Mariche Tribe

If there's one thing I know, it's that preparation is paramount to performing.... pgoodly.

I've just been racking my brain as to what kinds of challenges they can throw at us, and while we obviously can't guess everything, even if we get lucky and have a plan for one challenge it'll be a step up.

Firstly: Jigsaw Puzzles using img tags

There'll probably be some sort of image split up into several smaller images that we have to reassemble using the img tags board feature.

Some general tips:

If you can find the source picture (i.e the picture they used for the full image) online, it'll help you better figure out what it is you're assembling.

To avoid confusion, when you're making the puzzle leave an extra line-break between lines of the puzzle so that you don't get confused through the post-interface.

Set up all the img tags in a new reply immediately. So if you see it's a 4x4 puzzle, set up a reply like so (without the *'s):
[*img][/*img][*img][/*img][*img][/*img][*img][/*img]

[*img][/*img][*img][/*img][*img][/*img][*img][/*img]

[*img][/*img][*img][/*img][*img][/*img][*img][/*img]

[*img][/*img][*img][/*img][*img][/*img][*img][/*img]

If it's something we can work together on, we could have each person work on a single line of the puzzle. Although it may be quicker to just do it on your own as fast as you can. Use judgement based on the size of the puzzle

Check the URL of the images. Depending on the site used to upload them there may be hints in the image name as to their position (they could be numbered or ordered somehow)

If anyone thinks of anything we can work together to think of the best way to tackle it :)

some other random possibilities:

Venezuelan Trivia
Battleships
Mastermind
Speed (first to post something)

You rock! This is really really helpful. What is Mastermind?

Great topic idea. Has anyone followed any of the other games? We could probably glean a lot of information about what we're going to be facing by knowing what they've done in the past.

Mostly luck but hey, you never know.

Maybe we should amass a bunch of Venezuelan trivia here so we have it all ready in case there's a trivia challenge?

Venezuela holds the record for the most Miss World title holders. #themoreyouknow
