Since we've gotten up to 9/10 ships for three contestants, I'll be revealing both squares and the winners as they're uncovered rather than at rollover. I'll ping again when both winners have been revealed with the rules for the winning round.

@GrayGriffin @CatgirlWerewolf @ArithMedic @Moondragon007 @WanderingTurtle @Necoryn @MooshiDraws @Honeyedbee @Grymmlock We have our winners! [b]Biscuit [/b]and [b]Jellybean [/b]will face off in the final round! To satisfy curiosity, I have uploaded ship locations for all teams to the [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pJAADqGT9uSPUrFJDM0PlB8TNAR5Yscylf3g53DDgkg/edit#gid=100550871]spreadsheet[/url]. This week: [LIST] [*] Rocket took a total of 43 direct hits. [LIST] [*][b]10/10 ships sank. [/b] [/LIST] [*] Biscuit took a total of 41 direct hits. [LIST] [*][b]9/10 ships sank.

However, you cannot switch to the other team mid-match. [*] There is a limit of 30 guesses per day. This is subject to change on Saturday as the event will [b]end at rollover on Sunday[/b]. This limit is new and separate from any guesses you may have already sent today. [*] I will update the spreadsheet as I log guesses throughout the day. You are allowed to split your guesses between messages if you want to see a few more squares uncovered before using all your turns. [*] If you are doing this, please note that [b]I am offline between 14:00-FR time and rollover[/b] each day and no updates will occur at these times. [*] Sinking the [b]mothership [/b]will be rewarded with a gilded decorative chest. Each hit on the mothership is worth 2 tickets. [*] All ships must be sunk for a player to win the game. [/LIST] [img]https://i.imgur.com/UgTHGGc.png[/img] Each team has placed: [LIST] [*] [b]5[/b] 3-square ships [*] [b]2[/b] 4-square ships [*] [b]2[/b] 6-square ships [*] [b]1[/b] 10-square mothership. This ship [b]does not follow conventional battleship rules[/b] and is a different shape for each player. It will have no purely diagonal connections. [/LIST]

@DuskAwakening

Just to clarify a couple things, do you mean the motherships' shapes are kinda snake-like? As in, they could go in a horizontal line for a few squares, then turn vertical, then go back to horizontal? Something like this, for example:
__ __
__|

Other question is, when you say this contest will end at rollover on Sunday, does that mean we have until the end of the day Sunday, or just through Saturday night (FRT)?

@WanderingTurtle It'll end when this dominance week rolls over, which is in 1 day and 12 hours, which means only Saturday night and not Sunday ^^

However, if there's no winner by that point, I see no problem extending it one more day - I'll make the decision closer to the end of the week.

The motherships both have a random shape! They're not necessarily long, they can also be wide, but they will always be connected by the side of a square.

eg.

|__|__|__|__|
|__|__|

But never

@DuskAwakening

Aha, thank you for the explanations! (Also I somehow thought today was Saturday for a while there, so I was kinda worried about either team being able to win in less than 24 hours. Oopsie! :P)

@GrayGriffin @CatgirlWerewolf @ArithMedic @Moondragon007 @WanderingTurtle @Necoryn @MooshiDraws @Honeyedbee @Grymmlock


The daily cap of guesses is still 30, but if we do not have a winner by rollover at the end of today, I will be extending the event throughout Sunday. I'll ping again at Sunday rollover to clarify whether this will happen -

The spreadsheet has been updated!

Today:

• Jellybean took 1 direct hit.
