The Roy Dandy Wheel of Fortune
The Official Word Puzzle Game of Freak Fest II
Here's how it works: Simply solve the puzzle posted below by filling in its missing letters. Just like they do on tv
The topic for today: Sounds like the title of a Freaky Biv Song
Each puzzle is the title not of a Freaky Biv Song, but rather a title that sounds like a Freaky Biv Song
For instance - Like a Biv Over Troubled Water
Not the title of an actual FBS, believe it or not, but it sure sounds like one, huh?
Get it? Everyone understand? Good
Okay, Ive set up the puzzle board for you below
Your job now is to omplete the puzzle by filling it in two letters at a time, ie, you guess two letter (either consonant or vowel), and I will reveal their position(s) on the puzzle board. Then you guess two more letters, and so on
The first person to solve the puzzle wins a fabulous prize. Wanna know what youre playing for? A $25 gift certificate redeemable at our sponsor, Johnny's Lunch of Reidville, home of the famous Biv Plate Special (you know what that is)
Good luck, everyone. Dont be afraid. This is very easy. I know some of you think youre not good at puzzle solving, but have no fear. If I notice any of you struggling with it, I am fully prepared to drop some major hints. In fact here's one right now:

I don't get it, I fear there is something wrong with my brain...I think those occasional migraines caused some brain damage, if only I was a celebrity I could have gotten some decent care!

Havent you ever watched Wheel of Fortune before, Robin? Or played Hangman at school?
The puzzle is weird looking, but let me explain. It is ten words long. The first word is five letters. See the five dashes? Each forward slash indicates the end of one word and the beginning of a new one
Your assignment is simple: Guess two letters. That's all. And I will then fill them in on the puzzle
You are not brain damaged, I swear!
ETA: I will even let you to guess three letters at a time, if you want, a unique privilege I extend to you only... -

You are now free to guess more letters if you wish, Robin
Youre on the right track. Youve guessed the song title being parodied, but you havent solved the puzzle -

Another hint: Youve solved 90% of the puzzle already. The 10% youre missing is one word
Btw, we dont have to solve it this afternoon. We can let it hang if youd like -

Robin, let's let the puzzle sit for a while. I didnt mean for it to be solved in one day anyway. I wanted it to last
Keep guessing letters though. When I come back, I will fill them in
Youre almost there. Just missing the one word -

You guessed 't' earlier. There are three in the puzzle, but I only filled in two of them. Sorry about that. I just added the third one now
Puzzle is rounding into shape. Almost there!
If you win, what are you going to do with your gift certificate by the way? You dont have to use it to purchase a Biv Plate Special, you know, but I highly recommend you do. It's delicious -

PS Just want to let you know, Robin, whether you solve the puzzle or not (and I'm sure you will), for your participation in the Roy Dandy Wheel of Fortune today, I am presenting you with the prestigious Freak Fest Moxie Award which is handed out every year to the person who best embodies the spirit, attitude, and temperment of RoyBiv Nation
I know puzzle solving is not your forte. You told me so last year during the Handy Dandy Acrostic game (FudgeTown USA, remember?). So you were a little out of your comfort zone today, but you demonstrated true character by taking part anyway, which is pretty damn awesome. A lesser person would have just blown it off. For that RB Nation owes you a huge debt of gratitude
So, thank you, Robin. I salute you
It is a beautiful trophy (please see below). I hope you have an ideal spot someplace in your home where you can display it prominently -

WIMPS_ABS is wrong, but the 'p' is in the right position, so I will add 'p' to the puzzle along with the 'w' and the 'i'

Way to go, Robin. Here is your prize:
When you redeem it at Johnny's, I recommend the fried porkloin and bacon sandwich. It is delicious
Bring your trophy too please. Johnny wants to see it -

You mean all the times I have used the word "rumpswab" in a FBS, you didnt know what it was?
Well, now you know:) -

I dont eat red meat, I hope I can substitute it for a vegetarian sub and some french fries!
Whats FBS?
Oh...Freaky Biv Song...okay

Oh! I didnt know that. Well, youll find something there to your liking, I'm sure. The Waffle Plate is excellent
And while youre there, Robin, give a listen to the only jukebox in America that plays actual Freaky Biv Songs including old standards like FudgeTown Prison Blues, and Waiting All Day for Gunny's Bum
Thanks again for playing the Roy Dandy Wheel of Fortune!
ETA: A FBS is a Freaky Biv Song!!!
