I'm just going to make this now, since firemaking is over.
Who's hype for MORE FIREMAKING?!

Not particularly - the endgame is linked in Hare's confessional, but Avocado straight outplayed him.

Alright everyone! The Mod/Spec torchwalks should be open soon if they aren't already. Please use the listed threads and do not make your own.

To be fair, Pineapple said a whole lot of nothing.

And now Grogu is going at us for replacing in.
... He had a month and a half to read over the challenges he missed and chose not to. This is not on us, he chose to not prepared for this.

I love getting quizzed on things I wasn't here for then being told in hostile terms by a mod that it's tough shit Really makes me thrilled to finish this bad boy out lemme tell ya Re: this, I don't think the discord convo was that hostile on our end (it was more 'we're not debating you over changing the challenge') but was probably a bit standoffish. Overall I think this challenge is pretty fair - everyone had the opportunity to read over anything asked, and there is even a question which returnees have an advantage on (the one that asks a question about my DnD campaign - that forum was open to all, but only returnees had an active incentive to read it).

Tbf my first thought when I read the challenge was that it was going to be harder for Grogu than the others. Being around isn’t a guarantee one can get the answers though, while studying is. But let’s see if he keeps getting caught flat footed like this and being frustrated, or if he actually starts practicing Hive ahead of time.

This also Tortoise's challenge, who will have a miserable time with this due to his activity issues.

I feel for Grogu, and it's pretty heartless to not feel for him after he put months of his life into something like this, only to feel like he is disadvantaged, after replacing in as a favor.
Sure he could have looked over the earlier posts more, but even if the other players also didn't, they at least were there when the results were first released. He wasn't. That's a disadvantage.

Did he only miss the first two challenges? If so there might be a case for just tossing those from the scoring, although I think he guessed one of them right. Rey is very disadvantaged too though, probably worse than Grogu, from the time in the hole. Probably, anyway... I’ve only read the first few Qs. Avo might win immunity?

I'm pretty sure everyone in this challenge is disadvantaged in some way or another. Tortoise, Grogu, and Rey are all answering questions about challenges they either didn't participate in or weren't around for, while Avocado's going to have issues with question 5 and the long-form answer questions.
Everyone is roughly equally disadvantaged.

I mean the game quiz challenge is standard, but since they are usually made as the game progresses it probably would have been fair to prep out questions that all of the people around were well, around for. Not sure what to make of the surprise quiz, but it at least prevents it being entirely a prep time challenge.

Everyone is roughly equally disadvantaged. I think literally not being in the game when a challenge was going on is a bigger disadvantage than the other disadvantages you list, but we're probably just going to have to agree to disagree. I'm not condemning you as a mod, but I do think Grogu's concerns are legit, and he's playing for his life here so he's right to be concerned.
