Are you Frigid, Temperate or Torrid? Congratulations to redspyder A very tight finish, with shoop76 and Loose Canon in second and third places respectively.
I'm Temperate here on the SW coast of England. There are five main latitude regions of the Earth's surface comprising geographical zones, divided by the major circles of latitude. The differences between them relate to climate. They are as follows:
The North Frigid Zone, north of the Arctic Circle; show: Torrid Zone
In the Torrid or tropical Zone, also known as the Tropic, the Sun is directly overhead at least once during the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, the overhead Sun moves north from the Equator until it reaches 23.5 degrees North (Tropic of Cancer) at the June solstice, after which it moves back south to the Equator. In the Southern Hemisphere, the overhead Sun moves south from the Equator until it reaches 23.5 degrees South (Tropic of Capricorn) at the December solstice, after which it moves back north to the Equator.
show: Temperate Zones
In the two Temperate Zones, consisting of the tepid latitudes, the Sun is never directly overhead, and the climate is mild, generally ranging from warm to cool. The four annual seasons, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, occur in these areas. The North Temperate Zone includes Great Britain, Europe, northern Asia, North America and northern Mexico. The South Temperate Zone includes southern Australia, New Zealand, southern South America and Southern Africa.
show: Frigid Zones
The two Frigid Zones, or polar regions, experience the midnight sun and the polar night for part of the year - at the edge of the zone there is one day at the winter solstice when the Sun does not rise or set for 24 hours{one day}, while in the centre of the zone (the pole), the day is literally one year long, with six months of daylight and six months of night. The Frigid Zone is the coldest parts of the earth, and is generally covered with ice and snow.
show: History
The idea of a geographical zone was first hypothesized by the ancient Greek scholar Aristotle. He said that the earth was divided into three types of climatic zones, based on their distance from the equator.
25 Players playing in groups of 5. show: Game Details
All games will be 5-player terminator played with CC's "default settings" (Automatic, Sequential, Escalating, Chained, No Trench, Casual) together with Fog.
show: points
Points will be allocated as 2 points per termination plus either 1 to 4 for the position in which you are terminated or 5 points if you are the survivor.
show: gameplay
I will send out the game invites by pm with an auto-join link. If you do not join within 48 hours I will send direct invites. Failure to respond after a second invite will result in either a replacement being found (Rounds 1 to 4) or continuing with the remaining players.
