As the Cenobites entered the Catacombs, they moved as a group down one tunnel before splitting up at the fork.

http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...le/tunnels.jpg


The Deadites enter the Catacombs, moving as a group down the first tunnel. They hear footsteps and stop, listening. The footsteps continue and Fortunato breaks off from the group to go after it.

Fortunato knows the person is near as the footsteps quicken into a run, he too quickens his pace. Fortunato rounds the next turn and comes face to face with Gorephobia! He quickly fires his crossbow, hitting Gore in the shoulder as he smiles evily, then leaves.

Gore winces as his shoulder goes dead. He pulls out the arrow and uses his only re-animation pack to re-animate his shoulder.



Meanwhile...


Neverending and Cactus continue through the tunnel, listening for signs of movement, but hearing nothing. They come upon a antechamber with a sarcophagus, which they stop to inspect.

Out of the corner of Neverending's eye, he catches movement as V comes out of the shadows preparing to run back down the tunnel, but Neverending fires his crossbow, hitting V in the leg. V stumbles long enough for Cactus to fire his shot, hitting V in the shoulder.

Neverending and Cactus give each other high 5's as they leave. V pulls the arrows out, his shoulder and leg going dead. V has a re-animation pack, but only one for his two dead limbs.

Challenge #3: Horror Musicals!
 
There are 5 musicals, with 5 questions each.


Answers questions 1-25, which are about the 5 musicals and in no particular order. Then Identify the 5 musicals, based on those 25 questions.

This challenge is worth 30 points.



1. What happens during the eclipse of the sun?

2. What do you do when:

Sometimes, the world is black,
And tears run from your eyes,
And maybe we'll all get really sick,
And maybe we'll all die.

3. What character is in the trailer for this movie, but not actually in the movie?

4. When will a weakling weighing ninety-eight pounds get sand in his face?

5. Who is the mad beggar woman?

6. What are the effects of deadly nightshade?

7. Who mistakenly captures the Easter Bunny?

8. If you want a rationale
It isn't very hard to see
Stop and think it over, pal
The guy sure looks like plant food to me.

Who is the plant food?

9. Which group of characters are played by Asians?

10. What is Audrey's dream?

11. What are his friends that glisten?

12. Who covets a life by the sea?

13. Who unveils the secret to life itself?

14. Who is the masochist looking for a dentist?

17. What is nicer than what Betty Monroe had?

19. What is the name of the real-life American the movie is based on?

20. What planet is this brother & sister team from?

21. Like a lobster, huge and red
And sets out to slay with his rain gear on
Carting bulging sacks with his great big arms

Who does this describe?

22. How many faces does the mayor have?

23. There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
And the vermin of the world inhabit it
And it's morals aren't worth what a pig could spit

What place is this?

24. When a young couple knocks on the door, who did the faithful handyman think they were?

25. What kind of man is badder than the baddest sailor and can make love to women 10 feet tall?





While this is a team effort, everyone must submit their answer individually via PM to me.

This challenge is worth more than those previous and the penalty will be greater as well.


The Deadline for your entries is Monday, May 5th at 12 noon EST.

Gorephobia will be sitting out for the Cenobites.

Take your time and work together, don't forget if there is a tie we'll be playing Bludgeon, Shroud, and Scythe (Rock, Paper, Scissors) as a tie-breaker.


Good Luck :)

Yep, film versions only and only the most recent film version.

Remember it's only five movies, so if you get one question, then you know you have four more questions on that movie.

Catacombs Outing for Challenge #3
 
The Cenobites are released into the Catacombs!


Status Update:

Ferretchucker - Full Life +1
Gorephobia - Full Life
V - 9/10 Life
Alkytrio666 - Full Life +1

Items: Gold Key





The Deadites take a moment to visit Weapons Master Bob, and to familiarize themselves with the weapon for this outing--the Machete!

http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...d50a7f7f21.jpg

Unfortunately, we have a small budget here at Battle Royale for the Undead and so our Machetes are rather cheap and will only survive two whacks before breaking.

