In Cold Blood III [Jarrod wins!]

[Marc]

We need 9 more I think, technically if all of ours are right then we've passed but I'm just trying to allow for a few more incase we have any wrong :(

[Marc]

We may have occurred 2 or 3 fails, but I don't know if we have 40/50 songs

[Lee.]

What time does the task finish tonight?

[Marc]

7pm..

There is one song at 0.58 which really really sounds familiar, bugging me

[Lee.]

7pm..

There is one song at 0.58 which really really sounds familiar, bugging me

I know! It sounds sooooo familiar! I'll bet we'll be kicking ourselves!

[Marc]

we still need

Still need:

8. 0.29-0.33:
18. 1.11-1.14:
32. 2.09-2.12:
36. 2.25-2.28:
47. 3.12-3.16:

I got one, and I've PM'ed Kate to post it in here

[Marc]

Oh I got it..

0.59-1.02: Everyday People – Sly & The Family Stone

[Marc]

0.49-0.53 The Song Is Over - The Who

[Marc]

Dead Flowers - The Rolling Stones

[Kate!]

omg Marc, you are a musical genius. I spent a good hour and a half listening and got about 12 I think, but people had most likely already said them, don't think I got any new ones :( Was most happy to get the Fleetwood Mac one, love them.

[Marc]

The Beatles - Baby You're A Rich Man

[Kate!]

Ladyhawke - Professional Suicide

(oh the irony of posting a song about death :shocked:)

[Marc]

So now we have only got 4 left to get

I'm happy to leave it at it is now!

Just waiting for Kate to post the one I PM'ed her and we can call this task finished!

[Marc]

Okay she has sent hers.

We don't need to bother guessing any more, we have 46/50 answers. I don't think we've incurred 5 fails. We should be alright *crosses fingers*

[Kate!]

Well done Marc, good leadership on this task :D

(being a creep cos I don't want to get killed :D)

Seriously though, good stuff.

[Samuel.]

:worship:

Didn't think we'd pass this, some of those clips sounded so obscure. But it looks like we're headed for a third consecutive win.

I feel bad for whoever's team leader next, Shaun'll be trying his hardest for us to incur our first loss.

[Marc]

I hope we pass. Don't wanna die

[Josy]

Have all the ones we have been posted then?

[Marc]

Yes. we need 4 more, but we'll leave those because they're too hard. We have 46 posted somewhere between page 105-111

[Marc]

I've checked and double checked.. should have done it

[Marc]

46 not 36

[Kate!]

What time is the death?

[Shaun]

There's no death tonight, just the task results at just after 8.

[Kate!]

There's no death tonight, just the task results at just after 8.

oh, ok then :)

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Sorry I had a lecture

Glad to see we have done well

[Shaun]

yes, yes I am too :idc:

[Lee.]

I'll be at work at 8. Good luck everyone.. I'll try and sneak on at some point to see how we did :)

[MTVN]

I hope you failed :idc:

Yay we passed

[Josy]

Oh we passed!!!!!!!!! well done all, and good job Marc.

[Shaun]

Oh did you? Oh well well done. Yeah I'm not finished :idc:

[Doogle]

Well done everyone!

Thanks Marc, I think we owe you a bit for this, good leadership skills. :D

[Shaun]

*ahem*
HOWEVER, there was one detective who failed to post the name of a song that hadn't already been discovered:

Robyn-Hang With Me
Lily Allen-The Fear
Firework-Katy Perry
Promiscious-Nelly Furtado feat. Timbaland

All I know. :) I can always tell a song from the beginning, but I don't know much music. :( /mess

The only song that *Kate* has posted was:

Robyn - Hang with Me

You'll also notice that the post was edited by Marc, so had he even edited in a song that wasn't already identified, I'd have failed you all for foul play :idc: You all had individual responsibilities, and to be quite honest, it's a misuse of moderator powers. Shame on you :hmph:

Marc, since you'll be facing Isolation, please PM me the name of just ONE other contestant to join you.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Oh no what a shame

[Samuel.]

As long as we got 40 right, how many we got wrong doesn't matter. I think.

[Josy]

:bawling:

[Samuel.]

Oh wait. Nvm.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Ah we did our best, good job everyone

[Black Dagger]

Shaun's got feisty... oh how I lurve it.

[Marc]

:suspect: But I changed it back to what she originally had. Then she posted a new song.

