  • Twenty-four people who sign up will be divided into three teams.
  • Teams will participate in challenges that test speed, trust, teamwork, and whatever else Guy and I want.
  • Challenges will range from puzzles to competitive Pokemon battling, from quizzes/mind games to chess. TS;DR version: Random!
  • For this game there will be three twists.
  • FIRST TWIST: Three Teams
  • Once the challenges are over, eliminations will begin. Discussion of the challenge will also happen.
  • SECOND TWIST: The team that gets first safe from elimination, second will vote someone off FOREVER, and last will vote someone off to join the team that got first.
    After there are ten people left, teams will merge into one. Only the person that wins will be safe from elimination.
  • THIRD TWIST: To be revealed later.
  • The last person standing gets added to the Wall of Fame. Once we have ten different people in the Wall of Fame, we'll have a special game where only they can play in.
  • Join #TheChallenge to discuss the game.
  • ***NEW*** Guy and DNA are running it. You will be completely at our mercy.
  • ***NEW*** The whole game is based around the number three.

[Challenge 1]Team-Building Exercise!
And so the three newly-formed teams went and decided to put their heads together, to figure out what person would lead them, as well as which of the three weather titans would represent them in battle. They ultimately decided on PMJ to lead Groudon's "Suns of Pokebeach", TDL to lead Kyogre's "Hurricane in Rain", and Bippa to lead Rayquaza's "The Air Lockers".

[Challenge 2]Popularity Contest
The teams were initially put to the test with a popularity contest; each team had a couple days to design a Youtube video which would get the most hits in 56 hours. The battle was close, with Hurricane in Rain uploading first but Suns of Pokebeach quickly catching up. In the end, the Suns beat Hurricane by a scant 5 views, whereas the Air Lockers were left behind in the dust. Hurricane chose to eliminate Legend, whereas Air Lockers gave Lucky Fire over to the Suns as a tribute.

[Challenge 3]Short Story "S"elebration
The teams were then asked to use their skills in writing to try and put together three stories for their team, each of which revolved around the number 3 in some form or fashion. This round was no contest for the Air Lockers, who promptly sent in 3 stories in quick fashion, whereas the other two teams only bothered to send in 1 each. Air Lockers take the cake, gaining Ice-Dragon★Kyurem from the Suns in the process, whereas Hurricane asks alexmf2 to leave the game permanently.

[Challenge 4]Paint a Pretty Picture
And so the teams were thrust into the action once again, this time to create a picture that would be chess-related in some form or fashion. Despite the long deadline ahead, Suns of Pokebeach failed to produce anything, whereas the two contenders who did send them in had nearly identical total scores. Fortunately, Hurricane in Rain got the win it desperately needed, gaining the newly-instated CFOURCOLTSFAN from the Suns, and the Air Lockers kicked off Ice-Dragon★Kyurem permanently.

[Challenge 5]Who Done It?
In this round, each team was shown 3 works each from 3 different categories of things (pictures, short stories, and Cleverbot stories) for a total of 9, and each team had to guess who out of DNA and Guy made each one. In a surprising upset, Hurricane in Rain and the Air Lockers both got a perfect 9 out of 9, but Hurricane won the tie-breaker. The Air Lockers kicked off Cinesra, whereas the Suns, with only a paltry 4 out of 9, surrendered Reshiwott to the Hurricane.

[Challenge 6]It's a Treasure Hunt!
And thus Guy designed a forum treasure hunt. Done in true Bacon style, this involved each team looking for Guy's posts and looking for clues to where they'd be heading next. Each new destination and a word and a clue to the next place. The Hurricane won these challenges like a Long John Silver, where as Suns of Pokebeach trailed behind and Air Lockers even behind them. Suns kicked off Chillarmy (sorta, since they didn't send in many votes), and Infinity got handed over from Rain to Hurricane.

[Challenge 7]Do you know the People you Play With?
Questionnaire time! The teams had fun developing questions that they would develop for the other teams - true/false ones, to be exact. The team who knew the most about their competitors would be the winner. And, out of a series of 20 multiple choice questions for each team to answer (10 per team), Hurricane took the prize, again, leaving Air Lockers and finally Suns eating their rainy dust. Mokoko left Air, whereas Hurricane snatched away ShadowLugia from the Suns.

[Challenge 8]One Day we went to the Beach...
...in the form of a logic puzzle! We got to see TDL swimming in a bikini, PMJ fishing in a speedo, and DNA playing Pokemon cards underwater in record time! Wait, maybe I got that all mixed up. Anyway, the Hurricane were the first to crack the riddle, thus keeping all their members (way too many of them). The Suns came in 2nd and voted off CarlosDuranJr, and although Air came in last, it didn't matter who they sent to the winners, because as of right now, the teams are officially disbanded.

[Challenge 9]Majority Questionnaire
And now that the teams are disbanded, why not start with something simple? A basic questionnaire was devised. Basically, the person to get the most questions right would receive immunities - or rather, the top 3 scorers, since that's how immunities work now. The top 3 scorers ended up being Reshiwott, Eevee, and Infinity, so they were immune to being voted off this round. Who did get voted off? Porygon-X. At least his art is remembered.

[Challenge 10]Russian Fun
In Soviet Russia, Tetris plays you! The contest - play Tetris Survival and get as high of a score as you can! PMJ, like a boss, being used to this game, got a basically unbeatable score, leaving the rest of the players to hang their heads in shame, but Glace and Matryoshka did pretty good too. The low scorer, Infinity, was sent out of the Challenge, hanging his head in shame, whereas Blah, CFOURCOLTSFAN, and ShadowLugia were all ousted because they didn't have enough passion for this game.

[Challenge 11]Spoiler Alert!

Each player shuffles his or her hand into his or her deck. Then, each player draws a number of cards equal to the number of his or her remaining Prize cards.

... I mean in.
 
Rocket's Admin.?
Oh.

That was a terrible joke. Now I have to get Not-TDL to eat you and Gliscor to outspeed you.
 
I got all your apps. I'm currently up to 17 people, which means there are still seven slots available.
 
If that Volcarona is the uber-epic Hail-based set, I'd buy that Bippa would be positively decimated by it.

And Afro...that was lame.
