Finished Big Brother 10: Scramble & Conquer

Not open for further replies.
Okay, as HOH, I need to name a replacement nominee because Almonds has used the POV. I'm sure almost everyone was expecting this, but my replacement nominee this week is going to be mirdo. I hope everyone understands and respects my decision, but even if you don't, we can always talk about it. This veto meeting is adjourned.
 
Week 2 Vote
When Celever's unavailable or offline I'm going to keep the game moving along myself. We both have deemed this best to keep the game moving along. Quaking has nominated Mirdo to sit on the block alongside Aria. Please submit your votes for either.

Nominee 1: @Jacklongkawaii
Nominee 2: @mirdo
Deadline is at 10PM BST tomorrow in 29 hours. Countdown
 
Week 2 Vote Results

The votes are in! It seems this decision wasn't an easy one though, as the votes began to be read:

Aria
mirdo
Aria
mirdo
Aria
mirdo
Aria
mirdo

Tied 4-4, the final vote was read...
mirdo

In a 5-4 vote, mirdo has been eliminated and has earned the chance to fight for his way back into the season!

Conquer Phase
Week 3 HoH

So have you ever been playing Tetris and become disappointed in its lack of accurate physics? Then 99 Bricks is your game. This flash game was probably my most played in childhood (besides Club Penguin and Toontown) so have fun with this one.
As incumbent HoH, @quakingpunch73 may not play in this comp. Everyone else can, except for Mora and mirdo in the Colosseum as they will instead be duelling with the Power of Veto comp this week. Y'all have 48 hours, I'll add a countdown.
 
Week 3 HoH Results

The houseguests played with building blocks. Some got really high towers!

1st: NinjaPenguin 579
2nd: Almonds (C)
3rd: Senkun
4th: Lily
5th: Ephemera
6th: Shaymin
7th: Aria
8th: Violet
9th: Nick
10th: Flour

This means @NinjaPenguin won and earned the power of HoH, congratulations! Furthermore, @FourteenAlmonds earned the power of Chieftain and has earned immunity for the week, along with the power to select who chooses in the PoV comp instead of the random draft. The next phase will commence once the HoH and Chieftain decisions have both been made!
 
Due to technical difficulties a couple of updates are missing from the forums. I will likely post those updates later on for posterity, but the wiki is unaffected.

Almonds has elected to use his Power of Veto on Lily. This means @NinjaPenguin, as reigning HoH, must name a replacement nominee.
 
I've chosen to name @The Last Shaymin as a replacement nominee.
You're the only person remaining who I can nominate that has never spoken to me in this game. Once again, there's nothing personal here and please feel free to reach out to me to talk.
Best of luck in the vote to both of you!
 
Week 3 Vote Results
Another vote, another elimination. This week the block was comprised of Nick and Shaymin. The votes began to be read..

Nick
Shaymin
Nick
Shaymin
Nick
Shaymin

There are two votes remaining. Will this be a tie? If not, who got the last two votes? Well...

Shaymin
Shaymin

With that, Shaymin has been evicted 5-3 and has earned his chance to fight for his way back into the competition. Of note is that this is Mora's third duel, and if he beats Shaymin he fast tracks back into the game. This duel is one to watch...

Week 4 will begin with another shake up that I need a tiny bit more time to finish setting up (this isn't a long delay dw). However while this is done, communication is banned, even in the main house chat. This should be a short period, but apologies.
 
Scramble Phase
Week 4 Tribal Immunity

Hey castaways! I've been playing a lot of Survivor online recently (in final 6 in the current game :eyes: ) so this was always gonna happen. However in true Survivor fashion, for the first stage of this challenge you will be playing in tribes. And how are these tribes decided? I went ahead and calculated your average placements this season. Top 5 average placements are the Cool Conquerors, and the bottom 5 are the Savvy Scramblers. These tribes are alphabetised, but you can see who's the top cut and who's sliding on through.

Cool Conquerors:
Almonds
Quaking
Lily
Senkun
Violet

Savvy Scramblers:
Aria
Ephemera
Flour
Nick
NinjaPenguin
Communication with anyone not in your tribe is banned. However, you may discuss the game with other members of your tribe in DMs and your shiny new tribe chats.

As this is the tribal stage of the game, you are playing for tribal immunity. This will be done through 5 duels. You have 24 hours to decide as a tribe who plays what duel, and they will face their opponent from the opposing tribe who chooses the same duel. These duels are as followed:

Random Battles Through The Ages
Ultimate Tic Tac Toe
Mancala
Battleships
Chess
Random Battles Through The Ages is a first to 4 tournament battle on Pokémon Showdown!. Each battle must take place in a different generation of random battles. The first round will be Gen 1, and from there the loser decides which is next.

Ultimate Tic Tac Toe is your standard Tic Tac Toe with an added twist. It's a 3x3 grid of 3x3 grids, and where in the smaller grid the opponent plays their piece is the 3x3 grid where the next player may play their piece. Practice within your tribe is recommended, as there's a learning curve. This will be BO3.

Mancala is one of the oldest games ever created where players move pieces around a 6x2 grid, with two homes on either side. By the end of the game, the player with the most pieces in their home wins. This will be BO5. Stealing on.

Battleships is a classic showdown of mindgames where you place ships on your grid and then have to guess where on the grid your opponent placed theirs. This will be played on Russian Fleet Type and will also be BO3. Players may change the layout of their ships between matches during the BO3.

Chess is often heralded as the height of strategy. Players take turns using pieces with different movement patterns to try and best their opponents and take out their kings. This will also be BO3. Stalemates are a point for neither player. If 2 stalemates occur before a player wins, then it becomes BO1.

Place the right players in the right duels and this is an easy victory. Have fun.

