The Users Challenge: Season 4

Yep, that's right, you heard correctly. There are now enough active members to revive the highly-popular series, The Users Challenge! If you weren't here for this (and most of you weren't) click Here, Here, or Here. The prize for winning this is to move up one spot in user rights. For example, if you have no rights, and win, you will become a chat mod/rollback. If you are a CM/RB, you will become an administrator!

==DISCLAIMER==
This year, we are really cracking down on basing it off how well you do on challenges. We're not gonna save someone just because they're our friend, so don't get hurt if you get voted off. Everyone has a clean slate, whether you've been here for 1 day or 3 years
==Format==
Each round, there will be a challenge. The winner of that week's challenge is exempt from elimination, and receives a special prize. They also get to chose one person to be up for elimination. The rest of the competitors will then vote for one more person to be up for elimination. Then, there will be a Last Chance Challenge, and after that, the judges will vote on who will be eliminated. 
==Rules==
* If you miss an assignment, there will be a consequence. If you miss three, you will be DQ'd
* When voting you must not be bias as much as possible, you must choose who you think is a better fit.
* No copying assignments
* All assignments must be turned in within the deadline, not doing so will cause it to count as forfeit, unless you have talk to me about it.
* No one is allowed to change their assignment after it is already posted! (with an exception of grammar and spelling errors)
* The winner will be choosen by Tyler, Shan, Delilah, and Justin
* No sabatoging any other contestant's assignment.
* This season, the judges have agreed to base most, if not all, decisions on the challenges. This way personal relationships won't get in the way, and everyone has a fair chance.
==Week 1==
Hannah: Hello everyone, and welcome to Season Four of The Users Challenge! Now alot of you here are new, and aren’t quite sure what this is. Well, it’s a competition to determ…
Manuel: I SHOULD’VE WON SEASON ONE! IT’S RIGGED!
Hannah: Security, please take care of him
*Security throws him out*
Hannah: As I was saying, it’s a competition to determine who is most fit to win a higher position on the wiki, which means you will become a chat moderator, and a rollback, which gives you more power on chat, and through editing. I’m Hannah, and I’ll be your host. The judges will be: Tyler, Shan, Delilah, and Justin. They will be deciding who wins each challenge, and who goes home every week. Say hi to them
Competitors: Hi
Tyler: Hello everyone, I’m looking forward to see how y’all progress through this competition. Good Luck!
Delilah: Hi! I want to wish eve…
Nina: SLUT!
Delilah: I’m going to be taking that into consideration when judging your first challenge
Shan: Ello Mates, I hope you all are prepared because this competition is bloody hard.
Justin: Get ready to work
Hannah: Well, the people who have been here in previous competitions know how it work, but for the newbies let me explain how this year’s format will work. Each week there will be a challenge. You will have a few days to complete it. If you are unable just talk to one of the judges, they are understanding. The judges will then deliberate, and decide who they think did the best, and they will be declared the winner. Not only are they safe from elimination, but they get to put someone up for elimination. The other person up for elimination will be decided via secret vote. Previous seasons have gone similar to that. However, this time there’s a twist, there will be a Last Chance Assignment, which gives you one last opportunity to prove yourself to the judges. They will then deliberate, and decide who did best on the LCA, and whomever they feel did better will be chosen to stay. Whoever loses, goes home.
Nina: I’m hungry, Can I have some potatoes?
Hannah: No, and I don’t want another peep out of you
Nina: Peep Peep
Hannah: Anyway, your guys’ first challenge will be starting right now. The challenge is to create a relationship page. If you don’t know what that is, just ask one of the judges. It can be of any two people.
Tyler: Actually, we decided that it can’t be of any of the judges because all of the ladies would want their page to be of them with me.
Hannah: I don’t think that would be a problem, but whatever floats your boat. Anyway, it needs a photo gallery, a trivia section, a ship name, and their status. However, don’t limit yourself to just those things. Get creative! The things you will be judged on is how technically sound the page is, and how creative it is!
Justin: We know alot of you don’t have alot of experience, so us judges are here to help if you need it.
Hannah: Get to work!
REVEALING OF THE WINNER
Hannah: Hello, everyone. All of you have completed the first challenge for TUC (except for Elliot, who talked to us). Congratulations!
