THE 14TH CHALLENGE OF HDC BATTLE ROYALE III Welcome, Lycans & Wraiths alike - some new some old, to the FOURTEENTH CHALLENGE of BATTLE ROYALE III. I have chosen Demonwraith JENNA26 to SIT OUT of this Challenge. The guards will escort her to the dungeon till the Results Meeting is over. You have to name the following:-
There are 480 points up for grabs in the above challenge. THE FIRST ALL-CORRECT ENTRY I RECEIVE WILL WIN A TRIP TO THE REWARD CHAMBER, WHERE A SPECIAL BUMPER BONUS AWAITS THEM! The deadline for sending your entries ends on Thursday, 24th June at NOON EST. You may either send me your entries via PMs, or you may email me at [email protected], mentioning your HDC Nick in the Subject alongwith the Challenge number, for e.g., "Bwind22 - HDC Battle Royale III Challenge #14 Answers." You may confer within members of your own team in your quest for the right answers, but each Battle Royale participant should send in his/her own individual entry. DEMONWRAITH JENNA26 IS SITTING OUT THIS CHALLENGE! All the best, folks! |
Do the predator weapons have to have been seen in a film?
|
Naturally.
All questions are related to movies only. |
Also, for the Zombie characters, it can include characters who were human and then changed during the course of the film, right?
|
Yep. Naming the films would help me, if you can.

UPDATE
SEVEN entries in so far. With Despare dead (much to the relief of the Wraiths), will everyone else be able to send in their entries? Or will someone else emerge to become Despare II? Let's wait and see... |
RESULTS OF BATTLE ROYALE III CHALLENGE #14 Welcome, Lycans & Demonwraiths, to the 14th BATTLE ROYALE III Results Meeting. The deadline was up 11 hours ago so let's see what this meeting unfolds. There are too many correct answers to list here so I ll post some of them :-

THE REWARD CHAMBER Minutes before the Hunting Zone outing, the newly-branded Demonwraith Michelle is led into the Reward Chamber. Michelle, you are facing THREE doors in front of you - which are marked M, N & O. You may select any ONE for yourself, and whatever lies behind the door will be yours to keep FOREVER! That's not all. Each door has 3 boxes hidden behind them, and all of them are marked 1, 2 & 3. Select any TWO boxes from behind that particular door, and those contents will be yours TOO! Make your choice, and send your PM to me. For example, simply mark in your PM as "My selected door is M, and my selected boxes are M2 & M3." |
HDC BATTLE ROYALE III - THE HUNTING SEASON ZONE - ROUND TEN OF HUNTING
ALL the Lycans have been set free inside The Hunting Season Zone UNARMED! Wraiths, behold... http://i620.photobucket.com/albums/t...hort_Sword.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...0OCs/Spear.jpg AN ELECTRIC SHORT SWORD & A SPEAR! Each Short Sword can cause damage worth 3 HP! And, each Spear can cause damage worth 4 HP! But beware... Someone else will be joining all of you in the hunt. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5..._aaron-now.gif THE CHAINER! He will be waiting for you, Wraiths. The entire Hunting Zone is divided into SEVEN Areas - A, B, C, D, E, F & G. You have to mention which Area you will be in when you are doing your hunting. Wraiths, PM me who your target (or targets) will be in the Hunting Zone. Also mention the Area where you will be when you are doing your hunting. The failure to use even a single Short Sword or Spear, or if more than ONE Wraith ends up in the SAME Area, will mean each Wraith will be shot ELEVEN TIMES by the Snipers in the Watchtowers!! Also, the failure to use your Weapons will result in you being locked in with the Chainer! You all have until Saturday, NOON EST, to complete your hunting. P.S. - Freak is asked to turn in his Shotgun before the Hunting Zone outing. Also, Jenna26 is permitted to rejoin her team after spending the Sitting Out time inside the BR dungeon for this Challenge. I ALSO DECLARE THE GIFTING OF HEALTH PACKS RULE AS OPEN!!! Good luck all. |
Please just kill me.

