SMS has taken over my messenger+ app and I don't know how to get rid of it. I got rid of it when it took over my Facebook messenger app by googling how to do so, but I'm having real trouble figuring this one out. Any of you tech savvy people know how to do it?

Thank You. And you are very kind.

Did you try rebooting your phone? That happened to me and rebooting worked.

Does anybody have any suggestions on sharing? Because if we don't share, it's probable that nobody will get the idol (which may be fine, I guess, IDK). More fun to share.
That's a good idea. Here is one of my clues.

The 1st row is all palm trees

The diagonal from top right to bottom left are all palm trees in a straight line.

#53

In that case, eliminate the "Z." The bottom row? All palms.

We should start a fish list so the fishers know who to feed. Sorsha with the fishing gear is amazing, so hopefully there is enough for all. I am full, so I don't need to be on that list. Maybe people who need things should bold it or put it in large letters so the fishers and healer know who to help in order.

#55

I am at five hunger. If you gave me a fish before S~V~S, my hunger went down, not up.

I sent in a PM giving it to you. Maybe that was the night you got sick?

Did anybody over here eat? I think we were all fed and healed by the last challenge, so if all of you guys need to eat, you should make a point of letting fishers know it.

Hopefully assuming we brought the gear and the chicken with us food will stop being an issue.

#57

I just double checked, this is when I sent the PM:

Sat Mar 11, 2017 11:55:53 am

Saturday was the day that ended with the tribes flipping people. Maybe fish did not go with you? In any case,

Someone please feed Epignosis, he's starving!!

#58

Epignosis wrote:In that case, eliminate the "Z." The bottom row? All palms.

. . . Could the idol be buried under a palm tree?

#59

I disagree with giving one correct clue and one false clue. I think if this is going to be solved then we need to work together honestly until it comes down to the end when we really have to turn on each other. Maybe it will get me voted off. So be it. I'm no good at puzzles like these. I can't gety head wrapped around them. So...I will do what I can to help solve it. And what I can do is give you guys two truthful clues. Hate me...I don't care. I'm just trying to do what I can to contribute.

-no water source shares a border to the north, south, east, or west of another one, except the river between e3 and b6 (where rows are labeled A-F and columns labeled 1-6)

-the diagonal from top right to bottom left are all palm trees in a straight line.

#60

Epi..I would love to feed you, but you won't let me cook for you IRL so I cannot cook for you here either.

I don't think anyone would hate you for this. :P

#62

You never know chuck....I am usually surprised when eliminated in a mafia game. Rarely do I understand why people want me know. (I am lynched a lot.)

#63

Whooaaa I also fell asleep before the votes were read and woke up late. Damn guys! We made it! Exciting stuff.

#64

As an addendum to merging, the new tribe is in possession of:
-fishing gear
-a chicken

For the uninformed, the chicken produces an egg every night to restore 1 hunger to a random player. If a player PM's me, he/she may eat the chicken and immediately restore 3 hunger. This will end all chicken benefits for the tribe.

I am doubling back on the rules to the challenge and have decided not to release the rest of the puzzle clues to the public at all. Happy guessing!

#65

Code: Select all

A [T][T][T][T][T][T]
B [?][?][?][?][T][W]
C [?][?][?][T][W][?]
D [?][?][T][W][?][?]
E [?][T][W][?][?][?]
F [T][T][T][T][T][T]

-no water source shares a border to the north, south, east, or west of another one, except the river between e3 and b6 (where rows are labeled A-F and columns labeled 1-6)
-the diagonal from top right to bottom left are all palm trees in a straight line.
-Bottom row is all palms
-1st row is all palms

I think this is what we are currently dealing with, unless I misunderstood. So far, I see no reason that the idol couldn't be literally anywhere, but maybe this helps some people.

Any other clues?

The river between e3 and b6 is ambiguous enough that the river doesn't has to be in a straight line

Any other clues?

#67

Sorry that was supposed to quote and say the river post is ambiguous enough that the river doesn't have to be in a straight line- it just starts and ends at those points

#68

F [T][T][T][T][T][T]

Points E3 and B6 are connected by water, but we don't know how. No other waters share any common borders.

Thanks for the clarification.

