Asshat Mole 2012 - Episode 2 (Don't Forget the Rules)

[Art Rooijakkers]

Asshat Mole 2012
Presented by (parts of) Team Asshat

---

12 players. Their mission - earn as much money as possible over the course of 10 episodes. But one of them is a saboteur, a traitor in their midst - THE MOLE.

Each episode will contain a quiz as to the identity of the mole. The player who scores lowest on that quiz will be executed, and will leave the game immediately.

Only one player can win. That person will have figured out the identity of the Mole. The rest will go home empty-handed.

Can you figure it out?

Wie is....


DE MOL?

Challenge Zero - Results

The link to the thread was hidden here. The hint referenced the type of thread itself, a song contest thread. The link, if you cannot see, is a - in the quote.

Only four players successfully found the thread, so unfortunately you have failed this challenge.

The thread is no longer locked! You are now welcome to use it as you wish.

The first post is updated, and the second post will have something of importance soon. Challenge 1 will begin SOON(tm).

And because it has been asked, this account is both myself (Flameaxe) and Pickemgenius.

I told someone towards the beginning of the challenge that an answer of "none" would be sufficient. I can't go back on that, so you win $7500 dollars. The information gathered in this challenge will be important for the quiz so

take note

. The information may not be readily available in the future.

Expect the next challenge shortly (my computer is dying now, GG).

In addition, the first and second posts should be edited with all the information you may need down the line by tomorrow night. Keep an eye out for it.

[Art Rooijakkers]

I totally didn't space on this last night during my move back to town...

Totally.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Challenge Two - Exemption Elimination

Before the second challenge can begin, I will need you all to decide on a player you feel is most deserving of an exemption at this point (can be done in thread).

Other notes: I got off my ass and finished the logo on the first post. It may be an important part of the first two posts.

[Art Rooijakkers]

You can always be cool and go unanimous anyway. DRAMA?

But yeah.

[Art Rooijakkers]

I GOT IT, BRO. (I never really pay much attention in bioprocess anyway)

Challenge Two - Exemption Elimination

You guys have chosen

inspiratieloos

as the player most deserving of an exemption. So congratulations! You win

the chance at

an exemption!

For this challenge, the 11 remaining players will be given 10 boxes. Six of these boxes contain an exemption, four of them contain $10000. You may eliminate however many boxes from play that you wish. This can be done by simply posting '

(Your name) opens Box #

', where your name is...your name, and # is the box number from 1-10. As another reminder, you do not need to open 9/10 boxes for the challenge to be completed. If you are happy with the remaining odds, you may chose to stop eliminating boxes in the same manner. Each player may only open one box maximum.

When you are done eliminating boxes, inspiratieloos will be allowed to choose a box. This box will be the prize given to either inspiratieloos alone (exemption) or $10000. Good luck, team!

[Art Rooijakkers]

Oh, and in case its not clear, I will tell you what is inside the boxes you eliminate.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Only insp. can get the exemption. The other 11 of you are simply eliminating boxes from his choices/changing the odds.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Box 5 contains an

exemption

.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Box 1 Contains an

exemption

.

8 boxes (4 exemptions, 4 money) remain.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Box 4 contains

an exemption

Box 8 contains

money

6 Boxes remain (3 exemptions, 3 money). 1,4,5,8 opened.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Box 2 contains

money

5 Boxes remain (3 exemptions, 2 money). 1,2,4,5,8 opened.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Box 3 contains

an exemption

.

4 boxes remain (2 Exemptions, 2 money). 1,2,3,4,5,8 opened.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Box 10 contains

money.

Only boxes remaining contain exemptions, so inspire automatically gets the exemption! Next up is the first test, so brush up on the information posted in thread up to this point.

All of it may not be available by the time the test is posted. Use this as you will.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Question asked regarding bio information: If an answer was changed or updated, that answer will be the one taken into account for the test if a question about the bio information is asked.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Yeah.

I'm going to send everyone a PM with a 'password' to verify your identity during the tests. Keep this to yourself for your own benefit. (Note: This PM might take a while to go out, working during class and such).

[Art Rooijakkers]

Sorry for the delay, tutoring ran a bit long last night.

Each of you should have a passcode for the quiz PM'd to you. This passcode will be used on the last page of the quiz, it will be obvious where it belongs. DO NOT SHARE THIS CODE. This is my way of verifying someone else isnt taking the test for you.

As for the test itself, it can be found here. You have 48 hours to complete the test. Good luck!

[Art Rooijakkers]

Roughly 12 hours remaining to complete the quiz.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Doing a live execution @ http://www.twitch.tv/xxxpickemgenius at 6:30(~6 min) mountain time will post VOD of it here afterwards

[Art Rooijakkers]

Here is the VOD for the execution:

Challenge Three - Don't Forget the Rules!

Congratulations on surviving the first execution, players! Your next challenge is very simple, remember the rules!

At the beginning of the game, eight rules were posted in the second post of the thread. Those rules are no longer there, and it is your job to recreate that rules post. To do this, simply post in thread

Rule # is: [rule]

. Each player may only guess at a rule once every hour, and the team as a whole may only have up to 5 incorrect answer, at which point the challenge will end.

In order for a guess to be correct, the rule must be within a level of similarity in terms of wording, as well as being correctly matched to the rule number.

Otherwise you have 36 hours to complete the challenge, good luck!

(Note: This is my third time typing this due to the wireless cutting out twice, it might be a little more on the abridged side because of that. If there is anything you need clarified, ask away).

[Art Rooijakkers]

You guys managed to get every one of them wrong. GG

[Art Rooijakkers]

Challenge Three - Don't Forget the Rules!

By wrong, I mean right! With 8 answers correct for a prize of $2500 for each correct (which no one seemed to catch I forgot in the initial post), you have earned $20000 for the pot! This means the team pot is back ahead of the mole pot! GGs.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Challenge Four - Popularity Contest

Oh look, another pretty simple challenge. This episode is easy!

Your goal in this challenge is to campaign around the site for the most support. More specifically, you must go out and find members of the site (not in the game, and RedPanda is excluded as well) to post in this thread with a post that says

Go [Playername]!

. This campaign will last 72 hours, and the player with the highest number of posts directed towards them are offered an exemption.

As a bonus, if the team as a whole gets over 60 people to post in support, I will add $10000 to the pot. I will only count accounts with 1 post prior to this one (or in other words, no random alts). The support must be for a specific player, posts of "go team" or something along those lines do not count.

Good luck, and

Go Eteocles!

.

[Art Rooijakkers]

Three orders of business:

1) Challenge Results: Inspire (3), Xalxe (6), Other people had less than 6.

Xalxe will be exempt from the next test

.
2) XtopherusD has quit the game. He will not be replaced.
3) The test will go forward as planned. It will be posted tomorrow morning (when I wake).

[Art Rooijakkers]

Episode 2 - Test

The test can be found here. You have 48 hours to complete the test. Your passcode will be the same as the last test.

Good luck!

[Art Rooijakkers]

Bump goes the thread.
