​

So, ever heard of that Channel 4 game show Countdown?​

No?​

Maybe you reconize this theme?​

​

Still No?​

Okay, I'll explain it to ya.​

​

In each round, the contestants will need to each pick a letter until there's 9. There needs to be atleast 3 vowels and 4 consonants (Don't know what vowels and consonants are, look it up). Once that's been taken care of, the 30 second countdown music begins (replay the video from above). During that very 30 seconds, each contestant must think of a word using only those 9 letters. For example, if the letters are UKTIYTAOB, you may be thinking of KITTY. When the countdown ends, each contestant must reveal their answers. The contestant who's thought of the most longest word wins. The game then lasts for a few more rounds, until finally we have a winner.​

​

As you may as worked out, for a SpongeBob version of Countdown, it will follow exactly what the game does but instead of any word, you must think of a word that is related to SpongeBob. That could be a name of a character, place, staff, episode, (I'm even allowering names of SBM users). Basically, anything at all that is related to SpongeBob.​

​

Rules (Oh great, here comes the nagging part)​

​

Spoiler

1. Like I said, you must only use words that are related to SpongeBob. If you use a word that you think is related to SpongeBob, but the host (me) dosen't think it's SpongeBob-related, please send him (me) a PC explaning why your word is correct. Using non-SpongeBob related words, will not make it count.​

2. Do not reveal your answer before the countdown is over. Doing so will not count your word, even if it's the longest. Doing so again a couple more times may ban you from any more future games (If the game is successful).​

3. Guests and Viewers cannot talk when the game begins. Only the host and the contestants can. If a viewer or guest is talking, they will be warned. doing so more times will force us to ask you to leave.​

​

​

​

I'm currently planning a time on Sunday 25th August 12pm EST. (May change).​

​

The winner will recieve 1000 doubloons.​

​

And finally, before I go...​

I clicked on this topic and when I saw your avatar, I thought for a second that I had made it!

 

[PatStar2000]

Signed up!

 

[Spongeo]

I'll do it, it is kinda like Boggle in a way.

 

[Sunshine Banjo Face]

I'll play but might accidentally break rules at first but I'll learn.

 

[NastyPatty2002]

Can I watch? Because even if I know how to play, I will not know how to play this.

? :umm:

And how many contestants can there be? I don't like it when I'm like, 1 of 3 contestants, then I feel pressure :P

The more the merrier. But whatever, sign me up!

It's always nice to try new things out and then learn from them. Sometimes they make it, sometimes they won't.

 

[hfjs]

Ah, sorry for sounding angry.

1. Did you Like/Dislike that game of SpongeBob Countdown and why?
I disliked it because there were lots of people interrupting the process.

3. If you could change/improve SpongeBob Countdown in any way, what would you do?
Don't make it SPongeBob themed.

4. If there was another SpongeBob Countdown event, would you take part again?
Right now, I'm stuck between never playing it again or giving it one more chance.

5. Do you want to see SpongeBob Countdown have future games?
Why not?

6. Would you recommened it to your friends?
Honestly not.

1. Did you Like/Dislike that game of SpongeBob Countdown and why? I liked it because it was a nice surprise for a comeback to this forum. I missed it.​

2. (Optional) What was your favourite moment? I loved the tense countdown moments that would happen and i'd panic a little but it was still fun.​

3. If you could change/improve SpongeBob Countdown in any way, what would you do? i know it's not in the official rules but i'd lengthen the time period.​

Also the above. I want a general word guessing. It's easier. IF you look at the chat you'll see that's the only reason Halibut lost to ooofy. (congrats btw)​

4. If there was another SpongeBob Countdown event, would you take part again? Most likely! :thumbsup:​

5. Do you want to see SpongeBob Countdown have future games? Yup!​

6. Would you recommened it to your friends? I don't really know but it was really fun!​

​

I hated the interruptions though. :(
