Best Quotes from Episode 3 - Day 1

"My only real strategy is to play the best I can, I really hope I can sike a few people out and get them nervous, or think they can do a bit better then me if I tell them I sucked up the challenge. I really have to tell myself to not get paranoid about going since that is... impossible." - Chad's game strategy

"So I am hoping, that someone in this game will screw up or maybe be a little inactive so it makes my ride to the final round more easy. But yeah, this challenge sounds awesome and I am ready. I am not going to let any guy beat me, and I am motivated to beat them, especially Aaron and Chad." - Rhiannon's expectations of the first stunt

EPISODE 3 - DAY 1 - "Head Under Heels"

STUNT 1 - CLUE

"Strapped at your feet, so you can't see too much.

This upside down motion will make your blood rush.

The question to ask, are your abs very strong?

If the answer is 'NO', then you won't be here long."

STUNT 1 - INFO

Each player would have their legs strapped together at the ankles, and then attached to a bunjee cord. They would then be towed up approximately 150 feet into the air, and locked in place with a chain and key lock. As the clock started, they would not only have to figure out which of the three keys they held, opened the lock, but they would have to do a sit-up in midair in order to try the key. If a player is too scared to begin or is not able to complete the stunt, they would be eliminated. The four players to unlock themselves and plummet down to ground first, would move on.

STUNT 1 - BEHIND THE SCENES

This stunt was designed to give the players a good feel for the game, and would test their abilities to work under the pressures of the clock. Players had the choice of three keys, and for each key, needed to figure out a code by solving clues given to them. Once they found the code, they could try it in the lock by entering it as a password. If it worked, they were done, if it didn't they had to go back and try another key. Solving the clues incorrectly could cost the players much valuable time.

It's a cool, crisp January morning, as the sun slowly rises above the Colorado skyline. The six contestants approach a large structure of beams, which meet one another almost 150 feet in the air. The players approach Steve as he greets them. "Good morning everyone! I know it's a little early for some of you, but it's now time for you to face your first stunt!"

"Each of you will be strapped at the ankles to a bunjee cord, and then chained and locked to that crossbar up there. You will be given a set of three keys, and on my signal, begin trying to unlock yourself from the crossbar. Of course this task is made a little harder by the fact that you will be hanging upside down. Pulling your self up to try out the keys could be quite challenging. Hope your abs are in shape! One of the three keys will open the lock. Once you have used the correct key, the chain will release and you will plummet to the ground. The two slowest competitors will be eliminated from the game, the other four will move on!"

It was randomly decided what order the players would be attempting the stunt in. Steve reminded the players once more, that if they did not complete the stunt, they too would be eliminated. The fastest four players would be moving on.

Sean was the first to go. "So Sean, you're one of the younger players in this game. Any strategy you might be willing to share with us?", Steve inquired. "Just to do well in competition," Sean replied, "Chad and Aaron seem like though competitors." Steve wished Sean good luck, as he was strapped and lifted into the air. The Sun was beginning to peak over the distant mountain ranges. Sean began working immediately, he had a little trouble lifting himself up in mid-air, but eventually got the hang of it. After finding the right key, he quickly popped it into the lock, and plummeted down the other players below. Steve announced his time, "One minute, 14 seconds! Great job Sean!"

Next up was Rhiannon, she skipped over to Steve anxious to begin the stunt. "Wow!", Steve commented, "Looks like you're ready!" "I cannot wait to get going", Rhiannon replied. "Think you're going to do well?", Steve asked. "Heck ya, I think if I do my best, I am unbeatable. I am not going to let any guy beat me, and I am motivated to beat them." "Well, now's our chance to see! Let's get going.", Steve joined the group, as Rhiannon rose to the top of the beam structure. 
Rhiannon had to go through a few keys, before finding the correct one. She pulled herself up and inserted the correct key, immediately free falling. Steve stopped the clock. "Rhiannon, looks like your final time was three minutes, 21 seconds. Hope that'll hold up for you!" Despite the guys grinning as she rejoined them, Rhiannon kept the determined look on her face.

"John, you're up next!", Steve walked with John to the setup area. John gazed up to the top beam, and informed Steve of his decision. "I'm Sorry, I cant do it I give up.", Steve tried to get him to stay, but it was no use. John left the group and departed into the shadows. "I hope my fellow contestants do great, some of them probably do have patience and logic they will get through this task, I figured a few of the clues out but some were just to hard, and I could not figure out the password, I am giving up on this challenge." Steve walked over to the group, "Well, John's decided to quit, so that means only one of you will be leaving the game today. Rhiannon's got the slowest time so far, but there are still three more of you to go." The players smiled, knowing their chances of staying in the game had drastically improved. "Aaron, you're up next, follow me!"

