The situation surrounding the bonus Copellias has been resolved. Scores stand as released, and here's chapter 8 and 9, with a PS from the judges at the bottom. Comments welcome:
1525 Amari Michi, Miyato, mouse
1585 Okabe Honzo, Usui, frog
1645 Matsuno Okura, Nakai, cat
1705 Yamasaki, Niwa, dragon
1765 Hori Takesi, Funai, rooster
1825 Sama Takako, Toyagi, dog
The missing construction year (1765) was solvable from CLue 2, as well as the pattern, since it listed the 120 year gap between Nakai (cat) and Funai.
Full points (1000) to: Chimeriad Fallen Angels Galactic Misfits Jalapenos Organized Chaos Squirrel Tales Steve Traveler
I have no submission in my box from Reaver. If you did submit, please let me know.
Chapter 9 was judged on both the potion portion, which had specific criteria, and also the RP framework, which was more subjective, but still had guidelines of presentation of potion recipes, ingredients for potions, individual partcipation, and that elusive sense of being "in the storyline."
Critera for potions: "For the potions, you may use any and all ingredients found on Subeta. Deduce what is in Djoni and Lysandra's potions and what effects each has, what potion could have been given to the one human "ringer doll" of the fake Coppelias, and what would be the antidote for her."
Full potion (1000) points to:
Chimeriad, Fallen Angels, Galactic Misfites, Jalapenos, Organized Chaos, Squirrel Tales, Steve, Traveler
Scaled RP points:
1500: Chimeriad: Great presentation of individual characters, especially with the length requirement. Jalapenos: Best integration of potions into RP, and hilarious! Organized Chaos: Also an alchemical wonder, with integrated RP. Squirrel Tales: Best alchemically sound recipes Steve: The best "in the story" RP entry, with a real feeling of "to be continued"
1000: Fallen Angels, assignment by leader instead of individual's choices, potions just listed, but alchemically sound. Galactic Misfits, good presentation of both RP and potions too brief to reach the "storyline" feeling Traveler, Hilarious potion "recipes," but RP too abrupt to "flesh out" the individual characters.
Please remember that a partial score this high is indicative of an excellent entry! (It really should be 750, but they thought these entries were too good for that!)
No submission from Reaver for any of the portions.
Ahhhhh we strive for Hilarious. :D Our work here is done.
Organized Chaos has submitted a dated chat log showing the correct solution to the logic puzzle from Ichigo777, so they have been added to the full point completed list.
yeah! :D so glad for them :D
WOW! nice game play everyone!!! ❤

Oh, thank you for such a detailed scoring break down with the comments - I love the feedback presented. <3 Congrats to all the teams for scoring so well!
Also, congrats for team Steve, I think we rock (and I am definitely not biased)! ;) <3
