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).

Thanks for keeping track of all those hunts, Riza. I hope you don't get bad dreams of TH data now.

Great job to all the teams! I thought for sure since we didn't get all 6 THs, we were in last place! I didn't keep track of the other teams TH wins on my spreadsheets.

After the Week 2 Scavenger Hunt the scores were:

First Place: Rick's Cafe Americain (59 points)
Second Place: Chariots of Fire (50 points)
Third Place: Feminine Assassins (44 points)
Fourth Place: A Race to Adventure (42 points)

After this (and minus the results not yet tabulated for the Week 3 Scavenger Hunt, Twists & RP)

The scores would be:

Chariots: 50 + 58 = 108
Assassins: 44 + 55 = 99
Rick’s: 59 + 35 = 94
Race: 42 + 48 = 90

I reckon.

I don't think we'll actually get 58 points. I thought that the winner gets 13 points, second gets 10, third gets 8 and fourth gets 6. Or will it be different for the Treasure Hunts?

How did they manage to get 58 points out of one event... if it were including the scavenger hunt, twists and RP, I could see it happening, but with only one event counting...

SOMEONE GET SQUIRREL AWAY FROM THOSE COCKTAILS!!

No, they said 10 points per won game and 3 per each category, with a max of 18. So yes, 58. Four won hunts is 40, plus 18.
