Questions about the game dynamics to the revered mods.

As the contestants are now in something like "parties" eg. near each other, will they still face the next day's challenges alone?

It would feel a bit odd, that they make friends during the night and then one at the time perform the same challenges the next day. And wouldn't any reasonable contestant try to use others to help oneself with at least the more challenging problems they face and just try to get rid of any competition later on?

So is something like teamwork allowed?

Another question.

If I know that I'll probably be sleeping and then busy (RL) when the new day begins (GT), can I send my choice of direction beforehand so that when I wake up (RL) I can immediately see the description and think for my questions?

I know it's a little weird to not talk to other players during the day, but remember there can only be one winner. And Eoln is always watching, he would not allow such frivolous chatter during your challenges. You may look at one another during the day and have your own thoughts about other player, but you may not help someone else with their challenge. You can "help" other players by your actions, but you may not talk!!

If you know you will be away at the start of the new day you may pm me your direction choice, but ONLY if you know you will be away, no sending them early for your convenience.

It wouldn't really matter though, because we'd still get the answers back at the same time as the others players.
