Yes, that's right. I am the second ingredient of a pack of Reese's Pieces.
So here's how the last leg went.
I found a flight at a pretty good time for a decent price, drew a satisfactory (though not exemplary) picture of The Citadel (whatever the fuck that is), and finished the ball game on my first try. I got stuck on the cipher (which is always the worst part for me) and Trevin provided me with the first (I think) piece of helpful information during a leg and said "Kenya" which was right. There was probably some other task after that which I don't remember, but then came the all fabulous giant maze of doom. I wasn't writing shit down initially until I came to the first input area which was like, "Enter the name of a famous African." That was actually really easy because it seemed like I saw all the letters a billion times, and quickly entered Mandela. Then, I went back and copied down all the numbers and words that I saw while looking for the staircase (ladder?) up to the next level. Thankfully I got all of the numbers down, so the math was pretty straightforward when I made it there, and Lake + Queen = Victoria. I didn't even have to think about it, which is weird. I dunno. ANYWAYS. After all that was done, I checked in (first!) and decided to bypass the speedbump. But, my goal was to make Orange get in the bottom three so I still had a lot of work to do.
I had been feeding literally every team the answers to stuff after I completed them, like once I got to the maze, I'd c/p to everyone "Kenya." Then, when I finished the maze, I c/p'ed Mandela, 3214 (yes, I remember it), Victoria." By everyone, I mean David, Alex, Trevin, and Green Ryan. Literally every team except Orange. Then, I got to work on the Speed bump, so people could have the answers ready when they got out of the maze, because I couldn't really help them get through the actual spam clicking part. So, I finished the speed bump and told everyone (again, except for Orange) the answer, which I believe was "specialization(s?)". From then on, it was a waiting game.
So, like I said, I came in first. Trevin came in second, and bitched about how he wanted to win really badly. He tried to get me to delete my check-in post so his could be before mine, arguing "WELL I GAVE YOU KENYA." WELL I BROUGHT YOU TO THIS POINT IN THE GAME, ASSHOLE. Seriously, greedy little shit. I tried to be as respectable as possible, though, saying that you (hostess) wouldn't like it if I deleted my post. That didn't sedate him, so I just lied and said my plane came in a shitty time because I was trying to get a cheap one. THAT finally shut him up. Ridiculous.
My plan worked flawlessly. It went so incredibly well that not only was Orange in the bottom three, they got last place. Alolz. I love both Ryan and Ty outside of this game, but they had to go. And I'm glad the execution went so nicely.
Xoxo,
Bnelz.
Edited because although my spell check disagrees, I feel like throwing things when asshole is made into two words.
