S5C12 - WHICH WIRE?

"GET ME THE WIRE CUTTER!" 


"I CAN'T MAKE IT BACK IN TIME...WE'VE ONLY GOT TWO MINUTES!"


"THE CARGO DOOR'S STUCK! WE CAN'T EVEN GET OU---"

(20 minutes earlier)

The finalists went about their normal, everyday activities. Wake up, get something to eat, watch the TV, go on the computer, all the usual. No one suspected that there was something completely wrong that day. They didn't know that had they made one mistake, there would be no more second chances.

Bumble poured herself a box of Frostyflakes while Wii sat on the couch watching "Shark-o-Mania", which was all the TV played for some reason. Mat sat alongside him, a puddle of urine on the ground and a bottle of milk to keep him from going insane from fear.

Suddenly, Penguin874 walked into the room with complete fear on his face.

"What's wrong, dude?" Lew asked, turning away from his "Little Pony" marathon.

"...There's a problem, everyone," Peng replied, taking a seat, making sure to dodge Mat's puddle. "Apparently, when we were in Italy, a crazed fan sneaked onto the ship and placed an improvised explosive. It's going to go off in...21 minutes."

"Wow...it would be terrible storytelling if this was all a challenge results post that was written by in a third person omniscient point of view that started off 20 minutes from now and then flashed back to now," Andre said.

Andre was taken out of the room by security guards and did not participate in the challenge.

"Ok...how about this? We could have a challenge where you three have to find the bomb and defuse it! If you do, I'll put you in the Final 3..."

Bumble, Lew, and Wii looked at each other and nodded.

"NOW, WADDLE ON!"

The contestants looked around the cruise ship, filled with anxiety. After 15 minutes, they were about to give up hope...until Wii heard a ticking noise...

"The bomb is in the cargo!"

"Good job, Wii...I'll give you props for finding the bomb, but we need to actually DEFUSE IT!" Mat yelled.

Bumble ran into the door, trying to break it down. It broke off the hinges immediately and flew about 30 feet  away. "Wow...that messed up my nail polish." She rolled her eyes and lead the way inside.

"If I were a possible terrorist who wanted to blow up a cruise ship, where would I put the bomb..." Lew wondered. "OH! I'd hide it in that suitcase over there..."

Lew walked over to the suitcase he indicated above, and sure enough, it was inside.

"Ok...is it time for us to say exactly what was said at the beginning of the post?"

"Yep."

"GET ME THE WIRE CUTTER!" 


"I CAN'T MAKE IT BACK IN TIME...WE'VE ONLY GOT TWO MINUTES!"


"THE CARGO DOOR'S STUCK! WE CAN'T EVEN GET OU---"

"You're the one who broke the cargo door open, Bumble..."

"Oh. Yeah. Right."

Lew opened his mouth and bit the blue wire with his tooth. The bomb ticked all the way to 2 seconds...and stopped.

"Ok, Lew, since you saved our lives, you once again win a challenge in the finals. You've won every single one since you got into the Final 5."

Everyone jumped in the air filled with happiness. They picked Lew up and used him as means of opening the cargo door.

------------------

TL;DR:

• Lew has won 5 tickets for participating and winning!
• Bumble and Wii have earned 1 ticket for participating.
• Andre has earned his second strike of the season.

BE SURE TO LEAVE YOUR VOTE FOR EITHER BUMBLE, WII, OR ANDRE!

------------------

Well, everyone, we are at a critical point in the season. Next week will be one of the most important challenges of the season. 

We are willing to reschedule if a contestant cannot make it.

Hope your skills will be honed enough to win the challenge!

S5C12 - Codeban's Back!

(Souvenir Shop open from not this Monday to not this Friday)

Heyyyy-lo, everybody! Penguin874 here for another week in the Finals of CPSkool. It's week 2 of March, meaning we're in the Final 4! Congratulations to our Final 4: Andre, Bumble, Lew, and Wii!

I can't believe in just under a month, all this work will be over, and we will be rewarding the winner with the secret prize!

This week, we will not go into extreme specifics over the challenge, because this time around, YOU DECIDE WHAT THE CHALLENGE IS. Not the contestants only, but the public in general!

We will have a poll on the left sidebar asking which one of the following challenges you want:

1) Zuma Blitz

Zuma Blitz is a Facebook game (we will give all contestants a fake CP account to play with if this is chosen) where the frog pictured below has a specific colored gem in its mouth. You have to aim the gem (for example, red) at the same color in order to gain points. Whoever has the highest score on the leader boards in about 45 minutes will win.

2) Codeban

This is the most controversial game in CPSkool history. At first, it was definitely going to be a challenge, but then, because of the extremely negative feedback from the community, we decided to get rid of it. But now it's back. If this wins, the contestants will have to play this.

3) SAS Zombie Assault 3

This is a fun little birds-eye view flash game where up to 4 players compete to get the highest score while fighting zombies. It can get very fun, and you unlock weapons as you go on, so I'd say definitely play this beforehand so you can unlock more things than your competitors.

---------------------------------

On Friday, the poll will end, and I will have a quick little post explaining how to win in more detail, along with the times and dates. Whichever challenge you choose will affect the story line!

We'll see you on Friday...be sure to practice ALL the games, because you never know what will win!
