I fixed it trevnasty... sorry 'bout that.

As it turns out... bhazlewood did not get his pick (as it was taken) so he will get his choice between DSMFPBSA and VTSEGPTF... which since they are on the same tribe anyways.. I will choose DSMFPBSA for him.

Coach_deen slides in just in the nick of time, and will get his pick of VTSEGPTF

So for those of you who were wondering how to figure out the cryptogram -

In the sitemail I sent to everyone I gave you two steps. First, to read the rules of the game. Second, to post your name... I'm sure some who had thought they had read the rules failed to follow my instructions.... but I had added this tag into the rules on page 1 in big bold letters prior to sending that sitemail:

YJR VAIR OD TOHJY IMFRT UPIT GOMHRTYOQD. KIDY DJOGY ARGY PMVR.

This is a crtyptogram. You know, one of those things where each letter is a substitution for a different letter and you have to solve them by figuring out the "the"s and double letters, and working your way from there... However, thanks to the Internet, it is a pretty easy solve if googling "crytpogram solver" and using one of the many to find out that it translates to:

THE CLUE IS RIGHT UNDER YOUR FINGERTIPS. JUST SHIFT LEFT ONCE.

Now, you could either have taken the letters that the cryptogram used to translate to the letters in the names to figure it out (Y = T, J = H, etc.) ... or just looked at the clue... which gives you the hint of "right under your fingertips, shifting left" and realized that every letter in the code-names was just one letter shift to the right on your keyboard.

Doing so would have given you 6 hitters and 1 pitcher (which is the tribe captain) from each of the 4 remaing MLB Playoff teams, the San Fransisco Giants, St Louis Cardinals, Detroit Tigers, and NY Yankees... Which results in the 4 Tribes - the *** Snag Infractions, the Drastic Allusions, the Tired Ogre ****, and the Sneaky Yen.

Tribes are updated on page 1.... Take the time to introduce yourself and get to know your tribe tonight and tomorrow. The first challenge will be Friday, which I will post tomorrow night or early Thursday morning.

Also the idols have not yet been hidden... But will be soon with some details on how they work this this game, but feel free to keep guessing... It makes me laugh anyways.

And feel free at any time to use me as a soundboard if you need to vent or just someone to talk to about the game, the people in it, your opinions on the challenges, etc... I won't reply ever but i'm a good listener... I don't need every sitemail but its always good to hear opinions from inside the game ... Later on I will trade idol clues for updates but it gets lonely sometimes as host so I appreciate all the random hellos and dealings.

I don't know if it makes any difference---yet---but Kevintam90 is not Descalso--as shown--but should be Lohse as decoded--

Thanks for fixing that.