Ladyhawke - Professional Suicide

(oh the irony of posting a song about death :shocked:)



And I also undeleted all the posts from last night because I didn't want them to lead us to failing.

[Doogle]

Ah ****. Sorry Marc! :/

That's sorta my fault in a way for putting it in the first place and not keeping them to myself. Although I was the only one who knew the Robyn one :D

But yeah I understand if you pick me. :/

[Doogle]

Ah ****. Sorry Marc! :/

That's sorta my fault in a way for putting it in the first place and not keeping them to myself. Although I was the only one who knew the Robyn one :D

[Samuel.]

Ladyhawke - Professional Suicide

(oh the irony of posting a song about death :shocked:)

What about this ^

[Marc]

It wont matter who I take with me to Isolation, I'm gonna die anyway lol

I am quite interested to see my backstory though :laugh:

[MTVN]

http://guildwars.incgamers.com/forums/images/smilies/large/smiley_smug.gif

[Marc]

Matt MOD powers got you executed as well :idc: I won't point the blame but you were spotted PMing :laugh:

[Shaun]

:suspect: well that's somehow escaped my attention. Well the editing point still stands :tongue:

[MTVN]

Matt MOD powers got you executed as well :idc: I won't point the blame but you were spotted PMing :laugh:

Oh for God's sake I was thinking that might happen :bored: not really a very fair way for me to get caught :hmph:

[Samuel.]

Matt MOD powers got you executed as well :idc: I won't point the blame but you were spotted PMing :laugh:

D:

Tis a bit unfair.

[Shaun]

if that's genuinely how MTVN was found out and that information was passed around then I really don't see the point in continuing this game.

[Marc]

:suspect: well that's somehow escaped my attention. Well the editing point still stands :tongue:

Fair enough, I did panic and edited her post, but then I gave her a new song that I found the answer to and edited it back to the original. I would have edited back anyway. Wasn't fair

[Samuel.]

So mods can see who we're PM'ing? :suspect:

[MTVN]

So mods can see who we're PM'ing? :suspect:

Yeah we can, I didn't realise that until I became a Mod and did think that it might give us an unfair advantage, but I thought it'd be quite unlucky to actually get seen PMing Shaun

[Marc]

If it helps, I thought you were the murderer anyway

[Benjamin]

Yeah we can, I didn't realise that until I became a Mod and did think that it might give us an unfair advantage, but I thought it'd be quite unlucky to actually get seen PMing Shaun

Should have used MSN/facebook. :laugh:

[Shaun]

Whilst this incredibly frustrating it does leave you and the other moderator-players at an equal disadvantage: now that the other players are aware of this advantage they might as well get rid of you before you misuse it again ;)

Once I've got the PM I'll go ahead with the fifth murder tomorrow.

[MTVN]

If it helps, I thought you were the murderer anyway

:suspect:

Should have used MSN/facebook. :laugh:

Well I don't talk to people off site, and didn't think it'd be necessary anyway :laugh:

[Tom4784]

Meh, I haven't got the patience to watch people's status, All of my mod powers with the exception of infractions and banning are rarely used :laugh:

[Benjamin]

:suspect:



Well I don't talk to people off site, and didn't think it'd be necessary anyway :laugh:

One thing I have learnt is that during games many members become very strategic and attentive to details. :laugh:

[Marc]

I don't even infract people :laugh:

[Doogle]

If I was the murderer I'd probably ask to speak to Shaun off-site a bit when needed just to avoid suspicion. :joker:

[MTVN]

One thing I have learnt is that during games many members become very strategic and attentive to details. :laugh:

Yes I will remember that :suspect: I can see myself waiting up till 5 in the morning in games now just to send PM's so that I'm the only Mod online :laugh:

[Kate!]

Oh my actual God! I posted a second song, as Sam has pointed out, therefore we all got our required one point, and scored more than 40 so how did we not pass? Throws toys out of pram and screams.

[Marc]

In the case of me actually having to send somebody to isolation.. is there anybody who wants to come with me? :laugh: because it doesn't matter who comes with me cos I'm gonna die :joker:

[Marc]

who wants the buzz of isolation :devil:

[Jarrod]

I feel so bad that i couldn't help :(

[Samuel.]

You can take me. I don't mind dying after this mod/PM revelation :idc:

[Marc]

Okay I picked you.

Wanted to do it fairly after my 'cheating' in the task.

