Title: Picking up the Scent
Post by: Cheddar on June 28, 2020, 09:52:46 am

Making a thread for me to post my idol hunting thoughts. I have not picked up the scent at all yet btw.

Leads:
- The Game # is 20190906 - September 9th 2019.  I looked for a forum calendar and it doesn't exist. But this is the day the forum was created by Joss I believe. I think that has to be the only significance. I think this lead is cold.
- The Badge. In the badge, outwit, outplay, and outlast have a flipped order to outwit, outlast, and outplay.  This could be signifcant somehow.

“ All items used will be exhausted and n emergency challenge will be played to determine immunity“

An A is missing here! This may be something if I can keep finding missing letters!

"If intentional cheating occurs, you will punished accordingly."

There should be a "be" here.

a b e

(Also watch none of this be idol related and I'm just roasting the mods' grammar)

"We expect the very best from these special units; failure here is not an option. We expect you to apply yourself and solve these cases. Who knows, you might even make sergeant!"

Something about this quote just feels like it'll have something relevant.

You have passed the Sergeant's exam and earned your stripes!  You may activate these during a Tribal Council as if they were a hidden immunity idol. Post in your voting thread that you are activating them, and all votes cast for you will not count.

This item can only be used once. This item expires at F5.

Also for context specs, I had asked Lennie Briscoe if they were given idol clues when they won the challenge on the other tribe. He told me they didn’t but the link in the sign ups was a logic puzzle and he thinks that’s the one that Paul got. I expressed disappointment and assumed I’d missed my chance.

Lucky for me I LOVE logic puzzles so I did it for fun and here we are

In reading the wording I’d like to clarify. Can I still play this on someone else if I chose to?

Uh the wording does indeed imply no but that's an oversight caused by flavor reasons. Yes, it is a standard immunity idol in all respects.
