RACE TO A BILLION - REBIRTH - ROUND 28 [SIGNUPS WELCOME]

Normally that kind of link's a path to disaster...what's in 18?



What!? Where are these squares coming from!?







ROUND 3

Imationer: $22,250,000 (200% Boost, Math Time)
aidan9030: $43,535,000 (220% Boost)
DBHxgiga92: $25,000
vincentw: $125,000

We go back to aidan. We're starting to run out of squares now...

---

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

let's try square 8

---

Going in #8...



Well, ain't this interesting at this stage of the game! Let's see a list of exactly what we've got left to reveal!

-$200,000
30% BOOST
DIGITAL FORTRESS
MARKED FOR DEATH
SLIPSTREAM
BLAMMO
BOMB
BOMB







ROUND 3

Imationer: $22,250,000 (200% Boost, Math Time)
aidan9030: $43,535,000 (220% Boost)
DBHxgiga92: $25,000
vincentw: $125,000

Well, this certainly an interesting end to the round. We have all the good money gone, and really, the only squares you want are the minigame or the Marked for Death (and Slipstream, if you're Imationer). Anywhere else could spell disaster. What we do know are there are exactly two bombs left in the game. Imationer, if you hit that Slipstream, it's worth $5 million to you. Can you find it?

---

Oh damn.

Let's go for 14.

...you're not gonna believe this...but an old enemy is back.



*SIRENS*

That sound means that somebody from the Gallery has given you a Blammo! That's right, you'll have to pick a button at random (they're not marked...which adds to the fun!) The buttons will contain the following:

- Block the BLAMMO! (nothing happens)
- Eliminates you (with the standard bomb penalty)
- Eliminates an opponent (with the standard bomb penalty)
- Decreases your prize money (by 2%) whilst putting you into a Threshold Situation (a bomb will knock 20% off your total)

So, to stay in the game...pick a number:

---

Oh shit.

3 and let's hope it's the threshold at least.

Is the round over in 3? What's behind there?



You've just won the round! What an awful way to be eliminated, aiden, but...them's the breaks.



What was in the rest of the grid, incidentally?







ROUND 3

Imationer: $22,250,000 (200% Boost, Math Time)
aidan9030: $42,985,000
DBHxgiga92: $25,000
vincentw: $125,000
Of course, we have win bonuses to work out! Let's...

- You get a $10,000,000 win bonus that is untouched by boosters.
- You get a $1,000,000 bonus for every square remaining plus booster. That's 8 at 200%, so you get $16,000,000.

So, your win bonus is $26,000,000! Here comes the fun part...

You can now, if you like, put this money on the line. The money you previously won is safe. Nobody can take it from you. You can, however, risk to give your win bonus back, and open Square 99. This is a special square, in that there are 5 seperate squares inside, containing the following scenarios:

- DOUBLE: Your win bonus is doubled to $52,000,000!
- MONEY BACK: Your win bonus remains at $26,000,000!
- $25,000,000: Your win bonus becomes a flat $25,000,000!
- HALF: Your win bonus is cut in half to $13,000,000!
- $1: Your win bonus goes down to a measly dollar! But as a consolation, you do get a random Hidden Square for the next round.

Those are your possibilities for Square 00. For the first time, we are in a situation where you're more likely to come out with less than you started, but with your minigame left to play later, it's your choice to how you want to play this. So Imationer...with $26,000,000 on the table...will you take the Square, or the Stash?

---

I'll be boring and just take the stash. Don't want to play too risky this early.

What's Math Time, though?

Oh wow, you're the first person in THIRTEEN to not take the gamble! That extra money comes back, and it puts you in the lead on an amazing $48,250,000! But Math Time comes soon, and you get a chance to win more...or lose it. How? We'll be back in a couple minutes.

---

Someone not taking the risk is rare as fuck, wow.

Then again, so is someone's win bonus being over the flat 25 mil.

---

Right, it's time to play Math Time!

We play Math Time in FIVE rounds. The goal is to get the biggest equation, by picking the right square from each round. In each round we get the following:

Round 1: Cash, from $500k to $2.5m.
Round 2: 5 PLUSes, 2 MINUSes.
Round 3: Cash, from $100k to $1.5m.
Round 4: 4 TIMESes, 3 DIVIDEs.
Round 5: Numbers from 1-10.

You select one value from each round, we make a sum with it, and that is the amount of money you will win, and we're gonna multiply that by your 200% boost. Play this right, you're walking out of here with an extra $80 million. Mess it up, and it could cost you $20 million!

So, let's start with Round 1. Pick a number from 1-7!

---

Let's go 6, then.

Hot damn, that's almost the best possible start. You can't lose money from this game!



$2,000,000 [] [] [] [] =
Maximum win: $35,000,000 - Minimum win: $50,000

Right, round 2 is the operations. There are five plus signs, and two minus signs. If you want the mega money, you'd really want to see a plus here.

---

Let's take a 3 for this one.

Oof. Good thing the second cash round's lower.



$2,000,000 - [] [] [] =
Maximum win: $19,000,000 - Minimum win: $50,000

Round 3 is all about the second cash value, between $100k and $1.5 million. We really, really hope that you pick a low one.

---

Can't have 'em all I guess.

I'll go for 7 this time.

It's not too bad, I'd guess! You're currently at $1.6 million.



$2,000,000 - 400,000 [] [] =
Maximum win: $16,000,000 - Minimum win: $160,000

Round 4, and it's the big one. Four multipliers, three dividers. This is either a feast or a famine situation.

---

Aim for the middle of the pack.

4, please!

Oh damn, we're about to see a payday!



$2,000,000 - 400,000 [] [] =
Maximum win: $16,000,000 - Minimum win: $1,600,000

Final round, and you're looking for a multiplier. You pick the right one...and you're about to get mad rich.

---

Let's go for 1, because there isn't a 1 there...

...right?
