Liked the first one? It’s back for another go-round!
Steph was the big winner last time, winning over $22,000 in prizes. You could be like her and win a crapload of fake prizes… but only if the Price is Right!
Format
Bidding is retooled it a bit to make it a bit more fair. No more sign-ups—bidding is open to anybody.
You'll get 48 hours to bid on a prize. Instead of getting one bid only, you can make as many bids as you want. Just three rules:
- Just like an auction, you can raise your bid, but you can't lower it.
- Each time you raise, you must bid at least $20 more than your previous bid.
- When the bids freeze, only your highest bid will be considered.
After the bids are frozen, the player closest to the actual retail price without going over wins the prize and gets to play a pricing game to try to win something even better.
Four pricing games are played. The two biggest winners after four pricing games get to play the showcases. Same as it worked last time.
Rules:
- If it’s your turn to play a pricing game and you don’t respond within 24 hours, you’ll get a prod; don’t respond within 48 hours and it’s an auto lose. So don’t do that.
- PM me if you're going to be in the middle of a hurricane or something and can't check the thread. I'll see if I can help you out, although I will try to keep the game moving as best it can.
- Prices are in US dollars. Our friends outside the US may use a currency converter to help them out if they need them. (No googling the prices of prizes—that would be unfair.)
- Audience participation is STRONGLY ENCOURAGED! Feel free to shout out suggestions in the thread.
