How do you know it's Sunday?
Because it's when a new game of Skyline and NoelsFan's series is guaranteed to be posted.

And... it's time for another game of...

DEAL OR NO DEAL

Noel: Let's talk about a few days ago. What a disappointing game for poor George. He dealt at a sum he felt was right for him... but it wasn't. He could have been the first ten-millionaire of the game, but he dealt too early.
But enough of that now, let's welcome...

HAL.

Hal is a nerd tortoise from Massachussets. He is currently a student studying computer programming, and claims to have programmed Microsoft Word before Bill Gates stole it from him
He always says he wants to go to the end of the game.
Noel: We'll see about that...

Hal has his lucky Teenage Mutant scarf with him today - he's had a lot of great times with it. It says it brings him luck when he goes on a CoD all nighter.

Hal: Let's get on with the game shall we?
Noel: HOLD IT! We've got to discover your joke prizes first!
You have: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Figurine! The banker is asking for it... Also is the NoelsFan/1,000,000! You'll be able to estimate the NoelsFan with that! Your last joke prize is the Unreleased beta of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3! You'll love that.

Your special squares are... Killersbee, KP's Fair Deal, and the Blammo. (I'll divide the KP's Fair Deal estimate by two to make it a bit less weighted.)

Noel: Hal, NOW you may start! Good luck, and everyone here hopes you win BIG.

Hal: Let's start with... F!
Noel: F... why do you speak so quietly?
F: Uh... because... I don't really know...
Noel: Sorry?
F: I don't really know...
Noel: A little louder please...?
F: I DON'T KNOW, OK?!
Noel: ...

2 - F - £1,000!
Noel: Good start, good start!
Hal: Hmm... I'll go for the lovely Sinta please! When she was the newbie... I remember her looking quite menacingly at Sonic...
Sinta: He's such a cute little mouse though!
Sylvester: Mmmm... exactly what I was thinking.
Sinta: Sylvester! We've got to battle our instincts! We're on national TV!
Sylvester: You hear that, Sonic? Once we're out of national TV, watch out!
Methanol: Oh shut up you two idiots and get on with the game.
Noel: We're on national TV, Methanol; behave yourself.

23 - Sinta - £300! Claps from the pilgrims.
Hal: This is great! I'm going for... 13 please, Coco.
Coco Pops: My name is a brand, so if you need me, call me Coco Pops.

13 - Coco Pops - £100,000! Mixed reactions there.
Noel: Not bad... not bad. That could have been a lot worse...
Hal: The lovely newbie please! Friskie.

Noel: Friskie, welcome to the game. Ah, a fox! Ever read Fantastic Mr. Fox?
Friskie: Ah, that story was great, wasn't it?
Noel: It sure was! Can you open the box for us then?
Friskie: I hope this red box
Contains the little penny
Good Luck Mr. Hal.

18 - Friskie - £2,500!
Hal: Friskie! Wrong side of the board!
Noel: This is shaping up to be a very strong first round!
Hal: 10 please, Luke.
Luke: Good luck Hal... let's see if we can make this a blue!

10 - Luke - £5,000,000!
Noel: Aah... a sting in the tail there! If you can find the penny though, it will balance things out.
Hal: I'd better then! *sings the teenage mutant song while thinking*
Aah, Stephen please.
Stephen: Best of luck mate...

15 - Stephen - £15! Fantastic!
Noel: That... was a pretty good opening round. Let's see what the Banker says...

*BANKER CALLS*
After yesterday's fantastic game... I think you're really going to gamble today. Time to get you out cheap. This is going to be good... let's see...


Hal: Seriously... who would stop here?
Mutya: I would... £150,000 is too much money to risk!
Hal: Oh pfft... ask me the question Noel.

Noel: £150,000... DEAL OR NO DEAL?

Hal: NO DEAL!

Round 2.

Hal: Hmm... I know Sharkey's an impatient one, so I'll go with him please!
Sharkey: You won't regret picking me!

27 - Sharkey - BLAMMO!!!



Noel: You know what this means, Hal?
Hal: Precisely. BRILLIANT!
Sharkey: I told ya... Noel... set my tank a degree colder please... this excitment is heating me up...

1p changes to... £607,814... quite low...
£1 changes to... £1,209,397!
£2 changes to... £10,445,493!!! Always can do with an extra million!
No need to order these on the board too...

Hal: Perfection. Aah... my neighbour Troy, another fellow geek. Come on dude, give me that Killersbee Sting!
Noel: Tough luck Hal... The Killersbee Sting can't sting values that have already been changed!
Hal: Stupid game...

Troy: You deserve to win huge mate, just for being the best epic win neighbour there's ever been. You're an awesome dude. Oh... did you see that latest xkcd comic?
Hal: I did... bahaha... Stud finder. Priceless.

8 - Troy - NOELSFAN!
Hal: What did you go and do that for!


