Re: have you seen the Challenge adverts?

We invented our own games, and they were the best games ever.

There's one game called "Monster", with which you have to have about 10 people or more for this to work. One is a Monster, the other is a Keeper, and the rest are Humans. First the Monster starts running, then the Keeper counts to 10, and runs after the Monster.

The Monster's job is to catch and eat the Humans by placing a hand on their shoulder and make chomping noises. If you are eaten you become a Ghost, and ghosts can still move around, only they have to take sidesteps rather than go forwards.

The Keeper's job is to catch the Monster by placing a hand on their shoulder and shout, "Caught!" Then the Keeper stands still for another 5 seconds, and runs after the Monster again.

The job of Humans is to avoid getting eaten. If you are a Ghost, your job is to sidestep in front of the Keeper to try and stop them from getting to the Monster.

If the Monster is caught three times by the Keeper, then the Keeper and Humans win. If the Monster eats all the Humans, then the Monster and Ghosts win.

And we made that one up all by ourselves  ;D

That actually sounds rather good!
I might take that to Cadets...

No-one else in my primary school watched Km (football practice, I suppose) so I sort of played it on my own - subtly, though, in case people thought I was acting strange.

It was "up to the wall!" in my school, to which I was sent to twice in the seven years I was there.

Well, I was being an advisor.  :)

Well, it was something to do of a lunchtime! I never got into football, so it certainly beat walking around doing nothing.

Okay....Freaky.....When I was in Year 6 my friends and I created a game exactly like Monster.
We called it something else....Probably something waaay off context.
But still, extreamly freaky.

well, im sergeant so salute it my minion..HAHAHAHAHA ;D

*ahem*

ours isnt actually ATC...it's the RAF section of the CCF. our school's Combined Cadet Force. its the combo of Army Cadets and RAF cadets. although our training etc is totally seperate.

we're based at my school, in london, in enfield, on turkey street.

corperal aint really that rubbish in my school. nobody really gets higher than flight sergeant because numbers really don't require it. When i left i was one of three sergeants who co-ran the RAF section.

LOL

Was watching Takeshi last night and what should show up but a Knightmare advert. Some guys in an office one with a bucket on his head and the other three directing him.

Quite funny i thought but at the same time got the feeling that challenge were trying to atract an adult audience in this ad.

What do other people think?
Yes! I've seen this... quite funny as the guy with the yellow bucket kept ploughing in to the wall!

I do have a copy of this lying around... if my memory serves me correct, it followed the advert for Yes Car Credit... with the gorgeous-as-absolute-hell Yes Car Credit girl... whoa, she is so so so so so (so so so) fit!  ;D
