Re: The Amazing Race
Yes- we are in the middle of a leg. Unfortunately, some people (pointed glance at the slackers) haven't been solving clues like they should.

Re: The Amazing Race
My friend who invented the virtual game recently joined. He asked me to put a good word in for him as the next moderator. His username is Jastrub and I just want the winner of this to consider him.

Re: The Amazing Race
Yeah... we may as well permanently postpone TAR, until some type of break when people actually have time to work on clues.fmtiger124 wrote:yea...um it's kinda of died for a little while since apparently some people (I think it's one or both of pug/lllazar have uber slacked off on their clues)

Re: The Amazing Race
We'll get it back going soon but SOME PEOPLE (see above fmtiger post) have slacked off.

Re: The Amazing Race
I have a suggestion for the next game for the sake of people who don't necessarily have hours at a time to sit down and solve the clues (and yes it does take me that long to solve a round) - why not just have an amount of time to solve the clues, like a few days. That way people who don't make it get cut...and then theres no need for all this hate.
Seriously, when you do Sci Oly (along with math team, which im actually REALLY good at, so i practice a lot), Tennis, and self study 2 APs on top of a homework heavy course load, i hardly get enough time to sleep 8 hours a day. Again, i apologize, but i think this kind of game is best done in the summer, or during any other major break...wow don't i wish i were a freshman again

Re: The Amazing Race
I kind of think we can start a new game. We can get back to this one later if the competitors want. (Please don't kill me Z)

I strongly disagree. Like, completely, one hundred and ten percent disagree.
