This challenge is called “Mountain Climber” and here’s how it works.
I will say *BLOWS HORN* at 3 points in this competition.
The first time will be to begin the challenge.
The next time will be 5 minutes after that.
And the third and final time will be 45 minutes after the second horn is blown, 50 minutes after the first horn.
Here’s what you do during that time.
——
During the 5 minute period to start the challenge between the first and second horn, you are at the base of the hill and can load up your backpack. You can do this by putting rocks into your bag, or booking a checkpoint.
To book a checkpoint, say *books checkpoint* as many times as you want during the 5 minute period.
To grab a rock, say *places rock in bag* as many times as you want during the 5 minute period.
You can only load up a combined total of 15 rocks/checkpoints.
When you’re done loading up, say *zips up bag*. If you don’t zip your bag up by the second horn, you are eliminated from the challenge. You also can not zip up your bag without at least 1 checkpoint and 1 rock.
——
On the second horn, you may begin your trek by saying *Starts Up Mountain*. You must wait your assigned wait period between this and the first checkpoint.
For each checkpoint you accept, you must post *grabs ticket from checkpoint* one time during the 45 minute duration of the challenge.
For every rock you grab, you must WAIT 1 minute between each post. So for example, if I grab 5 rocks, I must wait 5 minutes after saying *grabs ticket from checkpoint* each time. You also must wait this period after *Starts Up Mountain*.
After the final checkpoint, no need to wait, you can just say *arrives at top of mountain*.
Anyone who arrives before I say *BLOWS HORN* for the third and final time is eligible to win the challenge, and will get a score. That score will be determined by (the amount of checkpoints) X (the amount of rocks). In the event of a tie on this front, the winner will be whoever visited more checkpoints. In the event of a tie on THIS front, whoever arrived at the top of the mountain first wins.
If nobody (or nobody on the team) arrives at the top of the mountain in 45 minutes, whoever arrives first will win.
Whoever does the best overall wins the deciding 1st/2nd life shield, whoever does the best on the other team wins the other life shield.
See y’all for this @ 8 EST
