The ladder twist for the month of December will be: Every regular official will consist of four questions! As such, the Blitz period will be extended to 80 seconds! (This twist does not affect mini-officials.)

*Important Note: The December and January twists have been predetermined by staff, so no points will be given out in these months for submitting the winning twist. However, valid twists submitted from November through January will be kept and chosen from beginning again with the February twist. Valid twist submission points will still apply for the month after they are submitted, so for the full list of users who earned head-start points for submitting valid twists this past November, see here:

Head-Start December Points

Ilikebugs 20
smii 5

For more details on how to get these points, see the last page here: Scavengers Update: September 2018, and feel free to ask me any questions!
