There will be 4 activities this week. All events start on Thursday, August 18, at 12:00 AM, SST. Three of the four events are continued from last week. Good luck. ;-)

1. Treasure Hunts - Week 2
This event lasts two weeks. You were given the instructions for this last week, so if you need to review them, please read the Second Week's Activities' thread. The scoring system HAS BEEN REVAMPED. All hunts are now worth 10 points, not 100. Teams receive 3 participation points for the FIRST six hunts they open and do one favor for in the correct categories. Once you have completed six hunts in the same categories as before, YOU ARE DONE. This activity ends on Wednesday, August 24th.

2. Scavenger Hunt - Week 2
This is the SECOND part of this event. You have one week to complete this activity. Please send a screenshot of your locker to Riza Hawkeye for verification purposes by Thursday, August 18, 12:00 AM, SST. All items on List #1 are INVALID after Wednesday, August 17, 11:59 PM, SST. You will be given a second list on the Sleuth Talk board. All items MUST BE COLLECTED IN ORDER, and screenshots must be sent to Riza as you collect each item. You have until Wednesday, August 24, 11:59 PM, SST, to complete this list.

3. Role Playing Essay Contest - Week 2
This event lasts two weeks. You were given the instructions for this last week, so if you need to review them, please read the Second Week's Activities' thread. Essays are due Wednesday, August 24, 11:59 PM, SST.

4. Twist/Closer Contest
This is a *TEAM* writing contest. One writer for your team is already assuming most of the responsibility for the Role Playing Essay, so DO NOT BUG THEM about this. The other 3 members of the team will submit ONE entry. Together, you will submit the idea and writing for ONE complete twist (and accompanying closer). Ideas and writing must be as fully detailed as possible. You must include descriptions of the twist's effects if necessary (gain faction standing, trigger Larry the Toe, etc).

Please include prompts for options when the twist appears, such as ''Continue case,'' or ''Quit case.'' Be original. All submitting teams get 3 points for completion. Judges panel will determine placements. First place gets 10 points. Second gets 7. Third gets 5. Fourth gets 3. Entries are due by Wednesday, August 24, 11:59PM, SST.

In regards to Event 4, should this also have an "Olympic Theme" to it? Like, a twist occuring at an Olympic Event or can it be a regular twist?

Speaking of roleplay - as I mentioned before, I did offer help for you guys, but unfortunately, no one responded within the time limit I had set (Y'all had the opportunity to contact me until August 16th, 23:59 PM server time). So I assume you will all have a blast writing the RP and have no questions :) - looking forward to the RP writings!

For the Twist/Closer activity, No, you don't have to have an Olympic theme to it (though if you can work one into it, hey, good job, team!! ;-). I'm hoping that these will be used as twists in upcoming cases, so no, they don't have to have an Olympic element to them. Thank you for asking about that, Vulkie. ;-)

All Participation Points have been verified, and certified as *OFFICIAL* on the Second Week's Activities thread. If your team wants to know where you stand, please go look on the thread. Thank you!! ;-)

When rollover occurs, the extra Olympic favour items for the Week 2 Scavenger hunt eg pile of feathers' will be turned off, and the extra items for Week 3 Scavenger hunt will be turned on.

When we get to Week 4, I'll switch the Week 2 items back on (and leave the Week 3 items up) for a couple of weeks, so they are available post olympics, just in case anyone wants to collect any of these items.

PLEASE NOTE: The 'Fencing Mask' is called 'The En Garde"!! Sorry breit, it might not have had a name when I gave you the original list, just realised.

I was also wondering why there are currently 6 people in Rick's Cafe - does it have to do with people being absent?
