Challenge will run this Friday from 8pm CST to 8am CST Saturday morning. Each tribe may post 4 times every 15 min for 1 point per post. Each tribe member may post only once every 15 min, so you will need 4 different tribe members to each post once every 15 min to get your full 4 points. You do not have to use the same 4 people for the entire challenge, so it's fine if you want to work in shifts.

Please note that the 15 min increments follow the standard division per hour:

1st quarter: x:00 to x:15
2nd quarter: x:16 to x:30
3rd quarter: x:31 to x:45
4th quarter: x:46 to y:00.

Be mindful of the divisions between quarter-segments. If you post at 8:15, it will count for the 8:00-8:15 interval.

You can post as often as you like, but only one post per member per quarter segment will count as a point, with up to 4 different tribemates posting per quarter segment. Therefore you can earn 4 points every 15 min, or 16 points per hour. The contest runs for 12 hours so the maximum number of points you can earn is 192.

Drake Tribe read: You will be going into this challenge with an 8-6 advantage. Normally on the tv show a tribe with an 8-6 advantage would be required to sit out two members to make the teams even. I never thought this was completely fair since the tribe with numbers earned that advantage, but at the same time it isn't fair for a tribe of 8 to beat up on a tribe of 6 when numbers count. Therefore we're going to compromise by having you sit out one member of your tribe. Please inform me before the start of the challenge which member you are sitting out. If you do not tell me I will draw someone at random and if that person is one of the four who show up then you're pretty much screwed. Decide ahead of time who will not be there and keep in mind you cannot sit out the same person(s) in back-to-back challenges.

In keeping with the new schedule please remember there will be another challenge Sunday night at 8 pm CST.

I almost forgot, if Drake Tribe wins they will gain immunity and an additional clue to the location of the Golden Key. If Cook Tribe wins they will gain immunity and the 1st half of the treasure story.

Regarding the treasure story, it will be released to every forum member a few days after all the survivors have had a chance to review the complete story. If Cook Tribe wins the next couple challenges everyone will have the story by next week, if not it will be longer.

I actually feel we have a shot here...these challenges are fun, and simple. No real discussion required, just flat out be here.

That was the problem last night. Not enough people were here. It'll probably be the way the game goes tomorrow night as well once we get further into the night.
