Welcome to the dangerous Warhead Junction. It is here that the Zerg and Terran forces are amassing an army, attempting to use dilapidated weaponry in order to blow up the others. It's best if we just continue on here and not get too involved...

Unfortunately, Terran border security has stopped us. They want to know why we're here, and what we're doing. Come on, it's not like we're doing anything illegal...right? Better get your story straight so Terran border guards don't refuse you entrance through the checkpoint.

For this challenge, we will be playing a variation of Dixit. Here's a quick rundown on how to play:

There are a total of 84 different cards in the game, represented below. Each card has a different illustration on it.

We will shuffle the deck and deal out six cards to each player (a list of six numbers in your confessional).

One player will be chosen to start as the active player. The active player will submit a sentence, word, phrase, song title, movie title, whatever to the mod that corresponds to one of the cards in their hand. Every other player, after hearing the description, will choose one card from their hand to play that they think best matches the description given.

We'll then shuffle all submitted cards and reveal them. In your confessional (or via Skype/Facebook), you will submit which card you think is the active player's card (you can't vote for your own) Then, we'll score the round!

  • If every player correctly guesses the active player's card, then the active player gets 0 points and every other player gets 2 points.
  • If no players correctly guess the active player's card, then the active player gets 0 points and every other player gets 2 points, plus one point for each person who guessed their card instead.
  • If at least one player but not all players guess the active player's card, then the active player gets 3 points and every player who guessed the active player's card also gets 3 points, plus one point for each player who guessed their card instead.


We'll then discard the used cards, and every player draws back up to 6 cards. The next player becomes the active player and gameplay proceeds.

When you're the active player, you want to give a clue that's PRETTY GOOD so at least someone guesses your card, but NOT QUITE GOOD ENOUGH that every player can guess it. First player to reach 30 points wins! However, if the draw deck is depleted before someone reaches 30 points, then the player with the MOST points wins.

If players are tied at the end of the game, we will play additional rounds as needed until the tiebreaker is broken.

Don't discuss this challenge at all with others! Here is the randomized turn order.

1. Ysera
2. Tracer
3. Lor'themar
4. Azmodan
5. Karass

As a note, another person will be playing for Lor'themar in this challenge due to unavailability.

Take time and make sure you understand the rules, because Ysera will be submitting her first descriptor at 8PM! (xx:00) If you need any additional clarification, this short YouTube video does a good job of explaining it in under 3 minutes!

Also we aren't putting in a strict timer here but if you start taking too long we'll give you a warning and will ultimately skip you if you take an excessive amount of time.

ALSO due to time constraints we're lowering the point threshhold to 25 instead of 30
