Update


11 entries in so far...I await 3 more.

If 5 of the entries you have received so far have 100% correct answers, the people who submitted those will be the hunters

Would it be possible for you to tell us if you do have 5 entires with 100% correct answers, so far?...If so, could you tell us who the hunters will be?...If you can't, and I'm asking too much, I'll understand





Patience is a virtue...But...Not one of mine :)

Rayne is obviously sharpening her claws and wants some fresh meat


although - i'd be curious how many 100% accurate entries there were - some of those are more tricky than they may at first appear and some may even be debatable from a strict film history standpoint.

it'll be interesting to see

Exactly, and it really comes down to _V_'s judgment on some because of that. One duo particularly made me smile...

Yeah, I really believe I seriously messed up on those

And I agree, this will be very interesting...That's why I can't wait :p

God I wish I was still a part of this!

Hopefully V will do another one when this one is over...But, I know it's hard work and it's time consuming...So, I definitely understand if he can't

I think we should wait. Maybe have it as a yearly thing. Starting around march time and ending whenever it ends. I might do one but I'm not sure if I have enough knowledge of horror to do lots of challenges that would be challenging.

Wow... it took like 20 minutes to do these and 3 people still have not gotten them in. They better have a good reason for making me wait!:mad:

...

Having lives outside this forum? ;)

What am I saying - I had mine in on Friday afternoon.

I've been busy with work and I've been going out more trying to get over my fear of people. I'm gonna try and work on mine later tonight.

Hey all.......there is a good chance...no..scratch that...a most definite chance I'm not gonna make the deadline [ I started to get into it last night but just didn't have the time to commit to it]....my daughter came home from the hospital today and the baby will be coming home hopefully tomorrow [ slight complications...nothing serious ] so feel free to kill my ass if you feel the need...;)

really....I'm not looking for an excuse....if ya wanna blast away...so be it.

If you dont have time to finish it, you should just send in what you have - at least it'll be a point or two, better than nothing. Hell, you might even get a health pack out of it!

good point....when is the deadline?

Tomorrow at noon.

Damn newb hope all is well with the baby and all.

Yeah Newb, same here as Gore. I know I don't have to tell you this but if it comes down to it then fuck the BR, take care of the kids.

Announcement


Battle Royale will be going on a hiatus after Challenge #13 is over.

Many of you need a break, and things have gotten a bit out of hand on my front too.

Hopefully maybe a week or so, before we return again for Challenge #14.

Yeah, I KNOW I didn't get them all right because I noticed a mistake I made after I sent it. I just didn't have much time and thought the deadline was noon Sat. :eek:

Happy hunting all!

:D


On one hand this is a great idea, especially with spring kicking in and muddling up everybody's time with life.


On the other hand we'll be fiending.

Yeah.... Thats a good idea. Giving everybody a break, is probably the best thing we could do right now, with everybody having personal problems... but..... FUCK.... DO YOU KNOW HOW FREAKING ADDICTING THIS GAME IS?! Its making me sad in the pants to think about having a week with no BR. :(

You deserve a break V. I could see things were getting difficult for you. Honestly, after this has finished you should take a long hard break from doing anything like this. Tourneys, games, anything.

"You do too much! You're not superman you know."

That post makes IT a lot less frightening.

Wonderful idea _V_ - you really deserve a good, long rest. A few cold bears, a couple good horror flicks, maybe some fresh air...it'll do you good:)

You know, I could go back and edit that little typo - but just for the sheer hilariousness of that image, I'm going to leave it :D

well..........

Indeed.......

TIME'S UP!!!

Let's see what happened in The Zone...











Just helping :D

It sure was about 45 mins ago...

Let's see how you all fared...

YES! V IS HERE! Allright V just tell me that I won and I will take my shots.

I hate having to go to work right as soon as V gets here...no fun at all :(

Sorry...my fault. I was late. :(

Anyway, correct answers up next, followed by your scores...

Pffffffft. Not your fault at all - with all the work you put in to this you deserve to show up late!

I should have gone with my gut in regards to the T Rex...

And as for all the early films, to that I say, "Ohhhhhhh, craaaaaaaaaaaap."

ha ! boy did i bollox this one up :)

You and me both...Once again, I dug WAY too deep

i have absolutely no knowledge at all about the older classics


or any movies really.


i just like 'em, i'm not a film historian :)

Me as well... And I actually thought I was doing well in this challenge. :o

When it came between "older" and "oldest," I chose the better known older one. Whiiiiiiiiiich obviously wasn't the one to pick. Shoulda known better.

Oh, I went back as far as possible...Jeez


I think V's greatest trick, is to NOT trick us when we think he may be trying to trick us :D
