Episode 1 - Fruit Stand

[Bandage Man]

All decisions to be made during Fruit Stand will be done so in here.

As with all Main Matches:
Any garnets will be removed immediately after use.
To exchange garnets, simply declare your intention to do so in the current game thread.
Your public total will not be revealed until after the Main Match is completed, meaning that you can keep garnet purchases and exchanges a secret, provided their effects are not made public.

If you wish to purchase a Change item, simply post this image:


And declare your intended change.

If you wish to purchase a Secret item, simply post this image:


When making your bids, and declare which fruit it is for.

Items are only valid if you have the garnets to purchase them.

Your Current Garnet Total:

Round 1:

Watermellons: 5$
Oranges: 5$

[Jinho]

I wanna change from watermellons to apples.

My bid:
Oranges: 5$
Apples: 5$

[Jinho]

If for some reason the change is not valid (see no reason but just in case), my bid will be 2$ for watermellons.

Sorry for not responding to these quickly but it's crazy hectic right now. But all was fine

How did you feel about your performance in Fruit Stand? Did it play out like you expected?

How do you feel about Sangmin and Junghyun being the Death Match candidates?

And the most important question.... Did you have fun?

[Jinho]

Sorry for the late answer, I had a hell of a week. Always thought I'd get to answer before the next match but it wasn't to be.

I expected people would be a lot more cutthroats in that and I was ready to join in on that. When I exchanged watermelons for apples I considered going for 4$ on that second round and earny myself a beautiful 20$. But then I realised that a bit of loyalty could be good for long term plans and it was already obvious that if we stick to not betraying each other, we will at least avoid being last. Hell, even if someone betrayed us on round 3 or 4 we would still avoid being last so there was no need for extra drama.

Of course, I didn't like the fact that I had to spend one of my garnets and I ended up at the end of it with only two while the likes of Ahyoung had 5 without doing anything more than I did. But at least I don't think people saw me as a threat.

They kinda deserved it. Sangmin was the one who came up with the original idea of all of us bidding 1$ for the watermellons so nobody gets screwed. And all that is even better considering he was only selling watermellons so if we went with his briliant plan he would have earned 8$ after 4 rounds while others got 10$ each round.

And after we calmed Sangmin down and made him bid 5$ as we should, it was Junghyun who panicked and sent a bid of 1$ for watermellons. So if you ask me, those two were like Oliver and Hardy and because of them I had to spend one of my garnets and get myself a decent group for my second fruit. Can't say I was devasted for any of them to be facing each other in that deathmatch.

I did even if it wasn't that kind of 100% adrenaline fun you get to have sometimes in ORGs. After the second round it was clear it will be smooth sailing to the end with not too much worry. At times I was wondering if it isn't more fun with one of those fruits that were really screwed up but I'm sure the time will come for me to worry, no need to want it.
