There will be 4 activities this week. All events start on Thursday, August 25, at 12:00 AM, SST. Good luck. ;-)

1. Sleuthetania Scavenger Hunt - All team members will board the Sleuthetania and hunt for a list of items that will be provided to them on the Sleuth Talk boards Thursday morning. As with the other hunts, once a team member has found the first item on the list, stored the item to the Agency locker, and sent a screenshot or copy/paste of the reward page to Riza, team members may proceed to look for the next item on the list. The team with the most items found gets 10 points. Team with the second highest amount found gets 7. Third gets 5. Fourth gets 3. PLEASE REMEMBER: Once you are on the boat, you CANNOT access your Agency, so clean out your locker before you board the ship. Riza will be expecting a screenshot of each team's locker before Thursday.

All teams may do a MAXIMUM of *TWO* trips on the Sleuthetania. You have until Wednesday, August 31, 11:59 PM, SST, to complete this activity.


2. Journal Pages Hunt - While on the boat, all members will do a hunt for Journal Pages. We have recorded each person's current collected Journal Pages. On Thursday, September 1, around 12:00 AM, SST, we will again compile a list of everyone's collected Journal Pages. All participating players get 3 points (this means you have to collect at least ONE Journal Page to get the participation points). The player with the most Journal Pages collected gets 10 points. Player with the second most Pages collected gets 7 points. Player with the third most Pages collected gets 5 points. Player with the fourth most collected Pages gets 3 points. And yes, there can be more than one point winner on the same team.


3. Introduction Creation Contest - Each team will create and submit TWO intros. One MUST be set on the Sleuthetania, and have a nautical theme. The second MUST have an Olympic theme of some kind. Spelling and grammar will be taken into account.

Devi, as I said in my response to your PM, I do not want to fight. And I am not 'slamming' you for speaking out. I'm simply asking for the same respect.
You don't think calling Rick's out specifically was "slamming" us? News flash. It was. And I will not start drama. I've had enough of that throughout these games.
But you'd better believe I WILL defend my team and myself if I feel we are being attacked. I think you would do the same. If you wouldn't, you shouldn't be playing in the games.
As Breit said, it's about spirit, sportsmanship, teamwork, building friendships and having fun much more than it is about counting what we see as advantages or disadvantages, contacts, or how many players are in an agency when it's known there are judges moving around or a substitute sitting in for someone, etc.
You have no idea how much I've bugged Breit, Squirrel, and Riza during these games through PM. They can vouch for me when I say I've made my opinion heard. On everything. Just because you chose to do so publicly doesn't mean everyone has to or should do it the same way.
And I really can't get over how you think it's okay to complain about Rick's having all the contacts on the boat, and then say you don't want to fight. My team was in worse shape that yours in at the beginning of these games. You'll get no sympathy from me. And remember, we didn't choose our teams.
And the boat was on the very first thing listed. My teammates, along with Riza, and several others can vouch I've spent plenty of time dreading this damn boat. We may not have known what specific events were going to happen, but it's common sense that contacts would be useful. Just as they would in any city.
Again, I'm not going to fight. But I will stand up for myself and my teammates. Much as you stood up for me when my comment got deleted. You know, the one that was speaking out about something I didn't like? Don't tell me I haven't spoken out.

And on that long note, I'm going to bed.

Good night and good luck!

For those wondering, yes, I'll be boarding the Sleuthania as well, so you can all enjoy my ice cream on the way towards NY :) (Won't be really boarding it, but you get the idea)

I joined these Olympics, as a noob, i am still a noob compared to most playing this game.

So.what if i hvent got all my contacts, this isnt stopping me playing. I have had a good time during the Olympics and made a few friends in the process. I must admit i find that there is too much attention paid to Agency websites and visits, kind of reminds me of the Stasi in East Germany but that aside it has been a laugh.

It is a competition, but at the end of the day it is only a game, so come on people enjoy what little is left of it.

Yours Murray

Reference [1]
The Zombie, (also known as skull-puncher), is a cocktail made of fruit juices, liqueurs, and various rums. It first appeared in late 1934, invented by Donn Beach (formerly Ernest Raymond Beaumont-Gannt) of Hollywood's Don the Beachcomber restaurant.[1] It was popularized soon afterwards at the 1939 New York World's Fair.
