ROUND FOURTEEN: AMANDA'S TORTURE DEVICE
Come on in, guys! We have an immunity here:
Come on in, guys! We have an immunity here:
In today's challenge, you'll be testing my new toy. I built these myself, and needless to say, you are in for a ride.
You will put your head into a headrest. Your feet will be on an inclined conveyer belt, which you will slip off of if you don't keep running. Your left hand will need to keep hold of the handle at all times; if you let it go, you will slide off the conveyer belt. Your right hand will need to hold onto a ball at the same time; if the ball drops, you are out.
Aka, this is the most sadistic endurance challenge I could come up with.
You're going to need to make THREE new topics. Yes, three. One will be called "Conveyer belt," another "Handle" and another "Ball." Michelle, I will NOT allow you to do all three in your one "Challenges" topic, because that is a forfeit - you have to do three topics. It's that way simply because each topic requires different kinds of posting, which is the entire point of this behemoth.
In the "Conveyer Belt" topic, you will need to post this EVERY MINUTE:
*[NAME] runs*
In the "Handle" topic, you will need to post this on the schedule below:
*[NAME] holds onto handle*
First 30 minutes: Once every 5 minutes
Second 30 minutes: Once every 3 minutes
Third 30 minutes: Once every two minutes
Fourth 30 minutes: Once a minute
Fifth 30 minutes: Twice a minute
Sixth 30 minutes: Thrice a minute
Seventh 30 minutes: Four times per minute
Everything after: Five times a minute
As your hand will tire, it will be harder to hold onto the handle. The increased amount of posting reflects this.
A sample schedule, let's say you started at 2:00:
2:00, 2:05, 2:10, 2:15, 2:20, 2:25, 2:30, 2:33, 2:36, 2:39, 2:42, 2:45, 2:48, 2:51, 2:54, 2:57, 3:00, 3:02, 3:04, 3:06, 3:08, 3:10, 3:12, 3:14, 3:16, 3:18, 3:20, 3:22, 3:24, 3:26, 3:28, 3:30, 3:31, etc.
In the "Ball" topic, you will need to post these on the schedule below:
*[NAME] rotates hand* - :x2, :x5, :x7
*[NAME] moves hand* - :x1, :x3, :x8
*[NAME] catches ball* - :x9
So at, say, 2:01, you'd move your hand, at 2:02 you'd rotate it, at 2:03 you'd move it again, at 2:04 nothing, at 2:05 rotate, at 2:06 nothing, at 2:07 rotate, at 2:08 move, at 2:09 catch, and at 2:10 nothing. You'd repeat this same cycle with the minutes for 2:11-2:20, and so on and so forth.
If you fly off the conveyer belt, you're done.
If you release the handle, you fly off the conveyer belt, and you're done.
If you drop the ball, you release the handle and fly off the conveyer belt, and you're done.
I'm not allowing any mistakes. This is The Ultimate Game, and this is the ultimate endurance challenge. Person who lasts the longest in the torture chair wins immunity and is safe from the vote. One of the losers is going to the jury.
If you have questions, give me a holler. You have until 8 PM Eastern tomorrow to start this. I will be ending the challenge at 11, like usual. Have fun guys! Survivors ready? GO!
