Multifaction/FFA Genius Game - Grand Final - Main Match 3 (Draft Mafia)

[zorbees]

i might be late on sunday but it shouldnt be more than an hour or so

UncleSam LightWolf

Asek said he can't play until Sunday, but could play on a later day if needed. Timewise, he has a tight window of 5 PM PST to ~ 7 PM PST (said he needs to leave by 7:40).

 

[UncleSam]

I'm setting the time for Writing to be at 5 PM PST on Sunday.

Due to zorbees wanting to push logic back a bit I'll say that Math will move up to 1 PM PST on Sunday, and I'll move Logic to 2 PM PST. zorbees Isa let me know if that still works for you.

DLE and ifm can hopefully do History tomorrow night. If Flyhn and ItzViper482 can do around 2:45 PST on Sunday (aka right after Logic is over), that would be ideal. Any time before the Writing honestly.

Lightwolf's analytical writing skills:

"You will be regretting choice later, that you can be sure of, though not by my hands sadly, and that you should have realized."

glad this quote is still circulating

 

[UncleSam]

I'm pretty sure it was our hands though

Gotta make sure we get it right boys cmon now

Also idiotfrommars can you give an estimate as to when you can do history?

 

[Da Letter El]

In a 9-0 decision, Supreme Leader UncleSam has ruled in favor of Da Letter El in the case of DLE v. ifm.

 

[UncleSam]

lol

Good game to DLE and IFM, the questions (and who answered them correctly), are listed here.

 

[UncleSam]

Blazade won a tough Math challenge over VigVig, levelling the team score at 1-1

 

[UncleSam]

zorbees bested isa in a very close Logic challenge, and viper bested Flyhn in Pass Code, so Team zorbees is the winner! Writing will still take place for garnets / it could well influence voting on deathmatch stuff.

Ggs all

 

[UncleSam]

The Logic challenge can be found here, and the hint can be found here. I didn't save the deathmatch log.

 

[UncleSam]

The Writing challenge is over, with zorbees winning over DLE by 4 off the strength of the +5 from the bonus (results here).

Submissions:
DLE: here
zorbees: here

I would note that, officially, these results impact LightWolf and Asek, neither of whom showed up for the challenge at the specified time.

It is now time for voting.

The players on Team LightWolf, namely Da Letter El, LightWolf, Isa, Flyhn, and VigilanteVigoroth, now have to vote for who they thought was the best player on their team (or contributed the most to the teams' success), and for who they thought was the worst player (or contributed the least). You may not vote for the same player for both (lol), and you may not vote for yourself for best.

DLE has a +1 vote for the best vote, and will win ties. DLE is not eligible for the worst vote. These bonuses are due to winning his individual task.

All players on Team zorbees, with the exception of idiotfrommars, have earned immunity. They are not eligible for being selected for the death match by the death match candidate.

Please send in votes ASAP, but I will be closing voting in 22 hours (or at 5 PM PST) tomorrow regardless.

 

[UncleSam]

Final garnet count (pre-deathmatch):
zorbees - 15
Da Letter El - 12
Asek - 12
Blazade - 11
idiotfrommars - 10
Flyhn - 10
VigilanteVigoroth - 10
LightWolf - 9
ItzViper482 - 9
Isa - 7

Let me know if you think I messed something up in calculating your garnets. These should take into account bonuses from the most recent main match.

 

[UncleSam]

Well LightWolf has been voted, unanimously (with one abstaining), for the deathmatch candidacy. With 3 votes to 2 (with one abstaining), Da Letter El has been voted for immunity.

LightWolf may now select any of his own team outside of DLE, or idiotfrommars, to be his opponent in the death match.

 

[LightWolf]

Flyhn does have 10 garnets. Sounds yummy.

 

[UncleSam]

Alright well LightWolf has chosen Flyhn to be his death match opponent. I'll give you two 24 hours to schedule something and if not I'll set a time for Thursday or Friday. Try to see if you can agree on a game to play.

 

[UncleSam]

Yo guys have you contacted each other at all

I'm gonna say 1 PM PST on Saturday is the death match time unless you two agree on a different time. If this doesn't work for you then message the other person and find a time that does.

 

[Blazade]

Are we making any progress here? What's going on?

 

[Wayan Vistar]

Should be today once I'm home from school. Should. I'll be there at least

 

[UncleSam]

LightEolf didn't show up Saturday or Sunday o I'm gonna say show up tonight or I'll seriously think about DQing you

At least respond to my PMs and give a time when you can do the Dm

I have an actuarial exam on Friday, and will post the next main match Friday night. Sorry for the delay - I just don't really have much time right now.

 

[UncleSam]

Hey guys good news is I passed my test woo

There's not really any bad news other than I'm not ready to post the challenge yet but will later tonight

 

[UncleSam]

Unfortunately the two ideas I'm stoked about are too hard to handle with 9 so we are gonna do the simple idea for this round.

Main Match 9 - Pokemon Battle Royale

Ya, let’s just do this.

Send me any Pokemon with any moveset. I will reveal every pick, but nothing about movesets outside of level and gender.

The Royale will last for as many rounds as possible until there is one Pokemon left standing. I will make everything public - the players' move selections, targets, and my own randomized rolls in #circus every 24 hours.

I’ll say you all have 48 hours to send me Pokemon picks and movesets. However, you can also buy certain bonuses with garnets:

1 garnet - Buy an extra moveslot
2 garnets - Buy an extra item (please nothing that conflicts with another item you hold)
6 garnets - Buy a second Pokemon

I'll give 2 garnets for each KO, 3 garnets for surviving past the halfway point (aka making it to the top four), and 4 garnets each to the players who survive the longest and directly deal the most damage (directly meaning via direct attacks). I'll also give a token of life to the player who does the best according to the following criteria:
Your points total will be based off of your final placement in the standings (1st through 9th), and the Smogon tier of the Pokemon you select. Note that if you select a level 1 Pokemon, it's tier will be assumed to be UU.

For every tier down from Anything Goes (Uber, OU, BL, UU, etc.), you will deduct one point from your score. Whoever has the lowest score will win (so, if you come in third with a UU Pokemon you will have 3 - 4 = -1 points, thus having a better score than someone who placed first with an Uber Pokemon). I will give six garnets to the winner based on points, 4 to second, and 2 to third. I will also give a second token of life to the winner based on points to give to any player he or she selects.

The loser will also be based on points. That will be the deathmatch candidate.

 

[UncleSam]

On second thought, I will be publicizing all Pokemon builds
