Trial Update
Extra trial information here. The representatives have been changed slightly. Originally I was going to keep the first roster and replace Will with Okita, but that won't work because of the trial dates.

Players who do not get a character in as a representative this time will eventually have a turn! Every character will take part in one of the trials at some point.

Please reply to this entry and let me know if you're okay with your character being part of the trial officially, finally now. xD If you do not want a character that's on the roster in this particular trial, let me know now or forever hold your peace? D=

The riddles will not be shared until the day Sphinxie (see the above link) shares them in an IC, ceremonial-type thread, but this is a good update. However, if players would rather I share the riddles (I won't share the answers yet) now, before the characters even know about them, then i'll consider putting them up somewhere soon. Just don't tell other people the answers if you figure it out somehow, because it might ruin the experience for them.

So! Questions? Concerns? Comments? Confirmations on the rosters? Feel free to start asking me about anything and everything now.

	L definitely wants to be a part of this trial. Definitely. Both he and his mun love riddles, and being left out of a "trial of the mind" would be terribly emasculating for him. . T_T (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I love riddles too - when I post the riddles, feel free to ask me about the others if you have fun figuring them out outside of the game. XD If I wasn't the one making them/organizing them, then i'd probably do that. Thank you for confirming L for Asgard, also. =3 I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with everyone.

	Your cryptogram was WICKED, by the way. I love those things most of all. <3 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	1st_lord 2008-07-26 07:23 pm UTC (link)
	Most of the riddles will be given in cryptograms first that have to be translated! XD That might excite you, then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mello_keehl 2008-07-26 07:28 pm UTC (link)
	Eeeeeeeeee!!! Apparently. xD L will be ON TOP of this one, I promise. Sounds cocky, but is there a minimum amount of time we should wait before giving the answers? Because my L is pretty sharp, especially when he just focuses on one thing, and it's in his nature to want to get the answer as quickly as possible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well, the answers at the end of the trial are going to be given to the Sphinx. The each representative is responsible for giving the answer to Sphinx.

The trick there is that each answer either requests something specific, or tells of where to go to find something (that something in particular will be hinted at within the puzzle as well.) So it's not just solving the puzzle, it's going out and retrieving the item...but L could get help for that, or do it on his own. xD L can solve it soon after he receives the puzzle, but it's actually getting the answer that's the trick! >=3

	Heh, thank Gods Strix is not responsible for answering riddles. She would be good at it, but I wouldn't. And then I would FREAK. Wheh -_-' (Reply to this) (Thread)

	1st_lord 2008-07-26 07:27 pm UTC (link)
	Hey, if Strix would be, I'd just plot with you and share the answer, etc. XD That way you could have the answer, but then have fun writing Strix...arriving at the answer? I understand that some players won't be as good at it as their characters. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	strix 2008-07-28 01:07 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I know. It just woulnd't be the same ;_; <--- Is prideful. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	lady_serpent 2008-07-26 07:26 pm UTC (link)
	Confirming for Mitch! Because it would be funny and freak him out. =D Well, and me too, but at least we have smart people! XD (Reply to this) (Thread)

	1st_lord 2008-07-26 07:39 pm UTC (link)
	XD Thanks for confirming~! Don't worry, I already have Mitch's riddle formed and picked out. =3 (Reply to this) (Parent)

	HA HA HA With Flauros participating, Niflheim is so screwed! XD (Reply to this) (Thread)

	1st_lord 2008-07-26 08:06 pm UTC (link)
	Dare I take that as a confirmation, then? XD Flauros is definitely in? <3 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Still Flauros ad_absurdum 2008-07-26 08:18 pm UTC (link)
	Yep! He's in. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	boy_silhouette 2008-07-26 09:03 pm UTC (link)
	Blythe is in! =D (Reply to this)

	franksunderland 2008-07-26 11:30 pm UTC (link)
	I'm confirming Frank, though I might need a little OOC help as well if I get really stuck. We're allowed to ask the help of other characters, right? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	1st_lord 2008-07-26 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	Yep! It's just Frank's responsibility, if that makes sense. Frank has to be the one to deliver the answer, both verbally and with whatever...item or thing the riddle asks him to acquire. He can get help - it's one of the ways to get the other characters involved. I'm sure Alice would try very hard to help him, for one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	This is starting to remind me of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. XD I like it! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	1st_lord 2008-07-26 11:40 pm UTC (link)
	XD It'll probably remind you more of it when the opening 'ceremony' begins. I'm glad you like it, though! I was really nervous, I wanted to make sure the first trial was interesting for everyone. D: (Reply to this) (Parent)

	lonely_vocals 2008-07-27 02:28 pm UTC (link)
	The trail sure looks like it'll be a lot of fun. Morana will of course be trying to help in whatever way possible. ^^ Kinda glad she's not in on this one, since she'd get easily confused me thinks. @_@ Also wouldn't help that I'll be on hiatus for a while in September as well. ^^;; (Reply to this)

	born_of_a_wish 2008-07-27 07:53 pm UTC (link)
	Confirming for Maria! :D (Reply to this)

	deadmenlie 2008-07-29 09:13 am UTC (link)
	Confirming for Wesker. :o (Reply to this) (Thread)

	1st_lord 2008-07-29 11:34 am UTC (link)
	Awesome! Thank you for being willing to take part in a trial so soon after joining, by the way. xD (Reply to this) (Parent)

	avarice_priest 2008-07-29 01:21 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, I'm sorry, I never said anything here. xD Light is definitely open for the trials. (Reply to this)

	yagami_light 2008-07-29 01:31 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, also, if BB is brought in on time, he can participate as a back up if need be, otherwise, it's just an idea. (Reply to this)
