So... I woke up this morning and found Farkle in my stocking... so I thought to make a game out of it!
RULES (for those who don't know what Farkle is)
For this edition of Farkle, we will use 3 contestants.
Contestants will not automatically be placed in order. After being introduced, there will be a random drawing to determine player order. The player who gets the number 1 goes first and sits in the blue podium, 2 goes second and sits in the green podium, 3 goes third and sits in the orange podium.
ROLLING DICE
To start a turn, the player will roll 6 dice (for this game, just say something like "(rolls dice)".

ROLLING DICE
To start a turn, the player will roll 6 dice (for this game, just say something like "(rolls dice)".
- The only single dice that are worth points are 5s (50 points) and 1s (100 points). Other numbers only count if you get at least 3 of them in a roll.
- Adding dice together from multiple rolls is not allowed. Say, for example, if you get a 3 in one roll and two 3s in another, you can't combine them to make three 3s (300 points).
- After each roll, you MUST remove one dice. If you are unable to do so, it is called a FARKLE, and any points you have not banked up to that point are wiped.
- To bank your points, you must have 500. Not my rules, it's in the official rules. After you reach 500, you can risk your points all you want. You only bank points when you tell me to bank them.
- After setting dice to the side, you roll the remaining dice. If you can set all 6 aside, you get to reroll them all.
SCORING
The scoring in Farkle works as so:
SINGLE DICE
5s (50 points) and 1s (100 points)
COMBOS
Three 1s = 300 pts
Three 2s = 200 pts
Three 3s = 300 pts
Three 4s = 400 pts
Three 5s = 500 pts
Three 6s = 600 pts
4 of a kind = 1,000 pts
5 of a kind = 2,000 pts
6 of a kind = 3,000 pts + PRIZE ($$$, vacation, or something else) because it's a game show
Full Straight (1 of each number from 1 to 6) = 1,500 pts
Three pairs = 1,500 pts
4 of a kind + Pair = 1,500 pts
Two triplets = 2,500 pts
WINNING
To win the game, a player must reach and bank 10,000 points. However, it doesn't just end when a player reaches 10,000.
Once someone reaches 10,000, the GRAND FINALE begins. The other 2 players have 1 last chance to surpass the total of the player that hit at least 10,000. If more than 1 player has 10,000 points, the winner is the player with the highest score. If a tie for 1st happens, I'll most likely just make you roll extra dice. But, chances are, that won't happen.
The point totals of all players will be turned into money prizes, and they will also receive parting gifts. If a player finishes with no points, they are granted $1,000 + the parting gifts.
BONUS ROUND
Once a winner has been determined, they will win at least $10,000 no matter the outcome.
Before the Bonus Round begins, the player will spin a wheel-like thingy similar to the WoF Bonus Round wheel. The wheel will spell FARKLE FOR $1,000,000, and each letter will have an envelope containing a prize. A few will have cars, a few will have vacations and other big gifts, and the rest will contain cash prizes ranging from $20,000 to the Jackpot of $1,000,000.
To win the Bonus Round, a player must reach 2,500 points in one run without a Farkle. It sounds hard, and it is made to be hard, so you may Farkle up to 3 times. When you Farkle, if you still have a chance left, you can reroll the dice and hope to not Farkle. Scoring and regular Farkle rules still apply, and if you fall short, what you ended on is multiplied by 4 and added to your grand total.
Players that win will appear in the next episode as reigning champions. A player can appear in a maximum of 5 episodes before retiring.
So, those are the rules of Farkle. With that out of the way, I will call for 3 contestants so that we can start the show.
