Just noticed that the volunteer page is open. I had a blast when I volunteered as a “mobile mechanic” before, so I signed up to do it again!

Should one have actual mechanic skills to do this? I can replace a flat and tighten bolts, but that’s about it.

I’ve been a horrible volunteer, but I believe that new activity data is collected pretty quickly (triggered by webhook events), and that a daily syncing of activities for each athlete is done to accommodate edits and things of that nature (and people fall into different buckets in terms of when this synchronization is scheduled).

Thanks!!!

Maybe Josh could cast a Revealing Charm and give us a hint for the calvinball hidden in the park??? I thought it was Malcolm X park, but staring at the picture I am less than sure.

If I dont hear from Stryke by noon, I will cast the Necromancy spell.

Josh – your strava indicates that you could not find it too??

Yeah, was there around 10:30pm last night and poked around for a bit, no dice. Got a little startled when I realized there was someone sleeping 10 feet away though and I left soon after.

I forgot to create new ordinances, was sleep deprived and wanted to get the Calvinballs out sooner rather than later. Quantity > Quality, I guess. Here’s a dog with the Phoenixball though:

As a simultaneous holder of Calvinballs, I’d like to abolish the Tarantallegra Spell ordinance (although too late to help me for these finds). I have three laps, no panniers, for the curse of the Warlock Judd (activity #1411167424). I’m assuming I’m not allowed to double-dip with them, so I’d like to apply all three to CBGanimal. Let’s see how much climbing she wants to do.

Phoenixball
10 – (2*?) : base
10 : a beautiful beast
-2 : no dancing/singing
10 : VA -> DC

Fireball
10 – (2*?) : base
-2 : no dancing/singing
10 : VA -> MD

Calvinball
10 – (2*?) : base
-2 : no dancing/singing
10 : VA -> DC

Calvinball hat trick completed, headed out shortly to hide them.

Found a Frozemon doing his best to huff some jenkem. The cemetery one proved elusive though.

The Fireball hath been acquired and some Spell of the Warlock Judd hath occurred. Update tomorrow after the Sleep of the Thousand Logs hath recharged my Warlock Powers.

Please note that I am casting “The Corleone Spell,” as hider of the Fireball found by the novice Lumberjack.
