WHEEL! OF! FORTUNE!

OK, Madman200 has already signed up, so now we need 2 more contestants for this episode

New rules:

Caboose Rule: When a contestant solves the puzzle, the turn will pass to the next contestant at the start of the next puzzle (assuming there is one).

Repost of original rules:

Basically, I will post a puzzle consisting of hyphens, spaces, and punctuation. Each hyphen represents a letter that is in the word or phrase. A category will be given such as "Thing", "Event", "Fictional Character", etc.

I will say which contestant is up, and she or he may spin, buy a vowel, or solve the puzzle. If you wish to spin, name a consonant (Y is always considered a consonant for the purposes of this game). I will tell you how much the spin was worth and how much you earned. For instance, if the spin is 500 and you guess T and there are 3 T's, you would get 1500 points and you can go again. If the consonant isn't in the puzzle, you don't get any points and the next contestant gets a turn.

Some special spaces are on the wheel as well:
Lose A Turn - You lose your turn, but you can keep your points.
Bankrupt - You lose your turn and all your points for that round. You keep points from previous rounds.
Free Spin - You can save this and use it at any point at which you would lose your turn. When you use the Free Spin, you must spin for a consonant, not buy a vowel or solve. When the Free Spin is taken from the wheel, it is gone and the space is just numerical.

To buy a vowel (A, E, I, O, or U only), you need at least 250 points. The points are deducted from your total regardless of how many of the vowel are in the puzzle. If the vowel isn't there, you lose your turn.

If you want to solve, simply post what you think the answer to the puzzle is. If you're correct, you get to keep all your points for that round. If you had fewer than 1000, you get 1000 points instead. The other 2 contestants lose their points for that round, if they had any.

The game will go for 5 rounds normally, then there will be a 6th speed round in which I will spin the wheel once and add 1000 points to the total. All of the contestants will act in turn and guess a consonant for that amount of points or a vowel for no points. After your letter, you may solve the puzzle if you want or pass to the next contestant.

The winner will get to play a bonus round. In the bonus round, you will pick a number between 1 and 20, then select 5 consonants and 1 vowel. If you can solve the puzzle within 24 hours, I will open the numbered envelope and you will win potentially anywhere from 20000 to 100000 points.

Hmm...doubt I'm going to get this one.

It's twelve letters, so it bound to have multiple consonants in it. Let's check the D.

You can't spin for a vowel (A, E, I, O, or U). Please call a consonant instead

Attempt to hold on to my turn.

That being said, spin for...like I know. I don't see any hints(in the word), so just picking L.

L was already chosen. I will allow you to select a different letter

*reinstates the used letter board and wonders why she forgot it*

I was about to say R earlier, but I knew that was already used. Then I looked and didn't see L thus I chose it.
Time to look harder, I suppose. *looks down from reply page* Or just look at the used letter list. I'll use a C this time.
