I hope this treasure hunt doesn't end up with us all blowing up! Also new tactic: Talk to random strangers on the street and enter every third word the say as official guess here. I hope jb allows this, so here's my new list of guesses: I was too scared to go out actually |

As everyone is aiming for the prize, here's a list of words I as a foreigner can't pronounce properly: Usurpation Wasp Bee-yob (as opposed to beecock which works fine) Primogeniture Squirrle? Squirel? Squirrel Esquire Lemonade Keypad (kebab) Fluff My name Fahrenheit Uranus (don't laugh) Popsicle The difference between highway and subway and where's the midway Most of the SA forum names (deebait and disk usher??) Rhythm presidentists (I'm scared of those  )This entire list |

Speaking of super chill chemicals, did you know that aluminium mainly resides in oxidation state 3+? It's the only state in which it is colorless, too, others react more often and are thus chemically unstable. The melting point is at 933K which is rather medium for a metal of similar atomic size and structure, although it's worth noting that only isotope 27Al is physically stable, all other isotopes are radioactive, so beware! |

stay safe alnilam, most isotopes have a half-life of less than an hour! Also it can react with acidic chemicals contained in most fruits, so I have to figure out how to pack up my super tasty sandwich that I just made because aluminium is not an option here

I did use paper and it worked out great and also still tasted like that. Thanks! In other news, my heater went down last night so it got very cold in my home, but I started to light up candles and this not only made it a bit warmer, it also looked quite mystery and fun. Candles are good |

Quarrel [ˈkwɒɹəl] From Old French querele (modern French querelle), itself from Latin querella (“complaint”), from queror (“I lament, I complain”). Tool [tuːl] From Middle English tool, from Old English tōl (“tool, implement, instrument”, literally “that with which one prepares something”), from Proto-Germanic *tōlą (“tool”), from Proto-Indo-European *dewh₂- (“to tie to, secure”), equivalent to taw (“to prepare”) + -le (agent suffix). Cognate with Scots tuil (“tool, implement, instrument, device”), Icelandic tól (“tool”), Faroese tól (“tool, instrument”). Related to Old English tāwian (“to make, prepare, or cultivate”); see taw, and tow ("fibres used for spinning"). A quarrel with a tool is usually not good!

They worshipped, so they said, the great Old Ones, who lived ages before there were any men and who came to the young world out of the sky. Those Old Ones were gone now, inside the earth and under the sea, but their dead bodies had told their secrets in dreams to the first men, who formed a cult which has never died. This was the cult and the prisoner said that it would exists and always will exist hidden in distant wastes and dark places all over the world until the time when the great priest Cthulhu from his dark house in the mighty city of R'lyieh under the waters should rise to bring the earth again beneath his sway!

I'm going to name what I see, maybe I can beat the challenge with physical interaction! The floor is brown, the carpet is red. The girl next to me is wearing a black jacket and is on her phone, hopefully posting on byob right now. The orange clock says I'm late for my appointment, so I have to get up from oddly blue seats and rush to the big grey bus quickly! |

It was a tepid summer night when he first discovered the challenge in byob. He was sweating and stressed out, questionable actions and random ideas from weird, fast and excited people had driven him almost crazy in the past but here, in byob, he found chill. He started to smoke some legal stuff and got creative. Which words may JB have randomly chosen in the ch-ch-challenge? Was it in general kitchen related? A solid mixture of blenders, microwaves and knives? Maybe was it only living things? Like owls from the owls thread, frogs from the Wednesday frog thread or rabbits from the rabbits. Maybe it was related to the pets posted in the chat thread? A fluffy dog? A cute rat? A majestic cat? The yobber sat back and thought intensively but still on a chill level. Maybe clothes? Shirts, pants, shoes, scarfs, gloves, hats? It was a thinking night and so he kept thinking. He might find a winning word at some point. When he was ready. |

Some say chill, it is a river that drowns the tender reed. Some say chill, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed. Some say chill, it is a hunger an endless aching need. I say chill, it is a flower and you it's only seed. It's the weed afraid of smoking that never learns to dance. It's the thread afraid of posting that never takes the chance. It's the one who won't be taken, who cannot seem to chill and the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live. When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long and you think that chill is only for the lucky and the strong Just remember in the forums far beneath the bitter grays lies the chance that with the post's love in the thread becomes the byob.

City of Glompton posted:good idea. Plant MONSTER. posted:My day was okay but I did not find any crystals. I did see one man and one lady, however. They paid me no mind. You? I had a very home-y day, wrote a lot of words and got creative, spent almost 2 hours in the grocery store because I was really unsure what to eat, so I got into a really intense talk with one of the workers who really needed a friend to talk to, because his life is not great and chill right now and I really wanted to help him and even though he wasn't spared of some tears I think and hope he is better now. Will go there again to check on him! I think we should value the people around us that we merely see through their actions or positions more. Like the cashier that you only meet because he works there. He might have amazing stories to share and his work does not define him! What do you think should or could you do to improve either your or someone else's every day life a bit? |

Oh, that's exciting! Well, in all fairness, I feel like I posted a lot of  at once and also the needed word was only written because I replied to cog directly, so I am completely fine with him winning this, as he deserves the actual glory here

Cog is a true gentleman and a hero. Since I technically hit the word directly but only because of him, if I may, I'd like to honor him by donating my title change to whoever wins the seven day championship in this challenge. We can all be winners here! |

Challenge status report: Chilling in a truck right now. It's not even mine, it just was open and it was raining like hell so I thought let's get dry and I climbed into it. Been here for 5 minutes, no sign of the owner so far. I hope he appreciates me looking after his valuables! |

Nah it was mostly boxes with lots of paper in it. Glad I didn't interfere with human organ logistics here. Update: Owner met me, was very happy that he could provide shelter for the wet ones and also had a super nice dog with him named Lucy, I wanted to make a photo but he said she does not like it, so I just cuddled with her and went off my way, but he did offer me a coffee! What an adventure this was. |
