Game 1
Wyborn (captain), Panfan, Captain Namechange, UN, Microphone Kirby

1 more answer needed, by Captain Namechange. About 30 hours left.

Assuming the type match-ups of the current games, which four of the following seven types of Pokemon attacks will be "super-effective" against the target listed?

An Ice attack against Skarmory

An Electric attack against Cloyster

A Water attack against Probopass

A Fire attack against Magneton

A Grass attack against Steelix

A Dark attack against Gardevoir

A Fighting attack against Shuckle

Game 3
5 open spots (no captain yet); join now

A Dark attack against Gardevoir

**S1x** · 10-18-2007, 09:10 PM

...I'm sorry on everybody on Chunky Kong's team, but you've run out of time. If I could give you something for compensation, I would, but for the sake of fairness, you need to actually win it. However, if you play again, you never know if you'll go really far and win big. Keep trying, guys. Argh, I hate that.

Wyborn, do you accept all these answers, or would you like to change one?

If anybody had any money at this point, there would be a random drawing for a spot in a "million dollar showdown". Each $1,000 earned would count as one entry in the "pool" I would select from. When there are enough people selected, there will be elimination questions asked until 1 person is left standing. That person gets a direct shot at a $1,000,000 question (and if they pass it, possibly $2,000,000......)

However, since there are no scores, I will delay this drawing until later. I won't say exactly when later... but soon.

**Wyborn** · 10-18-2007, 09:56 PM

I accept all of these answers. Glad I still have my copy of diamond.

**S1x** · 10-18-2007, 10:55 PM

I'll try to stop disappointment like that... the next game Chunky Kong joins cannot be as a captain. Sorry dude, but twice in a row you've led a team that hasn't gone beyond $100,000. This isn't permanent, though.

Game 1
Wyborn (captain), Panfan, Captain Namechange, UN, Microphone Kirby

Okay, all the answers are final and I'll now reveal them.

An Electric attack against Cloyster... that one is correct. That one is due to its Water weakness, from being a Water/Ice type.

A Water attack against Probopass... it's a Rock/Steel type, so that one is correct.

A Dark attack against Gardevoir... correct again. It's a Psychic type.

It's up to one more answer... if a Fire attack is super-effective versus a Magneton. If it is, you've got $500,000. But if it isn't, you've got nothing. Soooo... I've got $50,000 to guarantee you right now. Your team can take this and walk away right now if you are worried about that last answer. $10,000 for each of you would still be nice, and it would guarantee all five of you some entries into that drawing I talked about a couple posts ago. So, Wyborn, this decision is up to you. What are you going to do?

Magneton's been vulnerable to Fire ever since the introduction of the Steel type; we're keeping that one.

Onward!

I'll reveal that last answer tomorrow so that everybody has a little bit of time to notice that I'm updating again.

I'm revealing it now for you guys. You were confident that a Fire attack does extra damage against Magneton... are you correct?

Alright, Wyborn, your team now has $500,000. That equals $100,000 for everybody. But where you stand right now, you could try and double that. You're two questions away from $2,000,000, everybody seems to be doing well, and you still have your Freebie. I'm warning you now that you will not have a lot of time to answer this question, so your team needs to be on it. This may not be as simple a decision as it was before. I won't stop pointing out that the scoreboard is blank right now. Do you want to go on, risk everything, and see if your team can clear the $1,000,000 question? The category for the next question is: Lyrics.

Welcome, team, to Greed. Hope you can earn something this time... you've seen how it works from previous posts, so let's get started with the first question of the game.

Mikhail Gorbachev · 10-25-2007, 09:35 PM

Wyborn, I think we should go for it. While S1x said time may be an issue, everyone in this team can be quickly summoned from WoT if they forget about Greed, so there's no problem.

Microphone_Kirby · 10-25-2007, 09:36 PM

I don't know, Wyborn... Can everybody be here on time? I'm preety sure that we can get this next question, its just that I'm not that confident in everybody's speed.

^ I hope your right...

Colin Greenwood · 10-25-2007, 09:50 PM

I don't really have anything better to do, so I should be here.

Plus music and lyrics are my speshultee.

Right here. I think we should continue. I'll always be in WoT, if you need to find me, but I'm online all the time so I don't think it'll be an issue. Plus if we need it, we could always use the freebie.
