Other Everyone Who Signs Up Will Be In This Game [Challenge 2]

[askaninjask]

As with the last thread, the first post of this thread is to list those of you who made it and those of you who did not.

The challenge was designed not only to narrow the pack of users in the game, but also to weed out the inactive FLAKES. These flakes who did not even send in their answers after I gave them an extension were:

flakes

Celever
Ultimathunder
LonelyNess
BLOOD TOTEM
Cereza

Their punishment? To change their avatar to this picture for a week, in remembrance of how much of a FLAKE they are. They needn't tell anyone else what the picture signifies - it may be their secret shame.

Secondly, there are other users who did not make it to this round: the users with the highest and lowest scores. First, let's go over the (perhaps mildly cowardly) users who scored 5 on the quiz.

5 scorers

kingofkongs
Walrein
LightWolf
Hulavuta
Crux
Deoxymoron
Archen

Next, the users who boldly chose to answer 6 questions correctly:

6 scorers

zorbees
tas
FireMage
Laurel
YAYtears

And even bolder than them, the users who scored seven!

7 scorers

vonFiedler
Ace Emerald

bold_boldest user scored 8 on the quiz:

8 scorer

Ditto

Wait, what? More than one person scored 9 on my quiz? Is anybody taking this game seriously?

9 scorers

jalmont
shinyskarmory

And there was actually a user who scored 10 out of 10 on the quiz. While I appreciate the bravery of this user, he does not seem to have understood the rules of the challenge.

10 scorer

StevenSnype

He is now eliminated. His punishment is the following: For a week, his signature must contain the following line: The user(s) who answer the most number of questions correctly will be eliminated.

You may recognize that line from the rules of challenge 1 - my hope is that while he may not have read the rules thoroughly, he will allow all those who see his posts to read them in his stead.

Similarly, there was a user who scored 0 points on the quiz.

0 scorer

UllarWarlord

He has a similar punishment, except his signature must contain the line: The user(s) who answer the fewest number of questions correctly will be eliminated.

The rest of you:

4 scorers

Acklow
TIK
billymills

And the bonus-winning 3 scorers:

3 scorers

RODAN
Eagle4

So in totality, the users who survived with bonus are:
RODAN
Eagle4
jalmont
shinyskarmory

And the users who survived without bonus are:
kingofkongs
Walrein
LightWolf
Hulavuta
Crux
Deoxymoron
Archen
zorbees
tas
FireMage
Laurel
YAYtears
vonFiedler
Ace Emerald
Ditto
Acklow
TIK
billymills

This leaves 22 total users. Will post challenge 2 as soon as I have it ready to go.

Challenge 2: What's Missing?

This next challenge is a little bit trickier. You will not beat this challenge without allies.

The rules of this challenge are this:

Players will receive either 4 sentences (5 if they won the bonus last round) via PM with several letters in each word replaced by underscores.

In order to win, you must do two things:

First, you must send me three of your sentences with the correct letters and punctuation in place of each underscore.

You must also be able to answer the question: What's missing?

The meaning of this question will become clear as you solve your puzzles.

The first 16 users to do this will move on to the next round. Everyone else will be eliminated and punished.

Note: Due to the technical nature of this challenge, I have ensured that no typos have been committed - indeed, I am so sure that I have not made any typos in the sentences of this challenge that I am putting my dignity on the line. If you find any typos in the PMed sentences as you complete this challenge, I will change my avatar and signature to the image of your choice for the remainder of the game.

There is no hard deadline to this challenge. As soon as I receive 16 correct submissions, the challenge will end.

 

[shinyskarmory]

Am willing to trade letters with anyone who contacts me!

 

[YAYtears]

Same

 

[Archen]

I will also trade letters with anyone who asks.

 

[askaninjask]

The best place to find other users also in the game is #nocowards on irc.synirc.net

 

[zorbees]

Anyone who doesn't want to do work, PM me your letters, and once I finish, I will PM you the answers. This is a legit offer.

 

[askaninjask]

A reminder: Google Docs has a monospace font, Courier New.

 

[askaninjask]

zorbees has completed the challenge and secured himself a spot in Challenge 3. He may no longer speak about the challenge to anyone still playing.

As has:
Crux

Ace Emerald
billymills

 

[JALMONT]

[YAYtears]

YAY

 

[askaninjask]

I am going to sleep like a normal human. PM me your guesses via Smogon conversation and I will check them (in the order that they were sent) when I wake up.

 

[Laurel]

i might be dead before i get this answer

 

[FireMage]

[askaninjask]

I will be giving a hint as to what's missing (because some people are very stuck) in ~10 hours.

 

[Celever]

Dude check your conversations I sent in answers. :/

Sure, I said I might edit them later but that was specifically so I wouldn't fail due to inactivity! :(

 

[Laurel]

WTF IS MISSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

 

[vonFiedler]

Anyone who doesn't want to do work, PM me your letters, and once I finish, I will PM you the answers. This is a legit offer.

Anyone who missed the first round of this, send me your letters and you'll get in as sure as zorbees group.

 

[Laurel]

if someone figures out whats missing i will give the sentences.
