Players, watchers and The Mole.

Welcome to CBn Mole3. The 14 of you are now a team, working together on a series of challenges to earn points that will count toward the final prize in the game. The minimum point level for success is 50,000 - one the previous Mole2 group fell short of. Will the new Mole be as successful?

For amongst you he or she stands, posing as a normal contestant but doing everything they can do ensure that every mission fails. For if the 50,000 point level is not reached, the glory goes to The Mole.

This is all old news. What's new in Mole3?

Some of you have played before, some of you are Mole virgins. But this is the first time that friends of mine from the real world are joining those from the CBn world in this game. Whether they choose to reveal this personally is up to them.

And finally CBn Mole3 has been granted its very own forum with myself as moderator, allowing greater control of the playing field and perhaps a lot more scope for The Mole to strike. Players and watchers are welcome to post anything Mole related in this forum and the current challenge will always be at the top of the page.

At the end of each challenge each of you will fill out The Mole quiz, which will test your knowledge of both The Mole and his actions. The player with the lowest score will be eliminated in the most tense way we could come up with. In the final week we will be left with three - winner, loser and The Mole.

The peace is over, let the mayhem begin...

Challenge 001

To figure out the identity of The Mole it is vital to know your fellow players. The 14 of you have been split up into 7 random teams as follows :

Team 1.
Baron Samendi
DevonKnight

Team 2.
Jermaink
Athena007

Team 3.
Moonraker
Brix Bond

Team 4.
Grantbowler
SnakeEyes

Team 5.
Astros
Bond111

Team 6.
Spectre Assassin
JamaineTrevett

Team 7.
Qwerty
TheJanusGroup


You have already completed phase one of the challenge and phase two is to get to know your partner as well as possible over the next 48hours. There is a key to this and I'd suggest the first player to figure it out posts it below for the entire team and clears themselves of being The Mole in the process.

Afterward you will be questioned regarding what you have learnt, with the success of the challenge depending on it. Success will earn the team 14,000 points.

Simple? Enjoy it, while it lasts.

We'll speak again soon.

I'm guessing we have to find out what they put on their personal information file, right? That's the 'key'?

Either two steps ahead or four behind Snake.

Great to have you back.

Hmm...I think that SnakeEyes is right in that we've got to find out the answers to the questions we filled in but the fact that there's a 'key' to it suggests to me that there's something about the questions that's...well...a key to succeeding the challenge. If you follow me?

If we do the getting to know you part first then we'll be better equipped to figure out what to do next. I think we should go with SnakeEyes' suggestion and PM our profiles to our partners before the 48 hour period runs out.

Sounds like a plan, but does everyone else agree then?

I agree.

I have a quick question.. It doesn't look like the person I've been paired up with has been online, Does anyone know the best time to catch him?

I don't think he's been on CBn much the last few days. Hopefully he'll get your PMs before time is up.

He is sometimes on, must just be a small break.

This should turn out interesting.
