| Host: Will Jarmon Announcer: Jim Williams Gametime: Weekends Gameplay: The second version of Pyramid to come to Yahoo!, Jarmon's game plays towards the 1980s version of "The (New) $25,000 Pyramid" hosted by Dick Clark. Players must convey 7 clues in regard to a category to their partners in 60 seconds or less. In round 1, a 7-11 is played where if the contestant gets all 7 words in 60 seconds, they win $1,100. In round 2, the mystery 7 is played where a description of the category is not told. If the contestant gets all 7 words in 60 seconds, they win a bonus prize. Then they can guess what the 7 words all describe for an additional $1,000. Highest score after all 6 categories are played in a round goes to the Winner's Circle for $10,000 ($25,000 if the same contestant goes twice). In the event of a tie, players will describe words that begin with a certain letter. Whoever gets all 7 words quicker wins a berth into the Winner's Circle. And, of course if a perfect score of 21-21 occurs, the person that wins the tiebreaker in addition to winning a berth in the Winner's Circle wins $5,000. In the winner's circle one person gives a list of words that correspond to a subject, in essence the opposite of the front game. The aim is to get your partner to the top of the pyramid in 2 minutes or less to earn the money. Using prepositional phrases or words synonymous to the key word in the subject you're describing is forbidden and forfeits the chance at the big money that round. Interesting notes in YIM New $25,000 Pyramid: No better choice for theme than the original $25k theme by Bob Cobert. Will Jarmon considers himself to be the Dick Clark of Internet City Games, because like Mr. Pyramid, he gets fidgety with numbers, but keeps his cool, hence he's a perfect fit for this update of a classic game. |
