Hello Everyone!!!! It seems like this week went much smoother than the last. I hope everyone's liking the challenge. Please let me know if there's any improvements that you think we could make.

Just a recap of how the scoring works::::
In case anyone needs it - the spreadsheet that shows the teams' progress is here:
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ArutZf2a6Ry5dEFsN0ZFOENrd3hjWEJJTHdUVkxxaHc&hl=en_US#

^^^^There are different tabs at the bottom of the screen. One for the overall progress, one that just lists the players and team names and one that shows the challenges for the week.

Just a reminder:
For every 20 minutes of cardio that you do - WHATEVER IT IS - you will earn 10 points; as well as 10 points for the exercise challenge & 5 points for the nutrition challenge.

Each team will choose what day they will be resting. This means that none of your workouts for that day will count toward points. Instead - on that day - your team will earn points by drinking water. Each cup of water that your team reports for the day will be worth 10 points, up to a team max of 500 points (or 50 cups). The nutrition challenge for that day will also be up for grabs, but not the exercise challenge. So, on whichever day your TEAM chooses as rest day, you have the potential of earning 525 points. Pretty big bump!!!

Captains need to let me know AS SOON AS POSSIBLE which day your team will "rest," so that I can keep track of it on the spreadsheet.
There will be a bonus for the winning team each week. The prize will be ONE five point bonus. So, for the team that wins this week, if they have a day next week where they did REALLY poorly, they will have the opportunity to use their winning bonus and tack on 5 extra points.
And now that I got all of THAT out of the way!!! Here are the mini challenges for the upcoming week. Good luck everyone!!!! Keep up the good work!!!

    How do I create a sig. tag for the team I'm on? It seems like everyone else has one, and we're envious! LOL

    Woohoo for us! We have to stop scaring others away...lol. I have seen that there are a couple of people wanting to join from the very original page, so hopefully we'll get some who will stick with us.

    I'm in search of at LEAST two (maybe three) new players for the game. If anyone has any friends that are interested in joining, please let me know. I've contacted the two people on the original thread who had commented that they were interested recently. One has already been added to a team and I'm still waiting to hear back from another.

    Also - captains - can you please send me a list of your current teammates. I haven't been updating the players list and now I know they're screwy. Please PM me with the list of people on your team. THANKS!!!

    I somehow lost this thread.....And the link in the week 2 thread wasn't working for me either....Just thought I'd bump this in case anyone else is having the same issue.
