ROUND THREE: CUTTING THE COURSE
Come on in, guys! This is on the line:
Today's challenge is something that's going to show how much you hate each other. Each of you has a doll attached by 50 ropes. The goal is for your doll to be the last one standing. You will, obviously, need to cut each other's ropes.
Of course, you all know me. I'm not going to do a plain ol' rope-cutting challenge. No no no. Each of you is allowed to cut up to 50 ropes, but you have to earn them by counting. In your confessional that is. I am also instituting a limit of 10 ropes per hour.
You will make a topic called "Rope-cutting" or "Cutting the Course" in your confessional. For every rope you want to cut, you have to earn it. For the first 10 ropes, you'll need to count to 10, so, with ONE NUMBER PER POST:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
All in separate posts. You will do that for each of your first ten ropes, starting over each time. After 10, the number will keep going up. Like so:
| ROPE # | COUNT TO | CUMULATIVE POSTS |
1 to 10 | 10 | 100 |
11 to 20 | 20 | 300 |
21 to 28 | 25 | 500 |
29 to 38 | 30 | 800 |
39 to 43 | 40 | 1000 |
44 to 49 | 50 | 1300 |
50 | 100 | 1400 |
If you mess up counting, it doesn't count and you have to start again. You may NOT delete or modify posts in EITHER topic - if you do, you will forfeit 5 ropes!
Remember: You have to count to 10 EACH time to earn the first ten ropes. Meaning you'll have ten sets of counting to 10, ten sets of counting to 20, eight sets of counting to 25, ten sets of counting to 30, five sets to 40, six sets to 50, and one set to 100. If you cut 10 ropes after counting to 10, NONE of your cuts will count. And nobody will know but us.
Once you've earned a rope, you may come in and post:
*[NAME] cuts [NAME]'s rope*
If you haven't earned that rope, your post will not count. I'm not deleting anything!
Because people are in different times zones and everything, I am implementing a limit of 10 ropes per hour. You may only earn a maximum of 10 ropes between any hour of the day, as in 10:00 to 10:59. This means that one person must do this at least five hours to get your quota of cuts.
Remember: You may ONLY cut up to 50 ropes. You may ONLY cut ropes while you still have some yourself. Meaning that once all 50 of yours are gone, you are OUT.
We're going to be nice this round and tell you what's up. The last person standing will win immunity and be safe from Tribal Council. The last THREE people standing will go to Deception Valley. And all fifteen of you will be going to Tribal Council. Only fourteen of you will be returning to the Tau Pan.
I know this challenge is complicated, but if you have questions, let me know. I'm probably invisible
. Survivors ready? GO!