V - The inactive players are ruining your excellent game. Can't you just toss them all out and let the people who actually want to play do just that? If there's no new rule to get rid of inactives (or at the very least to not penalize their active teammates that have no control over their actions for their inactivity) I wouldn't even consider joining BR4. This is getting ridiculous. |
It is rather bad. And to be honest, if you want out tell V you want out. He's not cruel, he's not going to forbid it. He's making an excellent game for those who want to participate. Rather than just deciding to remain in, not participating until someone kills you which screws over the rest of your team just PULL OUT. (Feel free to laugh at that one).
I wouldn't go so far as to say it's ruined the game for me, but rather than fair wins of better answers it's the no shows that have resulted in the deaths of most of the dead. Granted, we would have lost this challenge with the answers we submitted anyway, but nonetheless it's just not on. Obviously V's in a tough position since he can't kick someone out after one no show and it's tough to know where the cut off point is, but you really need to think of a fair way of punishing them soon. And it was nice knowing you team :( |

Also: OMG! I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE YOUR AVATAR!!!!!! Do you actually own ferrets? Are they legal in the UK? They're only legal in certain states over here. ... Also: GO WRAITHS!!!! And, Dude - DUDE! |
Alas, no, I do not. I just love them in general. Wish I did have some, they're perfectly legal here, but my parents say they stink. Will probably get them when I have my own place.

I LOVE ferrets. I think they're absolutely friggin adorable. Another challenge with them is that they are truly pack animals, so if you're considering getting one, you should get at least another one to keep them company (a friend of mine dated a girl who was OBSESSED with ferrets and who gave me all kinds of Fun Ferret Facts - She had a total of 4 ferrets - They were the CUTEST). |

I think we should unleash an army of angry ferrets on the inactive players.

Sorry guys. Insane couple of days of work (24 hrs in 2 days) only got to send answers in cause i went on my bosses computer while he went to the bank. I was never intentionally being the deadwieght even though other people were. Just had computer issues throughout the entire BR. Wanted that to be known seeing how i dont think ill be making out of this Hunt. Ferret and Bwind are dead on reguarding the deadwieght issue for the next BR.

BR is a team game till 10 players are left. And unless and until I receive some sort of confirmation from a player that he/she is dropping out, it would be slightly unfair to penalise them for one, or even two, no-shows. I agree the whole team shouldn't suffer for a no-show, but another point has to be covered here. Sometimes players deliberately don't send in their entries - maybe with the in-politics of the game - and it has happened before in BR. Sometimes team members don't communicate with a player resulting in their no-showing. There are all sorts of factors to be considered. Someone confirms their participation then doesn't send in their entry, or sends in one for one Challenge and none for the next one...it's tough to judge if they are still in or not? Or if they are doing it deliberately? In the last 2 BRs I was lucky to have handy replacement contestants who gladly took over someone's position when they dropped out (like Roderick Usher did both times, and someone was willing to take over). The problem this year is the lack of attendance at HDC. There was simply nobody I could call upon to participate. Rayne saw my problem and got many of her friends involved in the initial stages, some of them still alive now, but everytime someone didn't show up and didn't even post their confirmation of dropping out it was always hard to find someone else. One of the reasons why I finished off BR II the way I did last year. The main reason for this BR III resurrection was to improve SOME sort of traffic this year. But alas, it has failed to do so. Even confirmed participants were being continuous no-shows...which is saying something. I don't think there will ever be a BR 4. Really. Think this edition will be the final one. For good. |
Well sometimes trilogy are the best sorts. You've done your best V. I mean, you can hardly be blamed for people not showing up and I do think that this has helped somewhat. It's just that we're in a particularly long lull right now. It'll pick up.

