Competition Layout

Round 1: Find the Hearts (24 Points)
Round 2: Find the Message (76 Points)
In this part of the competition, teams must find the other team's coloured hearts, and then find the message from the threads of their locations.

Round 2: Find the Message

The Boys Team should find the 8 red, 8 pink and 8 yellow hearts making a total of 24 hearts to find altogether.

The Girls Team should find the 8 green, 8 blue and 8 purple hearts making a total of 24 hearts to find altogether.

http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo177/db1986/Boys_Hearts.jpg

Okay, Just Kidding, Stuff I didnt Realize:
The Boys Team should also find the remaining 4 green, 4 blue and 4 purple hearts.

The Girls Team should also find the remaining 4 red, 4 pink and 4 yellow hearts.


Once you have located a heart, make a note of the post number in which you found it. You do not need to link the post, just the post number will suffice.

Random Note: Hearts Found in this Post, On my Profile (Jen's) in our Sigs (both of ours) or in my profile pic (Jen's) do NOT count towards this competition...those are just there for show :D and plus i like my hearts (Jen)

Once your team has located all 48 hearts, note down the first alpha character of the thread in which you found each heart.
From these 48 letters, you now need to solve the anagram to find the Valentine message.
The anagram layout is as follows: (where slashes separate words)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ' _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ E _ , / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ O _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Two letters have been given for you.

Scoring

Each team will score 1 point per correct post number. (Max Score = 36)
Each team will score 4 point per correct word in the message, and 4 bonus points if the whole message is found. (Max Score = 52)
Therefore the maximum score for Round 2 is 88.

Submitting

All post numbers should be clearly displayed when submitting.
All answers should be submitted by the Team Captains by Saturday 7th February at 12pm at the Team Captain's time. Times and Dates are Subject to Change (Due to our miscalculations as to how long the first round would take)
The Boys Team should submit their answers to db1986.
The Girls Team should submit their answers to jenni939706.
(As You All Should Know, Threads Will Be Made in the Correct Groups for Submissions, and This Time, ONLY the Team Captain Is to Post There Please (Otherwise the answers get jumbled up in Random Comments)


Good luck :razz:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jen's Note: Sorry, I know it was a pain to look for them in the first place...but it should be easier the second time around XD :D

Oh, and db is the one who did all the formatting and typing up for this XD I just added a few notes and typed up names,...choosing captains and whatnot :) so Thank Db Please :D

Another Note :D : If there are some team members that have not shown up at all or posted, please make sure everyone participates, we did NOT make this a team activity so that some people could relax and take credit for any answers or wins :) Plus, I'm sure people want to participate but they're unsure of what to do, so help your team members out please :)

Don't understand the numbers in this...

How many hearts exactly do you want us to find? 24, 4, or 48?


Jen's Note: Sorry, I know it was a pain to look for them in the first place...but it should be easier the second time around XD :D

You're so evil. Sooo evillll, I say.

AND 24 others (8 blue, 8 green, 8 purple)

Boys, You find:

In total there are 48 hearts spread over rounds 1 and 2.
In round 1, each team could find a maximum of 12 hearts, 4 of each of their designated colours.
In round 2, you must find the remaining 4 hearts of each of your team's colours, as well as all 8 of the opposing team's hearts.

Basically, at the end of round 2, each team should find 8 red hearts, 8 pink hearts, 8 yellow hearts, 8 green hearts, 8 blue hearts and 8 purple hearts, making a total of 48.

Hope this helps :)

Edit: Jen beated mehh xD

I see...

OK


Scoring

Each team will score 1 point per correct post number.
Each team will score 4 point per correct word in the message, and 4 bonus points if the whole message is found.
Therefore the maximum score for Round 2 is 76. ...

there are 12 words in the sentence so 12 x 4 points = 48, and 4 bonus points for the message so, 52 points for the sentence.

We have to find 36 hearts in this round (24 from the opposite team and 12 more of our own) and 1 point per heart/post name so 36 points.

This already makes 52 + 36 = 88 points for Round 2, so how is the maximum score only 76?

jenni939706
03-02-2009, 02:35 AM
uh...yeah..let me change that.. XD

Once your team has located all 48 hearts, note down the first alpha character of the thread in which you found each heart.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ' _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ E _ , / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ O _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _


Just to confirm: Do you mean the first letter of the name of the thread, or the first letter of the first post?

Also, is that little "," after the 7th word a comma?

Sorsie

-SCREAMS-

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHH

... You guys... You wait.. we'll have a deebee and jen go trawling through the forum contest next time. :P lolol... mmm.. -breathes deep-

Right. Stupid hearts. So you've added more pink,yellow,etcetc hearts on top of the ones you added? (And you added them recently?)

Lol. They've already done enough trawling while setting up this.

i'm listening to the trainers on the biggest loser yelling at the contestants. this is killing me, but just keep thinking of the poor people trying to lose weight...MOTIVATION! COME ON!!
actually the only difference is they are losing weight by exercising whereas i'm probably gaining weight by sitting in front of the computer...slowly losing my sanity...and my eyesight.... >.<

Saffron
03-02-2009, 10:01 AM
awww, saff XD come on :P i actually had fun posting hearts this time XD twas funnnnnnnn :)

Aww sorry guys. I un-joined the Girls Team - if the following round(s) involve single-player stuff, can I join in with that? I don't feel right taking team points for not doing anything about the hearts, but might still want to do the rest of it, just for the fun.

BTW I like the way these comps are so forum-related, making people go all over the forum - I bet some people have discovered sections/threads they never knew existed.......:smile:

OMG!
I should have stayed in bed.
I knew it.
:cry:

/me does a girlie, dramatic faint
Edit: wait, does this mean that you added the hearts in just before posting this then? O_o

/me now does her proper girlie, dramatic faint

Saffron
03-02-2009, 12:06 PM
LOLOL Nerdy - provide some oxygen to that baby, for goodness sake.......
;)

Mato
03-02-2009, 01:15 PM
Umm there appear to be more than 8 yellow hearts...

