STEEM-APOCALYPSE SURVIVAL GAME - Day 4 Round 2 - 315 STEEM Prize Pool and Growing!!!
Another round of survival, and some more who did not survive...
In our last round, the teams came upon a man who called himself “Tom” in the back of an abandoned store. He claimed to be suffering from high blood pressure and offers a deal. If the teams can help him with his issue, perhaps he has some food and antibiotics that he can trade.
The teams are not sure if this is the same Tom who just shot some of the other team members, or if he can be trusted. However, they needed to make a decision. Here are the four options and the teams who chose them
DAY 4 ROUND 1 RESULTS
Option 1 – Decline the offer and attempt to leave.
No one chose this option, so I won’t reveal what would have happened.
Option 2 – Try to trick Tom into a simultaneous trade with the pill bottle of pebbles.
No one chose this option, so I won’t reveal what would have happened.
Option 3 – Offer to show Tom a plant that could help with his condition and take him to the patch of Basil outside.
Multiple teams chose this option. Though it wasn’t what was Tom was expecting, it made sense to him. “Well thanks for showing me the solution to my problem which was right under my nose this whole time. I’m sorry that I was a little deceitful and lied about my name and the antibiotics. I do have some food, and I’ll give your team two cans for helping me, but I can’t help with those infections, good luck!”
“Also, my name ain’t really Tom, but there is a known marksman out in the woods by that name, so people seem to treat me better when I use that name. I’ll keep an eye on this Basil, but the time has come for you to clear out!” The man finishes and points out of town with his large knife.
These teams take off, but they now have a back-up, nonperishable food supply. For one person teams, the supply is four days worth, and for two person teams it is two days worth. As an example, if a team needs to eat before the end of Day 4 (gameplay), they will have a chance to eat in Round 2. If they choose a correct answer and eat a perishable food, then they will keep their reserve supply. If they pass on Round 2 or choose an incorrect answer, then they will tap into their backup supply. The backup food supply will be automatic.
Here are the teams that chose this option.

Option 4 – Try to attack Tom and take his bag.
Trying to attack an armed man is often not a good idea, and in this case, it proved to be fatal.
Unfortunately, some team members made this deadly decision. More “participant” ribbons will be given and more STEEM for the loved ones of the deceased. 10 STEEM will be sent to their accounts.
@eirik
- @eirik has been stabbed to death while trying to attack “Tom.”
@snooway
- @snooway has been stabbed to death while trying to attack “Tom.”
Honestly, I was sad to see you two go. It has been a pleasure on my end @snooway and @eirik and I seriously hoped that you both had a good time. I tried to keep it fun and interesting, and it was great to see you two interacting and making your choices. If you are interested, I'll let you know when the next season starts. Thanks for helping to make this one a success!
HOW ABOUT THOSE INFECTIONS?
DAY 4 ROUND 2
The six remaining teams quickly take off into the woods. At least the clearing had not been a complete bust. Thankfully to have a nonperishable backup food supply, the teams begin to look for something else to eat. That backup food supply can be precious, and it would be a tragedy to tap into it right away.
Also, these infections are getting worse. Some sort of bacteria has set up shop in the open wounds of our team members and things are not getting any better. Aren’t there any wild options for anti-bacterial plants that could be dual purpose? Perhaps the teams could get a snack and treat their ailment at the same time…
In a clearing ahead, there appears to be a bee hive. Could this hive still contain honey? Nearby, a few other plants are growing. One is an interesting looking plant with triangular purple flowers. Another looks very familiar, as if the teams have seen it earlier. Near the edge of the woods, something that looks like Wild Garlic is growing. All of these options seem viable, but should the teams even slow down right now with the Tom the marksman out in the woods on the other side of town and “Tom” with the big knife right behind? One way or another the infections will have to be dealt with…
OPTIONS
Option 1 – Check the beehive and eat any honey that is found inside.
Option 2 – Eat the plant with the triangular purple flowers.
Option 3 – Eat the familiar looking plant.
Option 4 – Eat the plant that looks like Wild Garlic.
Option 5 – Skip a potential meal and deal with the infection later, just get moving instead.

Thanks for the fun @papa-pepper. I thought Tom was injured because he was sitting down I took a chance. Would love to team up with @nextgen622 again for season 2
I'd love to have you two back next time! Thanks for all your effort this season.
I was like 90% sure that I will going to die with that option, but I just had to try!
Thanks for the game @papa-pepper, totally will check out the next season!
Thank you @erikaflynn for amazing team-mate.
And good luck to to still alive participants!
Thanks @eirik! It was fun having you play along! Great job anyway, even if you died!
we have built a very smokey fire on the end of a tree branch and have succeeded in convincing the bees we are good guys, they have allowed us to get enough 'manuka' honey for food and dressing purposes, and didn't sting us at all.
We have a sweet tooth and prefer honey to garlic, besides we have to talk to each other, no toothbrush is bad enough, add garlic and we would kill each other without the challenges. Must find a bath soon and the clothes could do with changing.
Good idea! Your wisdom is incredible!

It just shows that a little kindness goes a long way - especially when the other person has a large knife!
Sorry to see more teams lost on this journey. They will be missed.
But given the state of my wounds and the suffering they are putting me through, maybe they are the lucky ones. a quick death over a long, drawn out, painful one.
I'd really like to get some treatment for these cuts and the damn snakebite which is itching like hell!!
Also I can see my dad is not faring too well either. His fingers are swollen and he's very grumpy - so at least nothing much has changed for him yet ;-)
Hey I resemble that remark, but at least my fingers are normal size.
LOL - Nice one Dad!
LOL!
My mother is a beekeeper so i feel pretty confident about the antibiotic nature of honey....that being said, I'm not prepared to go digging through a beehive.
I will pick option 4 and grab some of the garlic!
Option 4 for Team ZOOKEEPER.
I think we should choose option 1or 5.. @rahul.stan ?
I think opion 2 will be better. @iamsgr
Alright.. Let's Hope for the best.. The Hurricane chooses option 2 @papa-pepper
Option 2 it is.
Option 1 for me.
Option 1 it is.
That honey pot looks like a trap out in the open and will give crazy Tom some nice target practice!
Foo(d) Fighters are going to go with option #2 and put our faith in the plant with the triangular purple flowers. The hunger pains haven't yet returned and we need to take care of a few little health issues!

Option 2 it is.
option 5
