1. The SHAP is sold out!
2. I gave out two final Team Switch Passes (Secret Pass) to random
players. They were Dark Link/MegaPixarFan, and Silver/lucariopokemon1.
They have switched teams. So now Dark Link is on Team Triforce and
Silver is on Team Warp Star.
Sandile: Sorry for the wait. I had to wait an extra day to send
this out due to YouTube maintenance. First off, I will give my opinion
on Virtual Reality gaming, as I said I would in the challenge message:
I'm kind of controversial about the idea. It sounds cool in
theory. I mean hey, who wouldn't want to experience of being in a video
game at least ONCE. Being able to walk through a fantasy world and kill
monsters, and (hopefully) not having to worry about dying in real life.
But there are just too many bad things about it... I could see a lot of
people becoming too absorbed in these games (especially if they became
like the way they are in Sword Art Online, not just seeing in a first
person view, but actually being able to touch and taste in the game) and
losing track of time. Some people would spend HOURS inside these
virtual reality worlds and start to forget about their real life. And
then there would be the people that would kill people in the game, and
transfer it to real life. I don't really think Call of Duty can affect
people that badly (at if they are sane), but killing people in Virtual
Reality would feel too realistic, and it could mess people up. I also
don't want regular games to die out. Certain genres such as turn-based
RPGs and platformers wouldn't fit in well as a Virtual Reality game. But
I still think it's too early to form a concrete opinion. Because
Virtual Reality is still taking its baby steps. I still see REAL Virtual
Real as something that won't happen for a little while. So I'd rather
just wait and see what happens then form some big opinion and stand by
it.
Now here are the results of the challenge:
1. Team Triforce (8/8) (100%) (Safe)
2. Team Warp Star (9/9) (100%) (Eliminate 1)
3. Team Screw Attack (9/9) (100%) (Eliminate 2)
Toad: Every single player did the challenge. Some took awhile to
do so (past when I said I would end it). But still, great job guys! I
didn't send any reminders and everyone got it done. I am especially
happy considering the fact that this challenge actually required you to
type a little, and not just give me two sentences.
Some players could have written a little more, but no one wrote such a low amount that I couldn't give full credit.
Sandile: You may be wondering how I decided which team earned
which ranking. I decided to give first place to Team Triforce since they
were the first to have every player complete the challenge. Next was
Team Warp Star, and last was Screw Attack. So Team Triforce is safe,
Team Warp Star must vote off one, and Team Screw Attack must vote off
two players. **Warp Star Members: Make sure you vote TWO players, or
your vote will not count!**
Toad: I was originally planning on giving you guys the order in
which the players on your team completed the challenge. But I decided
not to, as some of the early send-ins didn't have as much effort as some
of the later ones. So I thought it would be unfair for someone who was
the last to do it but did an amazing job got bombarded with votes.
Plus, I wanted this to be a close elimination. There will be a lot
of them in the merge, so you better get used to them now!
Sandile: Explain your votes, leave confessionals, and BUY PASSES!
The Nintendo Shop will close as soon as the elimination video for
Eliminations 94, 95, and 96 is released. (Two eliminations from now) So
if there are any passes you still want, buy them very soon!
The player list and Nintendo shop are below, as always.

1. Hammer Bro is the new team captain of Team Triforce.
2. Team 1-Up's team members have split between Team Triforce and
Team Warp Star. I decided to give both Team Triforce and Warp Star two
members each and give Screw Attack none. Why? Well, Screw Attack has
been doing very good, and in order for the other teams to compete with
them, they need the extra players.
Team Triforce Add-ons:
Tails/gopokemon121
Link/hyrulequest21
Team Warp Star Add-ons:
Popo/masterofflam
Yoshi/yymastaconfuctious
All four of these players are very capable, so I'm expecting a lot
of competition between the teams now. Now for the challenge!
Sandile: Lately I have been watching an anime called "Sword Art
Online". This show involves virtual reality gaming, and it has got me
thinking. Virtual Reality gaming used to be just some crazy, futuristic
idea. But it's starting to become a reality. (The Oculus Rift will be a
Virtual Reality system, but I honestly know little to nothing about it.)
So for this challenge I want you to answer a question:
"What do you think of Virtual Reality gaming?"
Do you like the idea of it? Hate it? Are you interested in playing
virtual reality video games? What are the positives and negatives to
Virtual Reality gaming?
So just give me at least a couple of paragraphs about it. Please don't just write something like this:
"I think it sounds cool, I would buy it."
I actually wanna hear your full-out opinion. Not just a sentence saying it sounds cool.
I'm gonna grade simply this challenge. If you put effort into your
answer, you will be marked as completing the challenge. If you write me
two effortless sentences, you will be marked as only half-completing
it, and you will only get $5 instead of the usual $10.
Toad: Only three teams remain. Two challenges remain until the
merge. I want too see some competition! Third place will eliminate two,
and second will eliminate one. So you are gonna want your team to be the
one that's safe!
Sandile: The challenge will (hopefully) end on Friday or Saturday, so get going!