Vik
03-02-2009, 01:42 PM
Urgh, more hearts.

What Storm asked - first letter of thread, or post? I still dunno, lol.

Mato
03-02-2009, 01:47 PM
First letter of thread I believe.

db1986
03-02-2009, 03:29 PM
Just to confirm: Do you mean the first letter of the name of the thread, or the first letter of the first post?

Also, is that little "," after the 7th word a comma?

Yes, every first letter of the thread where you found the post is required for the sentence. And yes, that is a comma after the 7th word.
It wouldn't be grammatically correct without it :biggrin:

OK, problem solved. There are 8 red, 8 yellow, 8 pink, 8 green, 8 blue and 8 purple hearts to find.

All the hearts are still "locateable".
Sorry for the confusion :x

Mato
03-02-2009, 04:22 PM
Nooo db 12 yellow red and pink? :s

EDIT: I see you've changed some colours. Will update my list xD

MrsNerdinator
03-02-2009, 04:31 PM
URGH!
>_<
/slap
/slap
/slap

Stop confusing my small and sorry little brain!

Vik
03-02-2009, 04:51 PM
OK, what the hell is going on again?

I've been searching for hours and it keeps changing. Did you change the colour of some of them? Do I have to go back and find which ones changed colours now?

Mato
03-02-2009, 05:11 PM
Some of them have changed colour but it doesn't matter - all you need is a list of posts where there are hearts.

db1986
03-02-2009, 06:39 PM
Why is the max 36 if there are 48 hearts to find?

Edit: Oh, or are the other 12 points given in the first round?

Yes, your edit is correct.

jenni939706
03-02-2009, 06:53 PM
sighlasdj XD ok, i could've sworn we added the hearts right, but just to make sure, i'll check

saffron, i'll invite u back :) its oki XD we have other rounds where u are needed :D (well...one atm)

umm...sorry for making u all do this, but all the hearts are locatable, and some are in plain sight tbh XD i remember every one of those threads

for the letter, its the first letter of the THREAD, not anything else.

btw, round 3 will be lovely :) i promise XD im sure you'll love it a lot more than this one, so dont give up XD

as for point numbers, i checked them 10 times XD im sure they're right,

any other specifications will be addresseddd as soon as i read everything :D

Thanks
Jen

Vik
03-02-2009, 07:03 PM
Yeah, you added the hearts Jen - you just added the wrong colours, lol :P

But it's ok, db has edited his to make up the numbes :)

Mato
03-02-2009, 07:28 PM

looooool :P

db1986
03-02-2009, 07:59 PM
To be honest it doesn't really matter which colours we posted, as long as there were 8 of each colour, that's all that matters :)

Mato
03-02-2009, 08:07 PM
Lmao my God I hope he means 8 xD

jenni939706
03-02-2009, 09:37 PM
phoooeyyy :( whatcha mean i added the wrong colors? the pm i had said i was supposed to add 4 red, 4 pink and 4 yelloww :'(
/me curls up into a ball

Vik
04-02-2009, 08:44 AM
It's ok Jen :P

God knows what went wrong or how, but it's fixed now :)

jenni939706
04-02-2009, 11:56 AM
meh, i figured it out, i read the pm wrong, twas written in pink so i thought pink, red, and yellow were the colors i was supposed to post....probs was it said green, blue, and purple :(

db changed his though.... cause i didnt realize it until i came on again like...12 hours later
/me hugs db <3

sorry guys :( should've read it twice

Vik
04-02-2009, 01:05 PM
Well, I think you're very cool for taking your time to do this thing for us. I was a little confused yesterday, but it's all turned out for the best...

/me hugs Jen

jenni939706
04-02-2009, 01:50 PM
/me hugs vik
thanks, but i think db did more work than i did XD

anyways. little info for round 3:
- no looking for hearts <3
- no drawing <3

i promise :)

buttttt. each team needs to make sure they have at least 10 people that regularly come on please :)

little random info: we didnt plan on having a third round..but thats because we didn't plan on everyone finishing the rounds so fast -_-

Round 3 will start in about 5 days unless we can put it together faster.....

MrsNerdinator
04-02-2009, 02:26 PM
5 days?! :cry: Gah!

Anyway, about the mistake, it's okay. I was just having a mini breakdown yesterday 'cause it was all too confusing for my little head. Seriously, not sure what's up with me lately, but I don't understand the most simplest of things! But I got there in the end :P Mostly thanks to Vik, lol.

So yeah, it's cool, jenjenhead :) although you still get those slaps for making us find hearts :P hehe!

I'm looking forward to round 3 :)

Btw.. when you post round 3, could you add that part about having 10 team members on regularly? Just 'cause I think it'll stand out more than it being in this thread :) Afterall.. people read a new thread properly. XD I think.

Vik
04-02-2009, 02:29 PM
I've also made a thread about it in the girl's team, Nerdy.

God I love the girl's team!

That sounds weird - I mean, I like the other team :P But for the purposes of this competition, I do love the girl's team!

Sorsie
04-02-2009, 03:33 PM
Well we're keeping our group after the contest ;) and kicking out deebee :P I like our girls group.. it's quite cozy in there :)

jenni939706
04-02-2009, 10:26 PM
lol, cruel :P kicking db out like that XD but ok :) only if you guys stop trying to get him to talk about foundation.

Sorsie
04-02-2009, 10:31 PM
Well I was dressing him up yesterday and putting make up on him.. he didn't seem to mind too much.. -shrugs-
