As part of the Open House fun on Friday 24th, I have devised a little game, called The Amazing How We Live Race.

(Based on how did you guess!?, The Amazing Race!)

You can play the game, and when you've completed it let me know on this thread! Prizes for most creative answers!!!

So guys, The World (of How You Live at Bettermost!) is Waiting!

Go!!

Travel to the Body Art thread (http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,12451.0.html) in How We Live.
Once there look for how many piercings Cameron (Marlene) used to have in her ears. Come back here and post the answer!
Once you have done this you will receive your next clue.

************************************

ROADBLOCK

You must search the Basic Polish Vocabulary thread (http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,12010.0.html), and make up a useful phrase. You should then post this phrase in both Polish and English in this thread

Once Complete you will then receive your next clue.

************************************

Go to the Bettermost Volunteer Centre (http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,11180.0.html) please post on this thread. Either with what you can offer as a volunteer or offering a yee-haw to those that already have.

Once Complete you will then receive your next clue.

************************************

DETOUR

A Detour is a choice between two tasks, each with its own pros and cons. On this leg, you must choose between, CAT & CHAT. YOU must successfully complete one of the tasks described in order to receive your next clue.

In CAT, you must go to the Animals in your life thread (http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,11451.0.html) and look at the lovely photos of all the animals and post one of your own. You should also find out the name of David's dog and cat, my cat & Shasta542's rotweiller. Then come back and post the answers here!

In CHAT, you must go to the chat thread (http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,12565.0.html) and post a little message.

************************************

Make your way to the next Pitstop. Post in the thread of your choice (in How We Live) or start a new Thread of your choice in How We Live and tell us about it in this thread.

A bit of music to listen to while playing the game!!

Well, 'nice to know you Ennis Del Mar' should be something like this in Polish:

'Milo mi Ennis Del Mar'

Kelda, are we to start playing the Amazing Race game now, or wait until the open house on Friday?

I haven't thought up ONE THING for my forum!

This Amazing Race deal is a VERY good idea! It looks cute and I can't wait to play it!

Kelda · « **Reply #6 on:** August 22, 2007, 02:55:18 am »

Its based around the Friday open house, but you can start now if you wish!

David has a dog named Cody and a cat named Oreo.

Shasta's rottweiler is called Raven and your cat is Skimble. Your Skimble looks just like our Ollie. He's very playful and just loves chasing his own tail.

Good pet names!

Kelda · « **Reply #10 on:** August 23, 2007, 05:00:26 pm »

YOu're right Ollie & Skimble do look alike and Skimble is 3 too - perhaps they were seperated at birth!
