Spoiler: Cephrir chooses to save...
Save the Dragons!


Spoiler: MURDERCAT chooses to save...
Xalxe!

Which means that Racefan12 is eliminated in fifth place. The Lists have spoken.


Congratulations on making the final four this is a huge accomplishment in the game of The List. Your final list will only be three players long...it's due tomorrow at 10:30pm EDT ((expired on 2021-05-08 22:30:00)). If all players indicate that they'd like to accelerate the deadline when they submit, then I'll post the challenge once I have all three lists.

Round 6 Challenge: Sprint to the Finish


Welcome to the final challenge. When this is done, we will know our fourth-place finisher, and the winner of this challenge will have the important decision of choosing who will join them in the Finale based on their list in this round.

This challenge is pretty simple - here’s how it is going to work. When you start, you’ll be presented with three questions. These might be about the game, or general knowledge trivia, or really just about anything else, but you
are
allowed to use outside sources in order to answer them. Each of these three questions has only two possible answers. The first answer will correspond to one of two Your World Of Text pages, the second will correspond to an x-coordinate (horizontal) on that YWOT grid, and the third will correspond to a y-coordinate (vertical) on that grid. You’ll use your answers to the three questions to identify the correct position on the correct YWOT page. Once you end up there, you’ll have one final task to complete. You’ll submit whatever is necessary for that task into the finishing form, and then your clock will stop. There are “incorrect” tasks at all eight possible locations, so make sure you answer the questions right!

(You can use the menu at the extreme top right of the YWOT page to have it show coordinates; I highly recommend you do this.)

The player who completes this sequence in the fastest time will win the challenge. Should any players fail to complete the challenge properly, their scores will depend on how far they got into the challenge (eg. a player who gets to the correct YWOT position and grid, but fails the task there, will score better than a player who got a question wrong and thus went to the wrong YWOT position, who will score better than a player who got two questions wrong and went to a “more wrong” YWOT position). You have until Sunday at 8pm EDT ((expired on 2021-05-09 20:00:00)) to begin the challenge; the start form is found HERE.

Please have an image editor at the ready for the final task, and be advised that mobile devices do not interact particularly well with the YWOT website. Please do not make any edits to the YWOT websites.

Since I've been asked: Please scroll manually in the YWOT. If there are ways to get around having to do that, please don't.

Why do the lists even consider of all three players?

Well I guess that's a question of why include someone at the bottom of them.

Results! For the last time this game, let's see how y'all did.

Spoiler: Answers
1) Three
2) "the"
3) Over 30

This should've directed you to (+25, +25) on the "thefinalchallenge" page, where you had to solve a 6x4 slide puzzle that I was pretty sure was 6x6 when I found the link to it (sorry MURDERCAT!). The incorrect tasks were word searches, jigsaw puzzles, sudoku puzzles, and a different slide puzzle that was actually 6x6.


Spoiler: In third place, completing the correct task in 16:40...
Xalxe!


Spoiler: And in fourth place, completing an incorrect task in 16:39...
Save the Dragons. I'm sorry, but this is the end of the road for you.


Spoiler: Our winner, completing the correct task in 12:27...
MURDERCAT is going to the finale!

Which means Cephrir finished in second place, completing the correct task in 15:33.

Xalxe!

Which means Cephrir, the lists have spoken.


And with that, we have our two finalists. Jurors, you will have until 10pm EDT on Tuesday 5/11 ((expired on 2021-05-11 22:00:00)) to question the two finalists and determine who you'd like to vote for to win The List. Afterwards, the jury will have until 10pm EDT on Wednesday 5/12 to cast their votes for the winner. We'll read the votes live afterwards and name our winner!

Hello friends. I have several questions for you.

The first being the obligatory gif the jurors question.

The second, what were your strategies for your lists? Did you have any? Did you every do any shady trading deals or purposefully try to screw somebody by placing them at the bottom?

The third, how happy to not have to write a speech are you?

I'll be back <3

My opening statement is in bulleted form because I got my second shot on Friday and I am still lightly dizzy.
  • I hope everybody had a good time playing this game! I did!
  • MURDERCAT is a good and whoever wins will deserve it
  • My strategy for this game was to be really good at challenges. Tragically I appear to be rusty at this and needed to be saved an uncomfortable number of times.
  • However, I think you will find that this proves that I embody both aspects of The List: Outplay (good at challenges) and Outfriend (get saved when you need it)
  • yes I am absolutely working backwards from my desired conclusion, I'm not a scientist
  • I fully planned to get eliminated in fifth for being a challenge beast but it turns out that instead making friends gets you to the final 2, who knew! not me for my eight years of LSGs!
  • in conclusion: if you vote for me I will run a game on here
    (a
    short
    game, I cannot be trusted with an LSG yet, I gotta work my way up to that)
    . If you do not vote for me, I will also do this.
Lots of Love,
Xalxe