My 2 Cents.....From an Admin/Mod point of view.
Timing is everything!! I have noticed over the past 10 years on various forums that the time of year is very important on deciding what types of things to do on a public forum. Most forums hit a lul in activity during the spring and summer months then start to pick up again in the fall and are normally back in full swing by late fall. It's the weather!! ;) To try to keep up the activity on the forum it (contest/games/hot topic whatever) pretty much needs to start when the forum is picking back up and then run one thing into the next, those interested in participating in the activities tend to get back to check on things every day or two. To start something up when the forum is already dying down for the lul, you don't normally get as great a response as you would have while the forum was hot hot hot!! but anyway thats just my 2 cents!! ;) btw Yes Chrono I'll post pic's once I get some good ones!! ~S~ |
It used to be like that till January 2009. Since then, everything around this place has come to a real slowdown, regardless of the weather or the seasons.
People have grown out of foruming, would be my conclusion. |
It's a lack of conversation topics at the moment. People are stuck for it because on here most of us have conversed about most things by now.
|
Total lack of good horror movies plus way too many conversations in this forum about everything except horror are probably not helping.
If it's any consolation though, there are really only 2-3 things I participate in that keep me checking in to the forum everyday and this is one of them. So your goal wasn't a total failure, if not for BR3, I probably would have faded off for a while too as soon as I got knocked out of the Showdown. As for the problem with inactives, I have a couple possible solutions to suggest just in case there ever is another Battle Royale.... 1 would be to let the winning teams hunt each other as well as the losing the team when they enter the hunting zone. If the winners have the option to shoot at whoever they want, they could opt to use their ammo against their enemies or on their own teammates that are dragging them down. 2 would be a three strike rule. Three missed challenges or hunting zones and you are ejected from the game. If someone wants to risk missing one or two for strategic purposes, that's a risk they would be choosing to take. 3 would be to have the snipers just shoot the no-shows and not the entire team. Just suggestions to keep in mind if you ever do decide to run another one. Don't get me wrong V. Your game is great and you are doing an excellent job hosting it. I'm annoyed as can be with all the inactive people that said they would play, but aren't and probably going to end up making it further than me simply because they pose no threat at all when thigns become individual. |
RESULT OF THE REWARD CHAMBER OUTING #6
Demonwraith Michelle was led into the Reward Chamber shortly before the Zone outing started. She stood in front of three doors, which were marked M, N, O. Michelle's selected door was - M, and her selected boxes were M1 & M3. Let us first see what was behind the doors which Michelle DIDN'T select - Behind door N - A RAILGUN! N1 - 20 Bonus Health Packs, N2 - 100 Bullets Magazine, and N3 - 50 Bullets Magazine. Behind door O - A PLASMA RIFLE!! O1 - 75 Plasma Bolts, O2 - 30 Bonus Health Packs, O3 - THE CHAINER SHIELD!!! M2 - 100 Sniper Rifle bullets. Now for what she chose. Door M - http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/i...iperRifleA.jpg A SNIPER RIFLE, COMPLETE WITH 20X Digital Scope! Box M1 - 50 Sniper Rifle shells! Box M3 - 15 BONUS HEALTH PACKS! Congratulations, Michelle! You may use your Sniper Rifle every time you go into the Zone as a designated Hunter, never otherwise. You may fire it FIVE times per Zone outing, which means FIVE shells (either 1 shell each for five targets, or you may choose to pump all five shells into 1 target!) If you make it into the Round of 10, you may use your Sniper Rifle shots according to your own discretion without any bounds in the Zone, BUT ONLY WHEN & IF YOU ARE A DESIGNATED HUNTER. Never otherwise. But, you have to turn in your Sniper Rifle if you or your team loses the Challenge. You can use your new weapon from the next Hunting Zone outing onwards. |
