New board spaces on Press Your Luck

[walker7]

If you could some up with some ideas for new spaces on the Press Your Luck board, what would they be?


Examples:

Triple Your $$ + One Spin: Self-explanatory.

Really Big Bucks: This would give you the total of all the cash squares currently showing on the board.

More like a little tweak for the modern era: Have "Add-a-One" in the second round as well as the first.

whammy block this blocks the whammy from taking all your stuff, and can only be used once, the whammy is still added to your total.

Catch up. + a spin Go $1 ahead of the person in 1st place, only appears on the board if you're not in first,

Make a Jackpot space with $5,000 + $100 for each day it isn't hit.

A "Whammy Bank" space. All money lost to the Whammy is added to a jackpot and when someone lands on this space (in the second round), he or she gets that money (barring future Whammies or losing the game, of course). The space is then replaced by a prize space. Unlike the Todd Newton version of PYL, no question needs to be answered.

big bank redeux, anyone?

Make a Jackpot space with $5,000 + $100 for each day it isn't hit.

Not enough if it's adding only $100 per day not hit. Make it $5,000+ $500 each SPIN it isn't hit, and it carries over to the next show if not hit at the end. Plus, make it available for the 2nd round only.

Ludia can make new board spaces on the 3rd edition video system of Press Your Luck.

Apparently, I found out that JC is not creating any more games after TPIR: Decades. Unless someone else working for Ludia is considering a future release of Press Your Luck or some other Fremantle-owned show.

On BigJon's Whammy!, there were quite a lot of interesting spaces. Here are some of them:

"Board Speedup": The bouncing light around the board goes twice as fast.

"Board Slowdown": The bouncing light around the board goes twice as slow.

"Random Square": Moves the bouncing light to any random square on the board.

"Mystery ?": Once stopped on, it can turn into anything.

"Whammy Infestation": Increases the number of Whammies on the board approximately threefold, thereby increasing the danger of hitting a Whammy.

"Whammy-Be-Gone": Eradicates all Whammies from the board for the next spin. This creates a safety net.

"Invincible": Protects you from the next Whammy that you hit. Similar to the "Whammy Guard" in one of the "Whammy!" pilots.

"Crazy Squares": For the next few spins, unusual things such as "$1," "$50," "Quintuple Your $$ + One Spin," "Switch $$ w/Player 2 (or 3)" appear on the board.

"Broken Square": Nothing happens. Think of it as one of those glitchy, empty, black spaces that appeared on very early episodes of "Press Your Luck."

"Whammy + One Spin": Acts as a normal Whammy, but does not consume a spin.

"10x Next Spin": Multiplies whatever you land on in the next spin by 10.

"Malfunction": The scoreboards display random 6-digit numbers, usually from $400,000 to $600,000.

"Take All Prizes": You get every prize currently showing on the board at the time you stopped it.

"Press Your Luck Glitch": It is shown as the logo for the classic "Press Your Luck" with "Glitch" under it. What do you think this would do?

And the ever-popular "$1,000,000"! That's right, one million dollars. And what about "Pay the IRS?"

Here are some more of BigJon's spaces:

"Earned to Passed": Converts all your earned spins to passed spins. There could also be a "Passed to Earned" space, as well.

"$1470": Think the $470 space, but with $1000 added to it.

"Pass a Whammy": Lets you pass one of your Whammies (if you have any) to an opponent.
