The first ever Mighty HDC Battle Royale

[_____V_____]

You forget NE, that it's still a matter of choice.


Seven Chainsaws didnt gift a health pack to a fellow member...says something? ;)

I don't think the objective is to make the game easier- it's to make it a CHALLENGE.

I'll abide by the rules IT & V set forth.... I'm just griping.

haha...I understand...You do have a good point though :)

And __V__ said things are going to get more difficult, so I think the 'challenging' aspect will still be pretty strong

It certainly wont be challenging enough if the contest becomes totally lopsided.

Since the penalties become harsher and more harsher, its only fair to have a rule which will work for the benefit of most contestants.

Also, if you gift 2 health packs to someone who has 0, and gets shot 6 times...he/she still dies, remember?

That will be a huge factor in determining the survival, once Challenge #3's penalty starts rolling...



I am letting you into a little secret - it wont always be bullets and shells you have to dodge or duck, or shoot for that matter. ;)

I think a good part of that is because they had no idea who to send a health pack to- fearing it might be wasted, they kept theirs. If they knew for sure they could just gift it to "whoever needs it" they might be more apt to share.

Just another way to look at it.

This is true...I know for a FACT that this was the reason many of us kept ours.

And, that's actually why I asked about it...I would definitely be willing to give mine up if I knew it wouldn't be wasted.

That's also an excellent point...I just really don't want the game to end too soon...So, I suppose I'm biased :o

Yep, hence the rule of sharing health packs stays...but the part of naming a particular contestant as receiver is limited to Challenge #2 only.

Henceforth, you may send in your gifted health pack (or packs) to whomever needs it the most in your group. The medics team will gather em and try to be on time to the most needy ones in your group.

Laterz...see you all tomorrow morning. I m bushed...:cool:

[IT the Traveler]

There was no rule on sharing of health packs in Battle Royale.

But V pleaded with me about it, quoting some of you and saying that it would result in a quick and one-sided contest. And I want it to be a contest, a challenge - not only for the groups, but for the individuals too. A test of their knowledge, skills, tactics and humaneness.

Hence I allowed it.

But any futher tweaks to the rules will result in them being scratched entirely. I have warned V about it already.

I am truly touched by the valiantness shown by the 2nd dead HDC warrior. Even in death, they have etched their name in the annals of Battle Royale. My salute goes to you, noble one.

Hmmmm does anybody else think that IT's avatar looks like a V? Hmmmm seems fishy to me.

yep ..

i didnt share because i have no idea who is perceived as a threat ..

my thinking was that if i made it through - i'd at least know for the next time once they show us who was targeted the most.

i wish there was a way to know before the one person got offed.
