Challenge 1: The Ultimate Journey Book

Slidoo | Wednesday, August 22, 20128:11 AM | 20 Comments so far
"Welcome, welcome aboard," TheSlidoo said proudly. "We must be off on our journey as soon as possible." Everyone was silent as Slidoo started to drive the ship. All the jammers went and chose their bedrooms. They would be spending lots of the next few months here. But two jammers could not find empty bedrooms.

"Everyone back to the main deck, please." The jammers heard the announcement through the old speakers in their dusty bedrooms. They all hurried quickly on to the main deck where Slidoo began to speak. "You may have noticed that there are only ten bedrooms. This is because we can only take ten jammers along with us." Just the thought of two jammers already having to be eliminated so early in the game made everyone nervous. "It will be quite a while before we hit Phantom Island. Quite a while before they detect our ship, and attack. So for the first two weeks, we will go through training exercises, here on the boat."

"Everyone who goes on this journey must have sharp observation skills. On Friday, I will put your observation skills to the test in one ultimate Journey Book challenge."

------------------------------------

Challenge 1:
For the first challenge, we will all meet at xat.com/AJCommunity and on Animal Jam. You will be given a list of 10 objects around Jamaa. You must go around Jamaa to find all the items. When you have found an item, you private chat me (click my name, then "private chat") and tell me exactly where the item is. The first team to find all 10 items wins the challenge. The losing team will then have to vote somebody off of their team.

------------------------------------

Information:
Where: xat.com/AJCommunity and on Animal Jam
Server: I will announce the server at the time of the challenge.
Date: To Be Announced
Time: To Be Announced

Every player must comment telling me if you're coming or not (once I post the date/time).
Remember, if you don't show up, you will get a strike. 3 Strikes and you're out!

Good luck jammers!

The Teams

Slidoo | Tuesday, August 21, 20128:13 AM | 54 Comments so far
It was a quiet day in Jamaa. A day that everybody knew, would change many jammers' lives forever. As TheSlidoo's pirate ship docked on the beaches of Crystal Sands, every jammer who lived in Jamaa stood infront of the ship to see who would be selected to play in Survival Island.

"Welcome... Welcome, Welcome." TheSlidoo began. "As you know, phantoms are expected to take over Jamaa within the years to come. We must act to protect ourselves, and we must act fast."

A young Koala began screaming. "It is alright, my friend," TheSlidoo said calmly. "I guess I should begin."

"As many of you know, we need an army of 12 brave jammers to head across the sea, to Phantom Island. It will be anything but an easy journey, and even calling it difficult, would be an understatement." The audience was so silent that you could have heard a pin dropping. "Now, not every jammer aboard will make it to Phantom Island. Some will need to make sacrifices. Others will catch deadly diseases passed on by the phantoms, or maybe the phantoms will even attack our ship. Nobody knows what is in store for the 12 jammers who will go on this mission."

"Now, we have had many jammers showing interest in this dangerous quest. Because we can only take 12 jammers aboard, I will now draw names out of a hat. The jammers who are chosen will board the ship and set out on our journey immediately."

Schedules: The Way Things Will Work, On A Weekly Basis

Slidoo | 8:04 AM | 9 Comments so far
Some of you might be wondering how things are going to work. Well, here is a weekly schedule:

MONDAY: The weekly challenge is posted.
FRIDAY: The challenge is held at xat.com/ajcommunity, as well as on Animal Jam, at 8:00 Eastern Time.
FRIDAY NIGHT: The results post will be up, announcing which team won, and which team will have to vote a player off.
FRIDAY NIGHT - SUNDAY MORNING: Players of the losing team cast their votes on who they would like to eliminate.
SUNDAY AFTERNOON: Results post goes up, and the person who is eliminated is announced.

Here are some questions some of you may have:

How many teams are there? There are 2 teams: The Tigers, and The Wolves.
How does somebody get eliminated? When a team loses a challenge, every player on that losing team must vote for somebody who is on their team. The person with the most votes gets eliminated.
What happens if 1 team runs out of players? When we're getting to the point where teams are getting too small, it will turn into every jammer for themselves.
Will there be twists? Yes, lots of them! Sometimes there may be a double elimination, or a player could even return to the game. Who knows what could happen?


People have been asking what happens when somebody misses a challenge.
If you miss a challenge, you get a strike. I don't care what the excuse is. A strike is not punishment, it's just ensuring that everyone will be as active as possible.
3 Strikes, and you'll be replaced.

Sign Ups

Slidoo | Sunday, June 17, 20121:41 PM | 57 Comments so far
You don't actually die. Obviously. You just get eliminated.
I'm already starting to choose the teams... I currently only have 2 spots left! Hurry and sign up!

One day, in the world of Jamaa, thousands of jammers read about an exciting gameshow that would bring nothing but fame and fortune to its winner. All wanted to sign up, but there was a catch; losing resulted in immediate death. But that did not stop many jammers from trying to become victorious.

"Survival Island is the newest addition to the Animal Jam online community. 12 Brave jammers will travel on a ship to Phantom Island to battle the phantoms and prevent them from taking over Jamaa. The winner of the challenging gameshow will become forever known as the first ever winner of Survival Island, and a hero to all, but for the other 11 hopefuls, certain death is guaranteed. Who will win season 1 of Survival Island?"


The prize of this game is a permanent adspace spot on Animal Jam Community, my blog that gets over 1500 hits a day, and the traffic is increasing rapidly, as well as bragging rights. If anybody has any other prize ideas, feel free to let me know. I will definitely be trying to get a bigger prize. I just don't have any ideas.

----Sign Up for Survival Island: Season One: The Creaky Ship----
To sign up, comment with the following:
1. What is your Animal Jam username?
2. What gender are you?
3. An interesting fact about you.
4. Why do you want to be in Survival Island?
5. From here on, do you promise to visit the Survival Island website as much as possible and be a dedicated (if selected as a contestant) player in the game?


I'll possibly be adding a cohost soon, as well, but for now it's just me hosting. Here's a bit about the gameshow:

Every week, on Friday or Saturday, we will all meet on a XAT chatbox, and then on Animal Jam. Two teams will go head-to-head, competing in a challenge. One team will win while the others will lose, and the losing team will be forced to vote one of their teammates off of Survival Island. The loser will be eliminated from the gameshow and will have no chance of winning.

The game will be fast paced and full of surprising twists. By signing up, you need to be dedicated and come to all of the challenges. If you can't come to a challenge, you need to have a good reason!

So sign up for Survival Island today!
