Dreaming with the wind

If you need to read up on what has happened so far, you can find it here, there and over here.

Here is the email Misha sent us, starting Round 2:

( Misha is capricious and arbitrary (his words) )

I did challenge number 8, together with obscuredrapture and her friend L. Here is what we came up with:

( Well, so I didn't really have any parking tickets, but... )

Now, because my team is awesome, we decided that the 61 team members, 22 challenges, no duplicates, and you have to send something in to be part of the winning team was to be bent in every possible direction to include everyone. Either that, or we'd lose trying, but we'd lose as a team. It was nalathilion who came up with the most brilliant idea on how to achieve what we wanted. Here is the result, our submission for challenge 11, the original song. Please make particularly sure you watch the credits and listen to the amazing song C.'s friend S. wrote and recorded for us:

In conclusion:
SAVING RHINOS
HUNTING SCAVENGER ITEMS,
THE TEAM 4 BUSINESS.

This was one of the most exhausting weekends I can remember. It's kinda nice to be able to breathe again for a moment.
I've spent the last days checking my emails and LJ pretty much every minute, breaking my Thunderbird in the process, because it couldn't handle the plethora of emails, notifications and attachments. Was able to fix it again last night.
I've been printing out puzzle pieces, staring at them hour upon hour while trying to put them together and decipher the writing. It was fun, but I can't even tell you how tired I am and if I never have to work on a jigsaw puzzle again, it will probably be too soon.

But, yeah, Team 4 rocks, and we figured it out and sent emails to Misha. I'm still waiting for a reply but it seems he mainly replied to people who didn't send him all the required information. So for now I'm going to assume that everything worked out. Not sure if I made it into the first 200 who will proceed to the next round but if my first email counts, the one without all the required information, I believe the chances aren't too bad. We'll see.

Either way, it was fun and I met some amazing new people here on LJ and over on Twitter. So it was definitely worth it.

Not regretting having sent that envelope yet. At all. You'll have to try a lot harder, Misha.
