There is a TIE for the FIRST SPOT. And in case of a TIE, the group who submitted their answers first wins.


And that group is...















THE ALL-STAR ZOMBIES!!!

Congratulations, Zombies. You kicked butt in Challenge #7.







And your winnings will be...




A FREE LICENCE TO HUNT DOWN THE DEMONS IN THE HUNTING SEASON!!







With what? you ask...


This will be your Weapon...

[_____V_____]

Round 7 - THE HUNTING SEASON


All 5 Demons have been let into The Zone unarmed. The designated Hunters - The All-Star Zombies - are hereby ordered to march into The Zone with their arsenal AND this weapon for each Zombie...





YES! It's a crossbow, complete with 5 poison-tipped arrows!

One for EACH one of you.


Zombies, send me a PM mentioning which Demon would you shoot as your target(s). You may choose random targets for your arrows, as long as you mention it clearly in your PM.

Each arrow is capable of inflicting damage equal to ONE bullet each.


I also declare the RULE of "gifting" Health Packs as activated.


The deadline for hunting in The Zone ends tonight at Midnight EST. Failure to fire even one crossbow would mean EACH ZOMBIE WILL BE SHOT TEN TIMES BY THE SNIPERS IN THE WATCHTOWERS!!



Happy Hunting, Zombies...

I awarded you, Des and Newb a point for that one answer which I felt was close enough...disregarding the typo.

[neverending]

If some hunters have bullets or shells they've won in past challenges can they use them in this round? Seems like a crossbow would have a hard time firing them.

[The_Return]

So this means Vampires, Werewolves and Reapers just get to sit back and watch the carnage?
