Time to search for challengers in the Net Match Game - Hollywood Squares

Hour.  As usual, some notes before we commence



\ Our current champion, John Menjes, won CY$37,500 the last time around.

He, of course, plays the winner of Match Game, which you're trying to

qualify for.



\ Joining our usual suspects on the celebrity panel are Net Gambit's

Robert McBride, Top Of The Trivia Hill's Tom Krueger, Jackpot Who

Am I's? David Hammond and an old friend of NMG-HSH, Canada's biggest

"Hollywood Squares" fan, Mystic Girl



\ Yes, I know, the most recently completed episode's not in the

archives.  Due to technical difficulties, I can't upload files to our

current archive home.  Hopefully, we'll get this fixed soon.



\ Please note this probably will be the last episode before the

hosts, Ryan and I, take some late Spring, early Summer vacations.



Time to look for contestants.  To play the Match Game portion of our 

internet game, please respond to this with the following...



\ Your name



\ Your e-mail address that you wish for the hosts to send you 

NMG-HSH-related e-mail



\A sentence or two about yourself (like real game shows)



\Your answer to this qualifying question...



In years, what is the average age of a farmer from North Dakota?  



(time passes)



Okie doke.  According to AgDay Television, the average age for a farmer

from North Dakota is... 

(ding)



...fifty-four.  Now, let's see who came the closest?





Ethan Musulin	50

Alan Timper	58



("Greed" tie sfx)



You two, eh?  Well, the player who chimed in first goes first.  And

it is...



Ethan Musulin	50



...Ethan.  Now, if you're saying to yourself, "Self, wasn't Ethan on

the last show?", he was -- but as a panelist.  The "three episode

wait" rule only applies to civilian contestants winning the cyber-money.

If we invite you to the panel as a celeb, that's a different story.



With that said, Alan, you'll be in the Player 2 desk for Match Game.

To everyone else, thanks for playing.  Pending an audience game, the

next qualifying round's coming after the future Mrs. Doug and I come 

back from our honeymoon (probably early June).



=======================================================================



Voice guy: "Jennifer Lopez's Divorce Court" (audience laughs) will not

be seen tonight -- so that we may bring you two net games that are

still together.

(NMG-HSH sign rises; MG-esque doors open; Ryan and Doug are 

welcomed to an ecstatic crowd, walk down the stairs, shake hands)



Doug: Thank you, ghost of Jay Stewart.  Helloooooooooo, everybody

and welcome another Net Match Game - Hollywood Squares Hour.



Ryan: Our current champion, John Menjes, has CY$37,500 to his 

credit.  He'll play for more later in Hollywood Squares.  Also

in HS, we'll play for a secret square currently worth CY$55,000.



(oohs and aahs from the crowd)



Doug: And as always, the road to Hollywood Squares goes through

Match Game -- with help from these fine folks.  Hello, stars!

 

 

 

 

Panel: (more or less in unison) Hello, Ryan and Doug.



Doug: Let's start the fun with Match Game!  



(audience cheers)  (Ryan and Doug shake hands)  (Ryan walks over

to "the Morris chair" among the panel)  (Doug walks over to the

Match Game players' desks)

 

 

 

(audience cheers) 



Doug: And joining us in the fun are Ethan Musulin and Alan Timper.

If Ethan looks familiar, he was with us up there on the celebrity

panel on the last show.  The rules don't prohibit such a matter

-- so long as someone waits at least three episodes between 

appearances as a *civilian* player.  And Ethan, the civilian,

tell us about yourself.  



Ethan:  I'm currently a sophmore at El Camino College in Torrance, 

CA, majoring in Political Science. I hope to get my AA degree very 

soon and I also hope to transfer to USC in the fall.



Doug: Ah, well good luck in your studies and good luck here in 

NMG-HSH.  And Alan, a word or two about you?



Alan: i'm Alan Timper, a 31 year old pharmacist from Lima, Ohio....

I'm currently the host of the idle 'Net Fast and First' which will 

make its return in March



Doug: Can't wait for that to return.  Good luck here in this game.

Players, as you know, you're trying to match as many...

 

 

 

 

Doug: ...of these former Van Halen lead singers as you can.

(light laughter from the crowd)  Each time you match a star, you

win CY$100.  Match everyone and your total goes up to CY$1000.

The player who has matched more stars at the end of the third round

wins the game and plays against John Menjes in Hollywood Squares.
