(O)PTIMIZE Reloaded: StrangerCoug's game!

[puzzledan]

I knew this was coming I hope I give you a 4 and 0 let pull the unthinkable shall we hell I pull 4 and 0 one time doesn't mean I can't do it again
3 and 1 for the 4 and 0 combo

Best of luck Feirei

[yabbaguy]

puzzledan

Starting green off after it just got dented. Giving it the worst target, in fact!

*puzzledan unlocks the sphere, then gets yanked up*

Whoa. Cool. You're probably freaking everyone the heck out right now, Feirei.

*I walk over to dan's spheres*

puzzledan

*and open it myself*

puzzledan

*everyone cheers, I let dan down from the rafters as the spotlights around him are seen flashing a green glow on the set*

Oh my!!!

Well, well, well. We could find ourselves with exactly what one hopes for when we stick someone with a 3.

So... yeah, hell, why not again? No golden sphere, our second sphere this round will be another sphere from dan's rack to determine our new target.

puzzledan

*flip!*

puzzledan

*gasps, applause*

OOOOH, close! You nearly nailed it again!

Finicky spheres. 1s for targets won't cooperate, 3s work swimmingly. Heh.

And whaddaya know, there's that prickly 1 again. Nobody's beaten that particular target yet...

Feirei, do me a favor and post your player picks in

bold

please? Thanks!

[Cheery Dog]

Did we fire all the stagehands?

[Feirei]

As DRENCH is away for awhile, I guess I will pick him and hope the autopick goes well.

And its hard enough to phonepost, yabba. I guess I could capslock.

[yabbaguy]

Drench

Meh, just as long as I kinda get who you're getting at, no pressure to bold. If you ever get the chance I guess.

Now

Drench finally gets into the game and blue sector still has a 1 to deal with. Is third time the charm?

We'll give him the mandated 24 hours, I've known people to pop up out of nowhere.

[yabbaguy]

Did we fire all the stagehands?

For incompetency. They cited safety protocols being violated or something.

[yabbaguy]

Yep, autopick it is.

Original Roll String: 5d5

5 5-Sided Dice: (5, 4, 4, 3, 3) = 19

[yabbaguy]

4 & 3 selected.

Drench

*up comes the lid*

Drench

*audience groans, set turns gray*

Oooooooof. Blue's brutality continues! There's only a 6% chance of whiffing on three targets of 1 in a row. x_x

Drench

And now blue's maximum is a (comparatively) measly $6,000! Now then...

*spotlights shine on golden spheres, over I go*

Well, now I think we're kind of liking it if blue were to vanish now. That'd clear up all sorts of problems for you.

Skipping you

*points at fifth sphere*

, we're opening

*loud groans, some chuckles from the crowd*

Oooooooooooh, bollocks! Those UV golden spheres are just running away!

Welllllllllll, at least we've got one more where that came from for the time being.

You don't get much uglier in those two right columns without actually collapsing them. I see that $500,000 still glistening in the top corner though. Hmmmmmmm.

Meanwhile, stupid stupid dumb 1 is back for more shenanigans. Have fun.

[Feirei]

Hmm.

Tragedy, hang someone please.

[yabbaguy]

I'm really afraid to say, because I love seeing Tragedy chiming in during your games, but if she hasn't done it after 48 hours, I'd really appreciate it if you just go ahead and make the pick yourself so that we can play at a lively pace. Sorry.

[Tragedy]

HANG THE ICEGUY. DO ITTTTTT

[puzzledan]

why cant we idk stop hanging people
Just my opinion don't hold it against me

[animorpherv1]

*hangs puzzledan*

[puzzledan]

NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOO

[yabbaguy]

I'm gonna be slightly generous because I haven't invoked the contender deadline before and I know Feirei's been online, but we're going to have to pause this game if he doesn't pick soon.

...and no, that would not be a capital offense.

[Feirei]

HANG THE ICEGUY. DO ITTTTTT

You heard the lady. String ICEGUY from the rafters (and maybe give him a stool to stand on)

[yabbaguy]

IceGuy

Sorry we left you hanging, IceGuy.

*rimshot, groans*

You've hit duplicates the past two games, and we're hoping this will not complete the turkey, because we need this one to put green on $4,000.

[yabbaguy]

*lid magically lifts*

IceGuy

*audience groans, set flashes gray*

oooooooooooooooh, that's gonna hurt. Not getting any love from that IceGuy slot. x_x

IceGuy

*spotlights shine on golden spheres*

Now at every turn we could be seeing the end of ultraviolet and its possible $500,000 payday. Let's see if it happens right now...

*unlocks next sphere*

THERE'S a red finally. Wish it'd been blue, but the violet cash remains intact.

Still looking for a color to make it past the consolation level. This target of 0 ought to help do that.

[Tragedy]

I'M SURE YOU CAN NEVER TRUST GREENS. D;

*Pets Feirei, hoping to point at the purples*

[yabbaguy]

*audience awws*

[Feirei]

*hugs Tragedy, then points at XTOPHERUSD*

[xtopherusD]

*

points at self uncertainly, then quickly nods and selects spheres

*

I'll open the third, then second, spheres from the left.

[yabbaguy]

xtopherusD

Yes, you. We need you to bump that UV figure up to $10,000 please.

xtopherusD

*xtopherusD equally as hesitantly opens up the sphere*

xtopherusD

Whoa!

*audience cheers, set turns violet*

That's more than enough to do the job. Ultraviolet is on its way up!

xtopherusD

*spotlights shine on golden spheres*

But of course, if I open the wrong golden sphere, that $10,000 is gone in a blink of an eye. Let's see what's next to drop...

*click*

Well thanks to xtopherusD who came screaming over the top of that target, you are now on a 3.

Your thoughts on what your least favorite color is right now?

[Feirei]

Im picking no one special

and if that doesnt clue you in on who im picking then the person i picked will.
