I just want the tokens/wedges to be readable. I don’t have time to make it super fancy though.

It actually looks pretty nice. By the way, you wouldn't mind posting a picture of the Wheel without the add-ons, would you? I'd be interested in seeing that.

I’ve made some minor changes to the wheels.  Round 3 (Mystery Round)  Jackpot Round (Round 2)  Round 1 (10000 Round)  Blank Round 1  Blank Round 2 Now you may be thinking, what is the vowel card doing here? Well I’ll explain. Vowels cost $500 in my games so a vowel card is worth $1000 of vowels. A player can hand it in at any point of the game and can call two uncalled vowels during the game. They can’t hand it once all of the vowels are gone. If the person has that card at the end of the game, he adds $500 to his score and can rake it to the BR if he wins the game for an additional vowel. |

Hi again! I'm on Spring Break, so for my own games with the wheel, here are some rules that I will establish.
Gameplay will be based on the season 24 rules (10000-Jackpot-Mystery) with a few changes:
• Only 2 Tossups will be played (Determines who stars R1 & R4)
• The vowel card is playable
• Free Spin is an Actual Wedge (Plays like the wedge from the early days of Wheel.) However, you do need to guess a correct letter.
• Vowels cost $500
• Prize Puzzles will happen (Albeit not in every game)
• Bonus Categories (Includes Normal categories that have a bonus question) and Crosswords will appear as well (Also not in every game. They will appear one time if they are in play.)
• Some wedges would be upped up in R4.
• The winning player would choose from 3 categories to play in the Bonus Round (1 word BRs will be more frequent).

That would be awesome If I could create a wheel like that  My dad ordered a cheap o wheel and drilled in some holes for the extra wedges. The rest was on me. |

Here’s some additional rules that I forgot to add: Each tossup is worth 2 grand. Surprise is the game’s featured prize. Only one gift tag in play. Also, here’s my self-created scoreboard:  |

Sorry for bumping this thread, but I finally got to host my own WOF game at home! This game was a quick version. I'll have the layover: Round 1: $10,000 Round Round 2: Jackpot Round Round 3: Speed-Up Bonus Round Also, I won't do SURPRISE. The daily prize, however, acts as a surprise. I'll provide a recap. I didn't record the game, so I'll just put key details about it. From a nice, comfy home in Yorba Linda, it's Game Set and Match week on WHEEL! OF! FORTUNE! Today's contestants: FaithPaulina
Today's Gift Tag comes from Dick's Sporting Goods! Also, from this game forward, I put a nifty VOWEL CARD on the wheel. It's basically $1000 worth of free vowels. If you hold it till the end of the game, $500 gets added to your score and you get to take that thing into the bonus round for an extra vowel (if you win of course)!$10,000 Round: Food & Drink
S A U S A G E - A N D - P E P P E R H E R O E S Solved by Paulina for $8,900 in cash and Dick's Sporting Goods gift tag.
Notes: - Paulina first mis-solved the puzzle as SAUSAGE-AND-PEPPER HERBS when the vowels were only remaining. Turn got back to her as Faith didn't know the puzzle either. It's a more obscure Food & Drink to both players.
JACKPOT Round: Proper Name:
G O L D E N / S T A T E W A R R I O R S Solved by Paulina for $1,600 and the VOWEL CARD. She also picked up the CHICAGO CUBS prize package so she gets to (fictionally) go to a hotel in Chicago of her choice. She also gets two tickets (best seats) to a Chicago Cubs game, plus souvenirs from the Chicago Cubs. That prize package was worth $8,500! She earned $10,100 in cash and goodies alone!Pre-Round 3 Scores:Faith: NOTHINGPaulina: $19,000 cash and goodies + VOWEL CARD.Round 3: Show Biz (Full $1,600 Speed-Up Round)
L I V E / R A D I OB R O A D C A S TSolved by Faith for her first and only $3,200.End Totals:Faith: $3,200Paulina: $19,500 cash and goodies + VOWEL CARD.
Yep, you read that right, Paulina is the first contestant in my games to take the VOWEL CARD to the Bonus Round! I never thought that this would happen in my FIRST GAME. But she still needs to pick from three categories to play in the Bonus Round: Thing
Around The House
Rhyme Time
She will go for AtH. $100,000 BONUS ROUND:
Paulina's solid performance in the main game doesn't earn her a trophy. Instead, she has these prizes that she could hope to win: - 2019 Honda Ridgeline
- 2019 Toyota Avalon
- Cash ($25,000 - $50,000)
- The BIG ONE ($100,000)
She lands on the R in BR and her category (what she chose) is Around The House. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ RSTLNE Help: _ _ _ _ _ R _ _ E N _ _ HCDA O are very good picks: O A _ _ O R _ _ E N C H She easily solves OAK WORKBENCH for the Honda Ridgeline worth $38,900! Final total: $58,400 in cash and prizes! |

