As entertaining as the video was, and despite the enthusiastic effort, I'm afraid it isn't a Task GET! I judge that it was more a valiant but failed attempt, rather than a tower.

I'll hit the engineering textbooks, and return with something that would shame Abu Dhabi...

What if I do something altruistic, but as a side effect it actually does benefit me? I had no intention of getting a benefit from it, nor expected to, yet still did. Would that count as a Task Get! or are unexpected benefits considered a nullifier?

As long as you didn't do the act in the hope of getting something in return, it's a Task GET!

It could be argued that none of us can perform a truly altruistic act this week, as any seemingly self-less good deed we perform carries with it a few extra points for this competition.

It's a philospohical minefield.

I also thought this. It's a bit of a conundrum,as it is already affecting me, and I assume others too. Reach Back, how many of us would've gotten in contact with someone if this competition didn't exist?

Was this something you were asked to do or did you offer?

I was asked. But I was offered money for petrol, and I refused.

For the Tower task, CAN I USE TAPE?

Gawd, I'm stuck on this one with all the others (half done the song one) still to do.

Im gonna do this seriously, I have the whole week off work now. Ive printed off all the tasks and theyre going on the fridge. Time to win this badboy.

As it's a 1 pointer I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt on this task. Task GET!

You can use any object to construct the tower, it just has to be lots of the same object.

Just nearly smashed my laptop...

Here is the best I can do (without any tape ) :



Does it pass or do you want it higher?

Mighty impressive tower there. You have yourself a Task GET!

Tidy the desk area.

No point, it gets like that again within no time.

That is its natural state.

And I thought females were supposed to be clean and enjoy tidying up.



I made an attempt on a tower today. Gonna try improve it tomorrow though, think I can make it taller.

Man, White Rabbit is like the Red I can respect. She just comes on and posts like a normal geek without flouting her dubious sexual escapades in order to gain attention from the utter losers on this forum. By the way Rabbit, if you're interested in posing for some glamour shots I know a guy, pm me.

Great tasks, Taskmaster. I don't think I can do many of 'em but I'll sort out some choons for ya pretty soon.

Normally this is just a regular jokey GRcade remark but then I realise it's you and you probably do know a glamour photographer and it's amazing.

BTW, how hard is it to get into that field of work?

I can't use this for the tower task can I? It was done about 3 weeks ago.

Should have said you only just made it.

No, bigcheez, all tasks must be completed in the week that they are set. Hee hee.

Dude, I've told you before, those snaps you sent me were very nice but I just don't know anyone who's buying stuff that, uh, extreme.

Nah, that would be fair to everyone else.

Maybe I was trying to show off a little
