Maybe the guy who landed here "abducted" mayor and congressman to "inform the VIPs". Might be an agent for the government. I'll trade the life vest to Gloria for the hat in case she wants to dive in again.

You know you should probably aim to win not tie. Wizard Duel Round 3 Walter Kovacs | 3------Vs.-----Lelith DeNomolos | 3 High ~ 0 -------------------- High ~ 0 Mid ~ 1 ----------------------- High ~ 0 High ~ 1 ----------------------- Low ~ 0 Low ~ 0 ------------------- Protego ~ 0 Mid ~ 0 ----------------------- Mid ~ 0 Health: 3 --------------------- Health: 1 Walter and Lelith fire off spell at each other wildly, striking everything in the empty classroom but each other. Then in a flurry of movement the Ravenclaw strikes his opponent with two well-aimed spells. Reeling, the Slytherin puts up a protego charm to block the next spell. Their final shots bounce off the walls and hit the same suit of armor simultaneously causing it to go into a tap-dancing routine. This causes the two young students to be caught by Filch and they spend the next two weeks laundering house-elf attire. You'd make a lousy psychic, Walter. Don't try Divination. Anyway, Walter wins. Best of luck next time, pedro. Update your profiles accordingly.

Great entry! This looks like it could be released as the next holiday set next year. Awesome job!

Can I have the hat, Gloria?

Town Hall sounds like a good idea to me. I comb my hair before the lifeguard returns. I try to inspect the hat as well

I tell the lifeguard that I'll be there Or there's something or someone else at work here. Can the Senator or Investigator tell us anything more about who they might be?

Somebody grab the Hat already! Geez, its like no one is listening to me... My buddy Earl got sick of me one day and tried to ignore me. All day long he pretended I wasn't there. Finally I grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him screaming "Listen to me!" He whacked me on the head with a crowbar. I needed six stitches after that.... God, I miss him. Damn those bananas and the poisonous spiders that live in 'em! I will attempt to cry on the lifeguard's shoulder

Wizard Duel Round 2 Walter Kovacs | 4------Vs.-----Lelith DeNomolos | 4 Low ~ 0 -------------------- Protego ~ 0 High ~ 0 ----------------------- High ~ 0 High ~ 1 ----------------------- Low ~ 0 High ~ 0 ------------------- High ~ 0 Mid ~ 0 ----------------------- Low ~ 1 Health: 3 --------------------- Health: 3 The young Ravenclaw comes into the second round slinging spells like a madman. His first shot is blocked by DeNomolos and his second misses entirely. His third spell connects with the Slytherin who fires off a wild shot of her own that misses Kovacs completely. She rolls as she hits the floor however and hits Walter with a low spell that locks his knees and sends him sprawling on the floor as well. Send for round 3 when ready.

Hey, someone in the water needs to start gathering up the stuff. I may only read dime store novels on my nights off but I think those are clues. You know, the ones that we're looking for to solve this mystery! Grab me the hat!

I would like to examine the hat to see where it was manufactured and if the owners name might be on the label. I would also like to examine the life vest and use my experience with boats to determine it's origin as well.

I would like to use my years of experience as a dock worker to see if I can recognize where the wreckage may have come from.

I want to ask the lifeguard for a description of the guy she saw and her phone number

Wizard Duel Round 1 Walter Kovacs | 5------Vs.-----Lelith DeNomolos | 5 Low ~ 1 -------------------- Mid ~ 0 Low ~ 0 ----------------------- Protego ~ 0 High ~ 0 ----------------------- High ~ 0 Mid ~ 0 ------------------- Protego ~ 0 High ~ 0 ----------------------- Mid ~ 1 Health: 4 --------------------- Health: 4 The Slytherin Lelith challenges the Ravenclaw Walter to a private match secretly after hours in an abandoned classroom. Walter begins the duel with a hit to the Slytherin's feet that sends her toppling to the ground. She puts up a shield to block his next spell but misses with an attack of her own. Luckily for her Walter also misses. Kovacs tries again but DeNomolos blocks him again. The Slytherin gets a low shot in of her own to close the first round. Send for round 2 when ready.

I would like to ask the lifeguard Hey, babydoll, what you doin' later? I'm sorta brave, Mr. Liebenston. There was this one time when we got this crate in from Australia that shook around like crazy. Some of the other guys thought it was possessed or something. Then, my buddy, Earl, (he ain't around no more on account of this other shipment of bananas that has these spiders the size of.. .wait that's another story) bet my two bits that I wouldn't have the guts to open the crate. So I go in and pry off the boards and wouldn't you know it's one of them kangaroos. I laughed so hard that the others were scared of the crate that I just have spooked him cause he jumped up and kicked me in the head. Woke up in the hospital two weeks later but I did win the two bits. So, yeah, I'm sorta brave. That is to say, I'll go with you.

I can Adjudicate if you wish.

Sounds like a plan! DS sent.

And don't forget my stripe of lime! You should post a link to the comics its in within this topic once you've made them.

I don' think I want to take you so soon since our last bout. It's up to CF if he wants to take on you or me. I'll adj. if he picks you.

I'm back and looking for a duel! I'm also willing to adj. if needed.

Congrats, pedro! It's good that she's letting you sleep now, that's a good sign for the future. I would recommend "Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child" by Marc Weissbluth if you have problems with that later. He gives a good overview of several ways to keep your little one properly rested and on some sort of schedule. It's amazing the difference in their moods and behaviors when they don't get the rest they need. My daughter is 2 now and I can't even remember what not being a dad feels like. I remember the first few weeks are the biggest adjustment, so as long as you get through those, you'll be fine.

Drat, just got back home and was reading through the whole thing when the chapter ended. I'll make up for my absence tomorrow.

I'm leaving town tomorrow and won't be back till Sunday, so if Walter wants to he can. Otherwise it may take quite a while to finish.

Great idea, KDM! I'm always up for a contest! Now if I only had some friends... jk I think every team might have to be regulated, though. I think even with the build we did we needed ADHO to keep us honest. We would have to make sure that the build was truly a relay rather than just preplanned. Or we wouldn't know who was on our team until they were finished with their step of the build. That might be even more fun and would keep the random selection. An organizer could act like ADHO did but for every team at once as separate builds.

It looks great! It was great fun to see what everyone could add to the project.

Thanks for all the positive comments, everyone. The giant toothbrush is something that once I thought of it I had to include it. It sort of dominated the roof design after that. As for the minifigs, I felt that it was important that each of them had a role rather than just throw a bunch into the MOC. I hope I accomplished that.
