The dice weren't lucky this time
Just as a reminder, I'm unable to attend DenFur this year due to financial reasons.
While reading a Telegram chat for furry fans of game shows, I remembered that Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2015 had a game show theme. I responded to another fur who wanted to do The Price Is Right at RMFC. Back then, I didn't know there were computerized versions of the TPIR games available (Neither did the other fur, apparently.) My old-school mind had been searching the internet for sites to buy things to build the games from scratch like large dice, LED displays and materials for a "Big Wheel." I even downloaded music like the opening theme and the Cliffhangers' yodeling song. The fur later canceled his plans for the show.
I've dreamed about going on real game shows since I was a teenager. Unfortunately, I think I'm too old for what most shows are looking for now. I also don't have as much energy as I used to, so I'd probably seem boring to the producers and talent scouts.
