These games will be played in real time, and you will in fact be on the BN PIR stage!! When I complete the details for your stage games, I will send each of you a PM so we can work out a time when you and I both have 5 minutes to spend on BN. Congratulations and great bidding!

Here are the stage games that each of you will be playing. Minor details may change in order to accomodate the fact that this is being played on a discussion board. Winning your stage game will earn you 2 points and should be a lot of fun.

Myke212, you will be playing "Grand Game"

Six grocery items are described to the contestant. Four of the items are under a target figure in price and two are over. The contestanst will choose 3 items, if the contestant's choices are all under the target price, 2 points will be awarded.

MalibuRumGirl, you will be playing "Grocery Game"
Five grocery items are displayed. The contestant may chose any or all of the items in whatever quantity he/she desires in an attempt to come within $2 of $21 without going over. Once an item has been priced, it cannot be used again. The running total is kept on a cash register.

BahamaBreeze, you will be playing "Buy or Sell"

The contestant is shown three prizes with wrong prices on them. He/She must determine if the price is either too high or too low for that prize. If the player thinks it's too high, he/she "sells" the prize. If the contestant thinks the price is too low he/she "buys" the prize. If the contestant makes money on the buying and selling of the prizes, he/she wins 2 points.

Yay! I feel so special

Congrats MRG &BB

Nope, unfortunately I have not run off with beautiful women, nor I have been controlling the pet population, although both are excusable absences.

I am still working on our little beta version of PIR. I have been a tad busy with other distractions, but I find it funny that I am checking prices in grocery stores in order to make sure that the online prices I am finding are fair enough for this game play.

This game will continue! The three that have qualified for the "stage" games will be playing soon. There will be a few changes after that, but just play along patiently until I can find the best format for all the BN gamers!!!

Sorry all for the extended commercial break, this was a little more preparation than I thought it would be!

Bahama Breeze, Hello! Come on down! (up?)

Oh Bob...I must give you a kiss first....

Can I ask the audience for help?

BB your playing "grocery game" I'll post 6 products, 4 are under a target price and 2 are over. You pick 3, if all 3 that you pick are under the target price, you win your stage game!

The target price is $3.99

You'll have only 2 minutes to post your 3 product names once I show you them.

Any questions?

Not for a total...just pick the 3 that are less than 3.99...got it.

Yes you can get help from the audience, but I'm putting very short time limits to deter players from "googling".
