It was actually 7:15 before school

I actually mis-read Das Mole's post, and only changed 1 number. But, I think darkmonkey should have to change them, because I was pretty happy with my guesses too.

Sent mine in. Is there any chance you could use just one timezone, preferably BST (British Summer Time) (AKA GMT+01), as it's confusing when in one post you use EST, and the next GMT. Thanks ^_^

hey everybody

im sorry i havent posted in a while, its just ive been bogged down in coursework and revision!!!!

im sendin my votes now

[monkey_05_06]

Well, that's annoying. If I'm reading this correctly Das posted the Immunity results on Wednesday, and the email had to be sent back to him that evening. I wasn't home from Wednesday morning till now. Also, why did I get 0 immunity points? Is this because I failed to guess any of the second half correctly?

I'll send in my vote later...

OK, here is your next challenge. It is the immunity challenge, there will be no reward this round.

I have edited a number of my past posts throughout the entire forums. What you need to do is find the first post, which contains a quote, preceded by the words "START HERE". Follow the clues until you reach the end...if you can. You need to email me the answers at Garchie90@aol.com, by sending me the names of the threads that you got through. However many threads you get correct, you get that many points. Whoever gets the most points wins. I'm not going to say how many points are possible.

Here's the clue to get to the first topic:

It is in the random discussion on one of the last two pages. It's "ID" is a three-digit palindrome (such as 696, 414, 828, etc.).

Good luck, and emails are due by Sunday at 11:59 PM GMT.

Wow, sounds confusing

It's a bit hard if the search is broken

I'll try now. Please can you extend the deadline, as this is a very time-extensive challenge, and not everyone will have read the post by then. I'll try to get it in on time, anyway.

Uh, there is no topic in the Random Discussion forum with a 3 digit ID...

That is entirely untrue. I think you are confused about the topic ID. The topi ID would be the number following the "t=" in the address...

Edit (hey, you can do that? seems like most of you people don't realize this...): There are no IDs on the last two pages that are 3-digit palindromes. In fact the only one on the last two pages that has a 3-digit ID is the sticky Spam announcement (ID 329).

Something's out of whack here.

Are all of your posts you edited in the random discussion zone?

I searched every single page in the Random Discussion board looking for palindromes, and of the ones that I found, NONE of them contained the "START HERE" message. Quit wasting our time with fake clues.

I know it's the topic ID, monkey, that's what I'm saying. Don't flame me until you have your facts straight, dumbass. The first two pages are from the beginning of the forum, before it had at least 100 topics, so therefore are all two digit.

I have a feeling that Das Mole meant the last = last posted....

Edit: I made a script to find "start here" in the first two, and last two, pages, and found nothing. Das mucked up

*Slaps head*

Sorry guys, the post number is a three-digit palindrome. I didn't realize it at the time, so sorry. I'd like to see you do it flawlessly.

And even if I had messed up that part of it, it's on one of the last two pages from the beginning in the random discussion, and there should only be around 30 threads on the last two pages if I remember correctly, so you should've ignored the palindrome part if I f*cked it up.

And since there's going to be a downtime soon, apparently, I'll extend the deadline to Thursday at 11:59 PM GMT. I don't care if the thing takes a long time, that's the point. You have to take the time to find the stuff. So there. That's all I've got to say.

If you have any other complaints, please let me know, and I'll be *almost* happy to fix them. I am sure I couldn't have messed the first topic being on the last two pages. In fact, I know I didn't f*ck it up. You should look through those threads. It's not in the first post of the thread, so do some searching, guys. And it's not gonna be in big, bold letters, either.
