Oh gods, having a morbid (and just really f'ed up) sense of humor really isn't gonna play in my favor with this event and challenge *sweats nervously*

Xerneas, meet Hades. He likes eating souls, ruling the world, breaking the balance of life and nature, mocking pit at the worst times, the image of his own face, the collective despair of humans and gods alike, smartass and inappropriate remarks and kitten videos.

Hades, meet Xerneas. He likes fairies, art, and has a f'd up sense of humor.

I'm sure you're perfect for each other! You've got five minutes, then, rotate partners.
 
BTW when you send me your dialogues, please just copy the text into the PM. I don't have Word on my computer so I can't open .doc files, and I'd rather not download a bunch of .pdfs.

I'm quite familiar with Hades, we had a bit of a quick fling during the war back in the day. Ugh last time I would ever be romantically involved with a God. I don't quite remember why I left him, maybe it was his new "look"...never did like that on him.

Forthcoming
 
I've just had to have bb explain that hint for the next challenge to me soooooo...

NEW CONTEST WHILE YOU WAIT:
The first person to PM me and bbninjas with the correct franchise of the next challenge will get an advantage in said challenge because you clearly know way too much about gaming franchises.
..
..
..
or you just guessed lucky.

BTW, judging won't be up until Sundayish because our divine guest judge can't do it until then, and she really wants to be the judge herself. Goddess things, please understand! D:
 
Celever and I have recently been experimenting with a dandy portal. We are looking for testers; I'm sure we could arrange something with those we plan on unceremoniously dunking to the bottom of the sea. But... the portal is untested, so who knows what would happen.
 
Finished judging today. Celever has them and he'll post them whenever.

Kinda disappointed with how everyone did (spoiler alert: only one person scored 5 or higher) but I didn't have high expectations either.
 
You Challenge masters may find another forum game interesting - Werewolf. We're desperately looking for sign ups, and I think thus upcoming game will be pretty good to learn it :> Besides... you're gonna have experience...

EDIT: Well, Celever says the game is not going to be easy to get too, but I'm sure you will all be fine~

I apparently haven't been getting alerts for this thread, so it's good to see that I haven't been modkilled yet because nothing has really happened in about a week.
 
Well, I was gone for a while (lost my laptop charger) and nothing fell to pieces like I expected it would! Yay! In fact, not much has actually happened.
 
@Professor Palutena descended from the heavens. 5 of the 9 live contestants gave her and the rest of the Kid Icarus characters a script to use. After they were done Professor Palutena gave one of the contestants a gold star, told the other 4 who did submit that their scripts sucked and smited the 4 who didn't bother to do anything at all.
"Hey, I actually liked all of these!" Celever frowned, before Palutena kicked him out.
"Well, I'm the judge here! My score is what matters, not your's! >:L" she reminded.

Judging (in order of submitted):
steffenka:
Palutena, Pit, Dark Pit, Hades, Viridi, and Thanatos have all gathered to make a small ceremony dedicated to Satoru Iwata.

Palutena: “Thank you all for coming to the ceremony. Now we all agreed to put our differences aside, and share our best memories with Satoru, may he rest in peace. Pittoo would you mind starting?”

Dark Pit gives Palutena such a menacing stare, not even Medusa herself could produce, and stands up from his chair.

Dark Pit: “Thank you Palutena. It was a great loss for all of us when Satoru passed away, thanks Thanatos” he says as he sideeyes toward Thanatos. Thanatos, obviously offended, protests: “EXCUUSE ME?! It wasn’t my fault Viridi decided to play around with one of our creators!” He yells. Viridi breaks in: “What?! That was only because Hades told me to!” Hades replies: “I most certainly did not! If you want to accuse someone perhaps it should be your pathetic excuse of an ally, he hates humans just as much as you do, and he hates violence too so it would be a perfect opportunity to get rid of him!” Chaos soon unveils as everyone starts yelling at each other.

At last Palutena slams her shield into the table, scaring the sheezus out of everyone: “ENOUGH! I’ve had it with all of your accusations! Everyone sit down and shut your mouths or else I will personally call Samus and give her permission to blast all of you back where you came from! Now Pittoo continue on your story.”

