Week 6: Over the Hump and Picking Up Speed . . .

Hallo Füsters!

Here’s your first game update from the back side of Winterfüste! We officially crossed the mid point of the game on Saturday and you now have only 5 weeks left to show that flank meat who wears the pants in this relationship (oh, and those pants aren’t going to have any room for extra meat so byeeeee . . . ).

Okay, here goes:

  • Last week saw the completion of both the Dry January Bonus and the summary Fastentag Bonus. That was +11 bonuspunkte in all if you earned them both as well as securing your Blue and Yellow Olympic Rings (which, gentle reminder, you don’t have to report on or do anything at all as GG’s tracking the rings for you). So busy week that ended with the Cheat Day AND the introduction of the Olympic Bonuses (check the bonus page if you don’t believe GG). GG, for one, is glad the weeks over.

  • And to that, GG finished last week on the road and starts this week traveling again on Monday. As a result, do not expect another game update until Tuesday evening. The only points that could be scored on the Cheat Day were bonus points so very little to report there so we’ll only be one day behind. You can deal with it by having great and furious patience as GG scrambles to find the time needed to get caught up. He appreciates your understanding.

  • Week 6 bonuses have been released as well as this week’s homework. Expect next weekend’s KoG Assessment to be reflective of the increased homework load and definitely more difficult than you’ve been experiencing. If you want those 3 points, you best be doing your homework!

  • GG has noticed a mistake on the Bonus tracking sheet he sent out via email. On the sheet, Olympics Week 1 is listed under Week 7. It’s actually (and obviously) this week, Week 6. Not a big deal but GG felt he should point this out before getting a couple dozen texts about it . . .

  • You’ve got two more weeks of Doppelt workouts so keep it up and don’t slack off now. This is where the game really starts to separate out the bestenfüste from the restenfüste. Stay focused and find the time to complete your workouts and bonuses and your flank meat will pay dearly for your dedication!

  • How’d the Cheat Day go for you? Feel like krapfenfüste today? GG doesn’t want to say he told you so but hey, he told you so . . .

That’s it for now. Talk again on Tuesday. Have a great Week 6 and GG hopes you continue to enjoy your time at the Füste!
