The Syndicate

I gave that DH guy a thorough licking, don't you worry. DrWilgy would be proud.

Someone infect me, and I'll use my one-shot lick ability to infect DH during our match.

...Wouldn't that be a great strategy?

The idea of using up your hits first seems like a good idea to me. I'll do that as well.

Hit high
Hit low
Hit high
Hit low
Block

Block

Ooh, okay. I did figure it out but I got caught in linki and didn't realise

How do you know the order that they're participating?

I don't think anyone is participating twice, Quin. And unless you have a Strength bonus like me... well, I would be the one participating twice, if such a thing were possible.

I thought that since I had to go twice last time that it'd be the same since we still have one less member than the other tribe

I know Epi is the Logic Master, but I tried a little bit with my inferior brain.

This works for me.

I will sign up for as many slots in this challenge as I can. My Strength bonus means I roll d10 and d8, instead of d8 and d6.
I'm sorry, there was a host error: no player will be sitting- every player will be participating once, since you only have 7 players. I foolishly copy/pasted Mamana's clarifications in here. It should be fixed now.

Either way, I have Long Con signed up first.

oh, so I can't play for Epi who is sick?

I probably shouldn't be the one to play the second round because I don't have a bonus.

Long Con wrote:I'm at 18 Energy, 10 Thirst, and 8 Hunger. I think Epi should take a nap today... or at least stoke the fire if he doesn't want to do that.

I'd really like to know the effects of each choice. Does a nap replenish energy? Does it take away energy to stoke the fire? DFaraday, did your walk in the wading pool affect your stats at all? Quin, how about the felled palm tree - stats effect? Did you get anything out of it?

We need information!

I take what I said back. My energy seems high for someone who used up 6 energy in a challenge on Day 1, and I haven't done/received anything else. At the very least walking might use 0 energy.

hey kids

I have 17 energy and I'm fit as a fiddle, so I can pick up somebody else's slack if need be. I don't have an advantage for the challenge though.

@LC - nope.

I am participating twice, orders TBA

There was a joke in there somewhere, but it got too dirty.

I will keep you watered, SVS.

This sounds like a lot of guesswork. I don't have any strategy in mind. Does anyone have any abilities/advantages like last time?

fuck me I forgot to send in my btsc requests

I did black dw k

I also almost posted this in blue vs red k

Also thank you for the food Sorsha, I have a PM that isn't actually appearing in my inbox but I'm assuming its about that

Ugh, when is midnight from right now? I'm pretty sure I wont be around so if I change my rocks to black it'll have to be early

I did yellows all the way, I'm not really following unfortunately so if you want me doing something else then let me know

It sounds like you all want to go black?

Great. I'm not home. I'll read up later.

I don't think anyone should feel like they let us down. The challenge was super confusing, but we'll all get better at understanding the expectations as time goes on

Also, I'm hungry.
I have one to Quin and one to notsawyer because I wanted them to feel loved I could keep one for myself and I will probably in the future but I decided to see how it goes sharing. They both participated in the challenge. Maybe Epignosis can share with you?

dawwwww

I think Tribal is something different to just voting now, no? If not, I'll vote in the morning. It'll probably go to sig.

I'll be away for the next two days, so while I'll be able to check in on my phone I'll only really be here if there's a challenge or something.

Only one ball was needed, as Quin would learn. He threw 2 more just to make sure, but that was the 8th hoop cleared!! LEG 2 is FINISHED

Scotty edited the post I declared it in

I hope the last two ball throws didn't count for our time though

Scotty I declared my thingymajig a few pages back.

We might have to vote you out after all.

have mercy on a poor millennial

Now I'm glad I didn't do the water puzzle. I've never seen Die Hard.

That's okay. Neither do I.

Yes, you should have thrown 5 light balls... or 50000 light balls, or something.
I'm just going to pretend I'd have had bad luck if I went with the light balls.
Maybe you can take a nap tomorrow.

Or maybe...

hello my friend. I'm going to shoot some balls. If I throw five heavy balls and i get the 8th ball on the 2nd try, i imagine i won't have to throw the last three, right?

And whoever does the organizing (with day ending with me in bed most days, I won't be much help there~ isn't it after midnight by you, Quin?) I will check in periodically to declare my intention to perform whatever task is assigned to me in the thread as per the rules.

It's 10pm for me right now, so it's probably best to just pretend I'm on a completely opposite schedule to the majority of people here. Since I won't be here when everyone else is I'll just do whatever I'm told if I'm assigned something in the morning.

I'll help with fire then. I never got a PM regarding my item but I've seen glasses be used to get a fire going in previous seasons, so maybe it'll be an advantage.

The first four options seem to be camp based, I'm spit balling that the more people on those options the better our energy boosts are going to be, so I think getting people on all of those options would be smart. The rest kind of speak for themselves though

Quin wrote:I've got 15.

Scratch that, I've got 20 energy as well. \_(:T)_/

The third section is different in that it actually has to be solved whereas the other sections are probability/time based, so we'd ideally put someone who's good with riddles there. I remember Epi's performance in Psych so if he's as good at solving riddles as he is creating them he's probably our guy. Up to him though.

linki: Are votes changeable?

All legs will be tabulated at End of Day, and the tribe that finishes in the shortest total time wins immunity.

You do not need to be here specifically at any point today- only determine what leg you will participate in.

For instance, if you are performing in leg 2, you may start shooting balls at once. You can either shoot several balls at once, or take turns shooting with other players until I can get back to you.

If you are performing in leg 4, you must all agree in thread on which option you will take.

Does that make sense?

So I could say I'm doing task x right now and then I'd be set? I mean, I won't, but that's helpful to know since I'm away for a few days coming up.

By the way, I like this tribe. We've got a strong team here

How does this work in terms of timing, Scotty? Does the entire tribe need to be here at once for the challenge or can we do our parts on our own (or within our groups) and then you add up the total?

Looking at the challenge and the affect on energy, I think it's a good idea to post our energy levels so we can work out how best to strategise without screwing us over for later challenges.

I've got 15.

alright kids, let's get started.

who wants to tell me what the hell is going on? alternatively, i could read.
