So sit outs for the challenge?
I would like to sit out if possible - I will not be on at all tomorrow because I have school --> work --> program at school --> staying at someone else's house without internet access most likely.
Anyone else?

If the game is actually BeJeweled I know I'm not good at that game. lol. I don't know why I can't seem to score very high on it.
I know that I will not be on till later tomorrow night. I will then not be on until tomorrow night again. Since I work all day.
I will play though if there is someone who absolutely has no time to commit.

TBH this challenge is almost always won by whoever stays up the latest. I have early morning classes on Friday night so I'm not wild about the idea of staying up terribly late, but I can play for a decent chunk of the day. I'm in MT, so I can proooooooooooobably be around until about 4 AM EST.

In terms of strategy for this challenge: it's always best to capture them. If we can play a defensive game, get a few of them out, then they'll probably logjam and not be able to do much. Austin and Jenna have fairly limited availability from what I've seen, so it's mostly gonna be (surprise surprise) Candice and Colleen that we need to look out for on this one. If the last challenge proved anything, it's that they're not willing to stay up all night for a challenge. Let's hope we can win this and cost them another member.
I'm not sure how the actual posting itself will function, but if you're in Chrome, the CTRL-F function will find and highlight the steal phrasing even if it's in invisible text, so that's a plus. I think Firefox can do that too, but don't quote me on that. The best way to fool that is to post the phrase vertically, by replacing letters in a block of text. However, that's a bit hard to do, and odds are good that if they see you post a big text-filled post they'll post a capture on you anyway without bothering to figure out where you actually hid it.
It also depends if we're allowed to edit previous posts to make steals. You were in Jiuzhaigou, and that's how my tribe won. If so, that's definitely something to look out for, and it's a major pain in the arse. It might be worth just hanging out and not posting much at first, just keep an eye on their older posts and be ready to capture them if and when they make a move.

I'll be on around 2AM and can stay around for quite a bit, but I also have stuff to do and will be away for a couple of hours around 5AM in the morning.

I can never stay up late, especially on a school night. I have to get up with my kids, and while if I really wanted to, they're old enough to get themselves ready and go and let me sleep in BUT I have to babysit first thing in the morning. Plus the cold weather is hurting my joints lol so i'm on my pain killers a lot. So I'd really LOVE to sit out if I could.

Remember: Sit two out, and one may need to sit out after the challenge starts as well.
Something may still change. We'll see.

I guess Daniel is me? Got a message from Jess earlier today, she may have to sit out too I think. So if the others can play that'd be great.

Jess sat out last time, but I will allow her - and only her - to sit out back-to-back. Given her hospitalization and everything, I feel like medical wouldn't clear her to be in the next challenge anyway. I will not, however, allow Jess to sit out the next challenge. She can only do two - but not three - in a row. Just thought you should know that.

Also, I probably won't be around from about 4 EST onwards on Friday, I teach classes on Friday nights, but I should be around earlier in the day, and I'll do my best to be here late on Thursday night.

Ok so Tracy and Brenda sitting out for sure and Yau after the challenge starts, unless she gets on and can/wants to play, then someone else can sit out since the last person to post will sit out? That's the deal then right?
I'll go on invisible now btw, should be back around 2AM EST.
