Gridlock

Chunky Kong12345 · 03-05-2007, 06:31 PM

I'd like to try a new game.

GRIDLOCK

The game is simple. Three contestants are required to go through a 15x15 grid (Grid will come later. No time now.). The contestants have a start and an end point. The squares have three types:

Trivia Square - has a number and a color on it. Get the question right, win that amount of points.
Trivia Square Colors: Red - Music, Yellow - History, Blue - Electronics and Machines, Green - Movies and Television, Silver - Books, Gold - Famous People. ***Flashing square - difficulty is increased, point value on square doubled***
Lose Points Square - Lose amount listed on square
Lose Your Turn Square - lose your turn (dur)

Contestants move one square per turn, in any direction (diagonals do count). Contestants may not travel onto a square that ANYONE has been on. When a contestant reaches their end point, the game is over and the person with the most points wins. If no one can reach their end point, the game is over and the person with the most points wins.

To start, I'll need 3 contestants.

Chunky Kong12345 · 03-06-2007, 06:22 PM

Just to clarify:

Player 1: jpfr
Player 2: Alex
Player 3: Marchie

(I use dice, by the way.)

jpfr is first. Which direction do you wish to move?

Colin Greenwood · 03-06-2007, 06:26 PM

Put me on reserve for next game.

jigglypuffer · 03-06-2007, 07:03 PM

From "1s" I take it?

Southeast.

Chunky Kong12345 · 03-06-2007, 09:05 PM

Also to clarify:

jpfr: red
Alex: blue
Marchie: green

Oooo, sorry jpfr. You hit a lose points right away.

*roll roll roll*

-500 points.

Scores:
1= Marchie: 0
1= Alex: 0
3. jpfr: -500

Alex, you're up.

Then Marchie.

Then jpfr again.

And so on.

Edit: Actually, this game's on pause for a week. Check the Farewell Forum for details.

Alex · 03-08-2007, 08:05 PM

I actually forgot all about this. *cuts off left pinky finger*

Well despite the blood on the keyboard, (and when you get back) I will go...

Goddammit, Alex. You're out.

Someone can take his place.

Alex · 04-04-2007, 04:47 PM

^you know, they have PM's for a reason.

The first sucessful console was the Atari, but I think the first was called the Odyssey

Chunky Kong12345 · 04-06-2007, 09:55 AM

Correct. You get 200 points.
