March 2016 - The takman2k

Post by CatchersMitt14 »

Official Monthly Challenge for March 2016
Brought to you by [player]takman2k[/player] the Community Team



CLICK HERE TO JOIN WAITING GAMES

As [player]takman2k[/player] sat around his apartment one evening running diagnostics on his computer, he watched as his cat, having slept through the day, finally arose to discover an empty box which previously contained food. Eventually it dawned on him that his cat intended to engage him in a prolonged effort to deprive him of sleep. While this reality set in, [player]takman2k[/player] began to fondly anticipate the new season of Top Gear. After a quick search, he pulls up the newest article concerning the show. The headline, "new Top Gear hosts take over Liverpool" sticks in his mind while he's wondering if he'll ever solve his computer issues. For a few minutes he manages to drift off into a daze imagining the endless possibilities of winding high end cars through the beauty of the United Kingdom and he wonders, is there a way to bring this to my life?

Hmm, while interesting concepts for a challenge you're a few weeks late with your suggestions in order to implement the ideas in time.

If you ever want to take on a month of planning feel free to contact me!

Correct, any combination of tokens you want to get a minimum of 50 points.

He doesn't post in the forums, but he's fairly active in Global Chat. If you have chat turned off, you might never see him, but if you keep it turned on, he's funny sometimes.

Takman has contributed some clever ideas for Challenges in the past, and some Great War tournaments, too.

Thanks CM14 for another great Challenge! I'm almost at goal now, but I've had a blast and I'm still joining more games, lol. Will probably end up way past goal.
