Today's contestant is... me. D'oh!
The rules are simple - the Gungey Gameshow consists of three rounds and a final GUNGE ROUND - in order to avoid facing the gunge, you must complete TWO out of the three rounds satisfactorily. Simple, right? Ha, just you wait.
(The blog below is full of photos! To fit them all in, I had to make them smaller - to see a full-size version, simply click on 'em!)
Round #1
In our first round, you have ONE MINUTE to draw a picture of the icon of Nintendo gaming: Mario. The catch? You have to splat your face into a plateful of paint and use your NOSE as a paintbrush! This is going to get messy...
Personally, I think I did pretty well - at first glance, it may not look that much like Mario - but if you take in account the face I drew it with my FACE in a MINUTE - it's not bad at all! I also didn't get as much paint on my face as I expected - I just got a black nose like my cat Jet.
Round #2
In our second round, we have a general knowledge question for you about The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time. In front of you are three tubs filled to the brim with lovely, sloppy gunge. You will notice their lids are marked with pictures of the three Spiritual Stones. You must gunge yourself in the order of which you receive these items!
This was a first for me, I've never gunged myself before. I've always had somebody standing over me with a bucket - I've never been in charge of doing it myself. My word, it's nerve-racking. You know what's going to happen, but at the same time, you're apprehensive about doing it! Each of these tubs could hold 2 litres - and each was filled right to the brim with gunge! Anyway, I knew the order, the Kokiri's Emerald, the Goron's Ruby and the Zora's Sapphire - or GREEN, RED, BLUE - so I doused myself with six litres of gunge... gooey green, runny red and bubbly blue... Yuck!
Round #3
In our third and final round, you have ONE MINUTE to sing the entire "Still Alive" song from Portal. Once you are finished, you must slam your face into the lovely foam pie on the table in front of you.
Now as you know, Still Alive is a song that haunts me - thanks to a previous gunging I had... but - we all have to face our demons one day. I ACED this round - I rambled through the lyrics with time to spare! Before I face-planted in the pie, I made sure to take off my glasses... it's a good thing too - I hit the table so hard, I bumped my nose! I also held my face in the pie for a while... I was a little embarrassed about raising my head, because I knew I'd look super silly. I'm surprised at how long I could hold my breath!
Gunge Round
It's not fair! Even though I DID pass 2/3 of the rounds - I still got gunged anyway!
Yup, I was made to get on my knees in the already messy paddling pool, raise up my head and get absolutely covered in 12 litres of thick, gloopy, sticky bright yellow gunge...
All of the gunge used in this video, I got from an awesome UK retailer GungeSupplies.com - it's HEC gunge, made to a thick consistency. HEC is slightly different to natrosol, as it feels a lot thicker, gloopier and stickier. It's also a lot less slippery underfoot and cleans up a lot easier!