I wonder how I'll be killed... :suspect: I hope Shaun picks the gruesome one for me :D

[Brother Leon]

Samuel..........................so brave

http://dewjiblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/crying-man-11.jpg

[Kate!]

I will be very sad to see either of you go.

[Shaun]

Bitch first you do the editing shizz and now you take away my spoilers re: Isolation? :suspect: I hope you die :hmph:

As you all already know HARRY/ the two contestants facing Isolation are Marc and Samuel. Could the killer please PM me ASAP (although when nobody's looking :suspect:) the name of the person you want to kill. I'll write up the death tomorrow.

[Marc]

ha2 sorry bubz I just can't seem to do anything right today ah/ ah/

[Lee.]

Aw good luck to you both...

Re the mod/pming thing; I did actually wonder if the mod players could've seen you pming the new killer the other night :suspect:

[Lee.]

In the case of me actually having to send somebody to isolation.. is there anybody who wants to come with me? :laugh: because it doesn't matter who comes with me cos I'm gonna die :joker:

I would have come with you; it could have been fun :evilgrin:

[Kate!]

Aw good luck to you both...

Re the mod/pming thing; I did actually wonder if the mod players could've seen you pming the new killer the other night :suspect:

Even non mods can investigate pms in a way, I have a look at who's on line and if Shaun is messaging, just look who comes up as pm'ing next, when I briefly suspected DTM it was cos I had seen Shaun pm'ing and then DTM right after, then Shaun again, then DTM again, they may have been messaging different people but it does plant the seeds, lol. That was right at the beginning of the game though.....so obviously just a coincidence :hugesmile:

Oh and Good Morning anyone who's about :)

[Tom4784]

Well I can promise you I won't do it, I can barely do IP checks never mind seeing who's PM'ing who. :laugh:

[Black Dagger]

Good luck Marc and Samuel, none of you deserve to go early in the game.

[Kate!]

Good luck Marc and Samuel, none of you deserve to go early in the game.

After failing their first task, Caleb felt a huge deal of responsibility and guilt. Although he would still have had to have sent two others to possible death had he passed, his conduct during the task had fallen into question and left him looking like, as arista might say, a Punk Bitch.

For his failure he was escorted by security to the large grey building at the east wing of the compound:

http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/2895/abandonedoffice.jpg

Cracked windows and metal shutters gave the impression that this had only recently been neglected, which settled Caleb somewhat given the nature of some of the other destinations he'd heard or seen of. He stepped in through the doors underneath the shelter and got his torch out.

[Benjamin]

Good luck Caleb/Marc and Samuel.

[Shaun]

Sam however was taken to the industrial plant directly to the back of Caleb's destination. It was considerably uglier than Caleb's building and was littered with dead leaves and fallen beams - Sam wasn't even entirely sure it was safe to enter, but upon looking back towards the guard he was left with little choice to enter.

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Fzq94YVbHHM/SpQFI4vG0RI/AAAAAAAAg5M/GZBN_jt_EMY/s400/abandoned_industrial_sites_hdr_13.jpg

Inside there was a great deal of complex-looking yet rusty machinery.

http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/4055/machinery.jpg

Taking care to avoid tripping over a broken pipe, Sam took his torch out and began looking for clues.

[Marc]

False hope :idc:

[Shaun]

Since the office he was in was littered with old filing cabinets and desks, Caleb was in the process of routinely opening each drawer he could find, making a mental note of those he had already checked. He could hear nothing nearby, which he took to be a good sign, and was being careful to watch his step should he trigger any unwanted booby traps.

In the far right corner of the first floor Caleb noticed a safe.

http://www.gamingrepublic.org/rjhalvorson/images/office_reference.jpg

It was already open, and cautiously, Caleb approached it. Inside was a single sheet of paper, with bright red writing.

http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/6338/clue3g.png

[Black Dagger]

Good luck to Marc (Caleb) and Samuel

[Shaun]

The dank, mouldy smell from inside the production floor was foul, and although he didn't exactly know what had been made here, he knew it wasn't of the cosmetic variety. He walked up some stairs and found a narrow walkway that led over the machinery to some control panels - and in the distance he thought he could make out a keychain hanging from one of the knobs.

He walked over the iron walkway and came to the station only to find it was an identity card from one of the former workers. As he picked it up the factory lit up and some of the machines begun to operate, with gears and cogs slowly finding their way back into their routine. As he turned around to see who'd done it, he was bashed in the head with a lead pipe.

