Match Game anyone?

Instead of spending money to watch reality on cable TV, I’ll buy A WINDOW.

Larf! That’s an excellent idea, cmkeller! Let’s see if any of the panelists felt the same way:

[del]Maus Magill: matched in round 1

Dr. Girlfriend: matched in round 1

HardlySanguine: that new pyramid scheme

notfrommensa: matched in round 1

Hoopy Frood: porn

Yeticus Rex: real life

That leaves us with a tie!

Hold tight while I double-check everything![/del]

No, it’s not a tie. Due to an error in my transcriptions, I had Maus Magill having matched in round 1 for cmkeller when in fact he did not.

Now I need to figure out why both Maus and I thought he’d matched in round 1.

This will probably result in a new round 2 question for cmkeller.

Okay, I’ve looked back through my PMs and I think I see where the problem occurred, so with luck I can prevent a similar problem from happening again. My apologies to all concerned.

So, the fairest thing to do is to try again with a new question for cmkeller. The score is currently 3-2 in favor of antonio107, and Dr. Girlfriend and notfrommensa still lay out, having matched cmkeller in round 1.

Here we go, then:

If he wins, I call Shenanigans. :smiley:

I couldn’t be so lucky as to get caught up in a game show scandal. :wink:

Besides which, that was Barry & Enright, Match Game is a Goodson & Toddman production.

Gene rayburn.

Hahaha! That’s an excellent answer! Let’s see what our panelists had to say:

Maus Magill: a little girl

Dr. Girlfriend: matched in round 1

HardlySanguine: a voyeur, which after some consideration our judge says is not a match :wink:

notfrommensa: matched in round 1

Hoopy Frood: a Wall Street banker

Yeticus Rex: Barbara Streisand

So I’m afraid that’s no matches in round 2 for cmkeller, which means our game ends with the score 3-2 in favor of antonio107!

Congratulations to our new champion, antonio107!
I’m going to take a 48-hour breather to recharge my question-writing batteries a little bit, so look for a new game to start Tuesday around 5 pm ET!

YUSSS! I WON!

I was actually gonna say “Barbara Streissand,” if only because that damn Duck Sauce song is stuck in my head, lol.

So sorry for the delay, gang. Look for a new game to start around 9 pm ET. :slight_smile:

New game begins now!

Remember, the first two responses I get will be the contestants, the next six will be the panelists. Please PM me now with your best response to this:

I’m here!

Indeed you are, Dolores, and welcome aboard! You are contestant #1, in fact, and as I now have a full slate of answers from our panelists, it’s time now for you to share with us all your answer to this:

I’m gonna say…

update!

Oh, boo.

I meant to say upgrade. :frowning:

And the beauty of this way of playing the game is, I know that’s what you meant to say, because that’s what you did say originally when you PMed me.

“Upgrade” is Dolores Reborn’s answer, so let’s see what our panelists had to say:

notfrommensa: buy a new phone, which our judge says is a match!

Maus Magill: go to bed

cmkeller: buy Apple stock

HardlySanguine: get a new phone, another match!

Hoopy Frood: sober up, which I will try not to take personally. :slight_smile:

Yeticus Rex: walk in the 4G wonderland
Well, our newcomer has done quite well for herself, scoring two points in round 1!

Let’s see what round 1 has in store for our next player, longtime panelist who finally made it to the turntable as a contestant: Dr. Girlfriend! Please consider your reply while the panelists PM me their responses to this:

Just an FYI, I’m gonna be driving halfway across the country tomorrow, so if I’m slightly slow in responding I apologize in advance. I do have an answer ready!

No worries, Dr. Girlfriend. Holidays are what they are. I probably should have postponed the game until after the weekend, but we’ll see how it goes. :slight_smile:

Yay! I scored! :slight_smile:

Can you remember the first time you said that?
