Here's a quick review of Bludgeon, Scythe, and Shroud:


So we will be using this as a tie-breaker throughout the rest of the game. Bludgeon, Shroud and Scythe is play just like Rock, Paper, Scissors. Bludgeon breaks Scythe, Scythe cuts Shroud, and Shroud covers Bludgeon.

Each member of a team must send me a PM with their choice of Bludgeon, Shroud, or Scythe. The first PM I receive from each team will be counted as Round 1. If there is a winner of Round 1, that will decide the tie-breaker.

If Round 1 is a tie, then second PM I received from each team will be counted as Round 2.

Since Fortunato sat out for this challenge, he will also be sitting out for Bludgeon, Scythe, and Shroud.

If all the team members have sent me their choices and the rounds end in ties, that challenge will be scrapped without an outing in the catacombs and no rewards will be given. We will then continue on to the next and final challenge.



So, Deadites and Nemesis send me your choices individually via PM. If Bludgeon, Shroud, and Scythe is not completed by tomorrow, June 12th, at noon EST, this challenge will be scrapped.
