Hunger Games Simulator - Trouble Cube Edition

[Zanreo]

Yoshiko probably wishes for new games and better spam filters

[PowerStroke6001]

So Bond dodged that nightstick that Miyazaki's wielding, huh. Yes, I had to roll for that random failed fatal event because the host didn't.

Also, Bouffalant... turning into a moose?! XD

[wingedcatgirl]

Don't be bemused, it's just the news!

I'm your host, Prime Queen, and we're back with further updates on Season 4 of the Trouble Cube Hunger Games. Today was quite the bloodbath - not to be confused with the Bloodbath, of course - and as the sun sets, one can imagine the tributes crossing their fingers for a more peaceful night...

Night 4

Insert Reference Here!

Everyone, share your energy! After three episodes of powering up, the beta Wooper launches a spirit bomb, utterly obliterating Michael, Sly, Whitney, Ruffle, and the Trash Can. There goes that secret romance...

First, Gibb. Then, the Tri-State Area!

Burn, burn! Burn it all, ahahahaha!

A midnight tag-team duel! Kama and Reisen challenge Dad and DJ Professor K, but they're in over their head and don't make it out alive.

A fascinating hypothesis, Miyazaki. Could you explain in complete detail for our audience?

What, another one? Who's selling all these literal lemons!?

More like jump on the caac! Another midnight challenge is issued, but this time the challengers judged well, as Ms. Swann and the 4th Wall utterly annihilate Leeloo and the caac.

I still question your sanity, Peko. Having a crush on Bob, of all people...

This reporter can only presume Herb intends to teach Herb-fu in Herb-land.

But he's already so tiny, why'd he need to get even smaller?

Bob finds... rare and...
Excuse me! I was told these gene mods were rare and valuable! Who's handing the things out like candy?!

Another map discovered, another map torn by conflict... will the tributes ever learn better? Sources say no.

Please do not unplug your Bouffalant.

And the sun rises. Another day, another potential handful of kills.

Day 5

Peko, Peko, Peko, spider silk may be a strong material but spider webs are so thin that the result is still delicate and fragile.

(Prime Queen gestures inarticulately for several seconds.) W... what? W

And DJ Professor K takes the seat of godhood recently vacated by Brolander... will he suffer a similar fate?

Maybe... the real Hunger Games... are the friends we made along the way...
Nah. We're here for blood.

It is statistically probable! And even if she wins this game, she's still gonna die eventually.

Ouch! You gotta watch out for that!

Donuts were a mistake. ... No? Still too soon to reuse it?

I must admit, that rock has a remarkable likeness.

Your father, Bob? Don't make me laugh.

Ooh, them's fightin' words, Bouffalant! Hope you know what you're getting into...

What is it with vending machines today? Don't climb inside, Wooper!

Let it snow, let it snow! Me like a cookie in the snow!
Something like that, I imagine.

Dad-fu. Does it involve not doing the dishes?

Stitch is confronted by the terrifying TwilightAngerGregFrizzleTorielKids! A twisted amalgam that strikes fear in his heart, Stitch fights it bravely, but does not survive.

And as the sun sets, a moment of silence for Stitch, and for the other tributes who've fallen these past 24 hours.

Fallen Tributes

Michael: 31st
Sly: 30th
Whitney: 29th
Ruffle: 28th
Trash Can: 27th
Kama: 26th
Reisen: 25th
Leeloo: 24th

I knew my Super Spirit Bomb event would come in handy one day.

[EeveeGirlChey]

Poor George. :(

[PowerStroke6001]

I can't imagine what that tribute amalgam would look like, but with two fire users and an alicorn as some of the components, Stitch didn't get the upper hand despite being designed to be virtually indestructible. RIP.

He's Miyazaki. Don't question him.

Glad I made it to the top 20.

[Whistle]

bloody tom

[wingedcatgirl]

"I'd like to remind my co-host that we're sponsored by the Trouble Cube Image Gallery powered by Coppermine -"

yes thank you prime queen get back in the temporary nonexistence zone while we work

[DaveTheAssassin]

And Bond outlives Madeleine, oof

[PowerStroke6001]

Neither Kim nor the Bouffalant have killed yet, but my money's on the latter.

