Summer Hiatus Challenge -- Round 1, Day 5

Post by DadofTwins »

Now with 2 L's!

If you need an RQ for the R1D4 9-pointer, please post in the Instant Replay Thread. I misread a map.

ETA: I think since the clue asked for "or," there are two correct responses. I'll take either.

So far there have been a ton of great category submissions. I can't promise to use them all, but I'll get as much in as I can fit, even if I have to make "player-submitted clues" a category one day.

I know some folks have religious observances over the weekend, so to allow for your down time I'll try to get R1D6 up some time later this afternoon to give you as much time as I can to play.

It was suggested that I create a posting form that includes spoiler tags. To make it work, just tack a ] thingy onto the end and it should spoiler-ize your whole post. Let me know if this helps or is just in the way.
