The Mole--FINAL CHALLENGE!!!

[amarise]

Tum te tum tum............... Any idea when the next challenge might be?

I'm working on it... It's the FINAL QUIZ. I'm trying to decide how many questions I want to put on it, because I don't want it to be too long, but I want it to be fair and still a challenge. And yes, the Mole will have to participate too.

Also, there's a nice twist coming, that you may not be expecting.

Yay.

What has happened to this game?

The last challenge should be coming out tomorrow, barring some major catastrophe. I'll make the prize extra good to make up for the long wait, I promise.

Speaking of which, I need to go back and calculate how much it is currently.

Until then, I would advise at least glancing over details in the other threads, because everything on the final quiz will have at least been mentioned at some point earlier in the game. It's going to work a little differently too. And that twist I promised... you may or may not see it coming.

AT LONG LAST...

The final challenge is here. And it's the FINAL QUIZ!!!

But wait. Where is it? Here's a minor twist (but not the big one) to this challenge. You will only have a limited amount of time to complete your quiz. In order to start the clock, you must PM me. The clock starts as soon as you get your quiz. If I don't reply to your PM within 5 minutes, or before you get off the computer, DELETE it so that I don't send you your quiz by mistake while you're not on, causing you to run out of time. Your time starts when you are SENT your quiz (not when you open it up), and it ends when you send me your answers. If, god forbid, you get your quiz when you're not on, don't open it, and instead PM me and I'll resend it.

The quiz is 25 questions long, and you are permitted to look back in the threads to find your answers. You have a day maximum to send in your answers. You will also receive a multiplier on your score based on how long you take:

x2: Less than 10 minutes
x1.5: Less than 30 minutes
x1.25: Less than 60 minutes
x1: Less than 2 hours
x.75: Less than 4 hours
x.5: Less than 8 hours
x.25: Less than a day

EVERYONE who completes the quiz will come away with a prize, which will be your score (up to 50) times 1000 NP. The highest scorer will win part of the pot that has been building up the entire time, plus what would they would get anyway for their quiz. The second place person will receive less of the pot, and the third place will receive even less. Last gets none of it

Good luck all, and let me know when you're ready.

EDIT: This is going to be difficult because I can't tell when I'll be on. Just be here a lot, you'll eventually catch me. It would be best if you caught me before Tursday, because school starts then and I'll be on considerably less.

Alright, I think I've given everyone AMPLE time to at least contact me, so you have until 12:00 PM on the 16th (Central Time, as always) to contact me about this final challenge. Even if you can't be on at the same time as me, we'll work something out. Just let me know, OK?

There are still 2 people who haven't contacted me, so they need to hurry up!

[CWisgood]

Just sent in my answers and a random number! =D

[May]

Just wanted to let everyone know that I won't be around for about a week or so. I'm hoping I don't miss the conclusion and discovery of the Mole!

THE END RESULTS!!!!!

Here's the closing ceremony, where the host who never really did anything shows up and tells us who the winner is. But first...

"Will the mole come forward?"

At that moment, Kugetsu and CWisgood both stepped forward. Huh? "You guys were BOTH Moles! Isn't it funny how I did that? I sent the exact same PM to both of you, so that there would be one on each team for the first challenge. You didn't do quite as well as I had hoped at blocking the other players, but since CW was the best Mole (IMO), he gets a 10K bonus! Now for the quiz results:

CW got a score of 19.5 on the quiz, with a x1 multiplier. That's 19.5 points.
Amarise scored 22, also with a 1x multiplier. She gets 22 points.
Mayanspypilot got a score of 18, again with a 1x multiplier. She gets 18 points.
Finally, Kugetsu scored 24 points, but he also finished within 30 minutes, earning him a 1.5x multiplier. That's 36 points!

So the standings are:
Winner: Kugetsu
2nd: amarise
3rd: CWisgood
4th: mayanspypilot

Here's how this works. The pot is at 104900, and each person gets a share of the pot (except for #4 ). Kugetsu gets 60%, so that's 62940. Plus the 36000 from his quiz, Kuge earns a total of 98940 NP! Amarise came in second, earning 30%, or 31470 from the pot, plus 22000 from the quiz, netting a nice 53470 NP! Third came CWisgood, who only gets 10% of the pot (10490), but also gets 10000 for the Best Mole award, and 19500 for his quiz. That totals to 29900 NP! Finally, mayanspypilot gets 17000 for his quiz. Contact me with your Neo information, and put a cheap junk item in your shop for me to buy!

Thanks for playing everyone! I hope you had fun, and I hope you enjoy your prize money!

[amarise]

lol I knew it. I wonder if anyone else guessed that there were two moles. Congrats, Kugey, this is definately your game.

[CWisgood]

Yay for 10K bonuses!!

My Neo username is same as my PPT username.

[Kugetsu]

Heh, I guessed that everyone was the Mole, so I was a bit off on that.

Anyway, good job everyone, and great game TOSO!

Ehhe I always put Kuge down on my list of "Who do you think is the mole" but when I was booted I had my doubts

[Pixa]

I think I always put CWisgood on my list. I don't remember if I put Kuge on there, hehe. Congratulations! It was a fun game for the short time space I was in it.
