Welcome to Thursday! Two days left to secure your standing in Week 7, and most importantly get yourself out of last place to avoid the pit of doom. Remember weekly challenges are due at 4:00 pm EST on Friday. Get those Bucket Ball scores in.

Congrats to TIB for getting the first and second most liked post. Mr. Popular over here.

Here are the bonus points for the Emoji Challenge. Remember you started off with a base score of 100 just for posting.

Spoiler	+
Originality Bonus - Extra 100 points if theirs was original. :) - Bonus 100 points :p - Bonus 150 points (: - 001 point instead of 100. Ps) - 200 points :muscles: - 250 points Looks like it varied quite a bit! Lots of 200 point bonus bumps.

Task One
The special child task will be posted at 5:00 pm EST. This one will be similar to yesterdays as it is a word puzzle that will just need the answer posted via PM.


And now for the main event...


Buffy, Curtis, Rose, Nav

Vlady, Lamps, Brian, Josh

TIB, Herm, Mittens

We will be playing scavenger hunt! Instead of items you will be scavenging for you will be scavenging for Numbers. The second numbers (:00 to :59) to be exact. Similar to the red rover challenge this challenge will test your timing.

I have made a thread for each team based on their color (so pay attention to what color you are). You may post strategy in there if you want (though you might not want to when you see below).

Your time will start when someone on your team posts *COLOR STARTS*. When your team starts you will begin posting with the goal to get all the second markers from 0 to 59 in your thread. So you have to make a post that ends :00, :01, :02, :03... all the way to :59. It does sound pretty difficult but with 3 or 4 people it should not be that bad.

However I am going to make it a little more difficult. If the other teams notice that you have started they can post a number in your thread from 0-59. They are essentially stealing that number from your basket and making you get it again a couple rules on this:

1. It must be a number that they have already gotten
2. Each person can only post once. Meaning if Green is going, at most there can be 7 additional numbers they have to get.
3. Obviously once the team has completed you can no longer post.

Spoiler	+
Example: So far Green has 00, 04, 07, 10, 12, and 15. Vlady posts 12. Green has to get 12 again.

Red is at a significant disadvantage with only having three players instead of four. I will give them a slight advantage. They will have a 1 minute head start, meaning they will have 1 minute shaved off their time at the end. I have no idea if this will help them too much or not help them enough but hopefully it is balanced.

If after 15 minutes you have not completed (16 for Red) your time is up. If all three teams fail I will determine the standing by least amount of numbers remaining

The winning team will earn 1000 points each, second will earn 500 points and if last place atleast attempts they’ll get 250.

You are free to start this whenever. I will make the threads and let me know if you have any questions. I will give you all until midnight to do this, but if you start much later than 9 you might not get results by tomorrow.

Team threads created.
