IMMUNITY CHALLENGE: CHAIN REACTION

<font color="red">You may not communicate with your fellow tribe members while completing this challenge, nor can you use any other outside resources (internet, friends, etc).</font>

Each player will be PM'd a set of 5 Chain Reaction puzzles. Each puzzle is worth 2 points each. The team with the highest average score wins.


WHAT'S A CHAIN REACTION PUZZLE?

Here's an example.

SHREDDED
W
F
WORK

You must fill in the two missing words to make a chain. Each missing word is worth 1 point. In this case, the correct answer is:

SHREDDED
WHEAT
FIELD
WORK

Reading as: "Shredded wheat, wheat field, fieldwork."

These puzzles may include:
- Compound words that have been split ("fieldwork")
- Word pairs ("shredded wheat")
- Proper names ("George Bush, bush whack, whack a mole")

Multiple words will never be on a hidden line (the middle two lines). In the George Bush example above, "a mole" would be on the final line, like so:

GEORGE
B
W
A MOLE


Answers that are correct except for plural/singular or tense differences will NOT be accepted. For example, if you answered SHREDDED WHEAT FIELDS WORK, then you would only get one point for WHEAT, but FIELDS would be rejected.

Each set of puzzles has one puzzle based on POG and POG games.


LOGISTICS, DEADLINES

I have six sets of 5 puzzles; therefore, the same puzzles will be going to both teams. Since Wilson Tribe has 5 members, one of them will have to do two sets. The Tribe should discuss and confirm in-thread who will be doing the extra set, and I will send it to them as soon as 3 of 5 members have done so.

YOU HAVE 30 MINUTES FROM THE TIME YOU OPEN THE PM TO SEND YOUR ANSWERS. I will be requesting read reciepts on all of them; any answers submitted more than 30 minutes after opening will only recieve half credit. Do not open the PM until you have a free 30 minutes to complete the puzzles. The PMs will be appropriately titled, to warn off anyone from opening them before checking the thread.
