Come on in everyone! Tonight is a very special night. Y'all are about to take part in an iSurv1vor staple. A few ship loads of past players have been through this very same experience. I hope you're ready. On Calico, Captain Jas has selected Nolita & Zach to sit out.
Over the next 24-hours, starting at 8:00pm (EST), both crews will be on the hunt to collect food items while attacking the opposing ship. Collecting food will give your crew XP points, while attacking the opposing ship will deduct XP points.
There are six food up for grabs every hour and three different weapons to attack with per hour. You are looking to scavenge food to increase your crew's XP, and use weapons of attack to decrease the opposing crew's XP. Each crew will start out with 0 XP. The first person (regardless of crew) to post the correct item the fastest will receive the food or attack points.
This challenge is one that will test not only your ability to work as a crew, but also self-govern. Twenty-four hours is a massive amount of time to post, so it is important that if your post doesn't count, it must be deleted because production grades the challenge as it progresses (if we are around). We will be liking only the post that is accepted for each time interval. Once twenty-four hours has passed, the thread will be locked and scores will be finalized.
Back to back posting (ie claiming two items in succession) is permitted, but after two successful posts you must wait until someone else from your crew has claimed a food or attack before you can post again. This is called being 'jailed' where you will be frozen out of the challenge until someone else from your crew claims something.
Crews must only post the images outlined below, any other type of posts are forbidden - if we see it, you'll be penalized. Do not try your luck. No editing posts. To see if you are the closest to the minute, hover your mouse over where it says how long ago you posted (click here for an example) and delete if you aren't the quickest.
That being said, here are your food to scavenge and weapons to attack with!

Now, how this will work in detail, read carefully:
The entire challenge will take place here, below the instructions. Every ten minutes; on the :00 minute, the :10 minute, the :20 minute, the :30 minute, the :40 minute, the :50 minute, six food items will be up for grabs for all competing castaways to claim.
RICE
FRUIT
PASTRIES
FISH
CHEESEBURGER
STEAK
+
3 ATTACKS - CUTLASS, MUSKET, CANNON
The first person (and only the first person) to correctly claim each food item on exactly the :00, :10, :20, :30, :40, :50 minute or closest to it will be accepted. After a full minute has passed, you cannot claim the food item any longer. To claim a food item, or to claim an attack - post the image provided at the correct time. To double-check post times once you and others have posted, locate the timestamp of each post at the top left hand corner. Situate your mouse to hover over the time, and if you do this properly the exact date and time will pop up (including seconds). If you do this to all the posts that were posted for that interval, you can easily find the person who was first to claim.
The one person to post closest to each time gets it.
For attacks (Cutlass, Musket, Cannon), you must successfully post the appropriate attack image at :45, :55, and :05 of each hour. Everyone is free to scavenge for food and attacks.
EXAMPLE
Here’s an overview of how the challenge should play out at a specific time interval;
Livingston posts the Fish image at 9:40:04pm
Bobby posts the Pasties image at 9:40:02pm
Bri posts the Fish image at 9:40:01pm
Julia posts the Cannon Attack image at 9:40:00pm
Velian types Fish at 9:41:00pm
Megan posts Rice but the image link is broken at 9:40:00pm
In this case;
Livingston, albeit the post showed up first in sequence and is correct, it's all about the timestamp. (must be deleted)
Bobby, posted the incorrect food item. (must be deleted)
Bri, correctly posted closest after the :40 mark. (gets the point)
Julia, is first according to timestamp, on minute and second, but attacks during a non-attack interval. (must be deleted)
Velian, posted only text and it is late. (must be deleted)
Megan, posted incorrectly, the image must load properly and have no extra text. (must be deleted)
If no one gets it right on the minute and exact second, the claim will go to the person with the next closest time. If Bri did not post in the example above, the point would go to Livingston. All spam posts must be deleted to avoid -5 penalty on your crew's XP (which will be tabulated throughout). Also, remember that you only have 60 seconds to claim any food or attack. If after 60 seconds, no one has posted that interval is considered dead. No points will be awarded or deducted.
Be advised that this challenge will involve a fair amount of self-governing as Production may not be around to update the spreadsheet. In this circumstance, it is expected for each other on point. It is your responsibility to keep your crew in check - please help aid Production in ensuring this challenge goes off without a hitch.
The goal of this challenge is to be the crew with the most XP at the end of 24-hours. I'll be seeing the losers at Tribal Council.
The first item will be available at 8:00pm EST.