*Applause*
Hannah: Okay, so the judges have deliberated, and decided on a winner for the challenge, but first, we have confessionals from certain competitors. I’d like to direct your attention to the screen
*CONFESSIONAL*
Question: What were your thoughts on the first challenge? And who do you think stood out?
Nina: think that the first challenge was a bit too hard for a first challenge as a lot of people have little to no experience with coding and stuff, but it's okay because it was fun. I think that Alma, Monika and Sean stood out most to me, but if I had to pick one of them, I'd pick Monika because her page was the funniest, most creative and most original.
Brandon: Personally, the challenge was exhausting because I actually had to figure out how to work the wikia, even though I've done this two other times, lol. As for standing out, I really like Monika's.
Sean: I thought the first challenge was pretty interesting and I had some fun doing it, but I didn't look at anyone elses so I dunno if anyone stood out besides my own.
Alma: i think henrik did a really good job with his page, but i don't think anyone did bad
*CONFESSIONAL OVER*
Hannah: Okay then
Tyler: Wow, y’all are really boring.
Delilah: Yeah, I was hoping for some drama
Shan: Those bloody Americans got lucky in the war!
Hannah: Shut up Shan. Anywho, we’re gonna let the judges talk now.
Justin: *Shouting from the bathroom* I have food poisoning! I’m gonna let the others talk right now!
Delilah: While you guys all did extremely well. And there was less confusion than we expected. Two stood out to us
Shan: The two that really stood out to us were: Henrik, and Alma. The rest of you did great! But these two were a cut above
Tyler: That being said, there can only be one winner, and that is…
Justin: *Diarrhea noises*
Delilah, Shan, and Tyler: ALMA!
Hannah: Congratulations, Alma, you are safe from elimination for the first week! Now you get to send one person to the bottom two, who will be up for elimination. Who will it be?
Alma: Thank you guys so much! I hate to do this, but I’m sending Sean to the bottom two. 
Hannah: Sean, please stand up here with me. The rest of you will now be participating in a secret vote to decide who will be facing off against Sean in the Last Chance Assignment, and after that, the judges will vote, and send someone home. Good Luck!
VOTING RESULTS
Hannah: So, you all voted, and it was a tight one. When I call your name, it means you are safe.
Henrik
Monika Karla 
Elliot
Brandon, and Nina, you two both received two votes. So, we decided to show a third party both of your pages, and they decided which one they liked better. Whomever he chooses is safe. The other is facing Sean in the bottom two.
The last person safe is….Nina
Nina: Yay!
Hannah: This means the bottom two is Brandon v Sean. You guys are going to be given a Last Chance Assignment. Your assignment is going to consist of an “essay” question. You will both respond (about a paragraph or so), and the judges will then decide whom they are going to send home. The question is:
A new user is on chat. They were recently invited by a long-time user. They are annoying everyone, but technically not causing any harm. How do you respond?
Hannah: Again, only about a paragraph or two. It is due by Thursday, and please either PM it to Tyler, or send it to him on via skype.
ELIMINATION
Hannah: Welcome back, Brandon, and Sean. You both have submitted your essays, and here they are to be displayed prominently.
'''
Sean’s Essay:  If a new user joined the chat and was invited by a long time user, and this person ended up annoying everyone, I would try to be kind to this person anyway. Even if they are annoying, they aren't doing any harm and I don't like to personally participate on annoying that new person back. I respond in a fashion that is more kind to the person even if it risks the person staying around longer. The person causes no harm, and no harm will befall them, at least not from me. Of course others might go about it differently but there's my take on a new annoying user.
'''
Brandon’s Essay: I personally would just talk to an admin who is more "qualified" to deal with the problem and suggest a meeting to decide what the best consequence for their behavior would be. But, of course, this all depends on the actions of the person affecting the other users. If it wasn't anything extreme, then I'd simply recommend ignoring the person because not much can be done with someone you find annoying because rules have to be trespassed before any form of a punishment can be administered. However, if the person invited this user, you can always discuss a solution with them, as it is somewhat likely that they know this person on a more intimate level and can work out the problems without any long-lasting consequence.
Hannah: The judges have deliberated, and they now have their answers. Delilah, who do you vote to stay on The Users Challenge.
