ChuckWoolery : Darcy, because you're the Captain, you have the prerogative to change one wrong answer if you like
ChuckWoolery : you have Thimble, Top Hat, Cannon and Clothes Pin as answers
ChuckWoolery : do you want to change any of those?
Darcy10510 : I think I do. I think I'm going to change clothes pin to battleship.
ChuckWoolery : okay
ChuckWoolery : how do you feel about that, Buckish?

ChuckWoolery : I'm going to make you an offer
ChuckWoolery : if you're not sure about Battleship, I'll give you $20,000 to spit up amonst your team, just so you don't go home with nothing
ChuckWoolery : or you can risk it and see if Battleship is correct
ChuckWoolery : what's your decision?
Darcy10510 : I'm pretty sure that battleship is the correct answer. So I think we'll wrisk it.
ChuckWoolery : okay
ChuckWoolery : for $200,000!!!!
