (audience cheers) (Doug hands phone to Earl) Well, that'll wrap things up for NMG-HSH for now. Ryan: But, next time, these stars and Doug will join us for Hollywood Squares on the next show. Phil Levine looks to add CY$1150 to his winnings so he can make it in to the champions' special. Doug: And of course, Rick Brown will have a little something to say about that. That's next time on the Net Match Game - Hollywood Squares Hour. Don't miss out or else you're << BLANKED >>. Ryan: I agree. Doug: See you next time everybody.
