j6 and also there's still like 30 spaces left on the map so picking one at a time could take 30 more rounds.

Not to rub salt in the wound, but you were one space away when you said this. Their sub was at J7.

Also thanks for sticking with it guys. I know it was a long one!

Probably would have done a few things differently if we had time to iron out the kinks (smaller board, more shots, wouldn't have put in subs, I would have made the board not have so many invisible goddamn artifacts), but this challenge was a little last minute since the planned challenge couldn't be done since some forum features aren't working. Which we of course found out right before the challenge started.

Appreciate the patience everyone.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
Yeah who in the everloving gently caress thought 1 space ships was a good idea? It was the worst idea.

Yeah, the battleship template I found on GIS 5 minutes before the game started used subs, and I've seen subs before in online games.

But it did really extend the game.

Well, this helps. Thanks for clarifying. I guess I hope the forum's in working order for the next challenge so you can use what you had in mind.

I apologize for the challenge taking as long as it did. I did not have internet access due to being stranded at a friend's house, and was only alerted by Pinterest Mom via txt a few minutes before the challenge that we could not do the scheduled one due to some malfunctioned forums features. As a result, we had to quickly hobble a challenge together, which obviously meant it wouldn't be up to usual par. We're sorry for the challenge taking as long as it did, and hope that some of you still had fun playing, as that is the foremost goal of the staff with this game. Thank you. -JC

FYI, I found out that I'm going to be out of town Friday through Sunday with limited Internet access. I'll be able to make brief check-ins, but won't be able to do anything that requires more than five or so continuous minutes in front of a computer at a time. Should be back Sunday afternoon-ish, so this only really affects Friday and Saturday.

Tribal Council 2

Hurf Tribe, Welcome to Tribal Council. Here, you have to answer for the actions you've taken in this game. Tonight is where one of you will be voted out. This is the last place you want to find yourself in this game. Being at Tribal Council puts you at risk of going home, and a spot further away from the $75 grand prize. During Tribal Council, you are NOT allowed to communicate outside of the thread by any means. No PMing eachother, no communicating in external docs, all talking occurs inside this thread. You can talk outside of answering the questions, but it must all be contained in this thread while Tribal Council is going on. Similarly, I ask that players who are not part of the tribe attending Tribal Council to refrain from posting while it's going on.



As is tradition with Tribal Council, we have some questions, submitted by players not attending tonight and from those in the viewer's vista. You must answer the questions asked to you in this thread before you're allowed to cast a vote. I will open voting at 7:00 or when everyone has answered their questions. Failure to cast a vote by the deadline (Midnight Tonight) will result in a vote cast for yourself.

QUESTIONS FOR TONIGHT'S TRIBAL COUNCIL:

For Fast Luck, Chili, Maltose

You guys were literally a move away from surviving this challenge. How much frustration sets in from being so close and still failing?

For Bowmore, Dhaes

A few of you seem to know eachother from playing Mafia and other games together. Does this naturally cause you guys to potentially form an alliance, or would you be wary of each other knowing how sneaky and deceptive you all can be?

For everyone

You guys are going to be down to four people after this Tribal. It becomes almost imperative that you cannot lose anymore. What needs to happen at Tribal Council to make sure it doesn't happen again?

None. With the way the game shook out, with those one space subs... total crapshoot. Nothing to be grumpy about.

Someone has to go home, that's how the game works, not really sure how kicking someone out will help us.
