Except puzzledan, everybody PM your anwers here. Add gamsimbre to the TO section too!

[Cheery Dog]

Still going on the theory that I can only buzz in when I don't know the answer.

(didn't know 5, would have got 6 had I been here to answer)

[Tatsuya Kaname]

Aronis didn't respond, so let's go with the other two.

xRECKONERx - 1
Cheery Dog - 2

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

[Tatsuya Kaname]

xRECKONERx got it again!

Do it, Reck!

Limbo

Da Da Da Limbo! Pick up another vault!

[xRECKONERx]

1

[gamsimbre]

Let's see what's in 1...

Opens Vault 1 gently...

*Found a hefty bundle of cash*

$2,000

!!!

And that gives you a great lead!

Round - 1		Remaining - $19,000		Clock - 0:18

$3,500 means you will play in Round 2 if you leave now. Although, you have been on a hot streak. With 18 seconds left, would you like to try for some more cash, or leave?

[gamsimbre]

Don't mind this post...just curious about something ^_^

[gamsimbre]

Dice tag scandal!

I don't know about you guys, but they always seem to bring back 1.

So, Tatsuya Kaname from now on can we use the more reliable random.org and post our rolls here instead?


Sorry I didn't catch this sooner guys

[Tatsuya Kaname]

Agreed. Random.org looks better.

[xRECKONERx]

The first roll in 56 showed a 2 though?

Also, I'll leave the box.

[gamsimbre]

ehhhh true - it just seemed like there were so many 1's that it broke the laws of probability.


But on to more important things - xRECKONERx, welcome to round 2! You may sit and relax as we find out which 2 players will be joining you.


Aronis and Cheery Dog - $2,500 is the target number. Let's find out who's going through!

Only 12 seconds left so we need to be hurry, here's the next question.

[Tatsuya Kaname]

I'm still using dice tag until I am told to do random.org.

1 - Aronis
2 - Cheery Dog

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (2) = 2

[Tatsuya Kaname]

Yay, it's not 1!

Cheery Dog got it now...

I'm willing to make a wrong guess again this time.

Estonia City

*buzz* We're at Estonia, not Mexico!

Aronis stole the buzzer...

Tallin

And that's what we needed!

Keep in mind, it's just 6 seconds remaining. This vault pick can affect the results.

[Cheery Dog]

of course it wasn't a 1, you put me at 2 and I didn't know the answer.

[Aronis]

I'll pick #16

[gamsimbre]

Time to open up sweet 16...

Opens Vault 16 gently...

*Found a bundle of cash*

$1,500

!

Nice work Aronis!

Big decision on your hands right here! I'll give you all the details...You can stay and try to increase your score. However, if Cheery Dog answers correctly, he will be given the opportunity to leave

even if he picks a vault containing $0

. So basically if both of you are in for the final question, whoever gets it right first moves on to Round 2.

Of course your other option is to leave right now and see if Cheery Dog can beat or tie your score.

What do you think?

[Aronis]

Leave!

[Tatsuya Kaname]

Aronis leaves with $1,500!

Now, Cheery Dog, inorder to stay in this game, you need to get this question right AND pick up at least $1,500; which there are 7 vaults here that can do that.

Cheery Dog, no need to PM. Here comes your next question. The time starts again... now!

[Cheery Dog]

skyscraper.

Number 12 and leave the vault.

[Tatsuya Kaname]

Yes, you got it!

Now, anything lower than $1,500 will send you home. $1,500 will do a tiebreaker, but $2,000 will take you to Round 2 and send Aronis home.

Is it?

Opens Vault 12 gently...

Found... some air inside...

Oh, no. There's nothing in Vault 12!

Sorry, Cheery Dog, your game ends here, thanks for playing with us. You've proven you're one of the best game show competitors of mafiascum!

Here's the rest of Vaults...

And we'll be right back when these three remaining players will be playing round 2, this time with Steals!

[gamsimbre]

Welcome to Round 2 players! As we take a look at the scores, reck is leading with $3,500. However, puzzledan and Aronis are right on his heels! We've refilled the vaults with another $25,000 to take! In addition, five vaults contain the word STEAL. If you manage to find one of these vaults, you may take one bundle of cash from the opponent (who hasn't left the safe yet) of your choice.

With all that in mind, let's play the Bank Job!