The DEADLINE was UP about 1 hour and 40 minutes back...
The gates were swung open, and the teams trooped in slowly. All the members silently trodded in, some with heavy steps... ...one was WOUNDED... ...and one... ...DIDN'T COME IN AT ALL!!! The Medics rush into the Zone to find the ONE missing contestant, presumably dead... ...and the scanners confirm it. ONE contestant IS INDEED DEAD!!! Let's see what the scanners show. |
The Timeline inside The Zone
Bwind22 donated ALL his HPs to "whoever needed them the most", except for TWO team-members. ---------THEN THE HUNTING STARTED!----------- Roshiq was in Area G, where he drove his sword and spear deep into BWIND22's chest!!! Bwind had announced to donate ALL his HPs. Little did he know that he would be needing his OWN HPs the MOST. Chronogrl was in Area B, where she surprised FERRETCHUCKER and ripped him with her Short Sword, then nearly impaled him with her Spear!!! Ferret lost all the 7 HPs he had won in this Challenge, and was now left with 2 HPs ONLY!! Dude Guadalupe chose Area A, where he tripped Bwind22 hard and swished his Short Sword right across Bwind's chest, slicing him brutally. Bwind screamed and somehow ran, but Dude threw his Spear which whistled through the air at lightning speed and rammed straight into Bwind's back. Bwind used up 7 more of his own HPs to heal himself, and now had 14 left. But someone watched all this action with large, glowing eyes. THE CHAINER swung out from the trees straight into Dude's path and locked him almost immediately in his spike-covered chains. Dude yelled but pulled out the Short Sword he had, and tried to hack at the Chainer. He used up all his 13 HPs and repeatedly flung himself out of the Chainer's grasp, fighting him hard. He swung again and again and managed to hack off one of Chainer's arms, and the creature roared in immense pain, it's cry shaking the ground near both of them. That made The Chainer furiously mad. His chest opened in a flash and the final coil of chain gripped Dude's neck tightly in an iron grip, and then came the tugging. Dude tried to lift his Sword again, but felt the strength flow out of his arm, alongwith pools of blood. His eyes bulged out, and his mouth stayed open in the final process of uttering a shriek, just as his head and limbs were ripped out of his torso!! DEMONWRAITH DUDE GUADALUPE IS DEAD!!! Straker was in Area E, where he chanced across FERRETCHUCKER and let him have it with his Short Sword and Spear!!! Ferret used up his remaining 2 HPs, and was in imminent danger of dying. But Bwind22 came across him and quickly pulled out 5 of his HPs and saved Ferret's life. Bwind had 9 HPs left with him now. Jenna26 was found inside Area C, where she swooped upon BWIND22 and nearly ripped him apart with her brutal Sword & Spear attack!!! 7 more of Bwind's HPs disappeared. He had ONLY 2 left. Saytan strode inside Area F confidently, where she made a beeline for FREAK and slashed him furiously with her Short Sword!! Then she found where FERRETCHUCKER was hiding and drove her Spear right through his thigh!! But...she chose to NOT use her Bonus Weapons. Thankfully for the Lycans. The last 2 HPs of Bwind were used up in healing Ferret again. But Ferret didn't heal completely to FIT status. He was left WOUNDED. And Bwind ran out of HPs. Freak used up 3 HPs to heal himself. He had 15 left with him. Finally, Michelle chose to move into Area D, where she heard Freak's plea to be killed off and decided to kill him in an act of mercy (she couldn't resist attacking Freak and had to comply because he had asked so NICELY!!). She attacked Freak with her Short Sword and Spear with eyes full of empathy for him. 7 HPs used up. 8 left for Freak. That concludes the Zone outing. Thankfully the snipers were not needed for this one after a LONG time of brutal punishment for both teams. I will leave the Demonwraiths to grieve over Dude Guadalupe's loss. Ferretchucker, Bwind22 and Freak are led into the Medic Center for further treatments. The body of Dude Guadalupe is carried into the Morgue, with both teams showing plenty of respect to the warrior and awesome team member who went down fighting to the Chainer. Let's have a look at the updated statuses... |
