Heh. You won't be here for some time...

I'll go with 15 please, Carol.

Geez. What do you think this is? Countdown?

Square 15.

Everything you pick gets multiplied by 6. If you pick something negative now you'll plummet down to the depths of the unknown. Hehe.

There's no way that 999 is carol, because from my knowledge of his video game collection, I don't believe he has even played Donkey Kong Country.

Square √(3² + 4²) please.

Answer is 5, and "Num Entity" fails hard

Er....you mean this isn't Countdown? I just kind of assumed, with all the numbers, and the blue, and...well. You learn something new every day.

Well, exactly.

Uh, 2 please, Carol.
Why yes, you are indeed stuck with that name.

At some point I'm going to sneak a "Zap" square into the round and I'll make sure you get it. Hah.

Square 2.

That's multiplied by 6 to... SIX HUNDRED GRAND!!? Geez.

You've wiped out your negative deficit in one fell swoop and got yourself a nice positive amount in the bank too.

Internet is being absurdly slow.

Square 6.

although, you're tactics are working on me :/

although i didn't actually do anything to you.

Postby **Pikman** » 2010.11.13 (18:17)

And I'll have 24 to speed things along.

http://www.nmaps.net/user/999_Springs · Postby **999_Springs** » 2010.11.13 (19:56)

fawk picked 3.

Oh well. Your luck didn't last! That's £40,000 times 6 off your score. Thanks for playing!

Pikman picked 24.

24 contained...

(I can't be bothered to upload the square on its own. Here's the board.)

BOARD MUCK-UP!

Now what does that do?

Well. It means that ALL the squares in this round that haven't yet been picked are now jumbled up. So basically I re-randomise the board. The bad news for you is, the bombs and blammo that haven't been picked are now randomised too! So your bomb may well have switched places! You don't know where your own bomb is anymore! BAHAHAHAHA!

Oh and I might make it jumble the squares as you see them too, but I just can't be bothered.

Whoops, I'm blind now. You picking my old bomb square doesn't really help.

Square 1

Square 1

heh, sorry bout that. fawk picked my bomb before you jumbled everything up.

and if i don't hit a blammo or bomb, i'll pick 4.

if a blammo is somehow picked, i'll take button 1

(so i pick 17, pikman takes his square, then i pick 4)

http://www.nmaps.net/user/999_Springs · Postby **999_Springs** » 2010.11.14 (23:40)

Daikenkai picked square 17 which doesn't have Pikman's bomb in it anymore.

BLAMMO!!!

(And that Zap square from last round was behind it.)

Let's just get it over and done with. You picked button 1.

Threshold Situation. We haven't had one of those yet. £75,000 off your score. You might just escape the 24-hour rule though, because I've got LOUSY MATHS COURSEWORK and EVEN LOUSIER PHYSICS COURSEWORK over the next 22 DAYS so I won't be able to check this place all the time. Gah.

Pikman picked 1.

Oooooh.

Oh by the way, that square had 1 million in it before I messed the board up. Good thing I put that board muck-up square in there. Phew.

wait

doesn't the AVx-1 give me a negative multiplier?

and since i've earned negative stuff...that means i gain? :3

Postby **Pikman** » 2010.11.15 (03:05)

Moving along, I'll go with lucky 7.

http://www.nmaps.net/user/999_Springs · Postby **999_Springs** » 2010.11.17 (23:56)

no time to make a proper post square 7 is

will edit board in later. i hate physics coursework. it eats up my time.

daik nice try but you got your multiplier after your minus 75k not before.

Postby **大見解** » 2010.11.18 (02:52)

wait, so it's still giving me positive points...