[wingedcatgirl]

Don't be bemused, it's just the news!

Thank you to Nominator Libre for stepping in last broadcast. I'm your host, Prime Queen, and I'm back to keep you live and informed with the progress of the Trouble Cube Hunger Games! It's the sixth night, so let's jump right into the action.

Full Night: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

Night 6

You Only Live Twice! Bond blasts Peko to smitheroons, but her ghost sticks around to berate and question every part of his decision!

Another failure of photography! We need to get some classes into the tribute training halls.

*sip*
... It's one, isn't it? Well, it's one I saw.

Six tributes take some time out of their busy murdering schedule for some fun in the sun.

... No, I'm not making that joke. You can't make me, Shadow Moth himself can't make me. Gibb kills Bouffalant with the power of his fiery ass, a phrase I hope never to say again.

Miyazaki shows off his Minecraft cred, building a traditional Testificate iron golem.

Whew, good thing that FlexSeal holds! You don't want to know what happens when we've got a damaged fourth wall around here...

Trouble Cube Hunger Games Simulator Patch 1.4.7 notes:

• Increased potency of Cherry's basic attack from 120 to 130.
  
• Increased Cherry's innate damage resistance from 5% to 7%.
  
• Increased Cherry's base HP from 100 to 125.
  

And as those updates install, the sun rises.

Full Day: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

Day 7

After you've scrubbed all the floors in Earthbread, then we can talk about mercy!

I mean, he's got the tragic backstory for it.

So close! Bob nearly kills 2-D by locking him up to starve, but 2-D finds the strength to escape!

How, uh, cute? (Please tell me she wasn't inspired by his ass-flamethrower stunt.)

Avian-assisted amateur dentistry will get you nowhere, you know.

You can have the rest of your life in the ball pit! Cherry uses her recent buffs to gank Dad while he's relaxing.

Haha, yes, that's right! Praise me, Shadow Moth, your new ruler - oh, different shadows? ... I'll see myself out.

... Woop woop.

A quite reliable technique, once you know the trick to it.

And once more, the sun sets, and the cannons sound for our departed tributes.

Peko: 18th

Trident's already at Neptune, Lloyd.

I know that's obtuse reference that never happened, but STILL.

[Cassie]

"...oh. My tributes died. Of course, yeah, sure, totally didn't forgot about them."

[Guma]

Woop indeed.

[PowerStroke6001]

Actually, that's two sips. I backread Day 1 just to confirm that.

Anyway, RIP Bouffalant.

[wingedcatgirl]

PostImage has been acting up today, so their links might be less than functional.

Don't be bemused, it's just the news!

I'm your host, Prime Queen, and the sun has just set on the seventh night - and I'm getting word from the showrunners that the Feast is coming next! Hold on to your seats, viewers, as we dive back into the Trouble Cube Hunger Games!

Full Night: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

Night 7

Hunger Games Babies~🎵

Fascinating! Would you be able to elaborate on this war?

A solemn memorial for Dexter's Dad, attended by the worst people. And a Wooper.

Don't wash a cake! Sheesh!

Bond reveals his secret spy weapons stash, and the fourth wall expresses its interest!

A truly sobering realization for Cherry.

This is why you're banned from giving interviews on my show, Kinji.

And as day breaks, the Feast is heralded... y'know, in the normal way that happens. Whatever way that is. No, I didn't miss it during my coffee break, thank you very much.

The Feast: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

The Feast

"But"? "Anyways"? You're supposed to kill people in this game.

Gibb was playing with fire, and he got burned - literally, as he spontaneously combusts mid-rap battle.

Bob's stumbled upon a second gene mod stash, giving him double the power and making him an indestructible shapeshifter! Someone take him down already!

Several tributes opt to stay away from the Feast entirely...

... while one group makes an uneasy truce to grab supplies safely.

