 		Invasion 5 -Clever Waste of Time Starting April 29th.
New teamplay, real time riddle/puzzle solving game starts soon.
A new incarnation of the team play forum-based CWOT Invasion is starting on August 29th.
Site Info: http://invasion.cleverwasteoftime.com/contact/index.php?action=forum

How it works:
1. Join the forum, join a team.
2. Rounds are released at specific predetermined times. Round release involves a clue and a starter link page.
3. Players work as a team to try to decipher the clue and use it to find egg pages. Eggs lead to either further eggs, or the final solve.
4. The final solve will involve a challenge for that team. It used to be about taking a picture of some world location. That aspect of the game has been altered as such:
Quote:
For Invasion 5 the destinations are no longer a destination. Instead they are a series of visual puzzles that are open to each and every team that solves the Round. Each ending has been meticulously thought out to give every team a fighting chance. Gone are the days where you must go to a specific museum in a specific country and take a specific picture. You may still have to go to a museum, but it will be ANY museum. Instead of seeing "Take a photo of the Eiffel Tower to end the Round!" You will now see "Take a series of pictures of street signs that end up spelling out a title to a book" For this, then your team can work in collaboration (or individually) to rush out and take pictures of various street signs. It may take 3 pictures it may take 30. If you have a book title in mind (let's say Clive Cussler's 'Trojan Odyssey') You will need a minimum of 2 pictures, one containing a street sigh that says "Trojan" and another that says "Odyssey". If you cannot find "odyssey' street, for example, then you must find O street, S street, Y street, etc and spell odyssey, which will then take your total pic count to 6 (since s and y repeat, only one would be required). Some "destinations" will be harder than others, but each will be able to be retrieved by any team.


Points are awarded based on solving the round and completing all instructions. There are other bonuses and Video Bonuses available as well.

I've just created a team that right now consists of just myself. I'm here to recruit new members, but encourage anyone to check out the site and join any team. Hope to see some of you there! Surprised Smile

 		We've now got 3 teams large enough to play = AWESOME.
My team could really use some numbers though so if you like being an underdog come join in. Smile
