Well, you certainly have permission to use my character as an NPC, if it comes to it. ><;<br/><br/>That said, I've got a few questions that I think might help get things moving again.  How exactly are we meant to be going about this phase of the competition?  Do we just walk around until we find some animals and then subdue them in straight combat?  Is this the sort of thing we could make Survival checks for? (Though I don't believe any of us are trained in that skill...) This seems like a very open-ended way of going about this particular event, but unfortunately, I think that that very open-endedness is what caused things to grind to a screeching halt like this. ^^;
