Tribal Immunity – Beach Balls, Part I: Power and Control
A bouncing sphere of color.
Red orange yellow, green white blue.
Can you maintain?
Hello castaways. For this challenge, we have scattered across the beach six beach balls of various colors:
red, orange, yellow, green, white, and blue
. Your goal for this challenge is to maintain control of these balls. You see, each ball has a mystery point total assigned to it. The possible point totals are:
27 points, 40 points, 49 points, 60 points, 65 points, 88 points, and 92 points
. Yes, there is one extra point total, for added confusion. Anyway, if, at the end of 36 hours, your tribe maintains control of a ball, your tribe will get the point total assigned to that ball. So how do you control these balls, you may ask?
Each hour (XX:00-XX:59), each player may do ONE of the following actions:
[USERNAME] claims the [COLOR] ball!
- since none of the balls are claimed at this point, players may claim a ball. They will then have possession of that ball.
[USERNAME] passes the [COLOR] ball to [USERNAME]!
- If you wish, you may pass a ball you possess to another player. NOTE: Since you can only hold one ball at a time, you can't pass to a player already holding a ball.
[USERNAME] tackles [USERNAME] in want of his/her [COLOR] ball!
- To get a ball from an opposing tribe, you may attempt to tackle someone who possesses a ball. If your attack is successful, you will get whatever color ball they possessed. However:
[USERNAME] dodges [USERNAME]'s tackle!
- If someone attempts to tackle you, and you manage to post this within 10 minutes of the attempt, you will successfully dodge the tackle and maintain possession of the ball. You may do this more than once per hour, if necessary.
As is stated, you can only hold one beach ball at a time, since they are so big.
There is a trick to this challenge, too! Try to figure it out to maximize your chances of winning.
We will begin in
1.5 hours, at 9:00 PM
; you may begin claiming, passing, and tackling then.
36 hours
later, the challenge will conclude and the tribe with the most points will win tribal Immunity. Good luck!
