To Al: I'm not sure why you threw the torch to the ceiling. Mind explaining?

 

To Skater Boy: Yes, you've lost your cardboard. No replacement.

 

But I had to choose one loser...I could pick Neil or Kjo or Skater Boy or Al, cause they all used their knives...Soit was down to NiKo and Captain Wing...and I went for the second...Sorry captain, but your story was the worst (and the shortest). And it had a glitch: you said you lighted the torch, but it was already lit...so you didn't even use one of your items...and I don't know much about bioligie, but I doubt ants burn that well...and if they attacked with enough, you would need more then a mere torch to keep them away...

 

So Captain Wing is out...his ghost is locked up in a place we'll get to later...I'll post the next task tomorrow...

 

Eh.. Oh well I don't mind. At least i'll come back later!

Deadmeat sais :thumbsup: to Al's plan...I just don't know how you donate points...

 

 

Alright, let's get on with the game...

 

 

 

After the ants are all chopped to pieces, the door on the other side (wich Kjo was already giving a beating with his sword) opens, and you walk along...

 

...after 50 meters, one of you steps on a strange tile. You hear a click, and then suddenly, from the ceiling bars come down. By pure coincidence (muhahaha) you're all seperated by the bars...you can't reach eachother, but you can give items to eachother if you want...

 

***Task two***

Suddenly, you hear another strange noice, and than the ceiling starts lowering...slowly but steady...get out of your prison, before you're crushed...

***************

 

Some notes:

-Each 'prison' is next to the corridor you came from, in other words: once you've escaped from your cell, you won't have to go trough the other cells as well.

-The bars are too close to slip between.

-The bars can't be cut, not even by Kjo's very strong sword with the difficult name...

 

Alright, have fun...deadline: wednesday 26-03-2003.

ooh, a toughy. okay, prepare to see the wrath of neil.

 

i look around for a way out of this, but see nothing. there is a torch in each cell (there has to be something). i take mine and throws it through the bars (our arms can fit right?) to the far side of the room. the far side is lighted up so i can see everything there. there are paintings on the wall and below the paintings are lots of levers and buttons which probably control the bars and ceiling (because it would be no fun if there was no way out for poor little neil).

 

i throw my grappling hook (with rope) onto one of the levers and pull. the lever moves and the ceiling in the cell next to mine stops, but the levers seem to be attached to a spring of some sort and want to get back into place. this isn't helping me, so i free the grapple, pull it back in and try another lever. i do this until i find mine and pull. the ceiling stops, but the lever wants to go back and i can't hold it for ever. i tie the rope to one of the bars of my cell so it is kept tight. now all i have to worry about is geting out of here. but disaster stikes! the torch i threw caught fire to one of the paintings. the painting burns fast (probably an oil painting) and then falls off the wall and lands underneath the rope with the grapple. the flames only just touch the rope, but slowly and slowly, the rope starts to burn. one by one strands of the rope start to break. i'm done for.

 

i stay calm and look for a way out. i look over at the control panel. there are five blue buttons and one red one. one of them opens my cell, the others open other peoples cells (i'm guessing), i don't know about the red one. i have to work out which one is mine before the time runs out (see, i'm racing against time, is this intense or what, John Woo, eat your heart out!) i look around but find no rocks or pebbles, all i have to throw is my knife so i'll have to get it right. the rope burns even more. i always believed in fate so i was hoping i wouldn't get this wrong. more strands of the rope break. i closed my eyes and got out my knife. this was going to be a one in a million shot. luckily for me, one in a million shots happen to me nine times out of ten.

 

the rope burns

 

my eyes still shut, i get out my knife, spin it on my finger (just for effect) and then throw it. i open my eyes.

 

the knife hits the big red button.

 

the door to the big room opens (not to any cells, but to the room with the cells in it). the extra oxygen from the other room this door has opened out to makes the flames of the painting combust and burn the rope (but it's still quite long). the rope snaps. the level springs forwards launching the grapple to the wall. it rebounds off the wall and hits a button. the door to my cell opens and i leap out just as the ceiling drops down from the pressure of the lever being held back so much.

