Select a handgun with a combination safety lock and unlimited loaded magazines. How many 5 year olds will be able to successfully unlock a combination lock before you have blasted their little brains all over the gym? Plus if any of them start to get close you just pick them off early.

Does the one-day training include training on the weapon being used, or is the weapon a surprise just dropped in at the beginning of the day? If the training includes the weapon being used, your plan is seriously flawed and is sure to produce the lowest score possible.

I think it has to include training for them as well. The contest must be fair.

BTW, I think Rockstar, the makers of manhunt would be most interested in this idea.

Probably, but I really think this is the kind of thing that needs to be experienced 'for real' and loses much of its value when ported to a TV screen. Don't get me wrong - it'd be fun as hell, but I think it'd not have much replay value.

True, but I bet it would be hard to get the parents to sign the waivers [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I wonder how many hungry (of course they'd be ill-tempered) house cats people think they could take out. That'd be more of a challenge then the 5yr olds I think. I say if they are truly hungry/angry, maybe 15 cats could do the trick.

I think I would also have a pocket full of new pennies or other shiny things. That way, if they did rush at you, you could throw the pennies on the floor, distracting half of them, which would buy you some time to regroup.

Plus, in a group of 100 5-year olds, probably at least 10 of them would put the pennies in their mouth. They start passing out from choking, and your score just went up.

Gonores,

I might give this challenge to the Marines. I am going through a course right now to be qualified to be a Forward Air Controller and most of the guys are Marine Aviators (Im Navy). I thought I should ask you if you are kosher with me bringing your idea outside the 2+2 environ. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

We have plenty of jarheads here. Besides the swinging wing don't know squat about killing 5 year-olds unless you want them blown up. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Great thread.

This question becomes a lot more interesting if we consider 9 or 10 year olds. I think 20 would definitely be tricky then.

Am I allowed to headbutt?
