A legendary deity in Norse mythology, Odin was a god of many things. He was the god of royalty--he'd be sure to say "Yasss, queen". He was the god of poetry; you'd most often find him curled up with some Robert Frost. He was god of the gallows, he's super chill if you want to come hang out. But today's challenge focuses on one of his greatest achievements--learning the secrets of the runic alphabet. In order to learn their power he had to teeter on the edge of life and death for nine days straight, but in the end he gained the ability to heal wounds, protect his friends and even raise the dead. We hope that today you will be able to understand both the depths of his suffering, and the thrill of the power he gained.
Your tribe must choose two pairs to perform this challenge. One person in each pair will be designated the Provider, and the other will be designated the Receiver. The Provider will get a set of three runes from the moderators, and must describe them to the Receiver. Concurrently, the Receiver will be looking at a grid of runes. As quickly as possible, the Provider must get the Receiver to pick the same three runes s/he is looking at. Once the Receiver locks in their picks, that pair's time will be stopped. If the Receiver's picks match the Provider's runes, they will receive the time they took to lock in an answer. However, for every rune they get wrong, the pair will receive a twenty minute penalty. When you have your pairs please contact a moderator so we can give you access to your chat for the challenge.
The TWO tribes with the fastest average time for their pairs will win immunity. The last place tribe will pay homage to Odin...by sending someone to the gallows at Tribal Council. You have 24 hours to complete this challenge unless extenuating circumstances apply.
Time Expectations: Each pair should not take that long to complete the challenge, likely less than half an hour.
Communication: You may discuss strategies for this challenge as a tribe.
