Weird Al Survivor IX - Chitchat Thread

Can you please post the two entries?

[Big Spoon]

Yeah! We're gonna be able to provide the four for the next challenge now!

I call bs.

Hey, dingo. So nice to have you call. What's up?

[TMBJon]

Jungle Cruise Guides, great work on the formatting and design of your submission. I really appreciated the Comic Sans and all of the >>'s you used. Also, the idea of the "Ricky Roll" is really funny.


For what it's worth, our entry had a great deal of formatting that does not show up on the post above. There is supposed to be bolded, italicized, large-type, and small-type text.

Congrats again celebrities.

I edited the post to fix the Minor Celebrities' formatting.

Just as a heads-up, I've heard from several people that Tuesday won't be a good day to hold the next challenge--plus, Dave is out of town the whole week. So I'll present a couple of options about how to proceed and we'll see what everyone thinks:
1. We could simply put the game on hiatus for a week--basically the only "impact" would be an extra-long kidnapping. I'm fine with this, although it's happened in past seasons and sort of killed some of the momentum.
2. Since the next scheduled challenge is a live, one-night affair, we can swap it with the challenge that is scheduled after it (which is non-live and would take place over several days). This would mean two consecutive creative-based challenges, so if you guys feel a bit tapped out at the moment, it's probably not the ideal solution.
3. We can re-format the next scheduled challenge to require fewer players. It can be easily done although it's not my preference.
4. Pretty much the same as option #1, except at some point during the week, I'll hold an optional, bonus challenge (probably individual) for anyone who can attend, which can include prizes like an immunity/double vote voucher, etc. This is probably my ideal solution, since it ensures that nobody is 'punished' for not being able to be here, but it doesn't completely put the game on hold either.

Of course, if you guys have other suggestions, feel free to post them. Let me know what you think.

Since I get the distinct feeling that we're going to have to sit people out again, how would that affect option 4? Would the bonus challenge be a free-for-all between anyone and everyone, or would the people sitting out have to sit that out too?

[anthontherun]

It would be an individual challenge, so no need for sit-outs.

[Big Spoon]

Any of the options, really. I don't have one preference over another.

[melcor58]

I'm good with whatever happens.

Since I sat out last round I'm pretty eager to play again, but whatever works for you all.
