This week, it's all about banding together as a team, in preparation for later challenges. The game is called "My Castle!" (You may have played it under the title "My Hill", but castles are better) Here's how it works:
Participant 1 claims control of the castle. Participant 2 uses any non-fatal (well, cartoon non-fatal) means to get rid of them and claims the castle as their own. Participant 3 then gets rid of Participant 2, etc.
All posts must end with "My Castle!"
The catch - you can change the landscape, add things, take things away. You want dragons? Have one! Trebuchets? Well, it's a little cliche, but go for it! Feel like blowing the castle up (seriously, who would do that?)? Do so! But make sure that you reclaim it as your own by the end of the post.
For Example:
1: I got here first - My Castle!
2: I kick 1's bum and she falls off - My Castle!
This is a lame example and I expect better from you guys, because you are far more creative than I.
Points: Every person who turns up, regardless of the number of comments they make, gets 10 points. 10 points if you comment once, 10 points if you comment 100 times. The point is to turn up.
However, the team with the most comments, total, when the game ends will get and additional 50 points. Commentaries on each other's particularly brilliant schemes will also count.
Obviously, kicking yourself out of your own castle would be silly, so you can't do that (there will be rather enough silly, I imagine)
The game will close