------------------------------------------------------------
Colosseum

This week Mora and Shaymin in the Colosseum are also playing this challenge. A survey will be released to them soon where they rank these duels in order of preference. The winner of the poll between them is the event that they will face off in.

Week 4 Tribal Immunity Duel Reveal

The tribemates had 24 hours to decide who plays in which duel.

Random Battles Through The Ages - VioletValkyrie vs NinjaPenguin
Ultimate Tic Tac Toe - Senkun vs Flour
Mancala - Quaking vs Aria
Battleships - Lily vs Nick
Chess - Almonds vs Ephemera
Communication is now permitted with your opponent in your duel. However, it is not permitted with anyone else on the opposing tribe. Furthermore, if you talk about anything other than scheduling, you will be punished harshly. This isn't the time to talk game, it's solely for scheduling your duels. Include me in all communication.

The deadline for this is ideally 24 hours. However, if schedules don't align then we can make it longer. As per usual
------------------------------------------------------------
Colosseum

The survey between the Colosseum competitors tied, so it was selected randomly between the top 2 choices. Between Ultimate Tic Tac Toe and Mancala, Ultimate Tic Tac Toe was randomly selected as the event.
 
Scramble Phase
Week 4 Tribal Immunity Results

After some well-fought duels, the results are finally in!

Random Battles Through The Ages - VioletValkyrie vs NinjaPenguin
Ultimate Tic Tac Toe - Senkun vs Flour
Mancala - Quaking vs Aria
Battleships - Lily vs Nick
Chess - Almonds vs Ephemera​

I suppose when one tribe is made of the 5 highest performers in comps and the other is the lowest, this result may have been expected. Still, at least it wasn't a full sweep!

The Savvy Scramblers are going to tribal council. NinjaPenguin, Flour, Aria, Nick, and Ephemera, please discuss among yourselves when is best for all of you to do a Live Tribal Council. That's right: this phase is a tribal council where Jeff (me) is asking you questions about the game state and stirring up trouble. Furthermore, any advantages must be played during the live tribal, assuming all 5 of you can find a time to be here.

Communication between tribes is still banned. This is the tribal phase, y'all are on opposite beaches to each other.
------------------------------------------------------------
Colosseum

Mora won the duel against Shaymin and has re-entered the game. Congratulations to Mora for earning his place back in the house! He will be shipped off to the island with the rest of you Castaways later today. However, as he does not have a tribe, he's technically unable to speak with anyone right now. This will only be for the 24 hour voting period, however.

With this, the Colosseum is now closed. Thank you to all of our competitors.

This is the end of second chances. There will not be another comeback this season. If you get voted out, you're out.

The Savvy Scramblers went to tribal council after a devastating defeat. They voted out Nick in a unanimous vote. Thanks for playing Nick!
 
Scramble Phase
Week 4 Individual Immunity


Castaways, you've made merge! The Cool Conquerors and Savvy Scramblers are no more -- you're all playing individual games now. And with your newly found autonomy, I think it's time to see how well you know each other.


We will be playing Touchy Subjects. This is basically Parroting, where your aim isn't to answer these questions correctly but rather to guess the most popular answer. As a double whammy twist, however, this is both standard Parroting and Second-Place Parroting. In Second-Place Parroting, the top answer is worth 0, meaning the second-most popular answer becomes the highest scoring one! The questions are the same for both games, but scores will be calculated separately. Either be consistently the best OR second-best in order to gain immunity! The prompts are as follows:​

1. Who is the coolest person in the game?
2. Who is the most dishonest?
3. Who has yet to live up to their full potential?
4. Who is most likely to apply for real Big Brother?
5. Who would you not like to be sequestered in a house with?
6. Who would you hate to see win this game?
7. Who is the most drunk?
8. Who is most likely to be the next bitter juror?
9. Who most easily succumbs to intimidation?
10. Who is the most gullible?
11. Who would waste a million dollars the quickest?
12. Who is most likely to be arrested for punching someone in the face?
13. Who is most likely to be the one punched in the face?
14. Who has wasted a great opportunity in this game?
15. Who would you like to see win this game?

Mora returned from the Colosseum wearing a cap. This is the Chieftain's Cap. If this were a week where a Chieftainship could be earned, this would give him that power. However, as this is Survivor Week, a good old fashioned immunity will do. Mora is otherwise back in the game, will be participating in this challenge, and can talk to anyone he wants. Provisions are in place for if Mora wins immunity through this challenge despite having the Chieftain's Cap.


Y'all have 24 hours. And by the way, congrats on making Final 10! It may not seem like long ago that this season started, but we've been moving at a quick pace (which is awesome!) and we've already had 6 evictions and a comeback!

Y'all can also talk with whoever now. Go nuts.

DON'T DISCUSS YOUR ANSWERS WITH ANYONE AT ALL

Yeah, this formatting sucks.

Violet won 1st Place Parroting and Aria won 2nd Place Parroting. Congratulations on their immunities!

Mora also still has his Chieftain's Cap and is immune.

Congrats!

Y'all have 23 hours to sub a vote for anyone who isn't currently immune. Plurality wins.

This is hopefully another live tribal but the chances of scheduling it are rough. For this reason, we will instead have a semi-live tribal. Information in Discord.

Week 5 HoH

Aaaaaaand we're back to Big Brother! To celebrate our return to the standard format, we will be playing an old favourite.... Kind of.

This week's HoH comp is Pipi. This is a Winterbells clone but it's better because the clouds smile when you pass them.

Chieftain is still in play.

48 hours.
 
Conquer Phase
Week 5 PoV

Violet named Almonds and Senkun as the noms. Ephemera picked Flour and NinjaPenguin to play the veto with them. These 6 are taking part in one of the most classic flash games ever made. Featured in Club Penguin AND Veggie Tales, it's...

Ballistic Biscuit!