 

oooooooooooh yeah!:cool:

 

epilogue. i retrieve my knife abd grapple, untie my rope and tie it back to the grapple. still got my items.

well, im imagining the celling has holes in it or the bars will be crushed by the celling.

since in neils the ceiling already droped (and im assuming we r all under the same celling) i ll pretend he was the last one to get out.

 

 

anyways, im on the other side of neil's cage, and i cant see anything hes doing. Skate boy is in another cage at my left. He sits down, despaired. i look up. the celling is 5 meters high, and its lowering slowly, but not as slowly as i wish it was. I quickly take out my pocket knife and try to cut the bars, in vain. wot else do i have in this knife... theres a bottle opener and a pen... nothing usefull.

I look around. its too dark to see further than a couple of meters. at my right theres just a wall of big stones, each is a size, but most of them must b 50x20cm. a rat starts climbing on my leg, but i shake him loose. he runs scared and... AHA! he enters a little hole in the wall. the clay behind the stones in that part of the wall must be loose. i try to reach the hole with my foot. almost.

 

i attach my rubberband to my knife. firm. after a couple of tries, i manage to get it stuck right over the hole, in between 2 stones. i can touch the other side of the knife with my toes. luckly for me, i forgot the bottle opener part sticking out. i can get that stuck in the wall too. pull a couple of times, yep, quite firm.

ME: hey, skateboy, is can u see kjo from where you are?

SB: yes, hes right next to me.

ME: ask him if i can borrow his rope with hooks

SB turns around and talks to kjo (i assume he is talking to kjo, its too dark for me to see). he turns back and gives me kjo's rope.

 

i throw it at some places on the wall, but in none of them it sticks.

 

ME: hey, skateboy

SB: yeah?

ME: i need a big knife.

SB: here, take my cooking knife

 

i attach his cooking knife to the other side of kjo's rope. then, i throw his coking knife at a lil stone, close the the place my pocket knife is attached. i finally manage to take out the lil stone.

 

ME: here, skateboy, take your knife back.

 

the celling has lowered almost 3 meters already. its close to my head (well, closer than i hoped it would be). i have to hit kjo's hooks in the hole. missed. missed again, missed, damnit, missed, got it! yes!! finally. i pull them the strongest i can, but i dont see it moving. i give one rope to Skate boy.

We pull it together untill some boulders come loose. my knife escapes from the clay and comes flying towards me. thankfully it doest hit me. SB keeps pulling it. just a little more now. 2 boulders come out and that part of the wall collapses. clay, sand and lil rocks spread around. other stones came out, and bring down with them huge logs that belonged to the inner structure of the wall. a lot of them come toward my cage, damaging the bars, but not enough.

 

i give kjo's hooks back. the celling is 2 meters high

 

i try to pic one of the logs, one that measures about 2 meters. theyre really heavy, but i have to use all my strengh and stick one in between the bars, a lil inclined. the celing is almost touching it, and its still lowering down. i hold it as tight as i can, for all means i cannot allow it to fall. the celling starts crushing the log and the log moves like if it was bravely fighting to fall inside or outside my cage. i hold it even tighter, cant let it fall. the celling is pressuring the log down, and since the log is inclined, it starts to pressure the bars to open wide. all i have to do is to hold it standing. if it falls, i wont be able to stick it in betweent the bars again, and i might not find another smaller log. after a couple of minutes my arms are awfully tired, and burning in pain. i cannot let it fall. i scream in pain. the bars have bend, but not enough. my veins are pulsing on my arms at skin level some of the capilars have exploded from the pressure of my muscles, now as hardened as possible.

 

finally, after an eternity of pain, the bars bends enough for me to pass. i kick the log with my both legs a couple of times, and then jump out of my cage. im laying on my back, cant move a muscle. my arms wont stop shaking, they dont respond to my commands. but now i can rest. looking from the ground the celling isnt as low as i though it would be. but it still comes down, crushing the bent bars like butter.

 

i look left and right. have to help the others, i gotta escape. cant get up. i just need some rest. maybe a couple of minutes. a couple of minutes wont kill me...

