Greetings, contestants!
Your day of reckoning begins at 13:00 sharp. Latecomers may find themselves starring in their own private task of shame involving whatever props I found in the AIM storage closet.
For the overeager among you, there's an optional "bring your own" lunch at 12:00. This is your chance to meet other contestants for some light pre-game psychological warfare over some sandwiches. Plus, you can help with the setup, which may or may not earn you some favor in my eyes. No promises, though.
Remember, there's more tasks than time and wide variety in point values. Choose wisely, or don't - your futile attempts at strategy amuse us equally.
May the contestants with the most robust decision-making under absurd conditions win (as arbitrarily decided by yours truly).
Your benevolent Taskmasters
P.S. Leave your dignity at the door. You won't be needing it.
