The more chance we can take out of this, the less likely it is that I'll mess things up. I can get behind taking turns as long as I know what my role is. Being a quote person would probably help.

We should assign an order than, I don't mind going first or being person "A" rather

I am also available for this!

Klaus Daimler · « **Reply #27 on:** September 08, 2021, 06:46:02 am »

The challenge says "two allowable posts".. Does that mean we can just increment by 3 until we reach near a new page and then all quote?

The challenge says "two allowable posts".. Does that mean we can just increment by 3 until we reach near a new page and then all quote?

The allowed type of posts are numbers and quoting. What you describe is ALLOWED; however, to earn points the multiple of 3 will have to be posted on page 10 and then also quoted on page 10, or posted on page 15 and also quoted on page 15, etc. Quoting a multiple of three from a previous page is a neutral move (+0), just like quoting a multiple of 3 that someone already quoted.

Margot Tenenbaum · « **Reply #30 on:** September 08, 2021, 07:00:21 am »

To clarify, only the first post or quote of a multiple of 3 will award points, and only if it's on one of the pages for that round? You can't post 9 on page 9 and then post 9 on page 10 and have that be awarded points?

Steve Zissou · « **Reply #31 on:** September 08, 2021, 07:09:44 am »

I want to cry right now. Thank you so much for everyone who stepped up for this challenge. Today has been so busy and I don't feel well on top of it.

You can repeat the same number all you want. You could do the whole challenge solely using the number 3. As long as your are the first to quote a particular post from page 10 onto page 10, etc, you will earn points.

Buckley · « **Reply #33 on:** September 08, 2021, 07:46:29 am »

I'm on phone now, will be at a computer when challenge starts

A helpful way of thinking about the challenge might be this: our goal is to quote more scoring posts than the other tribe on pages 10, 15, and 20. There are 36 points up for grabs on each page. So we need to aim for 18 or more on each page to try and beat the other tribe.
Dont know if that helps! Just in terms of what we have to aim for etc

Buckley · « **Reply #34 on:** September 08, 2021, 07:49:06 am »

The 1 extra point we get for getting pagetop on page 10 is more valuable than it looks too I think. It's essentially a tiebreaker. Maybe when we're approaching Page 10,we can slow down a bit, and then all post together as soon as we see that there are 4-5 posts left before Page 10?

Peter Whitman · « **Reply #35 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:11:33 am »

I like that idea

Buckley · « **Reply #36 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:13:02 am »

it could also give us some breather time to get ready for that first page where scoring matters.

Margot Tenenbaum · « **Reply #37 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:16:24 am »

Sounds good to me!

Margot Tenenbaum · « **Reply #38 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:17:59 am »

So we have:

Buckley
Klaus
Me
Peter
Max?

competing

right?

Peter Whitman · « **Reply #39 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:18:52 am »

so what i'm hearing is 1-half of 9. just post 3 to get to page 10.

at half of 9, slow down, maybe post 4 as a warning, and then all go at once? then just quote whoever got it on 10? How do we make sure we don't get sniped? do we have an order of who tries to quote first, second so we don't end up sniping each other?

Buckley · « **Reply #40 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:21:16 am »

I could be a person who quotes to score points? I feel like I'd be alright at that

Klaus Daimler · « **Reply #41 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:22:31 am »

we could post really high numbers that are multiples of three

and we could assign people to give fake ones if we think they're going to the offensive to snipe us.

Buckley · « **Reply #42 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:23:55 am »

We might want to pair up, and then have the odd one out be a sort of 'all-rounder'/there to catch anything they see basically.
Margot you said you were good to be a person who posts numbers? We could pair up if you wanted

Peter Whitman · « **Reply #45 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:25:07 am »

we could quote 4 and page 10 and still get points. the post numbers matter for the +3 and -3

if we trick them into quoting a multiple of 4 or something it matters

we could quote 4 and page 10 and still get points. the post numbers matter for the +3 and -3

oh shit I thought the post numbers didn't matter at all

we could post really high numbers that are multiples of three

and we could assign people to give fake ones if we think they're going to the offensive to snipe us.
it's more-so to make them second guess it's a multiple of 3

numbers dont matter

Congratulations…