 

 

 

 

 

deadmeat, since u r the host, y dont u ask a mod to give out some points for the winners?

i was thinking every1 would get points, but with emphasis on the host and the first 2 players (shouldnt be a big diference, since the first player already gets to host the next bliss)

oh boy, this doesnt look good...and I'm clueless of what to do...

 

hmm...lets think.. i dont see any (original :p ) way out. i could just depend on the others to save me. but i wouldnt count on that...

while i stand hopeless in my cage, seeing my whole life pass before my eyes, i see a rat entering my cage. (it's small enough to come between the bars) i dont know why, but i try to catch it. the lil' bastards slips between my fingers and crawls under a crack in the floor...hmm..a crack...if i only were the size of that rat, i could crawl thrue that crack and get out...

i bend over and try digging up the crack to make it bigger...it's no use, my hands just arent ment for digging or chewing thrue stuff like that lil' rat...i stand back up...OUCH!!

i hit my head on the ceiling, that seems to be much lower than before...

suddenly i get an idea, i take out my rat whistle and blow it...out of the darkness i can hear squeeking noises...many of them...before i know it, at least 90 sumthin rats run into my cage...great! now if only i could get them to dig up the crack, it would be big enough for me to squeeze thrue...

AAH! some of the rats crawl up my clothes...i try to shake them out...the others seem amused by my little dance...

i manage to get the rats out of my pants...pheew..

why did they even try to crawl into my pockets!? there's nothing intersting there for them...just this stinky gooey fudge...it really stinks....sniff...smells a lil like...cheese!?

the smell of the fudge resembles the smell of cheese...

that's why the rats tried to take it...

hmm...

i take just a lil bit of the goo, and stick it deep deep in the hole the first rat has digged... i step back and watch as the rats start digging up the crack like maniacks, fighting for the cheese...

i wait...*bump* ouch!...this celing is really getting on my nerves...

now, i throw a lil' fudge out of the cage, and put a large enough rock on the hole they digged so they cant come out...they sense the smell of the cheese on the other side of the cage, but cant get out cause of the rock..i think this rock is made by a large chunk of diamnond! that's why the rats cant chew thru it...

they dig all the way to the other side of the cage, fight over the goo, and then they go away...

i remove the rock..admire it's beauty...then i crawl into the hole the rats digged, it's narrow, but i manage to crawl out the other side..with just a few scratches..i'm free! and i still have all my items with me

 

 

if you didnt understand i can draw my plan for you

:)

by the way, Al, the celiengs are independant of each other so just because mine dropped, doesn't mea yours did at the same time. mine dropped because it was held back for so long but everyone elses didn't. well, that's how i've done it at least.

First I think that there is not enough room in hear to swing my sword once for a Kaze no Kizu (Meaning that Deadmeat probably won't let me). So, instead I take out my sheid and expand it a bit, And use Tesusiaga and attack the ceiling, Which I'm guessing is stone. If it's allowed, I swing up, which there is room, for a Kaze no Kizu (If it's allowed, otherwise I keep attacking the ceiling by normal means) Some of the rock cracks and falls on my shield, which I prop up the rocks, just in case.

Ducking down, so that the wall, if it comes to near will hit the stacked rocks first and try and get through them, if the wall keeps going all the way down, or if it stops because about a foot or two is missing.

Uses my hook to through and retrieve some of the sticky stuff the other players have and applies it to the top of the bars, high up so that the ceiling might get stuck on the way down aswell, I need insurance for my insurance, then using my sheild, I put it in between the bars, sideways, then twist it, with the help of Tetsusiaga until the bars finally bend, a little. I look up and the ceiling is only about 5-7 meters away and coming down slower, thanks to the glue. Then using the bent bars, I shove the tip of Tetsusiaga into the crack that the bars left when they bent on the ground, and crumble up the floor with some hacking, and get to the bottom of where the bar is is being held in and with space of a good 25 cm radius hole, I move the bar a little to the side and slip through to the next chamber, with my items and giving back the glue is possible.

 

PS - Kaze no Kizu is Japanese for Wound of the Wind. Inuyasha uses it to cause a huge power come from his sword like wind that can destroy 100 evil demons in one swing.