Falling to the floor unconscious, Sam was cruelly kicked and shoved by the killer's feet onto the edge of the walkway, and with a final heave he toppled over the side into one of the machines. The killer loitered around for a little to see Sam's body twisted and mangled before walking away whistling.

[Shaun]

Sorry Samuel :( thank you for taking part.

[Doogle]

:O S**t :/

[Benjamin]

Samuel. :sad:


You should never have offered to be put into isolation, that's just asking to be killed.

I was having fun getting to know you as well... =(.

Hope we talk again soon :D.

Well done Marc.

[Marc]

:o why though

[Shaun]

However, I now need a new team leader. You have until 9 to decide, when the task shall be posted. I'll await a PM from DrunkerThanMoses with your decision.

[Samuel.]

Samuel. :sad:


You should never have offered to be put into isolation, that's just asking to be killed.

It's what I wanted.

Ta Shaun for the great game. Good luck y'all.

[Black Dagger]

However, I now need a new team leader. You have until 9 to decide, when the task shall be posted. I'll await a PM from DrunkerThanMoses with your decision.

Anybody overly keen on being leader for the next task?

[DrunkerThanMoses]

I think a female should take lead this time.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

how about Kate?

[Marc]

Sorry Samuel, I was certain it would have been me I promise you that

[Black Dagger]

how about Kate?

Or maybe Lee or Josy.

As long as somebody puts themselves forward I'm happy to go with it :D.

[Doogle]

Any females know they're going to be active? :D

[DrunkerThanMoses]

I would say Kate is the most active... thats why I put her name forward

[Jarrod]

Samuel :( And a team leader... Kate?

[DrunkerThanMoses]

If Kate's not up to it, I don't mind putting myself forward

[Marc]

Im fine with whoever

[Doogle]

Kate, and if she doesn't want to, DTM :)

[Kate!]

I would say Kate is the most active... thats why I put her name forward

I will do it. I can have access to a pc most of tomorrow day and Sat morning if needed. Rest of the time will be on my fone, I will do my absolute best :)

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Okay Ill send of PM to shaun now :)

[Jarrod]

Voice: For your fourth challenge, CSI TiBB, you'll be required to look at a crime scene and test your luck. The crime scene featured in the spoiler below is a lake where last year a murder victim was found. This victim and the crime itself are irrelevant: but the picture has been divided into 88 squares. Each of these squares has a grid reference, going vertically from A to H and horizontally from 1 to 11.

Contestants, in 10 of these squares there was a clue, be it the weapon, the body or some DNA, found. In order to pass this task, since you'd need a decent number of these clues to build a decent case of the crime, you will need to find 8 of the clue-spaces between you.

You will each have 6 attempts to find a clue, meaning that overall you'll be selecting 60 of the 88 spaces. In addition to this, I have been very lovely and identified two of the free spaces, where there are no clues. These are C4 and G7. It would therefore be foolish for any of you to select these two references.

As a team, and under the instructions of Kate, you should work together to make sure that none of you go for the same squares. Should any two or more of you pick a same grid reference then you won't incur any strikes or fails, but you are effectively ruining your chances of passing the task.

The only rules you must adhere to are as follows:
- All 10 of you must submit 6 grid references, via PM to me.
- You may discuss your choices.
- You must collectively pick at least one space from each row and column. This shouldn't be too taxing.

http://i40.tinypic.com/2zrdhdv.png

Keep your eyes peeled and good luck. The task will end at 9pm tomorrow. The team leader will then have a very special responsibility with regard to the outcome of Isolation - I shan't spoil it now, but basically there's a chance that noone will be killed.

(and yes I know it's unlikely that someone would find a clue in the sky but they're still possible locations :hmph:)

[Doogle]

I'll be here in the morning, I have MyMaths work to do in the computer suite during maths but I'll just come on TiBB :joker:

And then I go home at 2 but going round my best mates house to play XBox so I'll be home at 4ish and will be here every day after haha :joker:

[King Gizzard]

I could of sworn I have just seen Doogle trying to set my house on fire.

[Jarrod]

I'm off school xD I shall examine the picture later...

[Doogle]

I could of sworn I have just seen Doogle trying to set my house on fire.

You have a sick obsession with me :hmph:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

You would asume H 1 - 4 is where the body was found

[Josy]

Aww RIP Samuel :hug: and well done for surviving Marc.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Then again the body might of been in the water

[Josy]

So Kate how do you want us to do this?

[Benjamin]

Nice task Shaun. :hugesmile:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Anyone got any ideas?

