Extensions

2021-07-29T12:54:56Z

Dear members,

I just wanted to let you know that I'll extend all my Challenges.

- Challenge 08 - July 31 (Alaska Time)
- Challenge 10 - July 31 (Alaska Time)
- Challenge 15 - July 30 (GERMAN TIME)
- Challenge 16 - July 31 (Alaska Time)
- Challenge 17 - July 31 (Alaska Time)

Sorry for being that late. Real life was so stressful. :o(

Challenge 21: Luck of the Draw

2021-07-27T19:31:37Z

Description: Feeling lucky? Then let's play a game of chance: pick three cards from a regular card deck. I'll use the randomizer (random-cards.com, specifically for playing cards) to pick three cards as well. You get points based on full and partial matches between both draws.

Requirements:
- decide on three cards from a regular card deck
- make a comment in your team thread using the box below and fill in your chosen cards:

- that's it. You're done.

Points:
- 10 points for picking three cards
+ 5 points per colour match (you pick a red card, the randomizer picks a red card)
+ 5 points per suit match (you pick clubs, the randomizer picks clubs)
+ 5 per number/face match (you pick a king, the randomizer picks a king)
+ 15 for a complete match (you pick the ace of hearts, the randomizer picks the ace of hearts)
+ 1 for sig tag

Due Date: Saturday, July 31, 10 pm Middle European Time (Countdown | Time Converter) - yeah, I've used the same timer as for the crossword challenge since they end at the same time

Challenge 20: TV Show Crossword - With A Twist

2021-07-27T19:12:58Z

Description: Solve the crossword!

Requirements:
- This is the crossword: https://i.imgur.com/p9LT8gm.png

(it's pretty big, so I recommend using a graphics programme to fill it in rather than printing it out)
- For the clues, go to this dropbox folder: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dn1z1u8238i36m9/AACdtMbaOyWchvnmOoJvG3r-a?dl=0
- Listen to the 30 TV Theme songs uploaded there: these are your clues for the crossword. I picked popular shows from various decades that I thought had well-known theme songs. I've uploaded the full theme songs and some of them are ridiculously easy even if you don't watch the show. If you get stuck on a theme, you can always see if you can make an educated guess.
- fill the names of the shows into the crossword field with the corresponding number
- please use a readable font (no cursive/handwriting fonts please); font colour is up to you
- black squares within words are empty spaces between words or hypens
- comments are screened
EDIT: It has been brought to my attention that there might be some confusion with #30 because of the number of blank spaces not equating to the number of letters in the answer. That's true - I didn't think about removing the punctuation before I entered it into the crossword generator, so there are two extra spaces for a comma and an exclamation point. I won't deduct any points if someone gets this particular answer wrong.

Points:
- 1 point for each show you've filled in correctly (30 total)
+ 15 for getting all of them correct
+ 1 for sig tag
- max possible points = 46 points

Due Date: Saturday, July 31, 10 pm Middle European Time (Countdown | Time Converter)

Here's the solution if you want to double check:

Challenge 19: Bubble Shooter

2021-07-26T18:57:22Z

Description: Play Bubble Shooter!

Requirements:
- play the game for participation points
- if the game doesn't load for you, try a different browser or disable your adblock. If it still doesn't work, please contact me. (Don't leave it till the last day, though because I can't promise to be online much that day. If you intend to play on Saturday, do a quick test to see if the game works beforehand!)
- take a screenshot of your high score at the end of the game and submit it in your team thread using the following template:

- you can edit your comment with better scores at any point before to the deadline

Points:
- 15 points for playing
+ 30 points for the highest score
+ 20 points for the second highest score
+ 10 points for the third highest score

Due Date: Saturday, July 31, 9 pm Middle European Time (countdown | time converter)

Challenge 18: Lowest Unique Number

2021-07-26T18:40:22Z

Description: All you have to do is pick a number - any number. The challenge is to pick the lowest unique number - meaning the lowest number that nobody else has picked - without knowing which numbers the other players have picked. If you go for 1, someone else might have picked that, and neither of you will get the winning points. But if everyone picks 3 to be on the safe side, you might just win by boldy picking 1. So consider carefully and make your choice.

Requirements:
- comment with a number between 1 and, idk, five trillion.
- only whole numbers (within the limits above) (meaning you can't pick numbers like 2.3 or 1.00001)
- comments are screened so you won't be able to see other people's numbers (they will be unscreened after the deadline)
- no talking about this in your teams/other players
- no team threads, so please include your team name/sig tag in your comment

Points:
- 10 points for submitting a number
- 20 extra points for the lowest unique number
- 5 extra points for the next highest unique number
+ 1 for sig tag

Due Date: Saturday, July 31, 9 pm Middle European Time (countdown | time converter)

Please note: in order to play too, I picked my number pretty much at the time I put the challenge up. This way I won't see everyone's entries with my comment notifications and can't unfairly pick a number based on what I know. My comment will not be edited.

Guest Host

2021-07-26T18:23:37Z

Good evening everyone,

it's my turn to guest host again, so let's have some fun this week! First challenge will be up later today, so keep an eye out.

Since this is also the last week of cycle 8, all of the deadlines will be short. I'll make sure to get all my challenges up in the next 48 hours.
