[Frank]

Alright you have until 9:05 to claim idol clues or to make a mole guess.

[Kristina]

hellos

[Mike]

Hello hello.

[Frank]

Ok nobody wants an idol clue and nobody is accusing any moles. Challenge in my next post.

[Julie]

I am kind of busy but I may be able to do this ^_^

Alright here's how this is going to work. You will take turns trying to cross a balance beam. Each round, each tribe sends one person forward to compete. If they succeed in crossing the beam, you cannot use that same person again this challenge.

You will need to use images just like these that will be specific to your tribe:



Any time after I say GO! the two people doing the beams for the round will start by posting the image with their tribe name on it. Then every two seconds after that you have to post the image with "balance" written on it 4 times. Exactly 10 seconds after the first image you posted you have to make another post with the image with tribe names on it to score a point.

If you cannot see the time in seconds when a post has been made let me know. You should have a format like this: 7:30;58 but if you don't you can fix that in the user control panel (gear button above) -> Board preferences -> My date time format: Custom and put this in the box

D M d, Y g:i:s a

A correct cross of the beam will have you making 6 posts like this:

9:00;00


9:00:02


9:00:04


9:00:06


9:00:08


9:00:10


(doesn't have to start at 00, just start whenever you want after GO! but keep them 2 seconds apart)

Mess up the timing and you fall off. You can then try again or be subbed by another player on your tribe.

First tribe to 3 points wins immunity. If both tribes get to 3 in the same round, we move to a tie-breaker round.

If no team can score for 3 rounds, we move on to posting every 3 seconds to make it easier, etc. I'll explain when/if we get there.

[Frank]

Please decide who's going first from each tribe and have your backups/next people in line ready.

Questions: If the person who is going first falls off the balance beam do they restart or shuffle to the back of the line? Do we only need 3 people to compete in this challenge? Both tribes will be given the sets of unique images they need? Do we post our balancing in this thread or the tribe discussion thread?

[David]

So do we technically only need two to compete in this challenge?

If the person going first falls off, they can either try again or ask to be subbed by another player.

You need at least 3 people to complete the challenge, as once you score a point, your team can't use you again. We play to 3, so at least 3 people. Do we have problems with tribes not having 3 people?

Yes both tribes have their unique set of images.

You post the balancing in this thread.

[Julie]

oh ok let me see if I can do this

[Frank]

I fully expect you to fail in the first rounds, but the challenge will get easier and easier. So I would suggest putting your best people up first.

Also, within the next 3 minutes decide who's going first from each tribe.

[Grant]

Is every 2 seconds for 10 seconds even possible? I'm not understanding something right...

It is.

[Frank]

Come on, I need one name for each tribe. Who's trying first?

[Frank]

Here's the tribe images. NAMES. NOW.