[DrunkerThanMoses]

A 3 and A 4 can be eliminated right?

[Josy]

Yeah I would think so

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Maybe our first job is to eliminate squares we think are useless and then sort out the remaining squares between the ten of us

[DrunkerThanMoses]

I mean there are possible ways to die

a. The body might be on land, weapon, DNA/blood also on land or in water
b. The body is in the water, with blood, weapon and DNA around the land/water area
c. (Long Shot) The victim could have been thrown from a plane and the body hit the trees in the distance leaving blood

[Kate!]

Right. ok firstly can I ask Shaun to unspoiler the pic, cant view it otherwise.

Next, most of you 2n be online tomorrow I take it?

Could I ask that nobody pm Shaun till
we all have our squares established and I can double check we have no duplicates and that we have fulfilled the criteria of one in each row and column. As each person sends their6 choices to me, whenever you are ready btw, I will plot them on, any doubles and I will send you an alternative reference.

Does this sound ok?

please bear with me for tonight, I will put the bulk of effort in tomorrow and do my damnedest to get us the pass. I will choose my 6 squares last, ok.

so to recap you can all pm me 6 squares when your ready, I will plot them all and pm you back with any changes. then and only then do you pm Shaun. thanks.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Okay Kate :)

[Doogle]

Sounds fine, Kate :)

[DrunkerThanMoses]

between H 2 and H 3 is that blood? or a foot print?

[MeMyselfAndI]

I know who the new killer is:)

[Josy]

I know who the new killer is:)

Keep it to your self then and don't ruin the game :nono:

[Josy]

Sounds good Kate, I will pm mine to you later.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

C4, G7, A3 and A4 all eliminated, only 14 more

[Kate!]

I have drawn up a chart, like a grid for a game of battleships just for me to plot on, anyone want to get the ball rolling by pm ing me 6 squares, or even post them actually, dont think thats against any rule.

someone please post the grid unspoilered?

Had a thought, dont think we can discount ANY squares except c4 and g7 because wherever the body is does not matter, clues could be on it?

I cant see A3 and A4 having any clues on it tbh as its just sky... but you never know

[Shaun]

I did say in the task post that none of the squares were particularly more likely than others to have a clue... I picked the 10 randomly :/

[Black Dagger]

I've read the task description, 12 times and still don't get what we have to do.

Deary me, hopeless =(.

[MeMyselfAndI]

I will keep it to myself dont worry

[Doogle]

This task will be the death of me.

[Josy]

I've read the task description, 12 times and still don't get what we have to do.

Pick six boxes from the grid, obviously not the ones that say free and send the letter/number of them to Kate

[Josy]

Sent you my pm Kate

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Oh i get it now

So if I sent Kate A1 and A2... that would count as a fail because I sent two from the same Letter, vice versa if I did D1 and E1

[Black Dagger]

Oh, that sounds simple enough, like coordinates in a way, I was always good at them :p

[Shaun]

don't tempt fate, Dylan ;)

[Shaun]

Oh i get it now

So if I sent Kate A1 and A2... that would count as a fail because I sent two from the same Letter, vice versa if I did D1 and E1

Nope. You could pick A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 and A6 and that would be fine.

OVERALL though, as in of all of the 60 picks, you have to have picked one from each row and column.

[Doogle]

:laugh2: I only just realised.

I bet I'm going to die now, damn.

Okay so basically Kate I PM you any 6? :D

[Josy]

We should all just send our choices to Kate and then she will make sure we have picked one from each row and column and that none of us have the same ones, then she will let us know when to send Shaun our choices.

[Shaun]

-doesn't see why you can't just save her a workload and post your choices in here-

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Nope. You could pick A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 and A6 and that would be fine.

OVERALL though, as in of all of the 60 picks, you have to have picked one from each row and column.

Oh okay, I sent six to kate anyway

[Kate!]

This task will be the death of me.

I sincerely hope not!

Lucas, it is a game of luck, but with quite good odds in our favour, its a bit like playing battleships, hit or miss. Anyway, dont stress out over it, just send me or post any 6 square references apart from c4 and g7. a-h downwards, 1-11 across ok? dont pm Shaun till I confirm it with you ok. Trust me, I feel quite confident on this task. :)

[DrunkerThanMoses]

C4 B1 E9 H6 F10 A3 are what I picked

[Shaun]

and just to check that you're aware, you do all have to send me your choices via PM yourselves ;) it's not Kate's responsibility :p

[Josy]

I only mentioned sending them to her because she asked us to in her post over the page

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Whats everyone else put as their six?

