TK is going to call failsafe... if it's a bomb behind 37, we have two winners, otherwise it's just vincentw! Either way, the round is over. What is behind 37?
It's a bomb, and it's a two winner grid! We've got a lot to reckon here... Base win bonus is $500,000, plus a million for the clear board bonus. vincentw gets it multiplied by 4, then boosted at 443%... that's $26,580,000!
TK picks up that 1.5 mil times 9, meaning he gets $13,500,000!

We've got a bunch of minigames and a score changer to go... vincentw will start with Double Trouble, then TK with Pick 6, and Triple Threat, Jackpot Chance, as well as MatchUp! These things will start in 24-48-ish hours.

We've had this last round, vincentw, but let's say it again. You start with a grand, but that number can increase in a hurry! Ten doubles, each doubles your bank. 5 $2,000 spaces, each increases your bank by $2,000. 2 $5,000's, a $10,000, a Mystery, which can be from $1 to $20,000... and a bomb. Hit the bomb and the round ends for you. You may bail out after any pick.
vincentw, you may pick one or more spaces, but must do so by March 1 at 12:15 AM Eastern, or in

Let's start with 5 spaces and see where it goes.
15, 8, 19, 1, 6.

by JerryArr
Okay... looking at 15, 8, 19, 1, and 6, hopefully we go through all five. Let's start with 15!
Good start, $2,000. Let's see number 8 now!
Real good, a double! Up to $6,000, now to 19...
Another couple grand! Let's see #1 now!
Ten thousand now! Up to $18,000, and we'll look at 6.
Good start! $36,000 for you so far... pick as many more spaces as you'd like or leave with $36,000!
vincentw, your decision is due by March 4 at 1:00 AM Eastern, or in

I think I can do better than 36k!
Let's go with 5 more: 17, 9, 11, 2, 20.
Posted: Mon Mar 04, 2019 1:16 am
by JerryArr
The next five: 17, 9, 11, 2, and 20. Let's start with 17!
Real good, up to $72,000... now, it's 9!
Oh no... it's a bomb! That's the end of the round, so no additional money for you.
We'll be back with TK's first minigame round, Pick 6, next.

Alrighty TK, you're up for Pick 6. It's simple. Pick six of the twenty spaces, and, from right to left order, the numbers will fall into place and spell out your score for the round! Good luck!
TK's space picks are due by March 7 at 10:00 PM Eastern, or in

17, 12, 6, 15, 4, and 2.
(So, my score from right to left will be what's in 2/4/15/6/12/17 am I right?)
Posted: Thu Mar 07, 2019 5:30 pm
by JerryArr
You're right, yes. Let's see about 17!
It'll end in eight... next up: 12.
Better there than at the end of the round. 6?
A 3... three more to go. Let's see 15!
There's a 2... now what is four?
A 1... now, let's see a nine for a big value under the 2!
Oh no! The worst possible moment for that... $12,308 is your win, x9 times 2 for consecutive wins is $221,544, though, and we'll be back with Triple ThreaT next!

Okay, TK... here are three grid columns for you. As you can see, we've already revealed one letter in each column. There are the letters A-F, five of them appear in each column, and one does not, that's the decoy. It doesn't do anything except take up time. The letter T appears in all three columns, which is good! The bomb appears in one column. Don't hit the bomb or you lose all the money you have in this minigame. You start with $330,000 and every time you pick a letter, that is decreased by $30,000... but if you get a triple, we'll make that bank triple instead! AND, if you hit a triple T, the bank is tripled AGAIN, for a total of 9 times! Good luck, pick one or more spaces.
Your picks are due by March 13 at 2:45 Central, or in

Four of 'em, although 2-5 was already revealed... let's see a real good triple!
2-3, 1-3, 3-7, here they are!
Oh no... that's the end of the round with a bomb. Your Jackpot Chance will be at the end of the B grid, after we double the Jackpot!

Okay, TK, it's Jackpot Chance time! First, the Jackpot. It went all the way up to $60,293,626... but we're going to double that using the Jackpot Doubler, which means it's now at a massive $120,587,252! To claim it, all you need to do is pick all the letters in JACKPOT! There are two each of the letters J, A, C, K, P, O, and T. There are also a couple of $100,000 spaces, yours to keep if you find them. And there are four strikes, get three of them before spelling JACKPOT and the round is over.
Best of luck, TK. Your picks are due April 15 at 5:30 AM Central, or in
(expired on 2019-04-15 05:30:00).

Here we go! Number 4...
Hundred grand! Next up: 6!
There's the O! Time for 11...
Two letters in a row! Now, let's go to 13!
Oh no, strike one! No more of those as we dust off the last three numbers of the grid, starting with 18.
Back on track, it's a J! Next up is nineteen!
Fourth letter down, three to go, let's see if there's a C, P, or T behind 20!
And that's another hundred grand, win or lose! Next picks, please, TK. Your picks are due April 24 at 9:30 PM Central, or in
(expired on 2019-04-24 21:30:00).

That's a good chance, by the way.
16, 5, 8, 2, 12, 1, 9
Posted: Tue Apr 30, 2019 7:44 pm
by JerryArr
Let's hope so! Next up is 16...
An O, no harm no foul there... next is 5!
Another J for you... at least they're letters! 8 is up now...
Hey hey, there's a T! Two more letters to go, looking real good so far! Next is two!
That's a C, and it's just one more letter, the elusive P! A 2 in 9 chance to end it right now and tack on quite a bit to your score! Let's see the 12!
YES!! Wow, what a playing of Jackpot Chance! For that, we'll add $120,587,252 to your score, times 2 for consecutive wins, and you're sitting pretty right now! Grid A is finally depleted of bonuses and minigames to dole out, so sit tight while Grid B plays out!
