Challenge 4: ENIGMA

Posted on 6.29.2015 by Matt at 12:00 AM
Well, how are things in Heaven? I wish you'd say, because I’d like to know that you're all right. The media showcased its ability to completely shift gears when it came to sides after the infamous "Tiger Extinction". Weeks of harassing the police force for its failures in fighting organized crime turned into glorification of the do-gooders against the wretched criminals responsible for terrorism. Public opinion of the underground was going deep...

Elimination 3

She is good and must endure, loving her so... and as we love ourselves we hate her foe. The College for Preparing Salem, also known as CPS, was world-renowned for their efforts in giving students a quality education, both academically and socially. Of course, no one really cared about the nerds or the hipsters on its biggest sports event of the year. Diversity caused the popularity of soccer to skyrocket within the past few decades at the college,...

Challenge 3 Interview: Puck

Posted on 6.21.2015 by Matt at 1:50 PM
In one of the biggest challenges of the season, Andre had to face his opponents in a 2 v 1. Hope seemed to be out of reach as he fought for every goal solo. In the end, a revision had to be made to compensate for both sides' issues. On the eve of the first multiple team Bottom 2, Andre agreed to do an interview with us. Matt: Welcome to the show, Andre! What made you go with the alias Pück? Andre: Well, most people here know that...

Revision of Challenge 3 Results

Posted on 6.20.2015 by Matt at 3:25 PM
One of my biggest fears running this gameshow is the possibility of it breaking chat. Last night, it seemed that was likely. Discussions turned to fistacuffs after I proposed a debate among different chat members as to how they would personally handle the situation.  It turned out Lewis had missed the challenge due to network connectivity issues that were outside of his control. The previous precedent set in the past two challenges was...

Challenge 3 Results

Posted on 6.19.2015 by Matt at 8:15 PM
No story for this challenge post. I will save it for the elimination post. Every gameshow has its memorable challenges and events. Today, I believe we added another event to the memories we will look back upon years from now. Two matches were played to decide a final victor. One was a standard four player match, while the other... was inspiring, to say the least. MATCH 1: Damon and Penny vs. Bumble and Sand The first match of the game went...

Challenge 3: HAT TRICK

Posted on 6.15.2015 by Matt at 12:00 AM
This is no case of petty right or wrong that politicians or philosophers can judge. Il Liberatore motioned for the emotionless Bumble to head to her seat. "Sometimes, amore mio," he explained. "Sacrifices that may seem horrid in the short term are what save you in the future." "...What information do you have?" "Ah, professional. Attenda prego! Let's look over my part of the deal." Liberatore's desk was covered in layers of documents and novels...

Elimination 2

Posted on 6.14.2015 by Matt at 4:50 PM
Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw. It was pouring like cats and dogs the night a single officer walked up to the doors of an unmarked hideout. In any other scenario, Bumble would have been considered completely insane trusting the word of a random caller to rendezvous under their terms. Who would even dream of meeting someone they met over anonymous means under the false belief of knowing them? However, these...

Challenge 2 Interview: Bumble Hough

Posted on 6.13.2015 by Matt at 6:50 PM
The Cops have tasted their first bite of victory this week thanks to their ability to secure a 24.25 turn average during Seance. Bumble (A.K.A. Bumble Hough) took the lead for her previously humiliated team. She has agreed to an interview with Matt and Cam to discuss what led to this outcome for Challenge 2! Cam: Wow, it's been a crazy week, but the Cops did it! How does it feel experiencing the first win for your team this season? Bumble:...

Challenge 2 Results

Posted on 6.12.2015 by Matt at 9:00 PM
In one of the greatest scheduling feats in human history, we finally completed the second challenge of Skool of Salem! With the power of timers and liners, the Cops and Mafia were able to use clues in order to figure out where the GHOST was located. Some took longer than others, but in the end, we did not need to use the times to determine a final winning team. The twist this week had our contestants compete individually rather than with...

Challenge 2 Twist!

Posted on 6.12.2015 by Matt at 1:38 PM
This is not a challenge results post, but rather a post that determines the results of the challenge! Due to the caller's demand for only one officer to meet with operative GHOST, we decided to utilize a different method in order to figure out who gets to speak with the mysterious figure. Every contestant will need to individually complete the challenge with the same rule set originally given (Cam or Peng will give the contestant clues if they...

Challenge 2: SEANCE

Posted on 6.08.2015 by Matt at 12:00 AM
The larks, still bravely singing, fly scarce heard amid the guns below. Newspapers had a way of viewing the goings-on around Salem through a tinted glass. In this time of red vs blue, whether interstate, intrastate, or international, division could only be printed in black and white. For the sworn defenders of the crime-ridden Salem, the news could only describe them with dark tones. A week had passed since the death of Jacob. Or was it years?...
