Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

This will be kind of a fun challenge and will require little effort on your part. Each survivor has three jars hanging from ropes and each survivor is equipped with a hammer. One by one, each survivor will step up and smash one jar belonging to one other survivor. Once all three of your jars are smashed you are out of the game. The last person with jars intact wins immunity. What I need everyone to do is to provide me with a list (via private message) of the survivors you want to hit and the order in which you want to hit them. You can hit the same person three times in a row, or you can spread out your hits if you like. So your list might look like

1) SurvivorA
2) SurvivorB
3) SurvivorB
4) SurvivorC
5) SurvivorB
6)....and so on

Your list should be 21 names long since there are 7 others besides yourself in this contest.

Each round I will look at your list and execute your requested hit. If the person you selected has already been knocked out of the game then I will proceed to the next person on your list.

The order in which you will go has been determined by how close you came to guessing the correct number of jellybeans. The closer you are the sooner you get to make a hit.

1st group: Happydude, ZebraRampage, Teuthida
2nd group: Typhoid, BLueFire, Jonbo298
3rd group: Vampyr, Killergremlin

The games will begin Thursday night at 6:00 pm unless I need to delay it. I will spread out the rounds in intervals of 10-15 min. The reason for this is so that you can observe who hits whom. Let's suppose someone hits you that you weren't expecting and you want to hit that person back instead of using your list. If you choose to do so either post your new choice in the challenge thread or send me a PM and I will execute your new choice. The next round you can make a new choice of whom to hit or I will go back to your original list.

You can either monitor the hits and make adjustments as needed or you can not show up at all and let your list take its course. Questions?

Please submit your lists to me ASAP.

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

so the first round will consist of 8 hits, correct?

then the next 8, and so on and so forth?

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

No there are only three people in the 1st group so the 1st round will only have 3 hits.

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

i don't get it...care to explain a bit more? it might be that it;s past my bedtime and my brain isn't working, but explain anyway please :p

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

the 1st round consists of three people making making one hit each, that equals three hits.

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

Does anyone know what happened to Vampyr?

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

I think you're making this way too complicated. Each Survivor has three jars. In round 1 each member of the 1st group gets to hit a jar belonging to any other Survivor. The next round group 2 goes, and the 3rd round group 3 goes. They we start the process over. On the show a question is asked each round and whoever gets it right gets to smash a jar. Except instead of questions the rounds you get to participate in have already been determined by your jellybean guess. The first group goes in rounds 1, 4, 7... The second group goes in rounds 2, 5, and so on.

Just provide a list of all your hits and I promise it will make sense after you see a round.

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

I'm still missing a few lists so I'm going to delay the challenge for a day or so to give people a chance to get them in.

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

So will the challenge be tonight?

Re: Challenge#9: Smash a Jar
 

Late tonight or tomorrow, i can start the first round pretty much anytime since it has already been decided by the lists.
