ROUND FIVE ~ BLACK AND WHITE

[insertnamehere]

THREAD-BASED - CLOSED BTSC

In this game, the two players will repeatedly challenge each other with one out of nine numbered tiles. The highest numbered tile wins.

Both players will receive 9 numbered tiles ranging from 0 to 8. The 9 tiles are divided into black and white colors. 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 are black tiles, while 1, 3, 5, and 7 are white tiles. The initial order of play will be randomly decided. Starting from the second round, the player who won the previous round will present their tile first. The starting player will choose a number from 0 to 8, PM me their choice, and publicly post the color of the tile that they are playing. The following player will then undergo the same process. The player who presented the higher number will win the round, and gain a point. The presented tiles are then discarded, and cannot be used again. The numbers of the presented tiles will not be revealed even after the result is announced. In the event of a tie, both players will keep their tiles, and the round will restart. If a tie occurs in the final round, the entire game will restart, and both players will receive nine new tiles.

Using the numbers you previously chose, and the black and white tiles as hints, you can play by inferring what tiles your opponent has left. The first player with the most points after 9 rounds will be the winner, and will advance to the next stage of the competition. The loser will be eliminated.

NUTELLA WINS

Congratulations Nutella, you have gained seven Garnets and will advance to Round 6 of The Genius. Speedchuck, I'm sorry, but you are eliminated from the competition. You are, however, able to serve as a Surrogate in future games for players unable to be present, and you will get the opportunity to aid one of the two Finalists in Round Twelve.

BTSC is now closed for all eight remaining players.

If you wish to send me a confessional/log/whatever for this round, feel free to do so.

Round Six's Main Match, Catch the Burglar, will begin shortly.

Straight-up outplayed.

Enjoy being rich, nutella.
