Lost: Where and When Are We? [Winner: Rémi]
Posted: Mon Jan 26, 2009 5:30 pm
Lost, my absolute favorite show, has returned in its 5th Season. So in honor of this, I’m introducing a CC battle with a splash of Clue thrown in. We are going to (completely unscientifically) determine who will be the only Lost member alive at the end of season 6 and where and when they will be at that time. (Hopefully in the real show, there will be more than 1 current Lost member alive but you know how they love to kill people off.)
This will be a 1v1 showdown. Each player will be one character from the show and will have one place and one time that they belong to. Each player will have 3 maps of his own. He (she) will fight one person each round against that player’s maps. There will be 6 battles each round. 3 of the first player’s maps and 3 of the second’s.
[spoiler=More gameplay details]If each player wins on all of his maps, he gets to keep them all. If the player loses on one or more of his maps, he loses them. A player is in until he has no more maps. If a player loses on his map but wins on his opponents map, they switch maps. If a player wins on both the maps in one category, he keeps his but his opponent no longer has his map.
If a player has lost his character, location or time period but still has one or two of the others, he moves on to the next round but will have to play his opponents map twice in that category. The only way to steal a map from an opponent is to win it both times. The game will go until every player except one has been eliminated.
If there is an odd number of players in a round, one player chosen at random will receive a bye for that round (they weren't in the episode).
If a player does not respond or play, he has forfeited the game and his character (if he has one at that time) dies.[/spoiler]