Noel: The NoelsFan was pretty high though Hal. It was... £11,337,408... and therefore the highest amount you could have won.

Hal: Oh well, with two ten-million prizes... not much was lost!

*BANKER CALLS*
I love your attitude. This guy's surely going to win a blue, and good riddance, because I really like him

Hal: 24... Gombario please.
Gombario: Good luck!

24 - Gombario - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Figurine!
Noel: Perfection!
Hal: Couldn't have asked for anything better!

21 - Mutya - Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Beta! Huge cheers from the studio.
Noel: One joke prize to another. Perfect since the Cookie Monster isn't available today.
Hal: Aww man... I really... really wanted that.
Mutya: Well done Hal... but I have a feeling you should have dealt the £150,000...

*BANKER CALLS*
I love Mutya.

Noel: Last box then Hal, what's it going to be!
Hal: Ghostbusters! Crocobot please. Gives me memories of my hacking of Sonic 2.
Noel: What? A hacker? Did you manage to hack this game to ensure you won the £10,000,000?
Hal: Eheheheheh...

4 - Crocobot - £500! Huge claps.
Noel: This game is shaping up to be a strong one... here's hoping you don't deal too soon!

*BANKER CALLS*
Yes, the NoelsFan's gone! But THE STUPID 1p DISAPPERED! I HATE SPECIAL SQUARES SO MUCH!


Hal: Aha! That's a cube number! That's 71 cubed.
Noel: I'm sure everyone wanted to know that.
Hawley: Isn't that general knowledge?

Hal: I'm ready for the question...
Noel: £357,911... DEAL... or NO DEAL?
Hal: NO DEAL!

Round 3.

Hal: Let's go from one extreme to another. Toonie please.

30 - Toonie - KP's Fair Deal!
Noel: That's a bit of a shame, because you would have got £5,000 guaranteed out of this game!
Hal: Oh well... you win some, you lose some. 1 next!
Sonic: I hope this is the NoelsFan/1,000,000!

1 - Sonic - £50!! Fantastic!
Noel: This is looking really, really strong now.
Hal: I'm bound to hit some reds though... I'll go for... Good oel' Joel!

20 - Joel - £10,445,493!
Hal: Uhh... OK. Thanks anyway Joel!
Joel: Really sorry about that mate!
Hal: Nah... it's cool.

Noel: You've got a great attitude to the game Hal! Some people would cry once they saw that.
Methanol: PAH! I hate optimists. He's going to lose soon enough...

12 - Jim - £74,000! Claps from the studio.
Hal: Brilliant!

*BANKER CALLS*
Not much to say here, except I LOVE STINGS IN THE TAIL!

Hal: Woah, one cube to the next! But you can't take an offer like that! There's still loads to play for! Ask me the question Noel:

Noel: £343,000... DEAL OR NO DEAL?
Hal: NO DEAL!

Round 4.

Hal: Four boxes this round?
Noel: Yes. Go for it.

Hal: Uh... 16! Derek, let's see it!
Derek: Hmm, I think I have the £5 in here!
Hal: I do hope so!

16 - Derek - KILLERSBEE STING!
Noel: Oh... My... God! This is the first ever game where two special squares have been activated!
Hal: It's a shame that I took the high blues out though...
Noel: Yes, but look!

£25 goes to £25,000!
£100 goes to £100,000!

Noel: It makes your board that much stronger...

Hal: Ah... this is good. Heidi please, number twenny-nine.
Heidi: Best of luck, you nerd, you!

29 - Heidi - NOELSFAN/1,000,000!
Noel: If you find the £5 this round, you are GUARANTEED £5,000! This is an amazing game, and it's already in the hall of fame!

Hal: This is great stuff! All players, raise your hand if you think you have the £5!
Lemono, Sylvester, Olga, Porcupe and Nick raise their hand.

Hal: You all look convinced... but Sylvester... it's just his face...
Sylvester: You won't be disappointed mate!
Sinta: Pah!

11 - Sylvester - £2,500,000!
Sinta: Who can trust Sylvester anyway?
Sylvester: Quiet, Sinta...

Hal: Nah, I was mistaken. Olga, you know you have it.
Olga: I sure do!

14 - Olga - £10,000! Brilliant!

*BANKER CALLS*
Olga is a liar! A LIAR! And god... these special squares are really REALLY irritating me!
Hal, I know you like cube numbers, so...


Hal: I guess this is where the game starts...
Noel: Yes, definitely.
Hal: Hmm... another cube!
Hawley: Yes, that is 85 cubed... everyone knows that...
Hal: Yeah, definitely.
...even if I lose the £10,000,000... I've still got some great prizes here. I'm not a ditherer... so ask me that famous question if you please, Noel.

Noel: £614,125... DEAL OR NO DEAL?

Hal: NO DEAL!

Round 5.

Hal: I can sense it. This is going to be GOOD.
Everyone cheers.
Methanol: No it's not...
Nobody hears him.

