Back by Popular Demand...The Amazing Race. Season Two. Bring it.

Postby Godly Paladin » Mon Nov 01, 2004 1:15 pm

Welcome to the second season of CAAs Amazing Race. Some of you know the rules but most of you don't, so here they are.

What it is: A contest in which I post, at random and secret times, a country. That's it. The name of a country. The participants, who will be checking often to see if there's a new country out, will post a single fact about that country. (And, if you can, give a link to your information so we know it's correct.) The last person to check in with a fact is eliminated from that round. The last one standing wins!

We had alot of fun with this last time around, and I hope it'll be as fun again. The signup deadline is November 15. Let's get it on!!!

Put me in *shakes fist at Termyt* I'll beat you this time, you!
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Some new blood and venerable contestants! This is gonna be good!

As to 'stealing the title', do you guys think we should have a new sig pic for every race winner or just pass around the old one?

(SManBeyond - So soon?)

Should I have held off one season two longer?

Or better yet, get in on the action, Sunako! You could slay your opponent's hopes for victory! (Sorry. ;))

I think we should have a new one, that says season 2. ^_^ we shouldn't be taking the title from a former champion....XD

ARGH.. I'm gonna have to drop out of the competition.

I'm gonna be going somewhere for a few weeks (and I won't mention where)
But luckily, I'll keep in touch with a laptop or something.

Nov. 15 is the sign up deadline, but if interest wanes before that then we'll start earlier. I'll send all participants a warning PM.

To Sam*Ron: Thank you kindly for the offer! I accept, of course. (Why don't you play? It'll be fun!)
