Cleric started in their confessional, then restarted in a separate thread. Didn't get past "Cleric starts making bricks" in the confessional, so don't know if that justifies a DQ? using up all kinds of words like "for" "me" "he" "a" "we" "him" "see" in just the first two sentences so unless they totally recalibrate their strategy they're gonna crash out fast

Did Brick 3 twice in a row, so guess it doesn't matter.

Allowing it, since challenge did specify doing it in a challenge thread and that was why they switched over.

Bees isn't replacing [PLAYER] with their name. Is that ok?

I'd argue that not only is it OK, it's mandatory.
"This must be exactly as written with no punctuation."
Replacing [PLAYER] with the player's name would not be exactly as written, and the challenge rules didn't say to do it elsewhere.

"of" on brick 3 and brick 8.
Looks like Avocado gets another reprieve.

And in case that wasn't enough, "in" twice for brick 11.

2 things to update here.
Re: the editing, it turns out Grogu did not edit the initial post, so the only one edited was the one Owen quoted (Brick 14, which initially had the word Leaves twice). That one was edited after a quickfire question to us about whether Leaves (noun) and Leaves (verb) counted as different words, and I responded saying that the same string of letters would count as the same word.
Difficult thing to adjudicate there, because it could pretty easily be argued that we weren't clear enough on the rules for that. If he'd brought it up saying that his interpretation was that they were different words, we'd probably have allowed it, because that's a reasonable interpretation of what was posted. The fact it was edited to try to hide that he'd done it is the part that makes it difficult.
Ultimately though, we've decided to let it go, mainly because a) editing wasn't explicitly stated as forbidden, and b) the rule actually states that "They must never reuse a word they have used in a previous brick-related sentence, except for the word 'brick'.", which makes the original sentence valid anyway. Not a decision I'd be particularly happy about making either way but, this + a warning about not editing seems like the way to go here.
Other update, Avocado messaged us over discord to say he's considering medevacing over the way he's being treated at the moment. Not a good thing to hear =/ We've posted a rules update to make this clear and (as long as Avo's okay with us doing this) we're going to talk to Hare about this as well and make sure it's not getting to the point of being abuse.

I hope Avocado doesn't medevac He was selfish and I get why T&H and Bees would be upset with him, but he doesn't deserve abuse.

Last I saw T&H was telling him to take a break and relax, and Bees was saying “Every time ive ever trusted you was a mistake,” so potentially it’s not abuse so much as just knowing everyone is pissed off at him and he screwed up, which feels like crap regardless of whether people are crossing any lines. Wait though does the new ruling mean that Grogu actually wins immunity 🤨
