THIS POST IS PART OF AN ELIMINATION GAME – DO NOT REPLY TO IT UNLESS YOU ARE PLAYING
Mushrooms anyone? That was the opportunity that the players had last time. Let's see how it worked out for them.
According to @novaatebatman everyone has replied and we are ready to proceed, so here comes the next round.
DAY 6 ROUND 2 RESULTS
OPTION 1 – Leave the mushrooms alone.
The players who chose not to attempt to eat any mushrooms have moved on without even trying to eat..
The Players who chose Option 1 have now progressed to the next round.
OPTION 2 – Use the FIELD GUIDE. If any safe options exist, the FIELD GUIDE will automatically select them for you.
With the help of the field guide, the players chose to eat the tan, wrinkled mushrooms.
Cooking them was highly recommended, so those who could did. Others risked eating them raw. Morels contain small amounts of hydrazine toxins which can be destroyed when cooked, but can make you sick if eaten raw.
This is why it is important to cook these mushrooms first. However, in this game, the ones who ate raw Morels did become sick, but it was not lethal and they still got a meal out of it.
The players who chose Option 2 have now progressed to the next round and need to eat prior to the end of Day 8 in order to avoid starvation.
OPTION 3 – Attempt to eat the tan wrinkly mushrooms.
This effort had the same results as Option 2.
The players who chose Option 3 have now also progressed to the next round and need to eat prior to the end of Day 8 in order to avoid starvation.
OPTION 4 – Attempt to eat the red mushrooms with white spots and stems.
For the sake of this game these mushrooms were Amanita muscaria, the Fly Agaric Mushroom(I edited them to resemble this species.) Here is a little info on this kind of mushroom.
Although classified as poisonous, reports of human deaths resulting from its ingestion are extremely rare. After parboiling—which weakens its toxicity and breaks down the mushroom's psychoactive substances—it is eaten in parts of Europe, Asia, and North America. Amanita muscaria is noted for its hallucinogenic properties, with its main psychoactive constituent being the compound muscimol.
source
As you can see, death is rarely a result, but in this case, it was. After a crazed and wild hallucination, the players who chose Option 4 died.
Players who chose Option 4 are now dead and can wait until Season 7 to join back in. Thanks for playing.
DAY 7 ROUND 1 SCENARIO
The players are asleep on the ground. It is a little cold this night, but they are fine for the most part. It is just past midnight, and it is basically pitch black out.
Suddenly, they awake with a terror! Something is nearby, very near. Whatever it is, it sounds like it is attempting to sniff them out.
Out of instinct rather than conscious effort, the players stir and attempt to look. Within a split second it looks directly at them, and it is not alone.
Whether it is friendly or not, they can only guess, but they have a split second to make their move.
OPTIONS
OPTION 1 – Stay still and see what happens.
OPTION 2 – Try to shoot these two (for players with guns.)
OPTION 3 – Try to make friends with these two.
OPTION 4 – Have one player begin shooting while the other attempts to run away in the dark. (Please specify who runs and who shoots.)
OPTION 5 – Have one player begin shooting while the other attempts to run away using a flashlight for light. (Please specify who runs and who shoots.)
OPTION 6 - Try to run away in the dark.
OPTION 7 - Try to run away using a flashlight for light.
PLAYER RESPONSIBILITY
All players who have signed up and want to play must reply to this post with 24 hours in order to avoid elimination and continue gameplay. All players must reply to my option comment below, not to this post. I will reply to my own posts with the options each in their own comments, and the players must reply to whichever comment has the option that they wish to choose.
IMPORTANT: The Backup Food Supplies are in one ration portions, which can feed one player and keep them alive for two days. Also, if for some reason you decide to change your choice prior to the 24 hour response time cutofff, please contact @novaatebatman to make sure you are registered under the correct option.
Also, please remember to include your inventory in your reply. Example:
I have gas, a magnesium firestarter, a PLANT FIELD GUIDE and a pistol with 8 rounds of ammunition. I must eat by the end of Day 8. I choose Option 3 this round.
As always, please remember that all outcomes are predetermined. In an elimination survival game, most of your are going to die eventually. Nothing personal.
PRIZE POOL
The current prize pool is 475 SBD. The total prize pool amount will grow each round until the game is over.
A Special Thanks to @liberty-minded for Providing the Title Gif and the GAME OVER Gif. Again, a very Special Thanks to @novaatebatman for all the help keeping track of this mess. Also, thanks to @dwells for posing for the photos used today.

No need to eat until the end of day 8.
With a meal in us we do not need to eat again until the end of day 8 so that is great news. As for this round we will be choosing option 3. We have 2 pistols with 12 rounds, 2 bottles of gas, 2 flashlights and a field guide.
It's three for us. All dogs are good dogs. And if this is the end for us, at least we will die for our faith in humanity's essential goodness. We have morals. And morels.
Also, if a dog trusts a man, the man is trustworthy.
Love dogs.
We have a knife, gas (and a bottle of gas), a plant field guide, a flashlight, and a magnesium firestarter. We just ate some morels.
I knew those were the good ones. I didn't know that's what morels look like.
Nice pup. Good pup.
I have a shotgun with 5 rounds, a backup food supply, and water purification tablets. @heatherlg89 has a pistol with 8 rounds, a backup food supply, and a flashlight. We both have to eat by the end of day 8. We choose option 3. We cannot outrun the dog especially in the dark and I am not going to start shooting.....yet. I am hoping they are friendly but if not I have one hand on my shotgun.
I have a pistol with 8 rounds, a back up food supply, and a flashlight(cough cough fire). I choose option 3. Me and @Charlesarthuriii try to make friends with this guy. He's got a dog so maybe he's not a cannibal, or maybe his 🐶 dog is for sniffing out dinner(us)! Either way if he try's anything we have guns and we will use them if it comes to that!
I have gas, water purification tablets, a PLANT FIELD GUIDE, and I must eat by the end of day 8. I choose option #3 please.

