    Tired of boring hacking and slashing your enemies over and over?Do you want to add some fun* into your gameplay?Are you ready for exiting* adventures?

    I present you a thrilling* challenge!

    Construct anything that results in someone beeing trapped inside,but not killed : the only way for him to escape should be suiciding or ragequitting(the obvious target are knights).Bonus points if that is not just a simple hole in the ground, but something devilishly clever, maybe with a bait or some sort of mechanism to operate!Post pictures of your victims!

    Something like this :
    Finetrap13.png
    The builder runs from the knight comming -->, and opens door, like if he was panicking or unexperienced.Door stays opened,so knight can enter.The "bait" escapes using trapbridges on the right,comes over the top and seals the left door which a single knight won't manage to break under 5 seconds you need.Thats just an example.

    Look,I caught my first pokeknight!His special ability was ragequitting!

    Edit:
    Knightachoo1.png And this is albert : he got caught in my trap which has different design.We had a great conversation : he was a great guy so after 2 minutes I gave him 2 bombs and released him :D he did not kill me but retreated into the wilderness(blu base).
    /Edit.

    Can you hear it?I sure can.


    I want to be the very best,
    Like no one ever was.
    To catch them is my real test,
    To mock them is my cause.

    I will find each one of you
    Searchin` far and wide.
    My genius trap will serve me true,
    So you will rot inside!

    Stupid knights! *Gotta catch `em all!*
    You’ve thought that you’re so smart *Stupid knights!*
    You’ve jumped in and got caught like a rat.
    Stupid knights!
    Ohhh you could be a killer of mine,
    But between us is the rocky line!

    Stupid knights!*Gotta catch `em all!*
    A heart so true,
    Your courage will not pull you through
    You can`t teach me, but I’ll teach you
    Stupid knights! *Gotta catch `em all, yeah!*

    The hunt is on!

    *By fun,exiting and thrilling I mean dangerous,next to impossible and pointless activity.You were warned.

    Ha, I use a similar design, except underground, in the dark. That way you don't have to rely on them being inexperienced enough not to look ahead

    I prefer to have it instakill however, as the first builder, or knight with a bomb, to get in is going to wreck everything. Eventually one will get lucky regardless, but still.

    The Claustrophobia trap is good for this too.

    As one of my pet hobbies I sometimes go on random servers and build traps that are meant not only to capture a person, but to capture quite a few people and keep them trapped. If anyone has watched a team goomba video online they will know where this is going. Freedom is yours, if only you can answer a string of trivia questions, you have a shout out where anyone on the server can answer but normally any other answers will be ignored and the question voided. Teamwork is expected. Knights of any color are trapped without discrimination. Builders are killed instantly. The catch? Once all my questions are answered correctly or copy/pasted off of wikipedia freedom is delivered in the form of a lit keg. After spending a long time with meatball though, most people will be begging for death.

    I'm determined to find an efficient mechanic for a trap that will make it so that knights are the only ones that can survive getting into the trap, whereas pesky builders and archers will be insta-killed. This was easier to do back when builders only had two hearts, but now they are tough little mustards.

    Urgh.

    This is basically the claustrophobia trap but I made a slight alteration. I hardly believe it is practical in any way, shape or form. I find it slightly amusing though.

    [​IMG]
    The doors are there to lure people into thinking that they can break through. Problem is that in between them there is a stone wall. Also have a hole on the top, I suppose you could make rocks fall down there or simply shoot them to death.

    Again, hardly practical in my eyes, but it was fun building. I also do aplogize if someone has already posted this to the forum. I do not want to take credits. It was designed around the claustrophbia trap by user protosuper.

    I recommend making that hole 1 block wide so you can drop a bomb (as a knight) through to wipe out anyone without having to worry about shield towers ect. If you fall down that opening your victims will have a great time getting some revenge.

    BAHA!!!!. Nice timing too. My favourite The gassing chamber :
    :castle_wall: :castle_wall:
    :castle_wall::castle_wall::castle_wall::door::castle_wall::castle_bg::castle_wall::castle_wall:
    :castle_wall::castle_wall::castle_bg::castle_bg::castle_wall::castle_bg::castle_wall::castle_wall:
    :castle_wall::castle_wall::castle_bg::castle_bg::castle_wall::castle_bg::castle_wall::castle_wall:
    :door::castle_bg::castle_bg::castle_bg::door::castle_bg: :bridge::bridge::castle_wall:
    :door::castle_wall::castle_bg::castle_bg::door: :castle_wall:
    :castle_wall::castle_wall::castle_wall::castle_wall::castle_wall::castle_wall: :bridge::bridge::bridge::castle_wall:

    Almost always tricks unwary people into the gassing chamber and those pesky builders who think they can turn buildings against their creators. just hop on top and spam those arrows!!! (two holes to seal entry). Whenever those knights hack their way through, the forget that the entry is sealed! The wouldn't see the seald block because a team door is blocking the light out. They fall through, dodge the spike pit by hugging the top and stand on the ledge, then they brake their way in and BAM! their stuck and if your too pesky, just shoot them from the archer holes. :-)