[Josy]

1 clash now then

[DrunkerThanMoses]

I changed it to A11

[Kate!]

I changed it to A11

Right, am not being funny but am actually a bit pissed off now. I know about the clash and I am on top of it, so can you not make changes because its already been sorted. Just please post your own and then let me co ordinate it, I have a chart and its fine. Will post the final selections with any changes once I have all 9 pms or posts. thanks.

please dont be mad, but let me lead, too many cooks spoil the broth.

and yes, thanks Shaun, everyone knows they have to pm you individually but we aren't doing that bit yet :)

[Tom4784]

g1, h11, d7, f5, b10, e6

[Kate!]

ok, I have choices from 4 people so far.

still waiting on Braden, Dezzy, Marc, Lee and Jarrod to either pm me or post 6 choices from the grid, as I said, any clashes have already been sorted so please dont go changing or we will end up in a muddle. Once I have everyones, I will post them all with any amendments, and we can all pm Shaun. Anyone online who is yet to choose?

[Josy]

Dezzy posted his just before your post Kate, I think thats why DTM was trying to help you out a bit because it does take you a really long time to reply with your phone.

[Kate!]

Thanks Dezzy.

[Kate!]

I know Josy, and its really frustrating on my fone, am so truly sorry if I have upset DTM in anyway whatsoever, as I think a lot of him, just I want to do a good job as team leader and hope for us to pass, and I just felt like whats been the point of me stressing and struggling on my fone to co-ordinate everyones choices and swop any clashes to then I see people with different lists to what I have down for them, only very minor discrepances but it still cocks it up. I hope he understands where I am coming from.

Sorry DTM. :(

[Marc]

I am going to need to pick my squares asap our house Internet has gone and it's not working (it's a fault in the area I think) and I only have my phone working on 3G. I can't even see the map! What is it showing? It loads soooo slowly!

I'm not going to be very contactable tomorrow either as I'm busy with deadlines (literally won't be in the house or near a computer from about 10am onward) so I will just look now at people's choices and try to fit mine around? I'll check up later tomorrow via phone, if Kate can sign mine off as okay I'll PM Shaun asap

[Marc]

Okay I've had a look and I can see big gaps so I'm picking mine to try and remedy it, Kate can you PM me or let me know here if they are suitable?

A7, A8, B7, C7, C8 and C11

They okay? Do they clash?

[Kate!]

Hi Marc. hang on, I'll just nip back downstairs n check my chart. brb.

[King Gizzard]

Marc what has become of you you night owl

[Kate!]

Marc, those 6 are fine, no clash. go ahead and pm them to Shaun, let me know you have seen this please. Thanks. :)

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Morning

Do they differ, oh sorry I just copied and pasted

Btw did you get my message about changing A4 because it didnt notice it was a free square

[Kate!]

Have decided to just stay up, if I go to bed now I wont be seen again till dinnertime :D

Our lists differ because I was amending peoples lists as I received them to get rid of any clashes, but you also changed them, which is why I went a bit crazy! You were being helpful I know, but we have to all be on the same page.

Jarrod, Braden and Lee still to choose.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Sorry again like I said Lucas didn't responded to the clash saying if he was going to change it, I should have PM you with the change.

I have to change C4 to C5 though cause C4 is a free square

[Marc]

I've sent mine now. :) good luck guys, I'm not likely to be around for the most part of the day but I'll check on later via iPhone to see if you need any help, though I will have had a few drinks so I will warn you now :tongue:

[Kate!]

Lucas probs didnt respond cos I asked him to just pick his 6, and leave it with me from there to avoid confusion.

I will be on a pc soon, bear with me :)

[Lee.]

Morning everybody... sorry I wasn't online last night, I was at a party.

Right, I'm going to go and have a catch up and a look at the task... be back in a bit :)

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Ah okay Kate

Morning Lee

[Jarrod]

Morning Guys :) Just examining the picture to choose my squares..

[Kate!]

Morning team, I'm here. Oh god I love being on a pc, I can type properly fast and it's lovely. Phone is stressful lol....

How are we all this snowy morning?

