Still I’m going to do my challenge shortly just to get it out of the way and end the round for myself

Head Righter I believe we'll need longer to do the challenge, as we've not progressed past 3rd position in the challenge order picks as yet, and the challenge deadline is in something like 6 hours unless I'm mistaken. You are mistaken, the deadline is a good deal later than that. But if we don’t have an Inheritance Order locked in within whatever ‘tonight’ means to each of you, then I’ll start tagging the remaining players to leave a preference list we can automate the order from if the actual deadline arrives before they come back online.

I love him for his looks, not his ability to follow instructions.

I agree with Dame Diana in the sense that I too thought this would be arbitrary, and that it would've been anyone's preference to be picked earlier rather than later, although I do understand your case for going later Robert. I just woke up from a bloody long slumber, and would've disappointed to see that I had not been picked just because I didn't make a statement about being so since I thought that was obvious, but thankfully that didn't happen

Oh now that my king is here I guess I'll be put to work and can't go back to sleep again. Instead I am off to work. What needs dustying off, other than the Prince's abilities to read instructions?

I suppose it depends when you predict the fail point will be. Remember, failing yourself won't eliminate you if the person before you failed also. Or any person who came before you.

No need, Camille. Tasting your feet in the wine was already plenty good. You're off for the day! Go do some knitting or something, I don't know what constitutes a lowly maid's pastime.

If you have a gut feeling about the fail point yeah make your case and ask for a position. For me, I am going to be matter of fact and ask for the lowest degree of difficulty possible because it's gonna give me more time, more chances to rotate the bloody pictures correctly. You can't predict anything if we don't know how much time anyone's gonna have

I know, do we not know how long we have before we start?

I will start migrating to the other chatrooms, I believe the Head Righter made different skins for all of them and I would like to see that. If you want to address me directly you can find me at the groups tab

I've returned, I've been away from here a lot today, as you saw both my posts in this thread were literally the last times I was able to check in.
I'll chime in on a few things, just to say again the challenge is what I meant is arbitrary overall, you could get completely lucky and it could go fast or you could do as Ebenezer of House Pooge and screw up the actions, it's just nothing any of us could predict or be sure or unsure of, and from what I understood of the format (Which also could be wrong.) no matter where you placed or had time, you could still be eliminated. So it's just a lot of luck of the draw.
I also do think it would be great if we got more time for the challenge window. I understand the need for the days off to come sooner, but if we're just waiting on people to be comfortable/alert/in a good headspace to compete and not have deadlines in the AM hours when the brain is not as functiony as it is when you are rested and such, I don't know. That's how I feel.

Also, Prince Pirate Richard just coming in and then taking off is amusing. ![](https://pa1.aminoapps.com/6216/674e4f6349028cdfb708f9d11b8daaf505c04e9c_hq.gif) I love the 10 hour pause since the last pick and now there is still a wait on him. over half a 31 hour window with little progress, love for that for us. It's certainly on theme.

It's certainly on theme. It's an incredible move to take 10 hours, finally make the pick but do it in the wrong thread and then fuck right off again without realising. Just incredible.

Also don't know if everyone has realised but they are running through the answers to the last challenge in their little thread and my god did Trumpey nail this shit. He was literally pulling things out of his trumpet and getting all of it right. He did the windy fence thing for 4 fences, connected those dots in a random pattern and I think he actually max pointed the maze. I now understand why we got 57 points. It had nothing to do with me.

I started getting a lot more points after I gave up in that challenge.
