AOKH Survivor


How it works

You sign up. In each round, a challenge is set. You complete the challenge. The owner of the worst entry is eliminated. The last forummer to remain in the game is declared the Survivor.


The Rules

♦It is now too late to sign up, sorry. Every player has one "bye" - a free pass for one round of their choosing (not including the final round). You don't need to state when you are using your bye; if you do not submit an entry in time, your bye will be used.♦

♥If you enter a round but are eliminated, you then join the judging panel. If you fail to submit an entry and have used your bye, you are eliminated but you will not be eligible to join the judging panel.♥

♣In each round, the entries will be judged by the judging panel. The judging criteria will be made public within this thread, so you'll have a good idea of how to succeed.♣

♠The prize is a very impressive and shiny Custom Title, courtesy of Leif Ericson♠

THE FINAL

For the final, Major Helper and Watson will be racing against each other to submit the correct answers to a set of six puzzles. You may submit your answers either by email (closet.hippy(at)gmail(dot)com) or within the thread - but bear in mind, if you submit in the thread and get anything wrong, the other player may hijack your answers! You win when you get all six answers correct.

The puzzles vary in style and difficulty but you must get all of the answers correct in order to win and claim the prize of a Custom Title, courtesy of Leif Ericson. If you submit an incorrect answer, I will tell you which answer(s) you have got wrong and you may try again. There is no deadline; the round closes once one player gets all the answers correct - they are then declared the Survivor.

Puzzle One

The King is hosting a large party. So large, in fact, that he has 1000 bottles of wine to cater for his guests. However, some scallywag has poisoned one (and only one) bottle of the wine. Naturally, it would be disastrous to serve poisoned wine to the guests - and it is too late to replace it all because the party is tomorrow. Fortunately, the King has servants at his disposal; if a servant consumes even the slightest trace of the poison, he will die a few hours before the party - giving you time to remove the poisoned bottle before your guests arrive. Your servants are not indispensable, however; you must use as few servants as possible and yet be absolutely certain which bottle is the poisoned one. How many servants do you need and how do you find the poisoned bottle?

Your answer should include the number of servants and the method you would employ to find the dodgy bottle. Any method that works is acceptable (eg. use 1000 servants) but the most efficient answer (i.e. the fewest servants used) is preferable.

Puzzle Two

2: Harold
3: Edward
5: Harold
7: James

What's next? Why?

Your answer should be a number and a name. You should give the reason behind your logic. Google may help here.

Puzzle Three

This puzzle is in two parts: The first line can be decoded to give a clue towards the second part. The solution to the second puzzle is your answer.

(Part i): 843153996731471843134448413536368

(Part ii): Fclhcja'q ruk cilkqrepq.

Your answer should be easy to find once you have solved Part ii.

Puzzle Four

What has it got in its pocketses?

Puzzle Five

It came between Time and Money. What was it?

Clue: 39 years ago

Puzzle Six

William the Conqueror is BAGG. Who is BEJC?

You may not use a bye in this round.
I dislike this rule, since I'd prefer to use my bye on something as meaningless as a popularity contest.


The Vatican Nationalist Party



The Vatican Nationalist Party seek to redress the balance of separation between Church and State by restoring the voice of the Holy See within the Houses of Parliament.
Led by the guiding hand of His Holiness, Pope Popeychops I, the VNP aims to bring Christian moral values to the forefront of society while respecting the opinions and choices of others. It is our intention to institute a series of homeless shelters and soup kitchens for the vulnerable, along with increased recruitment in the emergency services. This will be paid for by increased taxation on luxury goods, especially alcohol and tobacco, which are themselves a net drain on the National Health Service.
The VNP believes that the meek will only inherit the earth if the righteous are permitted to take a stand for the cause of justice. As a result, we will hold an immediate defensive review to ensure the integrity of the Armed Forces, while retaining a no-first-use policy on all military actions, including the nation's Nuclear Deterrent.
Above all, the VNP is based on the belief that all members of society should be equally valued and that a truly integrated society must accept persons of all grounds of religious belief, whatever differences in belief exist.
We are the Church, acting in society, for society.
May the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with us all.

Origami wasn't exactly meaningful

Good point Herr, I guess if more than one person is tied for bottom place the fairest way would be to have a vote between those two players, with only the judges and the current players allowed to vote. Sound fair?

Vote: Popey* Can't let a fellow Brit down and I think he deserves my vote after a great performance in every round so far.

*subject to change, I'm a fickle fellow.
