Okay, so here's the place to talk about our special event!!

Questions.... Comments.... feed back.... Will you be here or not.... anything at all...

Just need to point this out, it's different from our normal races....
  • There are several categories (themes) of challenges, each with a different number of tasks. There is no upper limit of tasks one student may complete within a category (besides the general upper limit of 12 tasks for each student),
  • but in each category the tasks have to be completed by at least three different students. Otherwise the points for this category's tasks do not count.
This rule was kind of confusing to me. As an example, Category 10 only has 5 tasks. There has to be 3 different people doing them, otherwise all of Category points do not count.


Let's get this done Snakes!!

    I just claimed my 4 tasks.
    We have 5 more 5-day tasks to claim. All in category 6 (the green one). If we want to finish them all they should be claimed by tomorrow ;)

    Awesome job snakes!! Looks like we only have one 5 day one not picked up yet (fiber goal). I grabbed two more this morning for a total of four.

    Here are the 3 days that still need to be claimed:

    69 20 category 6 Reach or exceed your protein goal for 3 days.

    71 20 category 6 Reach or exceed your fiber goal for 3 days.

    77 20 category 6 Stay under your fat goal for 3 days.

    104 30 category 10 Stay under calories for 3 days (remember: these don't stack).


    and we have no 5 day tasks left!! Great job team!

    So everyone can have up to 4 tasks as of this moment.

    • Day 1 (Thursday, December 5th) - Students may claim up to 2 task each.
    • Day 2 (Friday, December 6th) - Students may claim up to 2 more tasks each (for a total for 4 tasks). (Therefore, if you haven't claimed any tasks, you could claim 4 tasks. Or if you claimed 1 task on Day 1, then you may only claim 3 more tasks on Day 2.)
    • Day 3 (Saturday, December 7th) - Students may claim up to 2 more tasks for a total of 6 tasks at this point. (So if you haven't claimed any tasks, you could claim 6 tasks).
    • Day 4 (Sunday, December 8th) and on - All students may claim up to the max of 12 tasks. So if you have already claimed up to 6 tasks, you may now claim up to 6 more tasks for your total of 12 tasks.

    @stinabean83, you can take 2 of mine if you want to participate and think you can handle them (#34 - Walk/jog 7 miles and #101 - Complete this youtube video workout: halloween hiit - 25 mins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VddnhcWIqNQ)
    I have no problem completing them but I have 8 tasks already and if you take them there will be more points for Slytherin ;)

    @starjam25, @bdbchick, can someone check the Spreadsheet. We've claimed all the tasks and it says we have one unclaimed. It seems it doesn't count the first task as claimed.

    I'll take them! I'll see if I can change it in the spreadsheet. I'll do the HIIT tonight and finish the walk/jog task by Wednesday evening.
    Thanks!
