So now that I have several people from each banch, I want to go ahead and post the plot of 'Into the Gauntlet: The Ultimate Challenge'.
So picture this...you get an e-mail that looks like this:
To: Ashley (Insert Authors name here)
From: Rick Riordan
Subject: Into the Gauntlet: The Ultimate Challenge
Message:
Dear Ashley (SteelBone2),
Hello. You have been chosen among 19 others from the vast fanbase of The 39 Clues series to compete in a Challenge. The Ultimate Challenge.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rick Riordan. I am one of the Authors of The 39 Clues series. I knwo this may all be confusing, so let me break it up for you.
First off, no, this is not a group e-mail. This is personal to you from me. If you want proof, I can tell you that you're running for Message Board Janus Leader right now.
Secondly, last week on the Message Board, we sent out a poll to every user asking the 20 most popular people. You were one of the voted ones. Congratulations.
Next up, the reason you 20 have been chosen is because many people believe The 39 Clues series is real. Sadly, at the current moment, it's not. You will change that.
You and the other 19 will be taken to one of the Scholastic Headquarters to meet me and some of the other authors in person. There, you all will be given $10,000, each. You will then be sent on an all-summer Challenge to find the 39 Clues scattered all around the world.
The best part? It will all be on television.
No one will be in an alliance. It will be one-on-one. You can make alliances throughout the challenge, but ultimately, there will be one winner.
The winner will earn a nice $25,000 to keep and be mentioned in a 39 Clues book.
Please respond saying if you are able to compete. Thank you, and remember to Trust no one.
Rick Riordan
Do you guys accept the Challenge? I hope you like the plot!
~Ashley

MonkeyLucian: Bingo. You got it. That's how everyone is going to participate: People can be reporters and make posts about how certain people are doing, they can be like the Hunger Games sponcers and support one of the competitiors...etc.
Great job for figuring it out! I was hoping someone would ;)

HERE IS THE OFFICIAL POSTING ORDER FOR THE STORY:
1. ASHLEY
2. GRACE
3. JOE
4. KATHERINE
5. VIOLET
6. DAVID
7. JASON
8. KURT
9. DRACIA
10. RED
11. HARPER
12. ISABEL
13. KELLY
14. CARL
15. WILLIAM
16. EM
17. DANI
18. LIZ
19. MARILYN
20. REBEKAH
21. MADELIN
22. REBEKAH
23. EMILY
24. LIVY
25. MIKS
26. LEAD REPORTER (Most likely Gabriel. If not, Monkey)
REPEAT!!!
So after you have posted your POV, please contact the next person. If they don't reply in TWO DAYS, then the person after that, please go. Since we have so many people, we need to keep this going, fast. I hope to do around a rotation a week or two.
Your first POV will be recieving the e-mail and your reaction
The second will be arriving at the HeadQuarters and meeting everyone else (Yes, we'll do that awkward focus group thing
Ashley: Hi, my name's Ashley...I'm a Janus.
Everyone else: Hi, Ashley)
The third will be the prepping for the clue chase, and should end with the cliffhanger "Five, four, three, two, one...GO!"
And after that, we'll all go in our own directions to find all 39 clues (Will post that list later)
You guys can just copy off of me during the first ones, since I'm going first ;)
REPORTERS will be posting around what's happening to keep people informed
SPONCERS will make posts saying (I.E.) 'Who wants to put Ashley ahead in the Challenge?' For every five likes, the person they're supporting gets ONE CLUE. You will, of course, gain clues through POVing, but this is the fastest way to gain them. And no one just post 'I found all 39 clues today! I win!' It needs to be dramatic.
And remember: There can only be ONE winner (Or will there be?)

Can I somehow still participate, I could be a disguise expert who'll crop up unexpectedly every five POVs or so and give inside tips to drowning competitors. You know, not literally drowning.
