Hello everyone!
I apologize for being late with the results, but the thing I had today went much later than expected. I do have an announcement to make however, as mysterygame2 has needed to walk from the game due to personal reasons. I am in the process of finding a replacement out of the remaining applicants, but there is a chance that I may need to continue the season with only 27 players.
But with that said, I do need to shed light on why I required you to do that assignment. Simply put, the assignment was to figure out captains for the teams this season!
There were a couple of players who did not send in a list of 9 players, and will be penalized by having a penalty vote to be sent into the gauntlet that will follow them throughout the entire season. Those players are: countrysavage, doubledarefan01, jussy007, and TheKevmiester.
The players who appeared the MOST on everyone else's lists will be our captains this season. As a tiebreaker, the player who appeared on the most player's #1 spots breaks it. If that's a tie, then #2 spots, and so on.
Here are our captains this season!
Absol- appearing on 17 players' lists.
LaFierceBrittany2- appearing on 13 players' lists [2 #1 spots, 3 #2 spots]
Christian_- appearing on 13 players' lists [2 #1 spots, 2 #2 spots]
Rawr121- appearing on 13 players' lists [1 #1 spots]
--------------------------------------------------------------
Oh? Is that too many captains? I don't think so, because welcome to the main twist of the game! There will be FOUR teams in this game!
Here is how the game will work with four teams:
In each episode, all four teams will participate in the same challenge. HOWEVER, you will NOT be directly competing against the other three teams. Each episode, there will be two “match-ups” for the challenge. All you need to do to win the challenge is to beat the team that you are matched up against, as the other two teams will be competing in their own match.
After each episode, there will be two teams who win, and two teams that lose. The two losing teams will be sending two of their members into the gauntlet as follows:
1. The winning team in each matchup will vote for ONE player on the team that they beat to go into the gauntlet. The ONE player with the most votes will go into the gauntlet.
2. The winning team will also vote to PROTECT on the losing team that they beat from the Gauntlet.
3. The losing teams in each matchup will vote for ONE player on their team to go into the gauntlet. The ONE player with the most votes will go into the gauntlet.
Gauntlets will be teammate vs teammate, with the winner staying and the loser leaving.
The match-ups between teams will change every episode, and you will go against all other teams every three episodes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
With that said, now that we have captains, we need to draft our teams! The captains will need to send me a list ranking ALL remaining players. Then, the captains will draft their teams in this order:
Absol, LaFierceBrittany2, Christian_, Rawr121, Rawr121, Christian_, LaFierceBrittany2, Absol.....
That order will continue until all players are drafted.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alright, so there was a lot of information in that post. Let me know if you have any questions, and once I get the lists from all four captains, we will have our teams and will start with our first challenge!
The deadline for the captains will be 8 PM EST on Monday, July 2nd, but I will draft the teams once I have all lists.