Sharpe's Rifles chooses Option 3. Making sure not to make any sudden movements to alarm the dog.
I'll go for Option 3 and if they turn out to be un-friendlies, I can try to shoot them then. I do have my pistol handy and 4 rounds of ammo left. The flashlight is still in my back pocket if I need it, too. Having just eaten my morels raw, I'm in no shape to run and I refuse to play 'possum and end up in someone's cookpot without a fight. Fingers crossed for a survivable outcome...

How many times do I have to tell you that you're already dead?
You've reached the end of the line.
Your game is over.
Stop trying to keep playing.
We, Team Turner, being of sleepy but sanguine minds, choose Option 3.
In our split second decision making, we notice the owner of the dog is wearing tzitzot and a Sukkot t-shirt. This tells us he is a God-fearing man and is unlikely to sic his big German Shepherd on us without at least some conversation. If we're wrong, at least we're wrong in assuming the best of a man clearly out patrolling and not hunting us. The behavior of the dog was not aggressive but curious and as long as we do not threaten him or his master (or run away, which looks guilty and would make these two much more likely to be suspicious), there's a good chance we can benefit from the interaction. Standing still is unlikely to be of much use since the dog doesn't need to see us to know we're there and the man is unlikely to pass up anything his dog is curious about.
Option 3 for me please - "Try to make friends with these two"
While sitting completely still, I decided to politely and friendly greet these two. Don't need to spook @dwells and his guard dog.
I only have to eat by day 8 round two.

While I don't at all like being snuck up on....and if that dog growls he's libel to get shot....
still, it just ain't right to start shooting without an attempt at making friends! This one really has us nervous!
You won't see us coming. So be friendly, and you'll see us briefly...as we move on ahead.

I have a Shotgun(3 rounds ammo) , flashlight and a Plant Field Guide. I need to eat at the end of day 8 and I choose Option 1
I have a FIELD GUIDE, a backup food supply, a magnesium fire starter, and a rifle with 6 rounds of ammo.
I choose Option 1 this round.
I'm afraid of shooting him because the dog might bite me. If i run without a flashlight, i may stumble and fall.
I'll stay still and see what happens. Hopefully it doesn't sniff me out.
I choose Option 1.
I have a pistol with 8 rounds and 1 backup food supply. I ate 1 backup food supply at the end of day 6.
I have a pistol w/8 rounds, a knife, water purification tablets, and a plant field guide. I ate mushrooms last round and will not need to eat again until the end of day 8. There has been too much success in being friendly with people this season. I debated back and forth between shooting and waiting to see what happened because sometime soon there will be a massive kill off. So, I am hoping that he cannot see me and thinks that the sound is a wild animal. I will go with option 1 to stay still and wait, but I will for sure have my hand on my pistol to unload just in case.
I have a pistol with eight rounds of ammo, 2 backup Food Supplies, water purification tablets, and a Plant Field Guide. I need to eat by the end of day 8 to avoid starvation. I choose option 1 this round.

Option 8. Tell my dog to sit and then have a nice existential conversation with myself.
It's @dwells and a doggy!
I freaking love German Shepherds. I'm jealous. :P
His name is Max, and I must warn you, he's liable to lick you.....to death! Muahahahaha!
Did the uncooked mushrooms affect us more than we thought? ...dang... I thought one of you was bad enough.
Well in some way shape or form I'm going to survive this round.
LOL!
Is he fast? I got myself a flashlight and am considering running, getting lick to death ain't my thing.
This isn't my reality. I have no idea what PP has in store. He's a healthy full grown full blooded German Shepherd. I'm sure he could take down a deer so you would be pretty easy to take down.
I'm just fine with that!
I've got two cats that love licking affectionately. One of which I actually did train like a dog...
Some day, you may meet the Mighty Novalord! He loves doggies. He might try to steal Max.
Survivors
Everyone lived!

Steemit.Chat is not a reliable means of contacting me. So please don't use it. Odds are I will not see it and you will not get a reply.
Everyone?!? No one ate the crazy mushrooms nor failed to eat by the end of today!? Oh no!
You're welcome to check the spreadsheet for errors.
I went over it a couple times. Though I did miss the single death yesterday for a while for some reason, so I could be wrong.
I don't think STEEM-POCALYPSE has ever gotten this far into a game with seventy-two still active people.
Is he going easy on us, or have we just gotten better?
I don't know... He's not at home, so he could just be taking it easy on you guys?
Or he could be lulling y'all into a false sense of security...
Hrm...
Best keep on your toes.
Death comes for us all.
So, what you're saying is, that @papa-pepper is the Grim Reaper.
Death by pepper! The worst way to go!
Interesting idea...
