TIEBREAKER TIME
Suddenly, a crackling announcement on the loudspeaker: "ATTENTION! LEEROI AND DIANEA TO THE RINK. LEEROI AND DIANEA. AND THEIR GERBILS. TO THE RINK."
It was time... For the tie-breaker. An audience had gathered to view this battle - a dance battle, a battle for supremacy on the ice. All four gerbils would be tossed into the ring, and only one troll would emerge victorious. The other... Would receive the bronze trophy.
You only have a few minutes to get your gameplan ready! You can choose two choices, one for each of your gerbils, so CHOOSE CAREFULLY! When you're ready, please
PM your choices to the mule.
Quote:
FIRST GERBIL:
A) Assist (+0, doubles second Gerbil's score!)
B) Frighten (+0, negates opponent gerbil's move if they are dancing or assisting!)
C) Dance (+2)
D) Chew Leg (+1)
SECOND GERBIL:
A) Attack (+4 points if opponent is dancing, +0 points otherwise)
B) Defend (+4 points if you are attacked, +0 points otherwise)
C) Dance (+2)
D) Chew Leg (+1)
Another announcement, rung in with a pleasant jingle, follows: "Will Amonee, Nucleo, and Keionx please report to the Winterbeast Station? Thank you!"
A petite NummCorp resident stands before you and gives you a small wave. "Hello! It's fantastic that you three have made it so far. Great work on third place! Unfortunately, we can only have one winner, so you'll need to take part in another challenge!"
She hands you each a flat device. "You'll be escorted to a certain part of the woods with a blindfold - don't worry, kids! Your lusii will be there, and you have this handy device! Please try to make it back to the booth before sunrise. The winner will receive the trophy, and more correspondence from us!" She smiles cheerily, the gerbil ears on her headband bopping up and down. "Good luck!"
You are dropped off in the woods. Fortunately, NummCorp has given you a handy navigational device, which appears to be a chunk of modified military technology. You suppose it's time to test it out... Or freeze.

This tie-breaker will essentially be a game of "hot or cold". I've selected a number between 1 and 25. PM your guess to the mule, and the navigational device will tell you if you are getting closer to your destination! The troll who uses the fewest guesses to arrive at their location (the number I have chosen) will be considered the winner.
