Hello guys!
Wheel is certainly one of my favourite game shows at the minute, so I thought 'why not try another RPG?'.
The rules of this game are simple, it's basically a glorified hangman. In case any potential players aren't sure how to play, I will explain a little more once we get into the game. For the meantime, I need any potential contestants to please complete the audition test at the bottom of this post. The 3 highest scorers will get to play first. (If there is a tie, fastest responder will win) All you have to do is fill in the following puzzles via PM. I will give you any occurrences of vowels, but you must fill in the consonants. Spellings are crucial. It goes without saying, but please try and do these on your own. I'll allow the use of pen and paper to jot things down, but please do not use online puzzle solvers. Good luck!
I have decided against an audition test, as nobody seems to be too interested in it. Instead I’ll just do the first 3 players to post here with an interest.

I feel a little bit nervous, but I'm ready to play. And yes, it's been seven years (plus one month) since I joined the forum.

You know seven years is really a long time when you think about it... The world was a different place, I mean UK Millionaire still had ordinary people playing for a bit! *Audience laugh* Well, good luck today, @paolo16gula. At the Yellow podium today is JCEurovision. He hails from the Philippines. Are shows like Wheel of Fortune part of what you're good at, or do you prefer the trivia-based genre, like Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? |

Yes. Apart from game and quiz shows, I am also a fan of the Eurovision Song Contest, which I started following it since 2009. Also, I am leaning towards a fan of basketball, but more on hockey, soccer, and the Olympics.
Right now, I am currently a part-time employee at a non-profit organization in Quezon City, and I have plans to take the LET by March next year.

That all sounds very interesting, hopefully we'll have some sporting puzzles that'll suit your tastes today. I don't know what the LET is, but I take it that it's some kind of exam, so good luck for that. Our third contestant today is Dragonman 2455 , how are you doing? It says here that you've won a quarter of a million on another gameshow before, so I hate to break it to you, but it's really quite difficult to win the million here. *Audience laugh* So, what are you interested in? Do you think you'll do well today? |

Ah chess, I've always loved a good game of chess. However, today we're here to play Wheel, so on that note, let's get on with the game. This is going to be our wheel for round 1:  PLEASE NOTE: Wheel wedge graphics made by MarioGS and Wheelgenius of the buyavowel boards.
Our top dollar value for this round is $2,500. A few other things that could do with explaining include our Free Play wedge. This wedge will allow you to have a free guess at any consonant, vowel or consonant. You'll get $500 for any consonants that are in the puzzle, but no money for vowels. Unlike the other spaces, if you give a wrong letter then you keep your turn. The Million Dollar Wedge is a wedge that you can pick up, and you have to take it to the bonus round to try and win it. It does have two small Bankrupts either side of it, so be careful! Free Spin is like Free Play but in token form, meaning you can hand it in to save your turn. Round 1 is our Jackpot Round. The jackpot starts at $5,000 and increases by whatever you land on. Land on the Jackpot wedge and then solve the puzzle, and you'll win the jackpot. We also have our Wild Card, a token that will allow you to guess another consonant for the same value as your last spin, or can give you an extra consonant in the bonus round. A bankrupt will mean you lose all your cash and tokens won in the current round. The last thing we need to explain is our Prize. Mr. Announcer, please tell our players what today's prize is! Announcer: Well MLUK, tonight's contestants will really want to grab that Prize wedge and win a brand new car! *audience ooh* That's right, a brand new set of wheels can be yours if you simply pick up the wedge and not lose it! This prize is valued at $9,500! *Audience applauds* Certainly one to look out for. Our first puzzle category tonight is Character and Actor. *Puzzle appear jingle plays* _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ CHARACTER & ACTOR
BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTVWXYZ AEIOUJust to be clear, here we're looking for a famous actor alongside a character they've played, either on the big screen or the small screen. @paolo16gula, you'll start us off. Please say 'Spin' or something similar and give a number between 1 and 24 to determine the strength of your spin. |

That lands you on the green $500. What letter would you like to guess?
