Press Your Nixie (a Nixie Based Press Your Luck Game)
Press Your Luck (tv game show) in Nixie form,.. getting a W (view the tube upsidedown) is like getting a wammy, see how many points (other cathodes) you can get before hitting 3 wammies.
people on the show would always say "NOWAMMY NOWAMMY NOWAMMY STOPPP!!!"
parts for the circuit:
7805
555
74192
74141
IN-7
camera flash (for hv - look up for other instructables on how to hack a flash for nixie power suply)
SPST switch (or button)
resistors/caps/wires/potentiometer
here's the circuit (warning i suck at drawing a schematic):

here's another vid of it working showing the various speed control

i tried so hard to make a score board for it too but it just wasn't working. i actually spent way more time on that than the finished circuit.
