Apologies to the players reading this post-game, I think we were all too busy being in yet another drug-induced stupor to properly discuss the events of the 8th episode. I'd say we don't endorse drugs, but we clearly do. How else did the Head Righter come up with this game?

Stop it. You know as well as I do that the cool ORG hosts always skip a round of commentary at around this point, then spend the whole of the next Episode's thread apologising for it, complaining about it, and relitigating every aspect of it until they inevitably say nothing about the newer Episode.

Well if you didn't want me to start an argument with you, you should have listened to me and told people what the score breakdowns were in the previous challenge. Do you expect them all to magically intuit that they got a point for every task they managed to find? Don't get me started on the impossible maze.

You've started me on the impossible maze, now. Why didn't they just read the instructions, with the points breakdown? ![:rolleyes](https://i.imgur.com/fJn0ul2.gif) We were perfectly clear and even had it all itemised. One point for reposting the maze image. Two points for attempting to draw a line through it. Four points for recognising that was impossible. Eight points for joining the Start to the Finish anyway by going through the red space around the whole thing. It's simple. Not like those bloody dice you threw in ![:smh](//storage.proboards.com/7334377/images/IqVEXbvgtMQLtNIqSetO.gif)

The dice puzzle was the best one! That had ambiguity! You could recognise the phrases were numbers and fill in the numbers for 5, or you could fill in a two, four and six phrase for 10. Much better than an impossible maze, you're just jealous that I'm so clever. ![:smh](//storage.proboards.com/7334377/images/IqVEXbvgtMQLtNIqSetO.gif) They'll promote me from coffee slave to head host in no time.

My two cents? Get used to the slavery now.
Also worth two cents? Those knockoff Set tiles. Somebody even knocked of a perfect set of three without appearing to recognise what they were, and stumbled into two points.
A far better deal would have been the one point for two of quell, quill, quart, quota, queue, quick, quote, query, quail, queer, quaff, qualm, quasi, quite, quest, quiet, quake, queen, quirk and quips.

Where am I? All I remember is being pushed off a boat into the ocean. What's all this about????

Get back to drowning. We're complaining about Actors complaining about their inability to read instructions, or decipher basic acronyms to confirm that THIS CHALLENGE ISN'T BROKEN and gain themselves six points.
But drowning... really? That was so three Episodes ago?

I don't know why you insisted on lying to them in the form of a puzzle. The challenge was clearly broken. It was definitely impossible to divide all of the trees into separate fields using only four fences for 8 points... Or maybe that's just because I flopped at it. I bullshitted my way through it using curved fences, but that was only worth 50% of the credit? Nonsense tbh.

I can confirm that it is you who are broken, Flaw Runner. At least. They'd have got 25% simply for putting the four fences around the sides, too... But far more disappointing were the failures to recognise the dot formation as the connect four puzzle it was supposed to be, just like the star of stars in their flightplan Challenge. They could get one point for each of the five correct solutions, and a sixth for drawing them in properly. Or two separate points for joining the dots together in some other manner of their choosing.

Can we go back to the days where we all made a happy and honest show without the threat of burning in 180 degree heat? I miss the old us

What makes you think we're suddenly some 'new' us? Don't be absurd. It's like the Hex Code boxes in the last Challenge - nobody ever gets your points.
Also out of curiousity, how many degrees would you give that explosion over your shoulder, Doom Ops?

Did someone turn down the heat suddenly? Talk about a frosty reception...

As frosty as the ice block in the collection of coloured clipart? Anyone who order the items in the order of the rainbow, or alphabetically, or almost any other way which made sense earned one point for each. But four points were up for grabs if anyone noticed the first letter of each object could spell ROYGBIV, and ordered them accordingly. The heat is low because we rely on shoddy Actors to show up and generate it by making pointless posts in Challenges, but they can't even do that on time ![:rolleyes](https://i.imgur.com/fJn0ul2.gif) I'd be tempted to fire them all, if I thought the flames would burn through the night.
