33%, almost there for speed boost. Everyone get ready for massive food hunting!

Omggg thank you for the sticker!! cherishes it

And to everyone I haven't responded to: you're welcome and please enjoy your new bean friend!!

Good weather again

Speed boost is almost active, so be ready to hunt.

I just want to finish ;~;

More sunshine! lol They're definitely going to be adjusting the weather obstacles the next leg. XD

Oh poop, I'll be away from the office during the time the speed boost is going to end up being active :(

Wait, why is everyone surprised by our good weather? We're supposed to cuz we have Esther..?

I can't imagine traveling through a desert like that. Like, at least in the jungle you get some shade.

Yeah they're definitely going to have to do something. Even if we only won by a small amount it would be okay, but right now we're like 20% higher than the previous winning margins of like 5-7%.

I hope not ours since it seems pretty reasonable with Esther, but dang I feel bad for Gold with all the freakin' wind. I kind of hoped they got more bad weather since we had Ester, but like, MONSOONS. not friggun wind. And heck, not even this much!

It wasn't too bad. We were doing a pioneer reenactment but we kept things like modern tubs of water to stay hydrated. The worst thing is that since we had to pull the handcart, it was exhausting. The first time I did it, on the first day, our leaders got lost and we didn't make camp until like 11 when it was supposed to be like 8 or 9 or something and I felt like a robot zombie pulling that stupid cart. Just like now, it's getting to talk to all the cool people on the journey with you that makes it really fun! Btw thank you for that MAJESTIC BEAST.

We've been getting a lot of weather too, I notice. It's all good, of course, but maybe all this wind and terrible weather Gold is experiencing would be the same kind of wind and weather we would have gotten had we not had Esther along.

You know?

That's a good point, and there were times when it felt like we were getting bombarded by bad wither (wind and monsoons back to back) in the previous legs. They may still have to make some adjustments to how often the weather obstacles come up though, since it's affecting it a whole lot with this good weather boon.

True, but then Esther's perk is really unbalanced.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the next NPC drive isn't just for one team. Maybe it's like "you need to placate the trickster otherwise you will encounter twice as many obstacles as usual" so we all have to work together.

Totally not going to happen, but I'm still hoping lol

I didn't expect it to be quite this unbalanced either. I kinda feel bad.

I hope this next challenge isn't donation drive. Watch me say that and it's something like the sudoku game, which I suck at. xD

I LOVE SUDOKU. I would kick ass at that but it's really time consuming.

If we have even a slim shot at winning, I'll be up late tonight trying to help. But I really don't have a lot of hope.

Omg I would die... I'm so bad in desert... situations. xDD Major props to you. And I agree, I've gotten to talk to so many wonderful people through this event!! I'm actually really proud of our team for being concerned about Team Gold, I think it speaks volumes of the kind of folks here.

Also, you're welcome LOL enjoy him!

Boost! Play Survivor!

Speed boost is active! Be sure to hunt to get our food back up!

Just voted for a speed boost, it's already at 33% so I reckon it could kick in any second now.

Oh hi, I just saw this comment on the news post and fucking died, this is the best commentary on the entire plot, thank you very much

I really highly doubt the next event will be questing since there was mention of fragging and we quested because that's what Emma likes to do and we all know that Gold is capable of winning events that don't require EVERY member to participate like the quests did, and I hope for Gold's sake that quests don't come back if there are two more events. When every team member is expected to pull their own weight but half the team won't...that's frustrating. I guess it shouldn't have been so surprising when Saggi was flashing his cash as an incentive and then Blake was saying his team would adventure longer, which at the time sounded like there'd be more work for us...I guess that wouldn't sound appealing to someone who doesn't have time to come online.

I've got to leave for work in 2 minutes, so I won't be here to help during the speed boost.

ALL RIGHT COCKS GUN LET'S RUSTLE UP SOME GRUB
