I'd just like to add, kicking/kneeing and punting are big no-nos, if you trip at any time, you're done for.

Ok ok. I just think people don't realize how hard it is to "knock someone out" especially a little 5 yr old. There like made of rubber.

If you can kick 'em in the abdomen they'll be sucking wind long enough for you to come along in a minute and step on their necks.

Exactly. As long as you take a bunch of them out of the game early, you can go along on neck-snapping clean-up duty later on.

No way. 5-year-olds don't often get hit by someone whose life (or simulated life) depends on the little kids getting seriously hurt. One shot to most of these kids will put them on the ground, and even if they get up they'll be crying and incapacitated.

I really don't think you want to get to a position when you are on one foot. If one of those bastards can get you to trip, there gonna swarm on you.

Oh yeah...welcome, did you get traded for TSC?

I killed eight 6-year-olds in a room no larger than a Burger King bathroom, so I'm guessing I could take 3 score 5-year-olds.

How did you avoid slipping all over the place? How did you keep them in the room? Licked door or something?

I'm interested in what you have to say and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

I once got busy in a burger king bathroom.

* The kids are motivated enough to not get scared, regardless of the bloodshed. Even the very last one will give it his/her best to take you down.

I think people need to think of the 5 yr olds as animals and not babies. Or let me put it this way, would your answers change if we changed the question to same sized dwarves/midgets/little people?

Movies vastly overstate the amount of blood a dying person will release under the soothing touch of blunt force trauma.

Let's just say that was the last time I got to drive the carpool.

absolutely. I believe intelligence of attackers has everything to do with it. That and I'm irrationally afraid of the wee people.

What about with weapons?!!! [Re: gonores]
#1559995 - 01/18/05 01:13 PM

if the kids were brain-warped motivated, like 5-year-olds on PCP / Dr. Evil psychokids, then 30 is a fair bet. many more if not: they will all cry after a few blood-curdling screams and you show them an eyeball or two. if you get to pick out of 5x the number then 30 again. there are some strong enough to hurt you if you aren't big.

but, suppose each child is motivated and gets a very sharp one-inch knife. then i think it's more like 20.

and, suppose you could pick any weapon, but each kid gets the same weapon. what would you choose (if anything)? I would take a 35-pound spiked elongated mace or a 45-pound broadsword.
