Veto Competition #2

[Wayne]

Welcome to the second Veto competition! The houseguests competing in this game are Mei, Cybergrl, BioDork, kathleen, Elizabeth, and Peter Parker.

This game is reminiscent of Battleship -- actually, it is exactly like Battleship. From the board below, each player must PM me where they would like to place their ships: there will be one ship comprising three adjacent spaces, one ship comprising two, and one ship comprising one.

This competition will last a few days. Each of you will also PM me six spaces you would like to attack first. Put the one you want to attack first at the top of your list, because even though you will PM me the locations of six spaces, it is only for one turn. You are PMing me six in case you are the last one to send in, and miraculously, every other spot you've chosen has already been chosen by the players before you.

The game will continue on like this until all but one's ships are sunk. A round will end when everyone has made one move. As soon as I get the PMs for one round, I will post the progress here and a new round will begin immediately. Potentially, there could be multiple rounds in one day. The order in which you send me the PMs for the FIRST ROUND will be the order in which you will attack for the rest of the game, no matter when you send them in later rounds.

Here is the board:


If a player does not send me their hits within 24 hours of the time a round is posted, they are eliminated from the competition. Players, start sending me your hits and where your three ships will be located.

Note: If you are unaware of what a hit is, it's just a spot on the board. For example, A-1 or B-6 would be examples of a hit.

I love battleship.... YAY but i have no luck.

Okay, the moves for the first round are in.

First: Mei targets A-1. It's a miss.
Second: BioDork targets B-2. He hits one of Kathleen's ships.
Third: Kathleen targets C-4. She hits one of BioDork's ships.
Fourth: Cybergrl targets A-2. She hits one of Kathleen's ships, sinking it.
Fifth: Peter Parker targets C-3. It's a miss.
Sixth: Elizabeth targets J-1. It's a miss.

Here is the board after round one:


Everyone must now send me six more locations to target. Remember: you are only making one move. Sending six locations is just in case everyone miraculously sends in the same target space.

You have 24 hours to do this, but if you do not send in before then you are automatically eliminated from this Veto.

Round 2

First: Mei targets D-4, hitting one of BioDork's ships, one of Kathleen's ships, and one of Elizabeth's ships.
Second: BioDork targets E-3. It's a miss.
Third: Kathleen targets B-4. It's a miss.
Fourth: Cybergrl targets B-1. It's a miss.
Fifth: Peter Parker targets C-5. It's a miss.
Sixth: Elizabeth targets A-4 and hits one of Mei's ships.

You have 24 hours to send in your next six targets.

Oh, whoops. Here's the board.

[Wayne]

Hey guys, I'm sorry, but nothing further will be posted until either Saturday night or Sunday afternoon, as I'm going away for the weekend.

[BioDork]

;)wayne's a loser

[kathleen]

have a fun weekend

[Cybergrl]

Have a great weekend! See you Sunday!

[Peter Parker]

Don't worry about us Wayne. Have fun.

[kathleen]

lol Peter is right we will be fine!!!

[Anthony]

Enjoy yourself. =]

Okay, new round. Sorry for being gone so long (especially since this is a long challenge).

First: Mei targets F-10. It's a miss.
Second: BioDork targets A-3. He hits one of Mei's ships, sinking it.
Third: Kathleen did not send in on time, and therefore all of her ships have been sunk. Kathleen is out of the game.
Fourth: Cybergrl targets A-5. It's a miss.
Fifth: Peter Parker targets C-6. It's a miss.
Sixth: Elizabeth targets F-1. It's a miss.



The five remaining have 24 hours to send in their next five targets. And a new rule has been made: because I do not want all of the other houseguests waiting for too long, a player will be out of the game once two of their ships have been sunk, as opposed to all three.

Round 4!

First: Mei targets E-4. She hits BioDork's ship, sinking it.
All of the rest of the targets were misses.



I am adding another rule to this game for the sake of not keeping the non-veto players waiting any longer. It may seem unfair, but I want to keep interest in the continuity of this game. From this point on, anyone whose ship is hit is out of this game. You may use hints already on the board to discover where people are, though there are not many.

And just so everyone knows, some spaces are only crossed off because Kathleen failed to send in on time. Some spaces have not been hit yet.

[BioDork]

So, D-3 and D-5, are not hit yet?
