You wanna play some word games, or do some experiments on me or anything?
This next examination will test the same senses, perceptions, and skills as the previous one we did with Dudley, but this time, we're removing sound to find out how being without your sense of hearing affects your performance. In Dudley's case, this would completely collapse his results, as in the above image where his task was to make his blocks like like Dr. St. Clair's.
For our challenge, we'll be dealing with something slightly different than the above image. Our challenge will look like this:
Looking at the above board, you'll see there are
three components to each card: Shape, Shape color, Background color
Your task is to find acceptable sets of
three cards. For a set to be acceptable, each of the three components listed above must be either a) all identical, or b) all different. You
can mix and match, or in other words, the shape colors can all be identical, and the shapes themselves be all different, and you are still on track for a valid set.
What you can
not have in your set of three cards is two of any component. Continuing our example of identical shape colors for three different shapes, if the background colors are all the same, we successfully have made a set. If the background colors are all different, we also successfully have made a set. However, if there are
two of the same color, the set is invalid. Similarly, if a set has two of the same shape or two of the same shape color, it is invalid.
Three same: yes
Three different: yes
Two: no!
In the sample image above:
Cards 2, 4, and 6 make a successful set, because all three components are different in each.
Cards 2, 5, and 7 make a successful set, because the background colors are all identical, while the shapes are all different, as are the shape colors.
Cards 1, 3, and 8 make a successful set, because the shapes are all identical, as are the shape colors, while the background colors are all different.
When you start this challenge, you will be shown an image like the one above. Identify the sets you find by using the card numbering shown above. To submit cards 2, 4, and 6 as a set, you will type 246. 642 would also have the same meaning since it identifies the same three cards.
There will be five separate rounds to play.
Correct sets will earn you 1 point. Incorrect sets will lose 1 point.
The player who successfully submits all the available sets in a given round in the least time also earns 2 points.
This means you are incentivized to work quickly to score the 2 bonus points, but if you work too quickly and do not find all the sets present, you will not be eligible for the 2 points. Submitting an incorrect set will not make you ineligible for the 2 points, so long as you successfully find all the sets on the board.
To begin this challenge, you will click
this link and fill out a form. When you submit this form, your time will start immediately and you will be provided a link to a new form with the first game board. When you submit your answers for that form, your time for the first board will conclude, and your time for the second round will immediately begin, with a new link to the next board being provided. This process will continue until all five rounds are completed.
You will have one hour total to complete the entirety of the challenge. Answers submitted after one hour has elapsed will not count.
The player with the most points at the end of the challenge wins immunity. You cannot talk to your fellow tribemates about this challenge.
