Just so we're all on the same page about tomorrow, be ready to head to the CHALLENGE DOJO section of the board at 8:30pm CENTRAL tomorrow, Sunday evening. All challenge instructions will be in there. We will ALWAYS use Central as a reference for all activity here. If there's any confusion about the time difference from where you're located, here's a link: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/cust...namerica&sort=1 AND . . . . MULTIPLE COMMENTS WILL BE COMING IN AT THE SAME TIME DURING OUR CHALLENGES ~ SO GET USED TO REFRESHING THE PAGE. JUST HIT THE F5 KEY OR THE REFRESH BUTTON. Also, just a reminder that you really can't do challenges from your phone. Make sure you're on a laptop, PC, or whatever you have available. But phones just really don't cut it for most challenges. And to help our challenges run efficiently, if you have a conflict come up and can't be online for a challenge, please don't try to "peek in" out of curiosity from your phone until maybe 20 minutes after the challenge start time. Reason being, if you're online, I will assume that you'll be playing in the challenge. And if we already know you have to miss and then you suddenly show up from your phone or something, it can throw a wrench in the challenge plan. But you ALWAYS need to plan to be NOT ON A PHONE when playing in any challenge. Various functions just won't work unless you're logged in from a laptop or PC. (And the following was in that "IMPORTANT INFO" message I sent each of you, but here's a reminder since you'll definitely need to be used to this throughout the game . . .) The board is set to have 15 posts per page. On any forum that reaches more than that, it spills over to the next page. So, get used to navigating around here as challenges will have multiple pages. Look way down at the bottom left where you will see the links to each page. Make sure you're on the highest numbered page during challenges. (It will NOT automatically move you over.) The same page number links can also be seen up towards the top between the big logo and the board. Or you can click on the link by the numbers that says PAGES. Clicking on that will bring up a box where you can type in the page number you're wanting to go to. (For any questions about how to navigate through pages ~ the photos included in that message I sent each of you at the beginning of the game entitled "IMPORTANT INFO FROM BROBST"* should be a major help with any of this. I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO RE-READ EVERYTHING IN THAT MESSAGE IF YOU'RE HAVING ANY ISSUES.)* TECH STUFF: Yes, from time to time, different servers associated with this site might have temporary issues where you can't seem to refresh or access anything here. This shouldn't happen often, but of course with Murphy's Law, it could take place at a bad time including challenges. If you can't refresh the board..... pull up another tab & go to a Google page or Yahoo or whatever. If you can refresh just fine there but not here, then it's just a temporary server issue and we have to wait it out. And if it's happening for you, it is happening for me and everyone else. Shouldn't take more than about 5 minutes or so to sort itself out. (I've seen it take longer, but that's very rare.) So, if it ever happens during a challenge or whatever, don't panic. We may just have to stall several minutes until it's back up and running. No worries. You can save this link if you'd like to check when it's back online: http://tachyondecay.net/php/bin/serverstatus.php?zb (WE'RE ON SERVER 13 DOWN AT THE BOTTOM. IF IT EVER SHOWS A RED X, THEN WE HAVE TO WAIT IT OUT. YOU CAN REFRESH THAT PAGE AND IT WILL CLEARLY SHOW WHEN IT'S BACK ONLINE.) NO NEED TO SUBSCRIBE: .....to any topic here. All it does is send an email each time anyone replies to that topic. And it's sent to the email that's registered to every player........ which is mine. So, there's no reason to click on "Track This Topic." Thanks. INBOX/PMs: Also, everyone's inbox will be turned off at our challenge start time tomorrow. You won't have access to PMs during challenges, so wrap up any messages you're working on before then. Your inboxes will open back up sometime after the challenge has completed. Immediately after any challenge has ended, we will head straight to Tribal Council. You will NOT have PMs on during our Tribal Council discussion. But you WILL have PMs on before you cast your vote, which is usually a 15-minute period immediately after our brief Tribal Council discussion......... and a very clear deadline will be given for you to get your vote in by placing a new REPLY* (NOT a new topic) in your private Voting Booth thread in your Confessional. Definitely helps me to know that everyone saw this, so humor me and post here so I know we're all on the same page, thanks. See ya soon, Brobst P.S. Make sure you keep an eye on your Confessionals. The more you update it, the more questions I tend to have for ya about the game and your strategy. And if you haven't made use of your Confessional yet . . . . . the round is ending very soon.
