Snailvivor [Challenge 15]

[ジュナイパー]

Even if you won Escargot, your entries for letter C, M, N, Q, and V dont count as you have words that don't start with that letter :x

So, your saying I can't use the word the? >_>

 

[NightKrow]

Noooooooo!

 

[Abby]

Yep... I discussed that and they said it still counted so...

Alliterations are sounds, not letters....

 

[Who's Kiyo?]

As stated by the Oxford English Dictionary and other various sources, it's letters or sounds; but most broaden the scope and simply state sounds because the point of alliteration is the sound pattern it creates, and as we all know the same letter can have various sounds depending on the context and different sets of letters can have the same sound despite being completely different visually.

However this particular exercise was based on the Alphabet, so it depended on the repetition of letters. So sounds did not matter in this case and it was never explicitly stated in the OP of this challenge if mundane connectors were acceptable, but seeing as Klippy never said anything against it, they were legal - I assume.

thank you for reading this unnecessary and pedantic post :D

Hm? I haven't read any of your posts since you switched to that font.

Well I think it looks cool.

 

[Charlie Brown]

Well I think it looks cool.

Yes but you also think Team Escargot is the team to beat so I'm not sure if we can really trust your opinion. :/

Klippy did mention we could go by either (and that he was contempalting making it harder by letter-locking the challenge as well, but he never did) in this thread (or skype, can't remember which). :)

 

[Salzorrah]

We should get an award for letter locking ours :x

 

[Who's Kiyo?]

Well I think it looks cool.

It only works if you put it in a div, so what you just wrote appears as courier new to me. :/

Either way it's an homage to me. ;3

Also, I've been using this font for at least week now, I think.

TRIBAL COUNCIL - NIGHT 4​

ESCARGOT...welcome to your second Tribal Council.​

Today was kind of rough on you guys. It seemed like you might keep it even the entire challenge, but you fell behind quickly and wound up too far behind to finish it out.

So I have to ask:

What happened at the challenge? Your team is now on a two-loss streak and things are getting neck-and-neck. Too much momentum against you guys will be trouble.

Who or what is your weakness right now? (Try to keep this civil)

Do you think anyone on your tribe has found the hidden immunity idol?

You must answer these questions. You may submit your vote via PM when you are ready.

[Alex Kaz]

What happened at the challenge?

The main problem is that we are all in different time zones, so we can't all be active at once. This does apply to Saltzen as well, but at a much smaller degree. There were times they were able to keep it going non stop. I'm referring to the last letters, in particular.

Who or what is your weakness right now?

I'm getting tired of your repetitive questions Klippy. The main requirement of this game is being as active as possible. So our weakness is not being as active as we should be (Looking at you Cay). Challenges so far haven't been demanding in any form except for activity, so that's the only variable I'll take into account when voting tonight.

Do you think anyone on your tribe has found the hidden immunity idol?

No idea.

 

[ジュナイパー]

What happened at the challenge?
Just like Alex said, we all live in different time zones. Alex lives in Greece (which is epic by the way), I live in Germany, some people live in North America, and I really don't feel like observing every single one of my teammates profiles just to see where they live, but you've got the idea.

Who or what is your weakness right now?
Uh... Uh... UH... STUFF! Really, like Alex said (I'm not trying to copy him. He just has really good points), inactivity. There were still 3-4 people left to complete our second loop.

Do you think anyone on your tribe has found the hidden immunity idol?
Well, no. Unless if it was Lycan, he did stay out for two rounds, maybe he found it lying around his camp/cottage? I'm sorry, I've never watched Survivor...
