That's right, everypony, from the TV screen, to the con scene, to wp.net, it's Press Your Luck!

The object of the game, for those who have NOT seen the show:

Quote:

The show is divided in two parts: Two question rounds, with two big board rounds in between. I will ask four questions, and a correct buzz in spin nets you three spins, a correct multiple choice answer, one spin. Those spins can be used on the Press Your Luck big board, with thousands of $ and lots of prizes; but on a few squares, there are whammies; get one, and kiss your winnings goodbye; four of them means you're a goner.

I'll take the first three players to reply to this thread. You will have one day to respond to me. A non-response in that time frame results in three strikes; get three, and you will be replaced. Just trying to get the game going, not trying to be mean.

So, with that said, everypony, are you ready to PRESS! YOUR! LUCK?

Not 100% sure what this is. But if you need a third player still, I'll try it.

Alrighty! We have our three players........ and let's dive right into it.

In American football, what is the name of the position that snaps the ball to the quarterback?

Alrighty; skylie says it's the center. If she is right, she will get three spins, and the other two will have a chance by guessing from two other choices, and getting it right nets them one spin.

Is it......

THE CENTER
THE CORNERBACK
THE RIGHT TACKLE

Yes, the snapper is almost always the center.

I don't think games like this work on the internet. Mainly because more than half the people just google for the answers. :lol:

Probably. It might work better if the questions were something that couldn't just be looked up online. Like, more than one-word terminology answers?

Also, I thought I sent "center" in a PM to you, equestriatola, because I didn't know we were supposed to put the answers here. BUT, my inbox says I never sent anything, so I don't know what happened.

Anyhow, my answer was "Center".
