RE: Steemit Ultra Marathon – Game one – round four

in #running7 years ago

Run time: 0.5
Speed: 12
Rest time: 1.5
Gels - 0

Can we choose the order of resting and running? I'd like to run first and then rest today.

Sort:  

At this stage I have to do the resting first. Otherwise things get all messed up.
I'll have to see if I can change things to make it more flexible for future games.

Uh oh... then I need to change my entry. I’ll die on the hill. If I run for only half an hour will it automatically set me to rest before?

Hmm...... no. But you can chose to run at different speeds. e.g. run at 12 for 1 hour and then run at 3 for 1 hour.

you don't have to use up the full 2 hours either. You can chose to only run for 1 hour and leave it at that

Do I get 1 hour of rest credit if I run for 1 hour and don't specify the other hour?

There's a reason Software QA departments always try recruit me. I'll figure out every nuance of an application.

hehe I could have used you as a tester.

no you don't get any credits. The only thing you can accumulate (besides damage) is gels.

I've tried to set this up so it will imitate real life as much as possible, so the strategy is important. but I also need to limit the possibilities to prevent someone 'gaming' the system. And if i suspect that is what they are trying to do, then I'll either change the system or the rules to stop it.

Since this is the first real game, there are still plenty of scenarios to work through. So your input is really valuable to me. ;-)
