Not Known 15

has been eliminated. Thank you for playing!

Everyone else, you're still alive. Next elimination will be at the end of

Auction 10

, where

only the top two

will make it to the final.

Next up: new inventory and new lots. The old Lot A (1d4+4 / 1d4) is tossed; everything else moves up one space

and is doubled in value.

(Old lots get a straight x2; new lots get double dice and bonuses. Lots that aren't picked will get +2/+2 bonuses going forward.)

Rolls for the new lots:

Original Roll String: 2d8+8

2 8-Sided Dice: (1, 2)+8 = 11

Original Roll String: 2d8

2 8-Sided Dice: (1, 7) = 8

New inventory!

We started with 30 rocks, 30 papers, 30 scissors - most went to players, but some stayed in the bag. Bids paid went back to the bag, as did everything Not Known 15 had left.
We're now adding another 30 of each. Of those, everyone still alive gets three each. The rest go to the bag, and everyone gets to draw another six on top of the nine they just got.

If my math is right, this is what the bag looks like now:
34 rocks (1-34)
37 papers (35-71)
37 scissors (72-108)

And here's the draw...

Code: Select all

 35    3   38   13   87   39 > Charles510
 90   65   85   49   42   18 > Nancy Drew 39
 15   78   12   83   73   30 > Aisa
 36  107   51   26   25   84 > StrangerCoug

Charles510 gets: Paper, Rock, Paper, Rock, Scissors, Paper.
Nancy Drew 39 gets: Scissors, Paper, Scissors, Paper, Paper, Rock.
Aisa gets: Rock, Scissors, Rock, Scissors, Scissor, Rock.
StrangerCoug gets: Paper, Scissors, Paper, Rock, Rock, Scissors.
