Okay everyone, how do we wanna divide this up? Let the trios carry the heavier pieces? Break it up?

I'm pretty good at anagrams, I think, so I could probably get them done relatively fast, but I'm probably in the worst shape, stamina-wise.

Yeah, but the time it took for the slower of the players to carry a piece is added to the total time of both of them.

The faster anagram solve time in a pair is used for both members of the pair

Sorry I'm from the reading comprehension tribe :P can't help it.

That does make the challenge more interesting though. I'm gonna do some math a bit.

So I'll just estimate a bit here. We'll want to take it a bit easy on the bigger items to avoid hurting our stamina and possibly getting injured.

1. 5 minutes puzzle, 5.15 m/s = 12.15
2. 4 minute puzzle, 4.30 m = 8.30
3. 4 minute puzzle, 4.30 m = 8.30
4. 3 minute puzzle, 3 m/f = 6
5. 3 minute puzzle 3 m/f = 6
6. 2 minute puzzle 2 f = 4
7. 2 minute puzzle 2 f = 4
8. 1 minute puzzle 1 f = 2
9. 1 minute puzzle 1 f = 2

So we should be looking at around 53 minutes total time at that estimation. We should aim to have somewhere between 10-15 minutes max based on that estimate. Now we can't really afford to have two people on the big ones, it would eat up all our time.

Person A: 1
Person B: 2 and 9
Person C: 3 and 8
Person D: 4 and 7
Person E: 6 and 5

I think that works as a solid plan. Doubling up doesn't really seem worth it unless someone isn't confident they can solve the puzzle, and I think we all feel fine.

It's impossible to do it in one minute. Minimum is two.

Also, I'm stuck with 3 and 6 :(

Yeah, it sounds good :)

Instead of taking 6, the person taking 5 should change it to an 8.
