RING #3
Official Match-Up: BluJay112 (Nick M) vs. J2999 (James R)
The name of this game is "Oil and Water".
This Ring will test your will to stay in the game as well as your percision.
This elimination will be taking place in Tengaged mails and you can start whenever you are ready.
To start, you must mail me the phrase: START MY TIME.
After you have done that, your job will be to go into the oil pit, retierve a ball, and place it in your tank. To do so, you will follow these steps:
1. After you start your time, you must wait 5 minutes before you mail me the phrase: CRAWLS OVER TO OIL PIT
2. Once you have done this, you will need to wait between 5 to 15 minutes before mail me the phrase:
RETRIEVES ____________ COLORED BALL FROM OIL PIT
3. You must wait another 5 minutes before you mail me the phrase:
CRAWLS BACK TO OIL PIT AND PLACES BALL IN TANK
After you have completed Step 3, you may go back to Step 1 after having waited 5 minutes. Please note that if during Steps 1 or 3, you are late more than 2 minutes, your run ends. Being early will mean that your run for that cycle will not count.
Now the catch?
You may choose what colored ball you get from the oil pit. The ball you choose will determine the time restraints you are under during step 2. Once you choose a color to go for, you may not switch colors during your run.
GREEN: You can wait 5 minutes in Step 2 for the GREEN colored ball. If you are early or late by more than 7 seconds, then your run will end immediately. For this option, only 1 point will be added to your score for each time you mail me the phrase correctly.
YELLOW: You can wait 10 minutes in Step 2 for the YELLOW colored ball. If you are early or late by more than 3 seconds, then your run will end immediately. For this option, only 3 points will be added to your score for each time you mail me the phrase correctly.
RED: You can wait 15 minutes in Step 2 for the YELLOW colored ball. If you are early or late by more than 1 second, then your run will end immediately. For this option, only 7 points will be added to your score for each time you mail me the phrase correctly.
Lastly, you can end your run at any time by sending in the mail:
JUMPS INTO TANK AND RELEASES BUOY
If you release your buoy, you will be given 2 free points. You may only release your buoy if you end your run by choice rather than you missing a post.
The person with the most points will win this Ring and remain in the game. Loser goes home. In the event of a tie, the person who went for the higher color ball win win. If that ties, the person who started first wins.
This Ring starts now and will last until tomorrow (Friday) 1 PM PST (4 PM EST).
Good Luck!
