alienjenn Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 can a mod please pin? Mini Challenge - #1You are sitting at your desk when someone brings you an envelope and says a messenger delivered this for you to reception. You wonder to yourself who in the world is this kid. There is no clue as to where he is or who he is or even why the letter was delivered to you. You don't know any children by that name and you are very confused. You don't even know where to look for him or her!! Well, your only recourse is to open an investigation. To search for the clues as to how to find him. This week, in order to find this boy zombie, you must search. You can search for him by racking up some miles. They can be any kind of miles (hiking, walking, kayaking, paddle boarding, crawling, swimming, break dancing) but he could be ANYWHERE we have to find him!!! We have to find some clue as to his whereabouts and find out SOMETHING about the zombies that have taken him, I mean WTF are there REAL zombies? You may be this kids only hope! track yourself before you wreck yourself PART TWO (also located later in the thread) IslandGirl_Becks you've run the furthest and you see this in the bush ahead Closer inspection and CAREFUL translating (because apparently young boys write in another language!) messageplease tell my mom Alienjenn that you are looking for me. I am trying to figure out where I am. I am in a castle type building made of stone. I hear the sound of seagulls out the windows. -Zombie Guys this week we have to track down the location of this castle that my son is in! I need you to get as low to the ground as you can to help track him down. ANY kind of exercise where you go low (inch worm, pushups, turkish get ups, plank, bear crawl, wall sit, lunges, squat, dead lift, handstand push up, dips, you name it if it gets you low it counts!) the sheet again and... assume I already said "this is YOUR challenge make it work for you. Scale it in difficulty (up/down whatevs) as need be. This is in ADDITION to your challenge and should not interfere with your 6wc. PLEASE do not hurt yourself!!" [confession... this is one I wrote for someone else to deliver that I am recycling... that's why it's my son not weird at all yes?] I will add this to the first post 9 Quote Level 10.4 Wood-Elf, Ranger - specializing in demon fighting "doing the impossible since 2012 :D" - Librarian of Doom facebook battle log level 50 WOOT Backstory CNF2014 current (not challenge - doing a battle log this time) Spoiler * This is the day the Lord has made, rejoice in it and be glad.

alienjenn Posted March 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 I will TRY to get them up by sun or monday... and we can carry them over through the next challenge... I do NOT have the ability to award stat points (NOT A MOD! ) so we have to see what will happen with that... I work NIGHTS (I am a nurse in intensive care) and sometimes I don't get to the computer for several days at a time... I apologize in advance if I don't get to yout questions... I DO read from my phone daily... so I will try to make sure I hit up the mini challenge thread... I am not a super stickler for rules so just pretend I already said "it's YOUR mini challenge, make it work for you how you have to make it work for you".... I don't care if you have to make it easier or if it's too easy and you want to make it harder... but remember mini challenges are EXTRA and should NOT detract from your 6wc 2 Quote Level 10.4 Wood-Elf, Ranger - specializing in demon fighting "doing the impossible since 2012 :D" - Librarian of Doom facebook battle log level 50 WOOT Backstory CNF2014 current (not challenge - doing a battle log this time) Spoiler * This is the day the Lord has made, rejoice in it and be glad.