PSS - (Is PSS right or PPS?) When I said jabbing Tetsusiaga in the crack that was made by bending I mean like if you stick a pencil in a pencil sharpener, there could be some space on the side, if you move it to one side. Thats where I jabbed Tetsusiaga, and the hole I made is like a small crater, after hacking around the bar so I can move it to the side and get more room to slip out on the bottom.

I thought only I was able to brutally kill everyone...:(

 

(note: somehow, the 'n00bs' - no offense - are gone and the regulars stay...coincidence...?)

 

 

 

Anyway, Skate Boy is out...

 

 

You continue your dangerous journey. After wandering trough the corridors for a couple of hours, you come to the top of a pit. There seems to be no way out. One of you throws a torch in the pit, to see how deep it is...As the torch falls, you suddenly see a door on the other side of the pit, about 100 meters below your current position. There's no stairs, no elevators, no nothing. The pit is about 50 meters wide.

 

***Task three***

Get to the door in the pit. In one piece.

*************

 

(note: the ants had Mad Cow Disease. You'll all die in 50 hours. But hey, only one of you will live that long, and the antidote is right outside the exit. Never say I can't poison you)

 

And yes, it's PPS (post-post-scriptum, so the writing that comes after the post-scriptum)

 

 

 

This is not the mark of Meksilon

oh, this was just too easy, i'll have to liven it up a bit.

 

i use my grappling hook (on a rope :D) with the other side of the top of the pit (the bit with the door on it). the spikes of the grapple dig into the earth opn theotherside quite well and sturdy, or so i think ;). i jump from the edge of the pit downwards, holding the rope in my hand (i could have tied it round my waist or something, but this looks more cool :cool: ) when all the slack of the rope is gone and it finally catches me, i swing toward the door. perfect. but then, disaster strikes, the earth my grapple was attached to gives way and i free fall down the pit. i have a lot of forward momentum from the swing, but not enough and i start decending at an allarming rate before i reach the other side of the pit. when i come close to the other side of the pit (i do not hit it) i start to fall parralel to the wall on the other side. i am falling at an alarming rate. i quickly get out my sword and thrust it into the wall before me. it diggs into the wall slowing my fall down considerably before i finally stop and the sword is jammed nito the wall. i look up and find that i have fallen quite a way from the top, the door is a good 200 feet above me. i had let go of the rope when i started falling, but as the grapple falls past me, i grab it again. with one hand holding onto the sword and my feet laid firmly on the wall, i swing the grapple round my head and then let go. the grapple falls past me as i let go of it when it was going down. it is then i realise that whenever you swing something round your head, it's never garunteed to go the way you want it. luckily this time, i had expertly tied it round my waist (i say expertly because i had to do it with one hand). i get the grapple back and throw it again, this time without swinging it. it doesn't reach the door as it is a long rope, but not long enough. but it does stick into the wall. i start to scale the wall, freeing my sword and putting it back on my belt as i do so. when i reach the grapple, i free it and throw it again. i do this three times before i reach the door. then i open the door (it's locked, but i open it with my expert skills with locks and knives), and walk through. i can't believe whats on the other side. but before i tell anyone, i wait for the rest of them.

I Jab Tetsusiaga into the ground, make sure it's sturdy and won't snap, it won't it's very strong, like I said. Then wrap my hook around Tesusiaga and let one of the hooks clamp on. I tug it a few times. It seems ok.

Then I jump down the pit, holding the rope. I use my feet to stop myself on the side as I lower myself. My rope then runs out about 5/8 of the way down. So i take out my sheild, expand it, and give a large tug, bringing down Tetsusiaga and my rope/hook. I grab Tetsusiaga on the way down and jab it into the wall and as it slows my fall considerably, I finnally land on my shoulder, with the sheil protecting it, causing only a small bruise.

Then I get up and put my stuff away to wait for the others.

My stomach cramps up.

Ugghhh.... was it something I ate?

hang on, i don't get it. weren't we meant to get to the door? or did i just do a whole loada crap do go the complete wrong way becasue i'm pretty sure k-jo's now at the bottom of the pit waiting for the rest. someone correct me on something (either say k-jo is at the door with me and i misread him, or k-jo's at the bottom and he's the one who's wrong because, no offence k-jo, but i really want to be right)
