You can look at last game, so you get a better understanding, I think it starts about 10pages back. But basically you show up on time, say your here when roll call starts, and then it goes from there. Wheel of fortune looked like a real fun one outside of device view ability issues. They will tell you what your playing and how to when they have everyone there. I just looked at the past games myself (I'm a visual/hands on learner so I need to see examples)... This is happening on one of my hatch days, so we'll see if I can do both lol

WHEEL OF FORTUNE
How to play in a nutshell: A phrase is displayed showing a line for each letter and extra spaces between words. A player guesses a letter. If that letter is in the phrase, every occurrence of that letter is displayed and the player gets to guess again. An incorrect guess and the player loses his turn.
Wheel of Fortune way of playing: Each correct letter guess earns the player a dollar amount, determined by spinning a wheel. The wheel also has spaces for “Bankrupt” and “Lose a Turn”. A player banks (keeps) the “cash” earned in a round if he correctly solves the phrase. The player with the most “cash” at the end of the playing session wins the prize.
How we play on BYC:
We will play for approximately two hours. Game time may be extended to accommodate system glitches, PC crashes, bathroom breaks, etc.
All players check in at start of game. Check in means the players post on the thread that they would like to play (“I’m here”, “count me in”, etc.) The host will put all the names in a hat and draw three contestants for the first round. Any newcomers can check in at any time to add their names to the hat. The first name drawn gets to play first. The second name drawn plays second. The third name drawn plays last. These same three players play the first round until one solves the puzzle. Then all three names get put back in the hat. The host tosses the names around to mix them up and draws three more names to play the next round. Players will be chosen randomly in this fashion throughout the gaming period. A player could be chosen to play more than one round.
For each round, the host will start the round by posting the category clue for the puzzle as well as the puzzle represented by one line for each letter, with punctuation already revealed, and each word being on its own line. The host will also post how many words are in the puzzle. Players please post if you cannot see all the “words”.
The host will spin the wheel and post the value of the first consonant.
The first contestant will post their consonant guess.
The host will reply back how many times that consonant appears in the puzzle and the value the contestant has “earned”. The contestant earns the value of the wheel multiplied by the number of times the consonant appears in the puzzle.
The host will update the puzzle and repost the puzzle showing all letters that have been correctly guessed.
The contestant then has approximately two minutes to study the puzzle and post their next action. The contestant will post whether they want to spin, buy a vowel, or try to solve the puzzle.
If the contestant wants to spin again, simply post “spin”. The host will spin the wheel and post the results. Play continues as above.
If the contestant wants to buy a vowel, simply post “buy E” for example. The host will deduct a flat $250 from the contestant’s accumulated earnings regardless of how many times the chosen vowel appears. Buying a vowel costs the contestant $250 even if the vowel does not appear in the puzzle. A contestant can only buy vowels if they have earned enough money. If the chosen vowel does not appear in the puzzle, contestant loses his turn and play moves to the next contestant.
If the contestant wants to solve the puzzle, simply post his guess what the answer is. The host will confirm if that guess is correct. If the guess is correct, the contestant “banks” what he has earned for that round. Other contestants’ points are zeroed out and a new round with new players is played. If the contestant incorrectly guesses the puzzle solution, he loses his turn.
A contestant must solve the puzzle in order to keep any points/cash accumulated during that round.
Values on the wheel range from $300 to $900. The wheel also had one $5,000 value, one “Lose a Turn”, and one “Bankrupt”. Control of the wheel passes to the next player if the wheel lands on Lose a Turn or Bankrupt, or if the player calls a letter that is not in the puzzle, calls a letter that has already been called, fails to call a letter within two minutes, or gives an incorrect answer. Bankrupt does not affect score banked from previous rounds.
The host will not keep track of incorrect letters called for each round.
By playing, you agree to pay a $25 fee if you win. Only the winner has to pay. Fees are used to cover postage and packing materials. Playing is free. You are welcome to play even if you don’t want to claim the prize. If you win, just let the host know you don’t want the prize, in which case no fee is required.

Because you posted pictures of of
Your AC I have to show you mine!!!
The next picture is of one cockerel and the one I am not sure is a hen or a another cockerel. Look at the tail feathers. Lol!
2 more boys. The one on the right is the straighter comb but the one on the left has the better feathering. Then Crusty in the lower left.
Here is a head shot of the straight comb.
