| kupackman: | That one felt like something out of a war movie. Glenn was there, too, and then Anna, Tori, and Kean showed up, and others. It was like there was an enemy bomb hidden in there, and we're all frantically running around, searching in little rooms, climbing ladders, jumping over passageways, looking for that silly little flag in there.
The only thing we needed was a thunderstorm to simulate some cannons and it would have been really dramatic. |

| ebone: | Bingo--yay, I win!
I ran to the bunker from the top. When I didn't immediately see it (which didn't surprise me, since I heard people had lots of trouble), I peeked into the hole, and there it was. |

| Gimpy: | Since the control said inside the building, I thought that it had to be down at least one level. That bend in the fortifications was my stop so i went down one level just before it (which was just short of the control hole). After checking all the rooms on that level I went down one more level and checked the rooms down there. Then i went back up and started all over again. |

> one more level and checked the rooms down there. This is orienteering??? Even on Street Scramble we try to always be less bingo than that. |

| kupackman: | Oh my, Terry, this one was nuts.
I was only about 20 seconds behind Glenn on this one, and I attacked from the top. I got the correct "ruin" on top, but I didn't crawl into it and go down the stairs and find the control (which was neither at the top nor bottom). I thought, "Oh, this must be at the bottom. So I jumped off the top down to the bottom (not a wise move, as I cut my thumb). I looked in a bunch of rooms at the bottom. By then, enough people (seven maybe) were searching around, and I heard a successful cry up top. So I climbed back up to the top, crawled into that "ruin" and down a mini-flight of stairs into this hidden room, and there it was. I did so many things here that I wouldn't have done if not on the clock (jumping from the top of an 8-foot wall onto concrete, jumping over a passageway). It was fun! However, when it was all said and done, I lost less than 2 minutes here, so I'm not too upset. It was probably the most fun I've ever had losing time on a course. |

| ebone: | A passerby caught some video footage of Patrick looking for #12. |
