The HxF Mole 2 - Task 19: Lost in Translation

[Kardan]

like we'd need a private forum that can ONLY be accessed by the players and when they're eliminated they're taken out of the permission group for that forum
although seems a lot of work somebody like mattg wouldn't do just for a forum game

This game has nothing to do with the Forum, so I'd doubt you'd be able to get that set up.

At the end of the day, every other member of the forum managed to leave the contestants to do it for themselves.

because there weren't that many people interested who weren't playing err...

[Kardan]

like in the posting task, we wouldnt have got close if phil hadn't helped out etc

That was an oversight on my behalf, I should have put that all non contestant posts will be ignored, since a main part of the task was having to realise you would have to post in a certain order so the person with Post Quota 200 would be able to hit it. But it didn't matter in the end, since the task was failed.

[lawrawrrr]

nah i was doing missing links on skype with other people just didnt post on here lolol

But that had nothing to do with you, you were out of the competition.

[CrazyLemurs]

ok I'll be sure next time that I don't tell anyone I've done it for them
nothing wrong in that case, surely

[Kardan]

nah i was doing missing links on skype with other people just didnt post on here lolol

But that didn't matter either since that task was also failed

But as I said earlier, I can't stop people from doing that, but at least you didn't make it obvious in the thread.

Also, a private forum wouldn't solve any issues, since you'd just tell people the tasks anyway.

[Inseriousity.]

lol using Phil to reach the quota was my idea hehe. Contestants thinking outside the box to reach their targets is different to having someone do the whole task for them imo.

Very true. It's pretty obvious, and has been throughout the competition, that the Mole tasks are designed for people that are actually still in the competition.

For example if Phil tried to drink bottles in Task 1 etc. - it wouldn't be accepted.

Contestants are encouraged to think outside the box with the tasks anyway.

well gina did by asking me to help
task 19 was just 30 seconds in google tbh
in 20, she actually found nearly all of the words that go in the puzzle and I just played around to see what combinations worked
