Race to a Billion -EVOLUTION- [ROUND 10] (Sign Ups Closed)

Well #7 was unlucky so let's try double 7 or # Please.

Let's hope this turns out better. In 14...



That gets you on the board!







ROUND V

bmhedgehog: $275,000 (Threshold Situation: $55,000)
Spirit of Nightmare: $900,000
ledgam3r1279: -$150,000
DBHxgiga82: $62,305,000 (250% Boost)

Nightmare, you're back in the game. Can you break a million?

---

And here I was afraid I'd bomb out the first thing that happened. Anyway, no fear! Let's open up box number 22!

---

Let's see if you can get some good luck going...in 22...



OH WOW! For this round, you are IMMUNE to being bombed. If you hit a bomb, you will not receive a penalty! You can still be removed from the round by other means (BLAMMO!s or inactivity).

Bet you wish you wanted that, led...

---

Welp, it looks like we all know who's winning this round (with 99% certainty). With my luck, my next pick will probably be a bomb too.

. . . I want 22 ( / 2 = 11 ).

---

More than one can survive a round! Anyway, #11...



HOLY SHIT! WE HIT THE JACKPOT SQUARE! FINALLY! That's done WONDERS for your ranking!

DBHxgiga82: $62,305,000 (250% Boost)

Bet you wish you wanted that, DBH...

---

Oh, there's a lot that I want, but I'm fine for now.
Let's pick 18.

---

In 18 tonight...



DBH's hogging of the boost continues! 340% we're at now!

bm, we've had some properly good squares come out recently, can you continue the trend?

---

the fuck

Btw, Oni, I think you need to re-name the group as it says [ROUND 4] still.

---

Well 7 was crap, 14 was slightly better but not by much so I'll try my luck with Trip 7s or # Please.

Kinda regret not choosing button 4 during the blammo! sequence.

Hmm, let's look under 21...



Well, you don't win money, but you win something more powerful: information. Through PM, you get to ask me one question about the current round, and I must respond truthfully. There are a couple of ground rules: it has to be a yes/no answer, and nothing regarding another player's Hidden Squares.







ROUND V

bmhedgehog: $275,000 (Threshold Situation: $55,000)
Spirit of Nightmare: $900,000 (IMMUNE)
ledgam3r1279: $9,850,000
DBHxgiga82: $62,305,000 (340% Boost)

Nightmare, you have immunity, and you're about $1m off the top ten. Can you get in there?

---

Oh, the luck I've had during this game, and then I tend to have a lot of misfortune in general, and here's the exception. Well, anyway.

Nummer tio! (Swedish for "number ten")

---

In 10 today...



It's not much, but it is money.







ROUND V

bmhedgehog: $275,000 (Threshold Situation: $55,000)
Spirit of Nightmare: $1,100,000 (IMMUNE)
ledgam3r1279: $9,850,000
DBHxgiga82: $62,305,000 (340% Boost)

led, still on a high after that massive jackpot scoop. What can you do?

---

Well, now that I've gone and literally hit the jackpot, I wouldn't feel too bad if I bombed out now. Still, more money would be nice right about now too.

17

---

Please forgive me for posting out of turn here. I just need a rule clarification...


By that you mean I can't ask for bomb locations, right?

Also do I have to use the "Lifeline" ASAP or can it be held? I'm taking the time to think of a good question.

I can't access the Big TXT File so I can't process anyone's turn right now, but I logged in just to answer this one:

Yes, bomb locations are not hidden squares, so they're fair game. Remember that I can only give a Yes/No answer, so good luck thinking of a bomb-related question that will actually teach you anything.

Also whilst there's no rule against holding on to your question, it's a bit dodgy. I'll allow it, but I'll look at you awkwardly and occasionally tut disapprovingly whilst you ask.

---

This being the British approach.

---

Right, led wanted 17.



...quite the hoarder you're becoming! Another huge cash grab!







ROUND V

bmhedgehog: $275,000 (Threshold Situation: $55,000)
Spirit of Nightmare: $1,100,000 (IMMUNE)
ledgam3r1279: $14,350,000
DBHxgiga82: $62,305,000 (340% Boost)

And another one that DBH might have wanted... Still, lots of goodness left in, but no bombs revealed yet, where to?

---

Let's go for... 13, I guess. Keep my selection trail going.

P.S. 10 hasn't been updated on the board.
