Welcome to CBn Mole II : 16 Contestants, 1 Winner, 1 Mole...

You know the rest.


You are now a team, working together to gain points toward a final prize that only one of you will enjoy. Reaching 50,000 points will gain a personalised avatar and other prizes are on offer as levels are reached after that. Team work will be required to do so, and if the team fails to reach 50,000 points the avatar will go to The Mole.

The Mole's job is simple : sabotage. Posing as a contestant his or her job is to ensure that the team fails set challenges and does not earn whatever point value is placed on the challenge's success.

Each challenge lasts around a week and at the end of each one all contestants will be sent The Mole Quiz which will determine who knows the most and least about the identity of The Mole. The results are available to The Mole and he or she can and most probably will use this data to target certain players. Once all quizzes have been completed the contestant who scores the lowest score, who knows least about the identity of The Mole, will be eliminated.

Sounds simple enough, eh?

Let the mayhem begin.

Challenge One

The first challenge is a simple get to know you session to bring the team together. This will be necessary if you are to succeed, and hopefully make it more emotional when you get eliminated. Each of you has been partnered with another player in your signup order as follows :

Tanger - brendan007
fraternal - bond111
Brix_Bond_007 - Baron Samendi
Qwerty - PacoScaramanga
Athena007 - trs007
johnboy007 - terminus
Xenobia - SnakeEyes
Q-Zar - Bondfreak007

Each player has been assigned something to extract from their partner. Players are to forward their findings to me for confirmation as later in the week the team will be quizzed and if correct information has been shared you will earn 10,000 points. Of course sabotage is amongst you, and working to prove itself fit.

Best of luck to all players, you will receive your information shortly by PM. And to The Mole, you are now activated. This is your first test and greatest hurdle.

Remember there are no rules and absolutely none of you should get too comfortable just yet.

Hope you like eachother and enjoy the game,

mb

Hi

Uhm. I guess I'm the first person to post here ! Hi team ! We should have a team name ! That would be sooooooo coool.

And does anyone have any advice on what to do when you meet your boyfriends parents for the first time ? I'm meeting mine on tuesday and I'm soooooo terrified.

A few bits and bobs about me, then

I'm 21, I'm studying psychology and I love both Bond and Survivor. My favourite author is Christopher Rice.

Uhm, who's next ? Lol.

I'm nervous.
I could be found out to be the mole!
Or not.
Damn these highly inconclusive posts penned only to boost said count.

So I have to get to know Xenobia...

Could be nice :)

I wonder how the challenges are issued. 2 different ones randomly assigned to one or the other in a pair, or many, many different ones.

I guess only 2 people know. Matt and THE MOLE!

It's good to be in the know...

Considering it's early days yet, I don't think anyone can have much of a clue who the mole is (other than Matt/MOLE).

I'm taking somewhat of a back seat for the first part to let the breeze blow the answers in my direction.

Moles leave holes where they have been, and I can smell a rat.

Once again I would like to congradulate myself on a 'nice little nothing' that I posted to add another useless digit to my post count.

As far as being helpful goes; since we're all one big team, would someone from another partnership trust me with their question they had to ask there partner? We can compare!

I've got a few people I suspect....you see last night I had a weird dream. I was in my backyard and there was something I wanted to kick, and my foot went right through the ground and out came this mole......and it said 'beware my counterpart!' and gave me some clues

No!

I was the first Mole!

Only my password didn't work for some reason so I changed to Jimmy Blonde.

But now I'm back, with a great sig, too!

I'm up for Mole III!

(and no, to avoid confusion, I am not the Mole in the game!)

LOL

I'll know who the mole is when I beat it out of him in the final showdown at the last week.

May his/her jaw bleed profusely.

May I ask exactly what you mean by 'intercepted', Matt? You personally sent out those e-mails straight to the partnerships concerned. No?

I think it was a joke designed to make people feel uneasy.

That's the way I read it anyway.

OMG. Maybe that was the way you'r esupposed to read it and infact the mole has each of our questions, answers and even pickings from our teeth up for review at this VERY MOMENT.

*Run to a corner and rocks gently screwwing up eyes and placing hands over ears*

MOLES SCARE ME!

Already the mishaps are occuring and I haven't even posted one THUNDERDOME email. As last round's winner, it'll be nice to kick back and relax--what will I do--get a re-personalized avatar.

I had actually thought the prize was different this time.