As Dark Pit continued his story, literally offending everyone in the process, Pit started to get bored and began kicking to Thanatos, who sat across the table. Thanatos abruptly interrupts Dark Pit to deal with Pit. “You’re worse than the entirety of the Mushroom Kingdom and half of the contestants on RuPaul’s Drag Race!” he yells. Hades continues: “I completely agree with you Thanatos. Perhaps we should get rid of him somehow?” Palutena quickly grabs Pit and disappears within a bright light.

As the two fly away, Palutena quietly says to herself: “Note to self: Never have Pit, Pittoo, Viridi, Hades and Thanatos in the same room again.”

Pit turns his head, “Did you say somethihmmff” never completing the sentence before a goose smashed directly into his head, causing him to plummet towards the ground.

Palutena starts crying of laughter, just as the same goose smashes into her, causing her to lose her balance in the air as well. Suddenly it attacked again and she realized that it wasn’t a goose, but a chicken, and more were coming towards her.

Hiding behind a cloud Satoru Iwata chuckled, as he threw another angry chicken towards a confused Palutena.
Steff's dialogue isn't good because there isn't much in the way of a dialogue, so his characters aren't portrayed well. 3/10

Note from Celever: I think that Pit was portrayed very well, and Virid and Dark Pit at least decently. However, Viridi and Hades only said one thing, Viridi saying only a passing comment, so you couldn't see how they acted well at all. Hades was sarky as I would normally like, and Palutena was all off.

Importantly, though, is the fact that this is like a segment from a book. It's well written, but the challenge was to write a dialogue, so he didn't really fulfil the challenge requirements.
scattered mind:
I wasn't sure if that character was the best one to start a deep conversation with. Especially such a dark subject.
However, his name starts with "dark" so I figured he would be the right one to go to next.
"Sorry, are you Dark Pit?" I asked.
He turned to me "Who's asking?"
"My name is Scattered mind. I have come here to bring you some news." I said.
"Well, your mind is scattered. You've got me confused with the other guy. I am not Pit. If you are looking for him you should go and find Palutena. After all, he is her puppet." Dark Pit said with a mean grin on his face.
"I wasn't looking for Pit!" I said with anger. "I was looking for you.. Pittoo".
"Is that so" he said with a look of surprise to the sound of the name Palutena had given him."I didn't know Palutena has another puppet."
"I'm not her puppet. Just listen to me, I have come to tell you that Satoru Iwata had passed away!" I snapped.
"Who's that?" he asked.
"Not you too! No one in this world knows about him? he was the executive producer of this game.. the one with the Ask Iwata show.. the guy who delivered all the exciting news over Nintendo Direct.." I said.
"Don't make me laugh. This is not a game. What do you think this is, Brain Age?" he asked.
"Never mind. I tried to tell Hades and Viridi and they were all the same. Viridi laughed at me and Hades just said something about 'if his soul is not in here, then he makes no interest for me'.. Oh well" I shrugged. "I guess I'll just go".
"Do what you want. I refuse to think that I'm just a puppet of some game. Executive producer.. I'm not controlled by anyone. These wings takes me wherever I want to go. It's a shame you don't have any wings on you." he grinned.
"I don't need wings! go to the underworld!" I shouted.
"Looks like I touched a nerve" he said.
"This isn't over yet!" I said and turned away with anger.
"Don't be ridiculous" he laughed. "You have no powers".
I smiled at him from a distance. "I have one power".
I clicked on the power button on my 3DS and went back to my room in the island of Pokébeach.
"The game characters in these days.." I mumbled. "They just have no respect".
scattered mind isn't a kid Icarus character, so he didn't do the challenge right. there aren't any interactions between the KI characters which was the total point. 0/10

Note from Celever: I actually thought that this script was quite funny and creative. It was written like a very speech-heavy passage from a book as opposed to dialogue unfortunately, and only Dark Pit actually spoke out of the 5 characters you had to include, so technically the submission is invalid, and would have scored 0/10 from me too. It was quite funny though, and switching the 3DS off (or at least pretending to) should have totally been used in the actual game for maximum 4th wall breaking! :p
Mora:
Scene: Satoru Iwata's funeral.

Palutena: I wish Mora wasn't so busy. Maybe then, we'd have better lines.
Hades: I know right! This funeral is pretty lame. I could have done much better.
Viridi: Father...
Pitt: I am obligated to say something in the script for this submission to count.
Dark Pitt: Shut up. This is a funeral; you're being disrespectful!