26 - Hawley - £5,000!
Hal punches in the air!
Noel: Brilliant start!
Hal: Yes Ainsi. Yes Ainsi.
Ainsi: I'll see what I can do...

17 - Ainsi - £250,000!
Hal: [out of breath] That's all right... that's all right! That's fine man. LIM-EZ! How you doing mate?
Limez: Aah, fine... just fine.
Hal: Open that box and show me the fiver will ya?
Limez: A please would be nice...
Hal: PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE...

6 - Limez - £1,000,000!
Hal: That's OK! You get away with it because you're such an awesome dude and neighbour...

*BANKER CALLS*
That round... was entertaining, to say the least. Let's see... I can't offer him a seven-figure sum, so it'll have to be...

Noel: What amazes me Hal... is without those specal squares, this could have been a different game...
Hal: I know rite? I don't know why he didn't bother me to offer the full £100 cubed!
Hawley: Yep... that's clearly 99 cubed.
Hal: Exactly! EVeryone knows that... if you don't, you're pretty pathetic!
*5 minutes later (I'm not good at these offer ditherings)
Hal: I'm going to regret this... Ask me the question Noel:
Noel: £970,299... DEAL OR NO DEAL?

Hal:









NO DEAL!

Round 6.

Hal: [really worried] Let's go for spikey shall we?
Porcupe: I really hope this is the fiver for you mate, you deserve it so much.
Hal: Thanks dude... I hope it is too...

25 - Porcupe - £1,209,397!
Noel: Eeek! We wanted to keep that one! The only way to beat the banker by gambling is to win the £10,000,000 now! DON'T FIND IT!
Hal: No worries Noel, I won't! I hope... Box 5 please!

5 - Lemono - £25,000!
Hal: YES! YES! Freeze, my friend! Let's have the fiver in there dude!

Freeze: I really hope so! You've been really good on the wings!

22 - Freeze - £100,000!
Hal: YES! YES! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Noel: You avoided taking the £10,000,000 out! That's great stuff there Hal.

*BANKER CALLS*


Hal: I had a dream last night... that I was going to be the first ten-millionaire. Surely it's a vision.
Hawley: You get the chance to have 111 cubed though. And who doesn't want to win a palindrome sum of money?
*10 minutes later*

Hal: Call me crazy everyone. Ask me the question...
Noel: £1,367,631... DEAL... OR NO DEAL?

Hal:








































NO DEAL!

Round 7.

Hal: I have my reasons Noel... With only one blue... you've just GOT to go for it.

Noel: Hal... we really want you to win loads of money. Find that fiver, and win the £10,000,000 for us!

Hal: That's a guarantee!

*BANKER CALLS*
Let's not get confident, Junior.

Hal: shut up, SHUT UP, SHUT UP!!! Open 28 mate... put me out of my misery!

Nick: Best of luck!

28 - Nick - £607,814!
Hal: Perfectly fine!
Noel: And that's one of the components for both the disaster and the perfect round... Which way will it go?

Hal: Eugeno, three please!

Eugeno: *Croak* good luck Hal.

3 - Eugeno - £750,000!
Noel: That's... alright, actually.
Hal: My last box has to be... the horrid Methanol.

Methanol: This will be perfect timing if...
Hal: Just open the damn box!

19 - Methanol - £500,000!!
Methanol: Dang it...

Noel: And what a FINALE!

*BANKER CALLS*
Indeed...

Hawley: £169 cubed... or incidentally... £13 to the power six!
Hal: Oh jeez... So much dosh... should I risk it? Who would Deal?
Everyone raises their hand except for Mutya.
Noel: Mutya? Are you drunk?
Mutya: £10,000,000!
Hal: The £10,000,000 was on the table yesterday though...
Noel: Indeed it was
Hal: But... £4,826,809 is SO MUCH MONEY! It's... breathtaking! It could pay off everything... and I could... do lots of... ask me the question Noel...
Noel: £4,826,809... DEAL... OR NO DEAL?
Hal:

































DEAL!
The music plays.

Noel: This could be one of the most perfect games ever... if you had the fiver all along...
Hal: It would wouldn't it?
Noel: Take a seat, take a seat...

Noel pulls the seal...
















lifts the box...





























£10,000,000!!
Noel: You had it all along, Hal. That's a shame...

Hal: I know I could of had £10,000,000... but £4,826,809! Cor I could do a lot with that!
Noel: You played the game with such a good attitude, you deserve that and more! You will sorely be missed! Dewey... complete the game:

9 - Dewey - £5!
Noel: £4,826,809, Hal. Enjoy the dosh.
Hal: Oh that's a given, dude!

The music plays, and everyone gathers to the pound table.



Noel: Yesterday's game was cringeworthy, but this game was brilliant. I'm sure you'll come back another time for the next game of Deal or No Deal. See you there!

The end.
