The one spot in the strat I see where flood control could be an issue is the page 15 variation where Duke is the only one quoting our correct numbers. Smanthony and I should both be watching on that page for Duke's quote posts and go ahead and quote M. Gustave and Suzy's scoring numbers if they come immediately after Duke has posted.

Duke · « **Reply #226 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:02:14 am »

Good spot! Agreed, that makes sense.

Richie Tenenbaum · « **Reply #227 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:02:48 am »

I'll also be trying to monitor what the other tribe is doing because my best sniping opportunities are going to be if they've got assigned quoters hitting the flood control

Richie Tenenbaum · « **Reply #228 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:03:53 am »

If I'm not mistaken, our non-participants are still allowed to comment in our tribal threads with strategy right? So anyone else who is here during the challenge can take notes here if they notice a pattern in the other tribe's activity on the scoring pages.

That’s right, they just can’t post in the challenge thread, but they can comment here.

If the challenge is still going in 2 hours I can take a look, however I will be at work until then and I can’t be on my phone at work.

You all are smart and I trust you. I don’t have anything to contribute beyond what has been said which is why I’ve been a tad quieter this round. If it’s still going and I notice anything by the time I’m around I will be sure to post it!

Thanks Oracle, but if this live challenge takes two hours something has gone terribly wrong

Anthony Adams · « **Reply #232 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:15:22 am »

A stalemate on who will get the last post on page 9 could be theoretically possible, no? :P

Richie Tenenbaum · « **Reply #233 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:16:47 am »

That's true, being the final post on a page preceding a score page is a disadvantage because of the 10 second flood control

M. Gustave · « **Reply #234 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:17:32 am »

that's when we coordinate a two-pronged (or three-pronged) simultaneous post. gotta get that bonus point!

Anthony Adams · « **Reply #235 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:18:13 am »

Also, we want the quoters to have a post lined up

Duke · « **Reply #236 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:19:29 am »

So we're playing Gustave, Suzy, Duke, Sam, and Richie, correct?

Sam Shakusky · « **Reply #237 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:21:48 am »

I believe so.

I plan to try to quote stuff and will add up the digits of whatever I see since that's gonna be faster for me than trying to memorize the numbers.

M. Gustave · « **Reply #238 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:23:12 am »

yes, assuming sam finished his dinner. who's shadowing who?

@sam: on page 10 we'll be posting only multiples of 3, so you can quote any of them. pages 15 and 20 we'll be mixing it up, but the any time the 4th digit is a 4 or a 5, it is correct.

Sam Shakusky · « **Reply #239 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:25:05 am »

Okay.

@Anthony if you're still here do you want to be on score counting duty? If we're significantly ahead going into page 20 we may want to just all spam bad numbers.

Duke · « **Reply #240 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:25:14 am »

Strategy overview:

Gustave: Poster
Suzy: Poster
Duke: Quoter
Sam: Quoter (page 10), Sniper (page 15, 20)
Richie: Sniper

ON PAGE 10
All posts made by Suzy and Gustave will be multiples of 3
Duke shadows Gustave, Sam shadows Suzy (constantly refresh and immediately quote if you see the person you are shadowing post. Do not do anything else)
Posters should wait until 10s after their quoter has posted to post again
Richie attempts to snipe enemy numbers which are divisible by 3

ON PAGE 15
Only numbers with a 4 or a 5 as the 4th digit will be divisible by 3; Suzy and Gustave will post these, Duke will quote
Sam switches to Sniping, Sam and Richie attempt to snipe the other side's posts when divisible by 3. If Duke has posted recently and a friendly number comes up, please take it too!

ON PAGE 20
see page 15

All throughout - whenever it's not close to being the next contested page (say, if we're on page 16 or such) check in on this thread and discuss.

Richie Tenenbaum · « **Reply #241 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:26:43 am »

That's a good idea Sam, if we take a lead into the final page we can win just by finishing the page as fast as possible

Duke · « **Reply #242 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:27:00 am »

We need a list of bad numbers still... That's quite important for the posters!

Suzy Bishop · « **Reply #243 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:29:02 am »

I posted a few bad numbers and will be formulating some more.

Duke · « **Reply #244 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:29:25 am »

Thank you!

Duke · « **Reply #245 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:29:52 am »

Meanwhile it's go time... probably have a while til it reaches page 10 but on yer marks, all :D

Duke · « **Reply #246 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:31:32 am »

Oh man, is there any way to bypass the 'while you were typing a new reply was posted' thing? I hadn't considered that!

Anthony Adams · « **Reply #247 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:32:21 am »

Create an alt account :P

Don't do that

Richie Tenenbaum · « **Reply #248 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:32:48 am »

I don't think there is Duke I'm looking now too

Duke · « **Reply #249 on:** September 08, 2021, 08:33:30 am »

I guess we just gotta mash through on that front

Congratulations…