#69

Is one person enough for the shelter?

And seriously, does anyone have any other clues they'd like to offer? What we have so far seems not useful.

Lorab, may we talk tonight? Golden, I know there's a line, but eventually I want to talk to you. Opt...Can we talk tonight too?

I have info about the challenge...Anyone else?

I was supposed to btsc with Golden and sorsha today- maybe I can do Golden tomorrow instead if he's down? I could do Elo and Sorsha tonight if they're still on board?

#71

Here's my clue.

5) one and only one water source is surrounded by 8 Palm trees

Speedchuck, would you be open to having BTSC tonight?

Sure thing. Thanks for the clue.

#73

S~V~S wrote:Omg I fell asleep and slept late.

Sorry DH. DAT BAT. No one comes into our hut and threatens us with a bat.

I am putting in bts for Faraday and I would Reallllly like Golden but if he's backed up I would like INH. Then I will get coffee and figure out what's going on.

I'd like to have BTSC with you tonight too, SVS.

#74

ATTENTION:

My tired brain farked up the grid last night. The columns should be 1-6 and the rows should be A-F. Currently it is reversed. Will update grid accordingly. Terribly sorry for the oversight.

That's okay. I got mine right.

It wasn't enough last time.

The idol is adjacent to 3 palm trees and 5 water sources.

I have that clue^ and also there are only 4 palm trees in the 3rd row

#79

Now that I've picked, I'm adding my clues:

B [?][?][?][?][T][W]
C [?][?][?][T][?][?]
D [?][?][T][?][?][?]

-the diagonal from top right to bottom left are all palm trees in a straight line.
-Bottom row is all palms
-1st row is all palms
-the idol is adjacent to 3 palm trees and 5 water sources
-One and only one water source is completely surrounded by trees
-The idol is not on a border plot
-The idol is on a water source
-4 palm trees in third row

#80

Speed chuck... btsc tonight?

#81

There are a total of two bakers dozen of palm trees on the grid

#82

#83

D5

I was going to have BTSC with SVS, and the other one, whoever.

#84

BTSC with INH and Sorsha, confirmed.

Just so you both know, though... I'm not usually around in the chat the entire day. I can't access it at work. Only early morning and some evening chat for me.

#85

So is anyone going to help with the shelter, or nah? Because if they're not, I don't want to waste my time, and would go exploring instead.

#86

I'm on it.

I'm on it.

#88

Gah, I was too slow... pretty sure one of you already found it- one of those would have been my guess. Good job!

#89

I'm pretty spotty with the chat too during the week. Send in bts for opt_out and speedchuck

#90

E3

My other clue is that the idol is on a water source.

#91

Oh, and this:

E4 and D5 are part of a river, and that river ends at E3

I forgot to put the trees into my guess, so prolly one of those first people got it.

#92

Also- I'm pretty sure that since we've merged we can create a new tribe name if anyone has ideas!

#93

Not everyone must participate in the challenge, but if you do you will be prone to losing thirst and energy.
Current claimed plots:
C5
D4
D5
E3

This is also an added rule:
Because this has become an individual game more than ever, there will be no sharing of fish you receive from fishing. You eat what you get, unless otherwise noted.

#94

I don't think everyone should guess today. Combining our "no shared water borders except in the river" with the clue that "the idol is on a water source" and "bordered by 5 water and 3 trees"...

The idol HAS to be on the river. No exceptions, thanks to our other clues about water. There are only 5 or so reasonable guesses.

And dang, no sharing fish. Those with the lowest hunger need to get some fishies.

#95

There you go hungry people, go fishing

#96

Wow: Go to bed early and miss a whole lot!!

My clues (one of which someone else had):

the fourth row and the fourth column have an identical pattern from left to right/top to bottom respectively

the 3rd row has exactly 4 palm trees

Elohcin wrote: Lorab, may we talk tonight? Golden, I know there's a line, but eventually I want to talk to you.

Yes, please. I was going to offer the same, to you.

And I'm going to go get water--staying hydrated has done well for me. And with people in the challenge, there will be extra thirsty people, so extra people getting water is probably a good thing.

They still have sick people over here, too. So the more water the better.

I am sending in Faraday and INH

I like it. It still works with the muppet song.
