I would like to formally request that BOHICA be forced to change their tribe name. It is giving me PTSD from when I was kidnapped and anally molested by pygmies in the Brazilian jungle. Thanks. :stonklol:

Does anybody remember that tv reality show Boot Camp? It had player elimination and challenges but the instructors tried to improve the players mentally and physically. I trust Goons in Platoons will do the same.

Oh, so is that what led to eventually every reality show having that one fucker who's like "I'm not here to MAKE FRIENDS" and then they inevitably do some dumb poo poo and get kicked off like five episodes in?

Convert anal beads into ball gags. We are now business partners. Promote synergy.

Tribal councils will take place here, and the thread will often be used for challenges. Outside of those times, though, you can poo poo post all you want so long as you're still in the game.

I remember that day like it was only yesterday.

We don't talk about that day. Many fine men were committed to the sea. Many more made it back ashore, but they were no longer complete men. You could see in their ravaged and ruined faces that something had been taken from them, never to be returned. Was it innocence? Sanity? Faith in humanity?

Though not all of us fought on the same side, we all met each others' eyes after the battle. No words needed to be spoken. In that moment, our hearts beat as one, filling our souls with the echoes of resounding truth:

Never again.

Come on in, guys!

You've just walked into a brand new tribe, full of strangers. You've spent three whole days together building a new home, as well as a new life. How much do you think you can trust these people?

We're about to put that to the test.

We've managed to find four underemployed locals with rickshaws, and they have all graciously agreed to drag you through town to see what the Awful Ozarks are really like. They will also take you to the location of your first challenge: the Twitch Pit.

When you arrive, your tribe will be given $400 to wager on Saltybet competitiors as you see fit, and one single account from which to do it. You will have one hour to make as much money as possible. All four tribes will start betting and cease betting on the same matches. If a bet is placed with the tribe account either before or after the designated matches, the tribe will be automatically disqualified and sent to tribal council.

Saltybet has a chat room attached. While there is only one betting account per tribe, as many tribe members as have twitch accounts and wish to participate are free to join the chat and give encouragement or advice to their betting player, and smack talk or give bad advice to the other tribes. If you don't have a twitch account, you can make one if you like. They're free.

One very important thing: Saltybet offers a premium service for real money, which offers extremely useful information which would give anyone who has it an unfair advantage. Thus, if you have a Saltybet Illuminati account, you are forbidden from logging in with it for the duration of this challenge. If we find out that anyone was passing extra information to their tribe, we will be very mad at you, and you may be penalized. So, please, just don't. You're on the honor system here, guys.

The two tribes with the most money at the end of the hour will be safe from tribal council and one step closer to the $75 grand prize. The two tribes with the least money will face the vote, and from among them WILL be the first two people voted out of this game.

This challenge has one extra twist. Over the next hour, you can win a personal reward by PMing me with a bid. Your bid will be a certain number of minutes, representing a delayed start to the challenge for your tribe. You may bid up to 30 minutes, and if there's a tie, the reward goes to the person whose PM is received first. The tribe with the highest bid will be obvious, but the individual winner will remain a secret.

Immunity is on the line. I'll give you a moment to strategize.

Challenge begins at 7pm EST sharp.

Some of you may not know what Saltybet is. Here are the basics:
  • Saltybet maintains a vast array of MUGEN characters. It will pick two at random and have them fight, best of 5, both fighters controlled by the AI.
  • There is absolutely no quality control or attempt at balancing these characters! Any fighter you see may be useless, overpowered, ridiculous, broken, or some combination of the above.
  • Before each match, the two fighters are displayed with no information given, and you have 30 seconds to make your bet. Bets are locked before the actual match begins.
  • Odds are determined by the betting pools. If you win, you recieve a share of the losing bets.
  • An example: Let's say you bet $100 on Character A. $1000 total is bet on A, and $500 on B. If A wins, you will recieve $50, because you bet 10% of the A pool, so you recieve 10% of the B pool. If you had bet $100 on B and B won, you would recieve $200 (20% of a $1000 pool).
  • You will start with $400. You cannot be reduced below $200, even if you bet all your money and lose.
If you have any further questions, now's the time to ask them.

I'm chauffeuring my mom. She's in a manic state so a 15 minute doctors appointment is turning in to 'I need to go to the bank, and to bed bath and beyond, and Barnes and noble, I'm hungry so let's go to a steak house.' I had to remind her that thirty minutes isn't enough time to do any shopping.

If she hears something she doesn't want to hear it might also involve yelling, or crying at me again. Especially if she gets mad that I narced her out to her doctor. Thankfully that should mean going straight to home. Otherwise I'll try to play by phone.