And they all lived happily ever after. The end.
mora's sucks because he intended for it to suck 0/10

Note from Celever: Viridi isn't Hades' daughter... Not sure what you meant. I found Palutena's, Hades' and Pit's lines amusing, though. Also, Pit and Dark Pit only have one 't'.
PhantomHaze:
Palutena: Attention please, I hate to be the one to bring bad news but I was unable to protect Sataru Iwata, one of the great Nintendo presidents.

Viridi: that just means one less human to eradicate to me, but in all honestly, he will be missed.

Pit: What does ‘eradicate’ mean?

Viridi: It means to destroy you imbecile.

Pit: What does ‘imbe-

Palutena: Shut it you two, this is a serious matter.

Hades: Sataru may have a tasty soul but for his deeds I have elected to refrain on using him as a snack, he will be reborn. And for you Pitty, you need a dictionary as soon as possible, seriously, its embarrassing. *Tosses Pit a dictionary*

Dark Pit: Thank you Hades, if you hadn’t chosen that option I would have forced you to anyway considering your lack luster of what you call an army.

Hades: You wouldn’t be able to bet me in battle you fool. I am a god.

Dark Pit: You would be surprised…

Palutena: Enough bickering, I believe we should have an armistice for the following month to honor the late Sataru. He was a great man that helped Nintendo grow as a beloved company, we should respect him in someway.

Pit:*Looking through dictionary* I found what ‘ armistice means!

Dark Pit: Pit, no one cares.

Viridi: I agree Palutena, as much as I dislike the human race I could do something nice for him by bringing dazzling up nature a bit.

Pit: I think that would be wonderful Viridi, I regret not being able to save him…

Palutena: As upsetting as this news is, I think he would want us to celebrate his life and not mourn his loss, he did many great things for the Nintendo community. Pit, without him you may not have some of your favorite Nintendo games, same goes for you Pittoo.

-In memory of Satoru Iwata
phantom has decent interactions but his characters are portrayed totally wrong. 4/10

Note from Celever: Definitely one of the best submissions. It was one of 3 submissions which was actually a dialogue, but it was very funny. However, there were a few typos, and Viridi was portrayed totally wrong. Pit seemed as dopey and happy as ever, though. You did a decent job portraying the others, though nothing too special. The interactions were good, though.
King Xerneas:
Character Key:
Palutena – PP
Viridi – V
Hades – H
Pit – P
Dark Pit – DP

*At an unknown location Palutena, Viridi, Hades, Pit, and Dark Pit discuss serious business*

V: So then I had Cragalanche cause some earthquakes to scare the humans, but apparently part of Japan was torn up by it. Seeing them freak out over their buildings toppling over was pretty funny. I do have to say they’re pretty lazy for not fixing up their homes right away, like sheesh if I can instantly take over large areas with a reset bomb, it shouldn’t take them so long to rebuild their ugly human landscapes.

DP: Uuh, Viridi you do know you killed quite a bit of people, I mean not like it matters…

H: I do have to thank you for that, their souls were absolutely delightful and delicious.

V: Ugh Hades how can you even think about eating human souls, do you even know where they’ve been? They’re probably not even organic or GMO-free, here have some of these carrots, I grew them in my garden. They should help that “lovely” complexion of yours.

H: AAAUUUGGHHHH! Get those horrid things away from my delicate palette. How could you even think of feeding me that filth that’s been residing in dirt and grime for who knows how long!

DP: Hades you do know you’re the Underworld leader, right? You guys basically live under the dirt.

H: EXACTLY! Have you seen the filth that resides down here *points at Medusa* *shudders*

Medusa: HEY WATCH IT CORPSE-BREATH!

H: I rest my case…

PP: Can we please settle down, we still need to wait for Pit to come back from that Boss Battle Royale. He should be losing to the Chaos Kin any second now, so let’s just all behave like the Divine beings we are.

P: Ugh stupid Chaos Kin. That over grown cockroach always seems to get the best of me. AND I WAS SO CLOSE TO BEATING IT THIS TIME!

DP: Oh boohoo Chicken Wings get over it.

P: WHAT DID YOU CALL ME!

PP: Pittoo was that really necessary?

DP: Could you stop calling me that?! And yes it was necessary…

PP: Anyways, I’ve gathered you all here for some devastating news from the human realm.

