Have some patience.

Me and Idaho would like to mimic Zyzzva's and chia's distribution:


Sustenance

Shelter
5

Defense
4

Pay for Scavenger
5

All right, the following teams are safe for this round

District 98
Bishop County
Cape 95

The other two, you are now prone to attack. Ophiophagus, you can distribute the 6 points you have at any time.

The clues, after a little refining, will be up in an hour.

Anyone else wanna change team names?

[paleonaps]

My team name is now Cape 95.

I'm trying to figure out a way to make the hard clue a little easier, seeing as its interesting but honestly impossible without specific knowledge of the subject.

So, here are the first 2 clues, both simple clues:

Simple 1 (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Specifications
Head Size: 98 sq in
Length: 27 in
Strung Weight: 11.4 ounces
Swingweight: 325
Stiffness 65

To the (commercial building for storing of goods) of tennis you shall go, and there you shall look for what you seek (it should be pretty obvious...).  But fear not for the task is not so tedious, there is always a shortcut, just look around.  Mind your mins and maxes.

Really, you should know what to look for...no hints here, its pretty simple and straightforward.

Simple 2 (Click to Show Hidden Text)

How did Jishnu win the Princess of Panchala's hand in marriage?  Be specific.

[lllazar]

Cape 95 - 10 points
District 98 - 16 points
Bishop County - 17 points

Simple 2 has been answered three times.
Simple 1 has been answered three times.
Hard has been answered twice.

And this is why i format my questions as clues.

These are the PN necessary this round (they will be added to the overall numbers which are one the first post):

Sustenance: 4

Shelter: 4

Defence: 2

Pay for Scavenger: 3

So is scavenger 5 now?
Also, is putting in more PN than necessary beneficial?

[zyzzyva980]

Bad paleonaps! No more hints for you!

[paleonaps]

Bad paleonaps! No more hints for you!

I'd be glad to return the favor!

Eventually it can be yes. Its pretty much based on luck, but putting in more into each may get you certain benefits nearing end game.
