MXC: Most Extreme Contestant

in the early evening on Thursday, the 5th of February 2004 by Chad

Had someone do a Google search and show up for this site.
They want to become a contestant on Most Extreme Elimination Challenge. Which, btw, is on tonite at 9pm! Sorry bud, but you’re about 12 years too late.
The MXC show is made from clips from a Japanese TV show in the early 90’s, called Takeshi’s Castle. The entire point of the original show was 100 contestants would form a team under General Lee (Captain Teneal) to get through all the obstacles and finally storm the Castle, defended by Count “Beat” Takeshi (Vic Romano) and the Emerald Guard. There would be several rounds where most players would get eliminated. If any survived, there was a final challenge to rush the castle. The final challenge is essentially driving around in go-karts while playing laser tag. Anyone who successfully shoots Beat’s car wins. Apparently only 3 people have ever won, but the prize was probably about 1,000,000¥ (yen).
If you’re looking for more details on the original show, take a look at Takeshi’s Castle Online.
But to the original searcher… Yeah, I’d love to go through most of those challenges myself!!!
