Hello, everyone, and welcome to another Guild OOC Game of the Mermaid Princess RP Guild!

The Game is played with 3 Players, each starting with a Bankroll Score of $20 and they would build up their score by answering General Knowledge Questions. Correct Answers were worth $5 while incorrect answers cost $5. After a few questions, an instant bargain would be shown as like the Fame Board, 3 are shown each game.

Instant Bargains gave the player in the lead to buy prize...
The player would then be present with the offer and its starting discount cost. The Host would then add additional offers such as Reduced Cost or a Cash Bonus. If the Player chooses to buy the prize, it was theirs regardless of the outcome but a Player can choose not to do so if he or she wanted which left his or her score unchanged. If there was a tie between 2-3 players, then the player who rang in won the item.

After the Instant Bargain and Instant Cash Segments, more Questions are asked then came the Fame Game.
The Host would then present clues to a person, place or thing with more detail as the question was read. A Wrong answer would lock that player out for the remainder of the question with no score penalties. A Correct answer would have the player pick one of 9 spaces on the Fame Board. Each had 3 Space Types, Money Cards that add to the Score, Cash Bonuses or Prizes.
The Money Cards came in $10, $15 or $25 values.

The remaining questions were asked after that and in 1984 was the Speed Round. After that, the player with the highest score wins the game.

In the Sales Room, the player can use their score to buy prizes depending on what they won in the Base Game to End their game or Return to Play Again by Depositing their Current Score.
