Description:
ten years later, due to massive demand (mostly impersonated by wally), we're bringing you back one of the worst schemes ever:
get frank made by peja and philie for the worms scheme contest 2010, where it scored a fantastic rank #18 (of 19 contestants).
we updated the scheme a bit but sadly lost the original written rules (for wsc) so i'm trying to put them back together in a more understandable way.
the basic idea is, having to rope around a fast drowning environment.
choose a simple structured and small tower race map, put 4 worms in each players team, plus select cpu 5 team with 8 worms.
it's played as co-op against the cpu. you start with 0 weaps, have to collect crates, and then need to kill the cpu worms 1 by 1, but important:
you can only attack the worm that is lowest on the map (or nearest to the water).
there's is zook available, but you are only allowed to use it for making your way through the (destructible) map, not for attacking.
the zook will be the cpus weapon of choice for killing you.
only after you kill the cpu worm 'frank', you are also allowed to use zook for attacking.
you can also play this as pvp, and let one player take the role of 'franks team' (make sure to rename one of your worms to frank or determine one to be frank).
with the exception of frank himself, the worms in franks team are not allowed to use the rope, but the zook and any other weap if they can collect a crate.

note: mablak thought in his review of get frank for wsc, that this scheme would be played with cba. but that's not the case, of course.

One of the intricacies of get frank, is no one knows how to properly play get frank.  No one knowing what the hell is going on is a core gameplay mechanic of get frank.  You either get frank, or you don't get frank.

I have some replays someone of the community gently sent to me, but not sure if I should share them here, I would have to ask to the players first and the chat might be not so cool. Anyway, I think the replays I have show considerable confusions about the rules and probably wrong gameplay. As I said before, I consider this a meme scheme. I think I would enjoy trying it, though.