As the sun reaches its zenith, the replenished Cornucopia has been thoroughly looted.

Full Day: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

Day 8

Impossibly, DJ Professor K was actually sponsored by the police!

Gravity's still asleep even today, it seems.

Beta Wooper, either annoyed or intrigued hard to tell with that face by the infamous Vietnamese Crystal bootleg, makes a Cookie Run bootleg modeled after it!

Hm, those vending machines are due for maintenance by now, aren't they...?

Aids his goal that "-inator" contains no fifthglyphs, I would think.

Whoops, while I got caught up trying to Avoid5 that myself, Ami got to Lloyd while I wasn't looking. Nor, it seems was anyone else - when Bob returns with the news, Miyazaki doesn't even know who he's talking about.

And Cherry suddenly recalls a superpower the showrunners failed to confiscate! Better hope they're not watching! (Prime Queen winks at the camera.)

And once more, the sun sets, and the cannons ring out.

15th: The 4th Wall

RIP Lloyd

[PowerStroke6001]

Look at... my... Fifth Glyph Abolish-inator!

[Guma]

Vietnamese Cookie Run? Sounds like fun.

[GoldenCityBird]

I wonder what the 2D vs Gibb rap battle would sound like. Probably really interesting.

This whole round has been interesting so far, and I can't wait to see where it goes next.

[wingedcatgirl]

Don't be bemused, it's just the news!

I'm your host, Prime Queen, and the fourth season of the Trouble Cube Hunger Games will soon be drawing to a close. But fear not, this reporter will be here to show you all the highlights!

Full Night: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

Night 8

007, you've been compromised! Abort mission, 007!

"Look! I'm Cherry! Howdy howdy howdy!"
... Kim's was probably better.

Not so nonthreatening now! Bob somehow stumbled upon a legendary blade, and wastes no time wasting Miyazaki with it. Rumor has it that his last words were "volunteering as tribute was a mistake".
... No? Still too soon to reuse that bit?

Sponsored by the Ford Pinto! Three tributes were cautiously driving through the arena, when a tiny bump from Ami set off a nuclear fireball that incinerated all three of them.

What, you don't have a getting-over-rejection-inator?

Full Day: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

Day 9

... I don't know what you were expecting.

Heartbreaking! Not satisfied with simply rejecting Doof's advances, Herb mercilessly sacrifices the man who professed his feelings.

"I'm in a mermaids' studies class right now! Liveblogging my mermaids' studies class."

What can I say except... don't do that!

Seriously, tributes, you gotta watch out for the pointies...

... Well, he is a spy. That's... literally his job.

Night 9

Herb Cookie reminds us that yes, cookies do grow on trees.

Something beginning with D! Once again, a group of bored tributes resorts to I Spy, but it's not enough, and DJ Professor K drops dead from sheer lack of stimulation.

... Do watch out for that itchy sensation, Bob.

Bond is in tears over DJ Professor K's gruesome death by boredom.

Full Day: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

Day 10

Kim, knowing Bob can't be defeated by a mortal, digs up the same gene mods he's hopped up on, and powers herself up...

(Prime Queen nods, pretending to follow this.) ... Yeah, I don't understand Studio Killers either.

Bonk!

Return of the amalgams! Bond finds himself face to face with the horrifying Wall-EveNemoPark! He too, fights bravely, but fails to overcome the beast.

Night 10

"Come talk to me on SKYPE! ... no, that won't work."

Herb Cookie informs the beta Wooper that it is a confusing beast. The Wooper, of course, only woops.

Drink drink drink drink drink! ... is exactly what Kim didn't do, resulting in her unceremonious death by dehydration.

Full Day: PostImage | Imgur | Trouble Cube

Day 11

WTF hax! While facing the beta Wooper, Cherry lags at a critical moment, leaving her open to Wooper's fatal counterattack!

Herb Cookie, tired of Bob and his shenanigans, attempts to call him out on twitter dot com. It... doesn't go any better than the last callout attempt.

And the beta Wooper has a smoke to celebrate the death of this horrible boy.
