The Story

One day, the NWR Funhouse residents were arguing over which of them was the greatest poaster... like pretty much every other day in the Funhouse. Actually, scratch that. Everyone already knew the best poster is Donkenada Kong. They were really fighting about who was the 2nd best poster. "There's only one way to prove who's the second best," said some random poster with a DK avatar, "And that is by conquering DK Island, the ultimate test of gaming ability." The posters agreed, each one confident in their ability to scale the heights of DK Island through increasingly difficult levels so that they could succeed over the others. Thus, they arrived at DK Island and set out on their quest to get their Kong on and become the top banana.

Word Selection

For this game, there is no set word selection for the whole game to whittle down. Instead every round will have a fresh set of choices. I thought I'd try this method again to really squeeze as much DK flavor into the game as possible.





Order Selection

Donkosaurus Kong (Steefosaurus)
oohhboy
Donkario Kong (Lucario)
Donk it up Kong (Mop it up)
NWR_Insanolord
ShyGuy
Donkos Kong (Stratos)
Donk-Nick Kong (nickmitch)

This is the player rotation the game will follow until there is only player still standing. Therefore, we will begin round 1 with nickmitch selecting the first bomb word and Steefosaurus taking the first guess at a safe word and carry on through the list from there on.

How the Player Rotation was Selected

For this game, I assigned a number of 1 - 8 based on the order players signed up in the Sign-Up thread. So, Insanolord was 1, Stratos was 2, etc. Then I took 8 cards from a deck of cards of Ace to 8. I shuffled them up and then laid out their order and then I slotted in the players based on their matching number to the order of the cards. This time around it was by a random draw. Fascinating.





Finishing Order

8 - Donkos Kong (Stratos)
7 - Donk it up Kong (Mop it up)
6 - NWR_insanolord
5 - oohhboy
4 - Donkosaurus Kong (Steefosaurus)
3 - Donk-Nick Kong (nickmitch)
2 - Donakrio Kong (Lucario)
1 - ShyGuy

This brings us to Round 1 - Kongo Jungle!


The list of words you will be selecting from this round are as follows:

Donkey Kong
Diddy Kong
Dixie Kong
Kiddy Kong
Tiny Kong
Lanky Kong
Chunky Kong
Cranky Kong

That's a lot of Kongs and they've all been playable in a Donkey Kong Country game. Donk-Nick Kong will be choosing one of these Kongs as the bomb word for the first round. We now await his selection in order to proceed.

[Wah]

ehhhhh i like how my avatar became everyones funny memes

[ShyGuy]

Donka Donka Donka Donka

[nickmitch]

The pick is in, you kongs! Get hyped.

[Khushrenada]

I have been informed of what the bomb word is so Round 1 is now underway. Look at DK go!



Donkosaurus Kong is the first one up to select a safe word. He can choose from the following list:

Donkey Kong
Diddy Kong
Dixie Kong
Kiddy Kong
Tiny Kong
Lanky Kong
Chunky Kong
Cranky Kong

What will he choose?

[ShyGuy]

I always miss these pinned threads, because I usually ignore all pinned threads because they are old.

[Khushrenada]

Not the Funhouse, baby! We do things right here!

[ShyGuy]

Well is the game started or what? Coward Kongs!

[nickmitch]

Yeah, where is everykong?

[pokepal148]

Stop Monkeying around people.

[pokepal148]

This doesn't feel like it's on like Donkey Kong.

[pokepal148]

This is making me Gorilla Angry.

[Order.RSS]

All right all right, well since I've been so slow to pick up on this there's really just one possible option: CRANKY KONG!!!!

[Khushrenada]

Well, look who finally showed up. And who just also happens to be safe with a correct choice. Looks like we're going to be stuck with Donkosaurus Kong delaying the game some more further in the future. Take it to the fridge, Cranky.

Next up is oohhboy. He has the remaining selection to choose from:


Donkey Kong
Diddy Kong
Dixie Kong
Kiddy Kong
Tiny Kong
Lanky Kong
Chunky Kong

[Mop it up]

Only 8 players? Bummer.

[pokepal148]

At least it means the game will go quickly.

Oh wait.

[Phil]

Are all of you the same account? 

[Mop it up]

If you didn't sign up then you can't post in here!

[oohhboy]

There is only one true apes! Gorillas!



Chunky Kong

[Phil]

If you didn't sign up then you can't post in here!

This is middle school all over again. ;_;

[Khushrenada]

Don't worry about Phil. Donkepal148 Kong didn't sign-up but he still posts in here anyways because his own threads have abandoned him.

As for oohhboy, that non-Kong is safe! (Even if he is trying to reject the greatness of Kong - Donkey style.)

That means Donkario Kong (Lucario) is up next. He has the following options to choose from:

Donkey Kong
Diddy Kong
Dixie Kong
Kiddy Kong
Tiny Kong
Lanky Kong

Last game, Lucario was the first one out. Will he be able to avoid that same scenario this game? We'll soon find out!

[ShyGuy]

Pop Pop! It's hunting season!

[Wah]

Well i have to go with my man LANKY KONG