Delilah: I think Sean’s essay was more along the lines of what I was looking for, so Sean
Hannah: That is one vote for Sean. Shan, who do you vote for?
Shan: I thought both of you did excellent, but Sean’s was more professional. And for that reason, I vote to keep Sean.
Hannah: I just got word that Justin’s food poisoning will once again prevent him from vo…
Justin: I’m here!
Hannah: Oh good, there you are. Anyway, who do you vote to stay?
Justin: Well, I thought they were both good, but I like how Brandon’s was more elaborate, and detailed, so I vote to keep Brandon.
Hannah: Okay, two votes for Sean, and one vote for Brandon. Tyler’s vote will decide it all. If he votes for Sean, he stays. If he votes for Brandon, it goes into a deadlock. Tyler, who do you choose?
Tyler: This is tough because you would both of y’all would make a great addition, and it’s tough to see one of you go home, so I based everything off the essay response. Again, Brandon’s is probably more detailed, but I have to cast my vote for Sean because I liked what he would do in that situation better.
Hannah: So, that decides it. Brandon, you made a good effort, and we would love to have you back if we aren’t cancelled again. Good luck to all of you in Round 2!
==Week 2==
Hannah: Hello everyone, and welcome to Round 2 of The Users Challenge. Last week, we saw everyone give a good effort in the challenge, but ultimately, Alma set herself apart. She sent Sean to the bottom two, and the rest voted in Brandon. Also, here’s a bit of a hint: MAKE ALLIANCES. It can help you get farther, and frankly it makes things more interesting for the judges and I.
Shan: Blimey.
Hannah: Okay, so for Round 2, your challenge is to...Make a Template! It should say “This User wants *your name here* to win The Users Challenge” Now, we understand that this challenge may be difficult for some of you, so this is why you have until Friday to do it, and all of the judges will walk you through it. Please make it as creative as possible. Good luck!
REVEALING OF THE WINNER
'''
Hannah: Hello, everyone. Henrik, Elliot, and Karla did not complete this challenge for various reasons, so it comes down to Sean, and the Croats.
'''
*Applause*
'''
Hannah: Okay, so the judges have deliberated, and decided on a winner for the challenge, but first, we have confessionals from certain competitors. I’d like to direct your attention to the screen
'''
*CONFESSIONAL* 
'''
Question: Who would you most like to see eliminated, and why?
'''
Sean: I vote out Delilah, she's a dangerous and vicious player.
'''
Nina: Alma because I hate Croatians.
'''
*CONFESSIONAL OVER*
'''
Nina: I Did NOT say that
'''
Hannah: There may have been some creative editing.
Tyler: Again, useless footage.
'''
Hannah: So why don’t you guys just reveal who won
Justin: Well you guys were all pretty close, and the coding was very good for all of you, so we really had to nitpick. Alma, while close, the phrase on your template was slightly off, and we deducted points because frankly everyone’s was pretty much perfect. That being said it came down to basically personal preferance. Without further ado the winner is...Monika! Monika you can send one person to the bottom two.
*REVEALING OF THE BOTTOM TWO*
Hannah: Monika, who do you choose to send to the bottom two?
Monika: Alma
Hannah: Okay, so now the votes are collected, but due to technical difficulties, Karla’s vote can’t be seen, and she is not here right now
Nina: Um, she voted for Sean
Hannah: How can we trust you? The only other person she could vote for is you?
Nina: Well I’m telling the truth. She voted for Sean. She told me. She wouldn’t vote for me. We’re friends in real life.
Hannah: But so are Monika, and Alma, and Monika threw her under the bus.
Nina: Yeah, but that was because I told her to!
Audiance: *gasps*
Nina: Poop
Hannah: So the votes are in, and I will now call you up if you are safe:
Monika
Karla
Hannah: The last person safe is…
Nina.
Hannah: Anyway, the bottom two is Alma vs Sean. Your Last Chance Assignment is to respond to this prompt to the best of your ability: "An anonymous user comes on chat, and tries to make friends. (S)he is doing nothing wrong, but is kinda mysterious. What do you do?"
ELIMINATION
Hannah: Welcome back, Alma and Sean. You both have submitted your essays, and here they are to be displayed prominently.
