Welcome final 4.
Danny, Garrett, Dexter, and Rod....you have all made it.
Congrats.
Today you will be playing a challenge called "Hell-A-Thon"
As you may have expected, you will be playing Hell's version of a triathlon.
Part I
In Part one you will try to outsmart your opponents in two classic games. Soccer and Rock/Paper/Scissors.
For Rock/Paper/Scissors you must send in two things.
1. You must send in a 5 round list of what you would pick for rock/paper/scissors (meaning 1. Rock 2. Paper, etc...so round one you would choose Rock for example).
2. You must send in what you think each opponent will pick for their 5 rounds.
Yang will match up each person together and see who wins the Rock/Paper/Scissor battles. For each individual round you win, you will receive 2 points and if you win a majority of the rounds (3 of 5 or more) against one player, you get an additional 2 bonus points. Also, if you correctly guess what your opponent will pick then that is an additional 1 bonus point.
For the Soccer, it is very similar.
You are each shooting against each other on a soccer net. Your choices are to shoot Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, or Bottom Right.
So for this you send in
1. A 5 round list of where you will shoot, and a 5 round list of where you will block.
2. A 5 round list of where each other player will shoot.
Same scenario as the other game, 2 points per round win, 2 points per "battle" win, and 1 point per correctly guessing where your opponents will shoot.
Then Yang will take the combined scores for each of these 2 games and whatever 2 players have the lowest score of all four of you are out of the challenge.
Then we move on with the remaining 3 players to part 2.
Part 2:
So we dealt with the mental aspect of beating/outsmarting your opponent. Now we will move into a more physical aspect.
You must find and post in your confessionals pictures of these things that could be found in Hell (Note: Make a seperate thread titled IC #14 Part 2)....
-Fire
-A Demon
-A Zombie
-Satan
-Gold/Silver
-Chained Humans
-Yang
This part has no effect on winning or losing, but is required or else you suffer a 40 point penalty on part 3.
Part 3:
In part 3 we will have more of an endurance type and see just who wants it more.
In this Part you are simply trying to outpost your opponent.
You must post one of three phrases from a great song Yang likes ("I will not bow" by breaking benjamin).
These phrases are all in the chorus:
"I will not bow"
"I will not break"
and "I will not fade away"
Yang thought it was fitting so that you could psyche yourselves up while posting.
There are no restrictions for when you can post except for one, once you make your first post (in a seperate part 3 thread in your confessional) your timer starts and you have EIGHT HOURS to make as many posts as you can.
You can certainly start, leave, then come back within the eight hours, in fact Yang doesn't expect anyone to sit there for eight hours.
Also, lets say there are only 6 hours left to do the challenge, you can absolutely still start then if you haven't yet and you will simply only have 6 hours to post instead of 8.
This will test who wants it more.
Whoever has the most posts at the end of part 3 will win Immunity.
NOTE: You do all these parts at once, meaning you send in for part 1, and can immediately start on parts 2 and 3. You won't know if you have made it to those parts yet, but you can do them anyways in case you do because Yang will grade the whole challenge at once.
Also, IF YOU DO NOT SEND IN PART ONE THEN YOU AUTOMATICALLY ARE OUT OF THE CHALLENGE. NOT DOING PART 2 IS A 40 POST PENALTY ON PART 3, AND NOT DOING ANYTHING FOR PART 3 EARNS YOU AN AUTOMATIC VOTE AT TRIBAL COUNCIL AND TAKES YOU OUT OF THE CHALLENGE!
In the rare event there is a tie in part 1, then all people who tied will go on to part 2 (so we could essentially have 3 or 4 people competing in parts 2 and 3 if a lot of people tie).
You all have 48 hours to complete the entire challenge.
Worst of Luck!
