Has anyone senn the TV game show Press Your Luck? It's currently
on the Game Show network along with a brand new all new sequel-no reruns- titled Whammy. The original 1980's version used I believe
54 slide projectors rear projecting onto 18 screens at one of three 18 projector groups at a time. My idea for a online/offline parody
of this game is this:In place of money earned,including the amount
from non-free prizes,there would be instead a number of feet of film.
Free prizes won would include for example Film Guard,cleaning media rolls,etc. Trips won would for example include Show West,Show East & other locations Film-Techers visit,etc.
But watch out for the Film-Tech whammy,he'll take away all your earned non-free prizes & trips including all the feet of film you have earned & cause various problems with your theatre sound & projection equipment,etc. Four whammies & your'e out of the game.
Disclaimer:For amusement only,no actual items are given away/earned.
No actual problems result from this game.

Here's an example borrowed from the 80's PYL game show & parodied:
I spin, " Okay, gimme that Show West trip,no Film-Tech whammies!"
Hit stop button-"No Film-Tech whammies. STOP!" ****! Too late!
Oh,check out the various Press Your Luck sites by entering Press Your Luck in the search engines.