V: THEY’RE OUT OF KALE AREN’T THEY!

PP: No Viridi it’s not that it’s –

V: OH NO THEY’RE GONNA TAKE AWAY THE VEGAN OPTIONS FROM CRAFTS SERVICE TABLE AGAIN AREN’T THEY! I CAN’T SURVIVE OFF OF CHEESY POTATOES ANYMORE!!!!

PP: *augggggghhhhhhhrrrrrrrrrr* WOULD YOU SHUT IT YOU NATURE OBSESSED BRAT!

*Everyone stares at the angered Palutena*

PP: Sorry there, I just lost my composure that’s all. Anyways, no it’s not that. I’ve got news that Satoru Iwata has just died recently.

*Everyone but Viridi gasps*

V: Yah and?

P: Viridi you do know who Iwata is right?

V: Some human I would guess. Why should I care if he died or not, he’s just some pest of a human anyways.

DP: You’ve really got to be kidding right now Vi.

V: What?

H: Oh you sweet, ignorant child. Let me grace you with some knowledge passed down from some of the greatest Underworld scholars, presented by the greatest of them all, ME! It all started when a young boy named Satoru Iwata had a dream…

*Cue hour-long presentation of the history of all things Iwata and Kid Icarus*

H: And now hopefully this drives Sakurai to making another game for us to be in, maybe one where I can contemplate the universe while staring at some bananas.

V: Oooooooooohhhhhh that guy.

H: Yes dear, he’s “that guy”. Not that our dear flower child has been educated, I’ll return the floor to you Miss Palutena.

PP: Okay then, thank you Hades. Never thought I’d say that. Now that we have established who Iwata is, we can move on to planning something to honor him. Especially after all he’s done for us.

V: I stand by what I said before. Why should I care for some worthless human, even if he is partially responsible for our own creation?

P: VIRIDI YOU CANT JUST SAY THAT ABOUT SOMEONE LIKE IWATA!

H: How about I handle his transition to the world of not-so-living? I can easily get Amazon Pandora to use her newfound “assests” to assist his spirit to move on from their puny world. I feel he would be more than happy to have Ms. Fan-service aid him in crossing over.

DP: I wouldn’t mind having Pandora as an escort either hehehe

PP: You guys are really disgusting you know?

P: Wait, what does he mean by “escort”?

V: *laughing very violently* PIT YOU’RE SUCH A KID! I’M DYING!

H: Could you please?

V: Excuse me? At least I wasn’t demolished by some kid with glued on wings.

P: Hey this wings are definetly not glued on! Right, Lady Palutena?

PP: Yes he’s correct. That aside, I don’t know how I feel about Pandora using her “assets” to guide one of the most important people in our own existence to our divine home.

H: Palutena it’s either in through her hole or out through mine HAHA!

PP: Hades you really didn’t say that out loud did you, please tell me you didn’t.

P: Holes? Wait does he mean –

DP: Yes birdbrain. He means that…
xerneas' dialogue is actually really good but he has a handful of issues with portraying the characters right. not enough to be a major issue though. 7/10

Note from Celever: Yeah, there's not a lot to say here. This was the funniest submission, portrayed the characters the best, had the best interactions, and was of high standard anyway. Very well done! n~n

Final Thoughts from Celever:
PhantomHaze was on holiday for the whole challenge besides the last 24 hours, and he not only got a submission done, but one to a decently high standard. The rest of you don't have any excuses (except maybe KoN since he was on holiday for the whole time I believe, though he still could have thrown a little thing together like Mora did). Come on guys, put some effort in.

Actually, on second thought, GM Drac sorta had an excuse given that English isn't his first language. Still should have thrown something together, though, because he would be safe right now if he did...

The four members who didn't submit, Brave Vesperia, GM DracLord, Keeper of Night and Luispipe8, are all up for elimination. Votes must be submitted by Wednesday the 29th of July at 11:59 PM BST. Brave Vesperia and Luispipe8 have been issued activity warnings, if they fail to send in an elimination vote they will be modkilled.

King Xerneas has received an advantage for winning this challenge, and lemme tell ya, it's a good one!
The advantage will be revealed in Challenge 12, which is one of my favourites yet. Send in your elimination votes faster to get Challenge 12 posted faster!

Keeper of Night also got an advantage in Challenge 10 for winning. He has a vote weight of 2 in this elimination.
