    Hello and welcome back to Boards: Survivor.

    We've had an interesting run in the past Round 7 and we're getting close to the end now.

    Just to recap where everyone stands;

    In the last round there was a public poll to decide who would be eliminated. Public opinion was split between Mr. Nice Guy and tba. 44 votes to each contestant. Therefore a tie breaker poll was instigated that gave each surviving contestant - tba, tovalee, MNG and mayordenis one vote to vote somebody off. The contestant with the most votes were voted off. A shock vote from tba saw tba voting for himself. Shock horror. Seeing as MNG and mayordenis had voted for him also, he has been eliminated.

    Therefore we only have 3 remaining contestants. And in fact this round is the penultimate round. I haven't considered properly the ramifications of this as I have forgotten that the next round will see only 2 contestants. As I haven't had the time to prepare an alternative challenge from OFDM's interesting idea, I have remained with my current flash challenge.

    Therefore in this round the contestants have been given a challenge consisting of a flash (swf) page that consists of a mathemabetical challenge, including a sound challenge. The contestant that is first to give me a result to this challenge (I am looking for an image, there is no exact image I have in mind btw) will gain immunity from this rounds public vote.

    Sorry, I haven't been able to think of a better way to do this. Therefore this round is just like the last round. Save your precious vote until a contestant has given the answer to the mathemabetical challenge posed via pm is what I suggest. The contestant that wins the challenge will not be voted off - no matter how many public votes they receive.

    For those interested - the next round that will see only two remaining contestants will be placed into a poll. Whoever gets THE MOST VOTES WINS. And I won't make the poll public next time.

    So, I have sent the latest challenge to tovalee, mayordenis and Mr. Nice Guy.

    Good luck to you trinity.

    You have 3 days until the poll closes and the challenge stops. If nobody gets the result to the challenge - the contestant with the most votes will be voted off.

    Whatever mathemabetical means, google doesn't recognise it.

    I see Powerhousedans pathetic little vendetta continues :rolleyes:

    Why vote now? The poll is meant to be a reflection of how people get on in this round.

    :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    now this ones a challenge! :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Mr.Nice Guy
    Also it is kinda pointless to vote until the challenge has been answered.

    However, in saying that, who knows how long it will take them to get an answer.

    i think i have part of it worked out. But im definitely missing something... :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Mr.Nice Guy
    Thank goodness, I was worried that you would get this one too quick as you have proved good at the wordy challenges. Hopefully the audio will stump you for a little while.

    Maths again?! Why couldn't we have had an immunity challenge on The Simpsons or something? :D

    I'm confused by the SW. What does it mean? Something to do with Star Wars? Yes, I am clutching at straws! ;)

    Mr.Nice Guy
    I'll post it up when somebody completes it.

    If you really want to do it properly you can not view this thread and I'll PM you the challenge when it has been won.

    :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Mr.Nice Guy
    You're confused by the SW?

    I thought that was one of the easier parts...

    Well it can't mean what I think it means as that's too obvious.

    Mr.Nice Guy
    There may be some obviousnesses within the challenge. Don't rule it out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 471 ✭✭tovalee


    going by the poll results so far and since i havent received a pm from MNG asking for an alliance against mayor, i'm assuming i'm the one hes gunning for this round! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Mr.Nice Guy
    tovalee - 6
    mayordenis - 0
    MNG - 9, in the lead to be voted off.

    Do you guys need a hint to the challenge? If so what part do you need the hint for:
    blue circle
    hash sign
    white italics
    or the final thing?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,488 ✭✭✭Goodshape


    Mr.Nice Guy
    mayordenis' perpetual absence from these games seems to be doing him wonders in the vote.

    my calls for his elimination have too long fallen on deaf ears.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 471 ✭✭tovalee


    this challenge makes my brain hurt :(

    [edit]i think i will take a break and drink heavily before resuming challenge.[/edit]

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 471 ✭✭tovalee

    heh. NO!

    ok
    hash relates to number - audio
    top row should give anagram.
    The line between anagram and hash is "divided by"

    What is the significance of the SW?

  • Registered Users Posts: 7,699 ✭✭✭StupidLikeAFox


    Turn it upside down....

    it was MAGGIE SIMPSON!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Mr.Nice Guy
    There are a few of those:
    N,W,E,S,NW,SW,NE,SE

    mayordenis
    Gordon, now you've gone and confused me further! :o That doesn't seem to make any sense to the problem.

    Mr.Nice Guy
    hmmm...

    ok the problem is
    anagram divided into a certain number. Giving a certain amount of results from the anagram.

    MNG maybe you need some guidance from an orienteerer?