So, the Machetes are only worth 2 damage points, which you can use on one person or split your 2 whacks between 2 people. It's up to you.


Deadites:

Each of you will receive a Machete and will need to PM your victim(s) to me by tomorrow, May 6th at noon EST.

Failure to do so will cause the release of Cereberus who will maul your team, reducing everyone's Total Life Points by 1/3.

Neverending - Full Life +3

Papillon Noir 05-05-2008 11:26 AM

This just in:


I'm sorry to say that Cerberus has escaped from his cage again! He attacked one of the Cenobites before he could be contained.

I'm sorry Cenobites, but V has been mauled to dust [he has opted out for personal reasons] and is so out of Battle Royale for the Undead.



Since no shots from the Deadites have yet been fired, Deadites please adjust your plans accordingly.

As the Cenobites enter the Catacombs, they split up, each running down a different tunnel.

http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...le/tunnels.jpg


The Deadites enter the Catacombs, staying together as they move through the tunnels.


The Deadites enter into the antechamber with the sarcophagus that Neverending and Cactus found last outing. After an inspection of the chamber reveals that no one is hiding, the group turns to go.

Fortunato catches his foot on the edge of the sarcophagus, causing one of the bottom stones to turn out. And audible click is heard. The Deadites look at each other in alarm.

The wall behind them slides open revealing an alcove with two doors. One is marked "A" and the other is marked "B". Below the letters on each door is a set of three keyholes, with keyhole covers in gold, silver, and bronze.

Before the Deadites can inspect further, footsteps are heard in the hallway leading to the antechamber. Fortunato mouths the word, "Cenobite" and the three of them leave the antechamber.

As the Cenobite footsteps quicken, the Deadites break out into a run, rounding the corner of the tunnel and coming upon Alkytrio!

The Deadites overtake Alkytrio before he can get away and start hacking away at his flesh with their machetes!

After two whacks, each of the Deadites' machetes break in half. They look disgruntedly at the cheap weapons, throwing them to the ground as they leave.

Alky, with his right side completely dead and mangled, he uses his one re-animation pack to partially re-animate his right side, but it is not enough.

neverending 05-06-2008 06:54 AM

Ooooo.... intriguing!

Papillon Noir 05-06-2008 06:56 AM

Keys
 
There are two sets of gold, silver, and bronze keys for both teams and there are two doors. What lies behind those two doors is unknown, but both sets of keys will unlock either door, but not both.

You obtain keys by winning challenges and the first team to win all three keys will have their pick of the doors. The other team will be able to open the remaining door when they have collected all of their keys.

http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...Royale/ex2.jpg

More details to come when the first team gets all their keys.

neverending 05-06-2008 08:27 AM

ow- only 24 hours?

Papillon Noir 05-06-2008 09:33 AM

Not long enough?

neverending 05-06-2008 11:41 AM

Neither of my teammates can get on until the evening, so that doesn't give them very much time to work on the challenge.

Papillon Noir 05-06-2008 12:00 PM

Last week you all were only given 24hrs between challenges and you did fine.

We can put this to a vote:

For this challenge I can push the deadline to Thursday, May 8 at 10am EST, but each contestant may submit a vote with their answers as to whether all future challenges must have at least 24hrs between the posting and the deadline or at least 48hrs.

If I get all the entries in by tomorrow, I will announce the winner early.

The deadline for naming the victims in the Catacombs will stay at 24hrs (that seems to work out alright).




While we are on the subject of this, would anyone object to making this a Monday-Friday event? That would mean that none of the deadlines would be on a Saturday or a Sunday.

I'm getting married in two months, so my weekends are super busy and it's hard to be by a computer at a specific time.

GorePhobia 05-06-2008 12:08 PM

I got all the answers done except one in about ten minutes so I think they will be fine with a noon deadline.

Papillon Noir 05-06-2008 12:14 PM

Okay, I didn't think I made it too hard. I wasn't sure as I haven't gotten any of the entries yet.

We'll just see what happens this round and put it to a vote for the length of the challenges.


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 08:57 PM.
