Reevinja, I don't wanna cheat, so.. Just to let you know. I think that you may have moved me two spaces too many. I'm not 100% certain as I'm never confident with myself really. But uh, yeah, you might wanna recheck. As I believe that I moved 8 squares last movement, unless the avalanche I avoided some how moved me a bonus two, or there was some unknown effect, or you forgot to move me squares or something.

I have no clue, but I'm like... positive that you moved me two squares to the west too many. Just telling ya to recheck my movement.

Until this clears up, I'll be operating under the belief that I'm two spaces behind of where you actually placed me.

Well, the challenge that I'm first/currently passing is of easy level, so since all my other easy levels passed with a seven. I won't use my Ability this turn around, not now at least.

I suggest that everyone goes back and recounts their rolls and then traces their steps. I'm doing so now.

Okay, I think that it's confirmed. I am 99% Positive that you accidentally moved me forward two spaces from where I am supposed to be. I would suggest labeling the grid alphabetically and with numbers, perhaps then it would be easier to keep track of movements.

I shall keep a log of my movements from now on to help you out.

I've just gotten on and will be working on getting the next turn up.

- A challenge has been revealed by Seph Baelzara!
[13] Moderate: The Villager Dispute (Str, Cha)
As Seph Baelzara travels through the valley, he comes across two groups of villagers who are at each other's throats with a bunch of goods scattered around the area. He's pulled into the argument by both sides, expecting him to settle the argument. He is neither able to solve it diplomatically, nor fight his way out when things escalate leaving him to flee for the time being. [ A strength check of 4 fails the challenge! ]
- Rain Yupa is unable to retake his lead again, but smashes through a challenge by having the right feat for the job! Challenge: [13] The Villager Dispute

[Reevinja Mk II]

Race to the North - Turn 6
The race is divided into 5 'sections' and, at the moment, almost everyone is in the 2nd section. Three people remain in the first section, while Vorastrix, Rain Yupa, and bamaotaku are the cloest three to the 3rd section of the race.

@NayrVentess, iDragow: I made a mistake when calculating the recharge for your ability, it is turn 7 - not turn 6.
@Vorastrix: I re-did your movement from the beginning, and you are correct. This mistake has been fixed.
@Insanity Logic: I re-did your movement as well, and you are correct. This has been corrected. You didn't specify a direction for your latest turn, so I moved you entirely West. I would label the grid, but most of the blank space wll be taken up by chalenge markers eventually. ;/
@[EC2] Carthinator: Yes, you can do 2 challenges in a turn. You do all the challenges you pass, so if you roll high enough to pass 4 - you do 4.
@Everyone: I apologize for my latest mistakes. I will be going over everyone's turn again from start to finish when I get the chance to ensure everyone is in the correct place. I'll post if I notice any errors. I also apologize for my several hour delay in getting this turn started - I have some kind of stomach bug, and its' making me want to stay in bed and sleep. >.<