"So Aaron, I've gotta ask you your impression of the other players. Chad's the oldest one of the group, what do you think about him?", Steve asked. "...Chad seems to be a pretty smart person, so he may be my biggest competition. I'll have to see.", Aaron replied. "What strategy did you bring into the game?" As the cord lifted Aaron into the air, he answered, "Never give up on anything, even if I think any given challenge is impossible." Hoping to beat out Rhiannon's time, Aaron made fast work of the keys. He had little trouble lifting himself up, and when the lock finally opened, Aaron's time stood at an impressive one minute, 58 seconds. He and Sean had secured a place in the next round, but two competitors had yet to go.

Camelia was the fifth player to take on the stunt. "So Camelia," Steve asked, "you've been with the other players for quite awhile now, observing the stunt. Which of them do you think is the biggest threat?" Camelia smiled and replied, "I think the toughest one to beat is Chad. He's everywhere to me." As her ankles were being wrapped, Steve asked one more question, "So how do you think you'll do on this stunt?" "I think I'll do my best!", Camelia replied. "Fair enough, good luck Camelia!"

As the clock started, Camelia realized that doing a sit-up while hanging by your legs, was not as easy as the others had made it look. She finally got herself up, as valuable seconds ticked of the clock. After fumbling with the keys, Camelia finally unlocked herself. Unfortunately her final time was seven minutes, 18 seconds. Rhiannon knew that she too was safe, Chad was the final player to go.

"So Chad, have you evaluated you competition yet?" Chad nodded, "I think that Aaron and Sean 
will be sitting with me in the finals. They seem the type." Steve reminded him, "Well Chad, if you beat Camelia's time of 7:18, you'll definitely be moving on. Worried at all?" Chad confidently replied, " I really have to tell myself to not get paranoid about going since that is... impossible." Chad began the stunt, by immediately pulling himself up. He managed to pick the right key first, and in no time was back on the ground with the other players. "Well Chad, your final time was two minutes, 25 seconds. Well done!"

"Camelia, sorry but you were the slowest player to finish the stunt. I have to send you packing. It was great having you though, and thanks for coming out and giving it your best." Camelia left the remaining four players... ?I didn?t read the clue carefully and that was my big mistake so for all of you do your best... so long...?

"Well, Sean, Aaron, Chad, and Rhiannon, looks like I'll be seeing you tomorrow for your second stunt! Enjoy the rest of the day, but eat light. It's best to come hungry for your next mea... I mean stunt."

EPISODE 3 - DAY 1

?Well first off, the only person I see winning this competition is myself.  However, I do think Aaron is very strong and I think he ?could? give me a run for my money. I only say that because I know he is a pretty good host, so I am guessing he is a pretty good player.  Same with Chad, he is probably active and committed like he is to his RPG series. I know and have heard of them, they have absolutely no information about me. I am motivated now to beat them. If I can't win, I definately wanna give my support to Camelia because she is a woman.  I don't fear anyone in this competition. I know what I am capable of and boy, they will be in for a shocker.? ? Rhiannon?s thoughts on her competition in the game

?I read the clue and it sounds pretty damn cool! Yeah, I am totally up for some challenging stunts to do. Heck ya, I think if I do my best, I am unbeatable. So I am hoping, that someone in this game will screw up or maybe be a little inactive so it makes my ride to the final round more easy.  But yeah, this challenge sounds awesome and I am ready. I am not going to let any guy beat me, and I am motivated to beat them, especially Aaron and Chad. Nothing personal?? ? Rhiannon?s expectations of the first stunt

?Well, you definately have to have a strategy to survive in this game, so I am making it simple on myself. I do not communicate. The less they know about me, the better. I know Chad and Aaron through eGames and the forum. I don't post, but I read. I know enough about those two already and I think those two are my main competition. I want them to know as little as possible. Same with Sean, John and Camelia. If I do not e-mail them, talk to them, or post on the message board, they have no clue if I am even active in the game. They might think I am ready to quit, or something in my real life came up so I forgot about this game and the challenges. Haha, yeah right. Therefore, they have this vision that I will finish last and I am not a threat, so they might slack off then. They might not compete as hard because they might think since I am not talking to them or e-mailing them, they are for sure going to beat me. That way, not only do I compete, I compete even harder. And harder! Boy, will they be shocked when the girl they thought didn't even exist, wins the first stunt. Plus, my name is Rhiannon, so I made my e-mail Rhi-tard so they think I am slow or stupid. Let them underestimate me. Little do they all know, I will be their biggest threat.? ? Rhiannon?s game plan