I did another game today. Like the last game, this was the quick version. I also didn't record this one. From a nice, comfy home in Yorba Linda, it's Salute to Atlanta week on WHEEL! OF! FORTUNE! Today's Contestants: FaithPaulina
Today's gift tag comes from Nordstrom! And the lovely $10,000 wedge is ready for action in round 1.
$10,000 Round: Phrase
T H I N K / T W I C E
B E F O R E / Y O U
S P E A K
Solved by Paulina for $1,300 and the VOWEL CARD. She didn't reach the house minimum of $1,500, so she got a $200 raise (I didn't notify this in my game though).
Pre-Round 2 Scores:
Faith: FREE SPIN
Paulina: $1,500 + VOWEL CARD
Of course, the lovely JACKPOT wedge is always ready for action as we approach the next round!
JACKPOT Round: Landmark
T H E / W O R L D / O F
C O C A - C O L A
Solved by Faith for $8,600.
Notes:
- In the middle of the round, Paulina spun a BANKRUPT, so her VOWEL CARD got taken away
- Faith used her FREE SPIN in the middle of the round after a bad letter call.
- The unclaimed JACKPOT was worth $11,500.
Pre-Round 3 Scores:
Faith: $8,600
Paulina: $1,500
Round 3: The 70's (Full $1,600 Speed-Up Round)
A M E R I C A N
G R A F F I T I
Solved by Paulina for $6,400.
Note: Unfortunately, Paulina got too excited to solve. When turn came over to her with the G missing, she just wanted to solve anyway, forgetting the fact that she passed up on free money (kind of a recurring problem towards amateur WOF players). She lost by $700 as you can see here.
End Totals:
Faith: $8,600
Paulina: $7,900
Since Faith won the game, she gets to choose from three categories to play for in the Bonus Round:
Phrase
Thing
Rhyme Time
She chooses Thing.
$100,000 BONUS ROUND:
Here are the list of prizes Faith could (fictionally) earn in this bonus round:
- 2018 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack
- 2018 Chevy Malibu
- Cash ($25,000 - $50,000)
- THE BIG ONE ($100,000)
She lands on the W and her category (what she chose) is Thing.
_ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
RSTLNE Help:
_ _ _ _
_ E _ _ _ T
CADM (She tried to pick R after choosing A) only offers the vowel at the first word:
_ A _ _
_ E _ _ _ T
And she had No Chance of solving BABY WEIGHT (she made a non-sensical guess of BICYCLE HELMET) for the Volkswagen Golf Alltrack, so she leaves with just her JACKPOT round winnings. |

I forgot to add this to today's game:
After Game Chat: Me and Paulina discuss what would've happened if Faith chose Rhyme Time. Also, around 7-10 years (approx) ago, BGHO were the best letters to call in the Bonus Round. I don't know what the best letter combination is right now, but I have a gut feeling that it might be CBPA G.

So I've hosted another game and this time, it's a full-length one! I decided to host one since some family members were staying over for the night. It was a VERY messy game (there was too much yelling  ), but some people came up BIG! Toss Up 1: Occupation (one-liner)A B A R T E _ _ _ R Faith and Farah both blow it (one of the guesses from them was A BARISTA). Sarah then has the opportunity to answer A BARTENDER for $2,000.
$10,000 Round: Odd One OutSo, this is a new category. Once the player solves, he/she has to identify the item that doesn't fit among the rest.' P U E B L O' D U R A N G O' B O U L D E R' L U B B O C KSarah filled in the entire puzzle for $13,500 cash and Best Buy (gift tag). She DIDN'T identify that the Odd One Out was LUBBOCK (She thought it was BOULDER instead).Pre-Round 2 Scores:Sarah: $15,200 cash and Best BuyEveryone Else: Yelling won't get you anywhere.JACKPOT Round: Before & After_ _ A L _ T Y T _ M E_ F D A YFarah solved QUALITY TIME OF DAY for $7,650. There were some ugly turns though.- Earlier in the round, Farah lost $12,350 in cash and Seattle trip to a BANKRUPT.
- UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $17,150
Pre-Round 3 Scores:
Farah: $7,650
Sarah: $15,200 cash and Best Buy
Faith: Still no money
MYSTERY Round: Phrase
T H R E E !
T W _ !
_ N E !
L _ F T _ F F !
With vowels left (I didn't sound them because she was too eager to solve), Farah solved THREE! TWO! ONE! LIFTOFF! for $2,200.
Pre-Tossup 2 Scores:
Farah: $9,850
Sarah: $15,200 cash and Best Buy
Faith: No Luck
Toss Up 2: Fictional Characters
P _ _ _ E A S &
_ E R _
Sarah sweeps the Tossups by identifying the stepbrothers PHINEAS & FERB.
Round 4: Food & Drink (Also a $1,300 Speed-Up Round)
_ A K E D
S A U S A G E
Another sort of agonizing round, Farah gobbles up some BAKED SAUSAGE for $1,300 + a $200 bonus ($1,500 is the house minimum solve).
End Totals:
Farah: $9,850
Sarah: $17,200 cash and Best Buy
Faith: $1,000 GooseEgg
Sarah is the winner of this game, so she will get to play the Bonus Round! She has to pick a category for the picking though.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
AROUND THE HOUSE
THING
She chooses ATH.
$100,000 BONUS ROUND
Now in the winner's circle, she can win a Camaro, a Mustang, or cash up to $100,000!
Sarah spins the wheel up to the T.
Category: Around The House
_ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
RSTLNE:
_ _ _ _ _
S _ _ E _ _ _
DMKA (I really thought she was going to go for the ol' CDMA.):
_ _ _ _ D
S _ _ E _ _ _
Another very hard puzzle it is. She doesn't get either part of VIVID SHOEBOX for the MUSTANG. $17,200 cash and Best Buy
is still a nice haul though (And there was no Prize Puzzle!).
Also, at this point, the bonus wheel has not landed on the cash amounts yet! It seems like my Bonus Wheels want to keep the money.