Sean’s Essay:  “If an anonymous user were to come to the chat and ask mysteriously while trying to make friends, I would be open to the idea of being friendly. I would ask introductory questions as well as provide answers and be polite to them, such as how they went about finding the wiki. They may not be being so much mysterious as they may just be shy, even if they are connecting to others via internet. Be nice, as is the ever famous golden rule, "Treat others as you would like to be treated."
Alma’s Essay: “If this person was doing nothing wrong, I would be nice to them and politely ask them some questions. I wouldn't start any unnecessary drama, I'd probably ask someone else for advice on what i should do and leave it to someone with more experience to do what they think is best.”
Hannah: The judges have deliberated, and they now have their answers. Unfortunately, Shan can not be with us tonight due to gonorrhea. Delilah, who do you vote to stay on The Users Challenge. 
Delilah: I was really rooting for Alma, but Sean’s essay was clearly better, so I have to save Sean.
Hannah: Tyler, who do you choose to save?
Tyler: I’m gonna have to save Sean, his essay was the perfect response, and exactly what I was looking for.
Hannah: Justin, who do you choose to save? Sean, if he chooses you, you’re safe. Alma, you need this to stay in the game.
Justin: Hmmm
*Pause for Effect*
Justin: they both did good
*another pause*
Nina: Choose already!
Justin: I’m gonna have to choose Sean.
Hannah: So, that decides it. Alma, you did well both challenges, but the ball just didn’t roll your way. And if we can avoid cancellation for one more season, we’d love to have you back. Good luck to all of you in Round 3!
==Week 3==
Hannah: Hello everyone, welcome back to The Users Challenge, and get ready for round three. Now, I have some unfortunate news for all of you. Henrik, Karla, and Elliot have had to leave for personal reasons. So Monika, Nina, Sean, Congratulations! You guys are all in the final three!
*An RV crashes into the TUC set, and three people walk out*
Hannah: Um, who are you.
Cael: Um, we were on our way back to Boston, but we got lost. Do you mind if we stay here?
*Producers and Judges whisper a bunch of crap, and talk to Hannah*
Hannah: Okay, so here’s the deal these three nice folks will be competing in The Users Challenge! What are your names?
Cael: I’m Cael, and they are Sam, and Sarah. So um what’s the deal? We can stay here for free if we participate in your show?
Hannah: Yep. Good Luck! So, here’s the deal. Your next challenge. You will be playing a game of...Prisoner’s Dilemma.
Sarah: So um what’s Prisoner’s Dilemma?
Hannah: Sit your ass down! I’m getting to it! Okay, you will be participating in a single elimination tournament. It is One vs One. So the way the game works is: Each player has two cards: Cooperate, and Defect. If both players choose cooperate both get 300 points. If both players choose defect, they both lose 10 points. If one chooses Cooperate, and the other chooses Defect, the person who Defects gets 500 points, and the person who Cooperates loses 100 points. So each game will have five rounds. You will send the judges all at once your answers for each round in the following format:
1.Cooperate
2.Defect
3.Defect
4.Defect
5.Cooperate
Hannah: At the end of the game, the person who has the most points will move on, and the person who loses is eliminated. That’s it! 
Hannah: Hey, where is Monika?
*Producers whisper in her ear*
Hannah: So another Croat is screwing us over, and is leaving. So that means...either Alma or Brandon is coming back! Judges, I need you to vote, and quickly. We don’t need a reason
Delilah: Brandon
Tyler: Brandon
Justin: Brandon
Hannah: Okay! Welcome back Brandon. So here’s the way it’s gonna work. Because Sean won the last elimination, he gets a first round bye, and the randomizer selected Sam as the other. So here are the first round matchups:
Nina v Cael
Sarah v Brandon
Hannah: Good Luck!

Final Matchup: Brandon v Nina
Update: Since some people want to be a pain in the ass, I had to adjust this. In round 3 the winner will still be who gets the most points, but you won't be "competing" with each other. You will both be "competing" with a mystery report. It will be 12 rounds.

Sarah.
Hannah: So it’s Cael v Sarah. The battle of Boston. Your LCA is to make a blog describing what you would do if a user with rights has been causing trouble on the wiki. It should be around two paragraphs. Good Luck!
