RED
Move forth calmly and collectedly. Survey the area. Spy my adversaries! Make sure not to fall down on the very first turn. Sit down on a part of the grid between intersections, wrap my legs around the bar if possible.
Name: Gilbert Garplacks

Though his entire head is hairless, he has a mustache tattooed on his left index finger, which he raises to his lips on many occasions, giggling softly before lowering his finger again.
Reason for signing up: his mother thought it'd grow some hair on his chest at last.

Since this is kind of important, who is opposite to me, on which beam are we on and am I on an intersection?
You could say we're in (3 | 5) if we're in the third intersection from the left, fifth from the bottom and (3.5 | 5) if we're somewhere between intersection 3 and 4.
I could maybe draw a small map later.
EDIT: Start walking forward slowly, shield raised, banging the shackle on the shield for intimidation. Focus on getting ready to counterattack whoever is in front of me by shoving them off the beam with the shield.
Name: Destio Dravani
Description: 19 year old teenage boy. Average height. Spiky black hair. Brown eyes. His body is bruised and scarred in places.

Take up steady position, launch projectile saliva at BLU team. Like a true gentleman spitter, aim for the face.
Name: Magarth Tuchivimov
Description: An elite soldier from the Neo-Capitalist-Communist-Fascist-Libertarian-Republic-Kingdom of the Soviet Union, who killed 289 terrorists and filthy dissidents during his military service.

Eat a painkiller. I think that's all that's keeping me going at this point.
Hide behind the new guy with the shield.

Gonna stick with this action.

And jump if I should jump.

Inch forward a bit and get a good defensive position. See if my robot hand can lock a grip on a bar.

Gilbert sits down on the beam and wraps his legs around it, crossing his arms and looking very sure of himself. Navarro and Destio both advance as one unit behind Destio's shield, with Destio in front and Navarro in back. Larry inches himself forward to stand at the intersection between two beams and DP doesn't do much of anything. Bubba makes a mad charge forward, hollering incoherently and almost immediately trips. He goes flying forward and slams chest first into a beam as he falls, his arms automatically wrapping around it.
Mason's suit distorts, arms and legs swelling with an odd, angular musculature and takes off across the beams, leaping from one beam to the next. He crosses the arena in 6 leaping steps, landing on the edge of the sixth beam with both feet, a few behind Magarth. Magarth, who was halfway to the next intersection, turns to face him, and sees the attack coming. Mason leaps off the beam, spinning as he swings the electrified sword straight at Magarth's midsection. Magarth can't dodge it, at least not completely, and sure as hell can't block it, so he does the best thing he can: He throws himself backwards. The Katana cleaves a deep gash through Magarth's side, but doesn't strike a fatal blow; instead Magarth simply drops into the water below, trailing blood and a litany of curses. Mason catches the next beam with one hand, jerks to a halt in mid air and yanks himself up as the suit leaks steam and the muscles deflate, two charges used up.
Given the *last* time, I have no doubt that that hat is currently the most dangerous thing in the room.
BRING OUT THE LAWN DARTS!
Bet 3 tokens on BLUE!
"Fine moves, mortals! I approve!"
Slide nonchalantly into the water as per the agreement. If I'm going to die today, it better be in the grand finale!

"Right, that's over. Into the water with you."
Let Gilbert go into the water of his own accord. If he tries anything, force him into the water with an offensive charge.
ATTENTION AUDIENCE! STOP YOUR RECREATIONAL MURDER! WE HAVE A DECISION TO MAKE! Glibert has just thrown himself off the boat, leading to a Blue win! However, we still need to chose a loser to be punished. Cromwell and Navarro were the first to hit the water, but Flimsy did all of jack squat the whole time! And Gilbert just gave up! Who should be punished?

Verify winnings from this, the returns are just confused right now (I think it's either a return of 2 or 1.5)
Also, for those of us you have vaguely volunteered for bookie duty, do you just sort of want us to start up shop at the beginning of an episode, PW?
I dunno the winnings, thats a Paris thing.
As per bookie-ing, that would basically start at the beginning of either an episode or a part of an episode. I fyou wanted to start once this challenged ended, we could do that.
