I have your histories here; what's this bit about, hmm, giant ants?

Oh god. I've really done it now. Herodotus is going to kill me. Okay, calm down, I can get through this. I'm sure I can get everything for this challenge fixed before anybody finds...

Fuck, how did you all get in here? The challenge isn't ready yet! Herodotus asked me to get a few things ready for him so I came here, but then I thought I saw a person already here but it turned out to be a gargoyle but it still startled me and I panicked and long story short I may have accidentally destroyed the famous bells of Notre Dame and ruined our plans for the challenge.

Okay, breathe. Maybe the rest of you can help me replace the bells before Herodotus finds out. I found a few replacement bells that we can use, and I think I know the perfect order in which to put them. I want each tribe to hang up two strings of six bells each, and I'll tell you how many bells you have in the correct place and how many bells you have that are in the string but currently in the wrong place. The tribe that takes the fewest amount of guesses to solve both strings will win immunity as my way of saying thank you.

Here are the bells we have to work with:

Posted Image Liberty Bell
Posted Image Desk Bell
Posted ImageSleighbells
Posted Image Taco Bell
Posted Image Cowbell
Posted Image Belle
Posted Image Bell Curve
Posted Image Barbell
Posted Image Kristen Bell

Remember, each string may or may not have duplicate bells. When you're ready to start, make a thread in your tribal forums.

So, we put up two strings, and you tell us the results for each string? Or the total results combined for both strings?

It appears that while I uploaded a picture of bell peppers to the mod prep forum, I forgot to actually include them in the list of bells. We will start over with two new strings.

Nah, I'm just kidding. Both tribes are done, and I'll get to tallying scores.
