Welcome to your next challenge, Hot Potato.
In this challenge, you will participate individually working towards a team win.
In the field are 2 balls, a GREEN ball and a GOLD ball.
To begin the challenge the balls are up for grabs. One player per team can grab their colored ball and will then be able to pass the ball to any player no matter what team they are on.
When a player is passed a ball they earn ONE PENALTY POINT. That player can then pass the ball to anyone else who does not have a ball. This trend continues as long as the challenge runs with penalty points earned for being in possession of a ball.
The trick is that if after a player is passed the ball, if they do not pass it to someone within ONE HOUR of the post where they received it then they earn THREE ADDITIONAL PENALTY POINTS and they drop the ball automatically meaning ANYONE can pick up the ball and pass it.
To be clear you do NOT need to wait for me to say someone dropped the ball, as long as the post of you picking up the ball is at least 1 hour apart from a player being passed the ball then you are good.
Players pick up the ball by posting:
PICKS UP (COLOR) BALL
Players pass the ball by posting:
PASSES (COLOR) BALL TO (EXACT PLAYER'S USERNAME)
As always spelling counts, capitalization does not.
To be clear, you do NOT want the ball and it will all happen in this thread so it will be up to you to keep track of who has the balls.
The total penalty points earned by a team will be divided by the number of players on the team and whichever team has the SMALLEST average (held the ball the least) will win this challenge and be safe from elimination and that Team's Captain will become the Paymaster for the round.
The team that loses will face the Vault to decide who will be up for Elimination but the losing Team Captain will NOT participate and will automatically be 1 of the 3 up for elimination.
Good luck.
