Ca$h Cab (Jelly, Bowser, SC)

[ForWhomTheJellyRolls]

I have no idea. I feel like this is going to be obvious but I just can't think of it at the moment.

[Salamence20]

Why is there no Street Shout-Out?

[lilith2013]

I thought it was probably unrealistic to include street shout-outs logistically. I'd have to hope people who aren't playing would read the game and answer the question--and I'm new enough that I don't know what to expect in that regard--or ask site chat and wait around for an answer (and I'm usually not on a computer, so being able to get on site chat in the first place is rare for me).

[Salamence20]

Well, Red cant say I didnt try to save him.

/Queue

[lilith2013]

If you think it'll work, I'm definitely open to making a change.

Red, STD, and Jelly, you still have

(expired on 2015-10-24 18:28:32)

to answer. Even just guessing is better than no answer! And remember, you already have one strike. Two more and I'll have to kick you out of the cab.

distance sport, I missed that so i'm going to go out on a limb and say ballroom dancing is a bad choice

i mean the only frame of reference I have is a Malcolm in the Middle episode I watched a billion years ago where Hal takes up powerwalking and catches someone cheating because they introduced a hop into their step. I could see it be ridiculed, too, I'm just not sure if that's an olympic sport.

I'd feel bad if Red knows the answer and he invited us into his cab just for me to get this one wrong but here goes nothin'

Speed Walking

[lilith2013]

And that answer brings you to

$150

! That's it for the $50 questions, the next few questions will be a little harder and worth $100 each.

We have 34 blocks to go, and I'll post your next question when I get home.

Speed Walking

There you go.

[lilith2013]

And here's your first $100 question:

Invented by accident in 1942, Cyanoacrylate is the major ingredient in what type of fast-acting glue?

You have (expired on 2015-10-26 15:33:47) remaining to answer.

Spoiler: Map update

[Save The Dragons]

In my mind power walking == speed walking, I just thought speed walking might be a more technical term for it.

also...superglue? what else could it be

[RedCoyote]

STD IS THE KING CABBIE

Lol, I had no idea about that one. I kept going back to curling.

For this one, I think superglue is probably the best bet. What does brother Jelly have to say?

[ForWhomTheJellyRolls]

The only other thing I can think of is Gorilla Glue, but I don't really know. Superglue makes sense.

[RedCoyote]

Let's go with...

SUPERGLUE

[lilith2013]

Nice! That brings your total to

$250

. We're still 35 blocks away, and..

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

[lilith2013]

That's a green light so we ripped through the intersection, and here's your next $100 question:

Famous for its soy sauce, what Japanese food company has been controlled by the Mogi family for 17 generations?

You have (expired on 2015-10-26 19:51:55) to answer.

[Save The Dragons]

I know Kikoman's been a company for a long time (though actually I think many Japanese companies have been in business for generations) but I think it's Kikoman and I'm not spelling that right.

[lilith2013]

Spelling won't count, as long as I can understand what you're trying to say it's fine.

[RedCoyote]

KIKOMAN

[lilith2013]

Yes! That gives you another $100 and now you're at

$350

!

Next intersection coming up..

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

[lilith2013]

Green light again. 33 blocks to go, here's your next question for $100:

Written by Michael Dobbs, what 1989 novel was adapted into two different political drama TV series by BBC and Netflix?

You have (expired on 2015-10-27 02:21:55) to answer.

[Save The Dragons]

That's got to be House of cards, right?

[ForWhomTheJellyRolls]

House of Cards

[lilith2013]

And you're at

$450

!

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (2) = 2

[lilith2013]

32 blocks to go and we're at a red light, so that means..

Red Light Challenge!!

Here's your question, worth $250:

Mandarin Chinese is the most commonly spoken language in the world. Name five of the top ten most commonly spoken languages other than Chinese.

You can give a total of 10 guesses over the course of the next 48 hours. I'll try to let you know as soon as possible whether each guess is correct. Guess away!