Now without further ado, here is the official fully up to date list with amendments to avoid clashes :)

DTM - A3 B1 C5 E9 F10 H6
MARC - A7 A8 B7 C7 C8 C11
DOOGLE - B4 B6 C2 D10 E11 H3
KATE - A11 D9 F7 G4 G9 H1
LUCAS - A4 E3 E4 E7 H8 H10
JOSY - A5 B9 C3 D6 E10 F2
DEZZY - B10 D7 E6 F5 G1 H11
LEE - A1 A2 B2 C1 D1 D2
BRADEN -
JARROD -

Also, the task rules state that we have to have at least one square in every row and column, so at least one A square, one B square etc, and at least one 1 square, one 2 square and so on. I have checked and we have done this so that's fine :)

Lee, Braden and Jarrod, could you choose your squares when ready (I know Lee is having a look now :)) and cross reference with above list to avoid any duplicates. Thanks everyone, you have all done great with this, and thanks DTM for your efforts especially.

[Jarrod]

B6, f8, h1, h3, e7, e9

[Kate!]

B6, f8, h1, h11, e7, e9

Jarrod, can you check your choices against the list I have posted, we can't have any duplicates. thank you. :)

[Jarrod]

I've just checked and i think they're all okay :)

[Jarrod]

B5, f8, h1, h3, e7, e9 < Changed version

[Kate!]

Jarrod, they aren't ok, 4 of your choices have already been picked by others, see my post above ^

b5 and f8 are ok, the others are duplicates.

[Lee.]

So, I just have to choose 6 squares that nobody else has? Have we not to find clues or summat? :conf:

[Kate!]

So, I just have to choose 6 squares that nobody else has? Have we not to find clues or summat? :conf:

Yes, that's all you have to do :) Ultimately we are aiming to uncover clues with our choices, yes, when we have all picked six different squares we will have covered 60 out of 88 squares and hopefully hit all the clues. Shaun has also given us the two free squares C4 and G7 so we know they are blank :)

That ok Lee? :)

How was your party?

[Lee.]

Ah right, I get it now I think :)

I'll post my squares in a mo...

And yes my party was very good thank you Kate :D I'm beginning to feel all Christmassy and festive a tally :amazed:

If you wont we can just pick six for Bradan and tell him to send it, as we dont know when he will be online, so he might not have time to make six up and send them to shaun

[Kate!]

Brilliant, spot on there Jarrod, send them to Shaun in a pm asap please, and let me know when you have done it. Thank you :)

[Kate!]

That's a great idea, let's go with that :) Do you want to pick, or shall I? Just go where the biggest gaps are maybe? All 7's are taken.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

We have alot of E, F G and H squares left so should we pick from there?

[DrunkerThanMoses]

[Jarrod]

I'm sending them to Shaun now.

[Kate!]

We have alot of E, F G and H squares left so should we pick from there?

Yeah, sounds good to me. B is the fullest row, G seems to be the least chosen so how about a couple from there? Would you like to pm 6 to Braden, I don't know him really? Let me know your choices then I can update the list as well, thanks Jon.

H4 and F8 are Jarrod's, the other choices are fine. How about E2 and F3? They are free.

[Kate!]

Sure Ill send the ones I suggested to Brendan if they are all okay?

Should I also send mine to Shaun?

yes, send yours to Shaun, double check Braden's, 2 of them are Jarrod's choices though, I have suggested alternatives ^

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Okay Ill send G10, G6, F11, G2 E2 and F3 to Braden

[Kate!]

Okay Ill send G10, G6, F11, G2 E2 and F3 to Braden

great, ask him to try and let us know once he has pm'd it to Shaun, if not I will check with Shaun later if he has received it. Have you sent yours?

[DrunkerThanMoses]

He hasent been online in 2 days :(

[Kate!]

He hasent been online in 2 days :(

Braden??? Oh no.....well it won't be a fail if he doesn't manage to take part, just means we lose 6 of our chances to find the clues. Marc said this morning that he would tweet him and remind him, we'll just have to wait and see, bit annoying though, we have worked hard on this. I was up all bloody night :hugesmile::hugesmile:

[Josy]

How we doing? Is it ok to send my pm to Shaun now?

[Lee.]

Morning Josy.. yeah, I'm just about to send mine too :)

[Lee.]

I can confirm that I have now sent my pm to Shaun :)

[Kate!]

Yes Josy, that's great thanks. And thanks Lee also :)

We have done well on the task, see post 2993 ^ for an update. :)

[DrunkerThanMoses]

hopefully everyone sends their answers and we are lucky enough to get the ten right
