The best series on this forum that isn't one of the others is BACK! We're playing for £385,000... or more accurately, ARCHIE is!

Remember, like most of the great forum series, there are six rule variations up for random selection...



...and it's time to pick a number to decide which one gets used!

Alright! Looking forward to this, Game 4

I'm looking forward to it too...

The board is the same...

£10
£50
£100
£250
£500

£50,000
£75,000
£100,000
£385,000

...but Box 23 certainly isn't. It starts off with MONEY BACK, HALF, and NOTHING... but you get the chance to build on that by getting up to three positive options added on! You get three predictions at any point in the game, and every time you get within 10% of the Banker's offer, you get a positive option added in. If you get within 5%, you'll even get a choice of two - or three if you're ever on the nose!

No risk in the predictions, you can't make 23 any worse, and if it all goes wrong then the good news is that Box 23 is always optional unless you take an offer which forces its use. Or lack of use, for that matter.

Should be a fun contest here. Box 9 on the table, five others in round 1. Good luck!

16, 3, 2, 11, and 8 please!

Box 16 - £385,000!! Well... what can you say? That's brutal, but at least your hopes didn't get built up before they were crushed.

Box 3 - £100...

Box 2 - 50p! Nice couple of boxes there.

Box 11 - £5,000 isn't bad either...

Box 8 - £1!

Hopefully you've used up an awful lot of bad luck in one go here. You've certainly got stability going for you here...

...and with that stability comes, potentially, easier predictions! But will you use your first of three here?

I'll pass on the first prediction here thanks

Fair enough! Lets you see where the Banker is going first...

BANKER'S OFFER

£5,101.50

...and it's a whimsical offer to start, the sum of the four non-jackpot boxes you hit in that round! Deal or No Deal?

No Deal!

22, 5 and 1 please!

No surprise, and onto round 2 we go!

Box 22 - £10 keeps up the good run!

Box 5 - £50... wow, you really did use up all your bad luck at once it seems! ABR?

Box 1 - £50,000! Well, there goes that run. But it was fun while it lasted, and it lasted six boxes!

It's still a board that's more stable than strong...

...but May this be the time to use one of those predictions? Hopefully you can get within 10% if so, because cor, it's going in the bin if you don't...

OH. OH! I'm not going to stay conservative and hold back, I'll make a prediction.

PLAYER'S PREDICTION

£6,050

Straight in...

BANKER'S OFFER

£7,500

...but he was more liberal with the generosity than you expected, so that was a waste of your labour! Two predictions left of course. But for now... Deal or No Deal?

Well, still more opportunity to gain on 23. No Deal for now, thanks!

19, 18 and 15 please!

Well, we definitely want to add red and get rid of blue... maybe this game has a Labour bias?

Box 19 - 1p! The most useless blue of the lot, gone!

Box 18 - £250 and AGAIN we stand on the brink of the ABR...

Box 15 - £35,000! And AGAIN we hit a Power 5 for the sting in the tail instead!

Almost an action replay of the second round, and let's be honest, that's far from the worst thing you could have done there.

Last time, the offer went up by just under £2,500. That was a similar round. But will the Banker make a similar reaction to it? Up to you as to whether or not to predict here...

BANKER'S OFFER

£10,250.01

Yup, it's there! One prediction left, and one good option locked in... and by gosh it's a good option, it's TRIPLE!

With that enhanced money menu... Deal or No Deal?

Alrighty! It's another NO DEAL for now.

7, 6 and 20 please
