What is "Deal or No Deal"?

From Wikipedia:

[ QUOTE ]
The basic format of Deal or No Deal consists of a number of cases (usually 26) each containing a different amount of money. Not knowing the sum of money in each case, the contestant picks one case which potentially contains the contestant's prize. They then open the remaining cases, one by one, revealing the money they contained. At predetermined intervals the contestant receives an offer from the bank (run by "The Banker") to purchase the originally chosen case from the contestant, the offer being based on the potential value of the contestant's case. The contestant must then decide whether to take the deal from the bank, or to continue opening briefcases. If the contestant decides not to take the deal and reveals low value cases, then the next bank offer is likely to be higher (as the contestant's case is proven not to contain these low values). Alternatively, there is risk in revealing higher values, lowering future offers from the bank.

[/ QUOTE ]

Information on the format of the game is readily available on the internet if you've never seen the show.


THE CHALLENGE

I will play Deal or No Deal with each remaining member of Survivor via AIM or PM, starting now and ending tomorrow (Sunday) at 4PM Eastern. Games take roughly 15-20 minutes.

The team that earns the highest amount ON AVERAGE will win. I WILL NOT BE POSTING RESULTS IN THIS THREAD UNTIL ALL GAMES HAVE BEEN COMPLETED; PLAYERS DO SO AT THEIR OWN RISK. Last Survivor, the issue was raised that results give a strategic advantage to those left to play -- so if you post your results, or even reactions to your results in this thread, you do so at your own risk.

Further, any results/reactions posted by a player in this thread before the end of the game are NOT required to be truthful; you can meta-game in-thread by posting false results. So not only do you post results here at your own risk, you RELY on results posted here at your own risk.

Players are NOT allowed to privately communicate with their tribe WHILE playing, but ARE allowed to share results and strategize before and after.

Further, the player with the highest score will earn a REWARD to be exercised before the next immunity challenge.

Also, a note on fairness: I'm using a Deal or No Deal game to operate these. I am not placing the cases, nor am I coming up with the offers -- I'm simply acting as a middle man between the player and the game itself.
