The Creator Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 4.10 "The Last That Could Be Done" (cont) CEDAR acquired Riczhang's power chip two weeks ago when he won the first Legend Challenge. This made CEDAR the deadliest player of them all, as this Legend Power Chip packs one hell of a punch. This week, CEDAR, enraged by the loss of his Shadowkiller companion of two seasons Acsc1312, continues his quest of revenge by enacting the greatest fatalities. He already wiped out Numbers and DoctorWho's point slates, but now he targets his enemies in a different way. Doc has escaped CEDAR's wrath by going into hiding for the next couple of weeks, but Numbers remains unsafe. Scorned by Numbers and DoctorWho, CEDAR is taking his aggression out in a most unexpected way. Below we finally reveal the darkest of the Legend Power Chips. Some of you may have guessed at it. Here. It. Is. RICZHANG'S POWER CHIP (used by CEDAR): Riczhang won last season and was declared the Lone Legend. As a result, he was given the greatest of the Legend Power Chips to use at his discretion. Surprisingly, there are no failsafes built into it to control the amount of power it gives the user. We know CEDAR is power-driven, as has been seen in past seasons and in particular these past two weeks. Now that CEDAR has access to this, he has the will to do as he pleases. The power chip is... an Elimination Power Chip. The use of this allows CEDAR to eliminate any player of his choice. For the past few weeks, those in the background who knew of this chip's usefullness assumed that CEDAR would eliminate Numbers, because Numbers was the seasonal frontrunner. But CEDAR already took out his aggression on Numbers and knows that perhaps a key part of "Box Office Alliance" is actually working with those who are equal to, and at times better than, you. So CEDAR wants instead to make an ally out of Numbers...but to do that, he must first remove an unexpected link...Numbers' sole remaining partner on "The Earth Shakers." Doc has withdrawn himself, leaving Numbers allied only to one other player. If CEDAR removes that player, he will bring Numbers into his power. And so, CEDAR has targeted 24Lost. This player put up an amazing run and often kept to the shadows this season. He avoided the Challenge and was a very skilled predictor...but in a moment of fate, CEDAR has cashed Riczhang's power chip, and now 24Lost has been eliminated. Dun. dun dun dun... But now, CEDAR must choose what to do with Numbers. He has thought him a threat, an enemy...and now, an ally? CEDAR has decided the best way to avoid retribution from Numbers is to ally himself to Numbers. In a bold move, CEDAR brings Numbers onto the most devoutly powerful team in play... "The Shadowkillers." Numbers now joins CEDAR and Riczhang, and the odds are definitely in their favor. Who the hell saw that coming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Kind of a harsh Power Chip though. Lost doesn't even get to put up a fight. Maybe Creator will give him an opportunity to come back in if he passes a challenge. I feel like a mercenary with all this team-switching.

The Creator Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 So does Goffe get 24Lost's points? Yeah, as Goffe still possesses that chip for now. But this isn't even the most surprising thing to happen this week. On 24Lost, while it is harsh, I'm about 85% certain he would have been eliminated this week anyways as he would have likely been sent into The Challenge, and he doesn't have the time to answer the questions, or so it seems. So this way, at least 2 people will be eliminated this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a future modification of the Chip to consider is that instead of eliminating someone specifically, it forces a whole Team into a preliminary Challenge where the loser is eliminated. And this Challenge of course takes effect prior to the normal Challenge. Just a thought for a future season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Shorts Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) Prediction: not eliminating numbers when he had the chance will bite Cedar in the ass within the next 2/3 weeks. Edited June 27, 2013 by Jim Shorts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Prediction: not eliminating numbers when he had the chance will bite Cedar in the ass within the next 2/3 weeks. I don't think so.

The Creator Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 The Challenge - Week 10 The Shadowkillers thought they had it all figured out. By eliminating the player with the lowest number of points and by taking the one with the next lowest number of points for their own, they figured everyone else would buy multiple immunities, thus reducing their massive point counts (as there are players with point counts upwards of 40 points (and, in one case, 50+)). They thought the players would buy immunity after immunity until their point counts ran out. They were wrong. Only a select few of the participants decided to purchase immunities at all, deciding rather that they would enter this Challenge. Immunities were taken from each of the following for 9 points: Goffe, Jim Shorts, and Chasmmi. Two players within the rankings around these three players did not purchase immunity, so the two players entering The Challenge this week are... CHD!...for the second week in a row. This time, he'll be squaring off against... SPAGHETTI! An unexpected match-up without a doubt. Who knows where this one will wind up? Here is their Challenge; 1. Predict Monsters University's Thursday per theater average 2. Predict World War Z's Thursday gross 3. Predict Man of Steel's Thursday percent drop from last Thursday DEADLINE: FRIDAY, JUNE 28 AT 5:00 A.M. EASTERN (4:00 A.M. CENTRAL) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Creator Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 The Legend Challenge - Round 3 Now the big reveal I've been waiting for. Every team this season had one Legend to represent them at some point. "The Earth Seekers" had DoctorWho, "The Equation Sensation" has Goffe, "The Destroyers of Evil" had Alfred, and of course, "The Shadowkillers" had the most. Every team had some Legend to help carry them through the most turbulent and trying games...every team, but one. "The Gold Seekers" have passed 10 weeks without a Legend to represent them, have entered 3 Challenges, and have survived without the backing of someone with a Power Chip. How could this have been allowed to happen, while each of the other teams had chips in play to help them get what they wanted? It's simple really. "The Gold Seekers" have a protector now...sort of. In a way, he represents them. But then again, he technically represents everyone. However, in this and other Legend Challenges, he will be acting in "The Gold Seekers'" favor, simply because they have no one else to enter these Challenges for them. This is a pleasant surprise, and "The Gold Seekers" should be elated to have this participant represent them in this week's Legend Challenge. ...it's The Creator. There will no bias here. Of course not. But The Creator will be representing "The Gold Seekers" in this week's Legend Challenge. If he wins, "The Gold Seekers" will reap benefits. If he loses, well, we'll get to that. But most of the Legends are exempt from this Challenge now that they've cashed in their chips. Right? ...wrong! This week, all the Legends will return to enter this Challenge. If they score higher than The Creator, they will receive certain benefits. If they score lower, they will receive certain punishments. But there are no exemptions. All must participate, and if you don't show up...you might face a terrible fate. Here is the Legend Challenge - Round 3: 1. Predict Monster University's and World War Z's combined Thursday gross 2. Predict the difference in per theater averages between World War Z and Man of Steel on Thursday 3. Predict This is the End's Thursday percent drop from last Thursday DEADLINE: FRIDAY, JUNE 28 AT 5:00 A.M. EASTERN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
