So too will it be your first stop on your quest to become Sole Survivor of Super Survivor Bros. The first challenge is very simple. Much like Super Smash Bros. is a collection of many video game universes uniting into one, so too have we gathered a series of quotes and phrases from a multitude of Nintendo games. All you have to do is identify the quote or phrase. Naturally, it's a little trickier than that. Instead of letters, the quotes will be written using a bunch of symbols from around Hyrule. When your tribe is ready to start, we will post ten visual cryptograms in a thread your tribe designates for such a purpose. Work on the cryptograms as a tribe, and when you've solved as many as you can have one person post all of the quotes in bold. YOU ONLY GET ONE BOLDED POST! If that wasn't tricky enough, each cryptogram will have it's own code. Just because a symbol is equated to a letter in one cryptogram does not mean that symbol will be equated with the same letter in the next cryptogram. Each cryptogram your tribe solves will earn a point. In the event of a tie, the tribe that takes less time to submit will win immunity. If you have any questions, please ask them here. When can the most people be here? I'm available all 24 hours.

Ook Posts: 374 Group: Game Over Member #10 Joined: Mar 9, 2018	I feel like it's more likely to be a character, specifically a villain since they'd have a title, but I can't for the life of me think what Nintendo character would have a title.

Posts: 22 Group: Game Over Member #9 Joined: Mar 9, 2018	The fact that master hand told us we have 10 minutes left leads me to believe the other team found them all, unfortunately. But I guess we'll see. I'm going to feel like a really dummy if it's some super recognizable quote we're stuck on...
