(O)PTIMIZE Reloaded: StrangerCoug's game!

[JDGA]

UV really just doesn't want to stick around in this edition, does it? :S

[yabbaguy]

It's actually being rather helpful! Now you get to learn the depressing reality faster!

[Cheery Dog]

I thought he audience was meant to be other scummers, also I didn't know they came in cans.

[StrangerCoug]

Why do I get the impression that it's swingier this way? Is it because this game doesn't lend itself well to ultraviolet making it toward the end?

[swyellowtail]

It has a 1 in 10 chance of being the last sphere in the entire set, but there's a pretty high chance of people getting a 4 during the entire game, making the UV rather hard to obtain. (If there are 2 spheres left, and one of them is the UV sphere, it's a 50-50 chance of getting it, for example)

, help me out here man.

This is to keep the $60,000 around, otherwise the most jmj can win is $20K. orcinus, you've got three good spheres to find.

[orcinus_theoriginal]

Mayyybe.

[swyellowtail]

Don't leave us hanging, man!

whoa, whoa, whoa. Easy there, tiger - I mean, raccoon.

Randomizing...

Original Roll String: 5d5

*audience groans, set turns grayscale, jmj's upset*

Bah. x_x

$60,000 vanishes from the game, if only we'd waited for the lowest possible target!

orcinus_theoriginal

*spotlight shines on golden spheres*

Only three colors to worry about now. You stand to make the most off red, so we'd rather avoid those.

*snaps the lock on the next sphere*

Good stuff. Green no longer the most frequent color!

Two to go in absolutely every sector. Interesting how they're being picked so evenly this game.

Try that 1 again.

[orcinus_theoriginal]

what the hell

{$2,000}

[$5,000] [$20,000]

Red's, curiously, has the highest figure in play right now. It's the only color capable of being won 4 times and that would be good for $20,000 in all of its golden spheres.

D3f3nd3r, my man, we need your help to get us to $5K.

[D3f3nd3r]

Last then first.

[yabbaguy]

D3f3nd3r

*here it comes!*

D3f3nd3r

*audience groans, set flashes gray*

Gahhhhhhhh the ace appears again and that's curtains for the $20,000 now! 1s everywhere the eye can see!

D3f3nd3r

Picked the lowest two, but of course he pegged the 0 where he ought to have.

*spotlights shine on golden spheres*

Now we're back to the colors being as relatively valuable as they were before. Red's got a simplified path to its new destination, but it's a meager $5,000. We would rather avoid losing a blue here.

*pushes in the latch, turning it dark red*

Blue goes back to start with a 20% chance of showing.

This game, initially stuck on the railroad, is now coming well and truly off the rails. You can definitely fault the color spheres for ruining some really nice targets for us and the golden spheres for removing the wrong colors. ._.

Next?

[jmj3000]

Bird

[yabbaguy]

bird1111

bird one one one one....... we don't want a 1.

It's for $6,000 on the way to $15K if you pick the right sphere.

[bird1111]

, if I get a 4 then

Second

[yabbaguy]

*sphere opens*

bird1111

*loud groans, set flashes gray*

Oh dear. ._.

bird1111

*spotlights shine on golden spheres*

Ten golden spheres remain, and we're hoping now the greens stay put. $10K is still a lot.

Good! Sure, red has the most right now, but I imagine that's good news.

Now those triple-digit figures are starting to look a bit concerning. $10,000 would be a great way to escape this derailing train though.

Keep trying to find a way!

Also, those random picks are what derailed the game yabba. Ah well, lessons learned for my next appearance.
