This is it Füsters . . . less than one week to go to the Finalefüste (and it probably can’t come soon enough, amiright?)! This one felt long even though ten weeks has been the standard for a couple years now. Considering we dropped 35% of the players who started the game, it would seem that a lot of Füsters agree (GG will be sending out an end of game survey so you can sound off on what did and didn’t work for you this year). Having said all that, GG hopes that it’s been worth it for you and that you got everything you were hoping to get out of Winterfüste 2022. January 2nd (the Startenfüste) seems like a million years ago so GG commends you on your fortitude of spirit and your tenacity for still being here to read this final weekly update!
Here goes:
NO HOMEWORK THIS WEEK! That’s right, we’re done with that krap. Not sure if you were doing it or not but school’s out for Sömmer so we’re done with this and the KoG. You guys by and large did a great job with the weekend assessments this year!
Meatless Monday’s come to an end today. If you scored ‘em all, text GG in the AM tomorrow and HE WILL ADD YOUR BONUS FOR YOU (after confirming you checked the box each Tuesday AM). How’d it go for you? A bunch of local farm animals give you a strict thumbs up for your participation in this Monday challenge. 🐓🐄🐟👍
At the end of the week, GG will begin collating the Olympic Rings challenge. You don’t have to do anything here. If you scored +3p (food, drink, exercise) from January 10th to March 11th AND cut of your Drachenschwanz, you’ll be rewarded the +15p bonus!
Speaking of Drachens, their slayage is in full effect now so if you haven’t done it then best get to it! No point in waiting for that Drachen to come get you!
This final week is particularly brutal for Bonus play, as GG knows only too well. It’s really a different take on last year’s Höllenwoche (Hell Week) with some heavy lifts starting today. 200 flights of stairs when the tallest building in the world is only 168? That’s right! GG wants you to feel fully accomplished and for you to be able to point at something and say, see, I did that right there. 3 minute plank? No problem. 45 pound weighted walk in under an hour? You got this!
There’ll be one final update on Friday to sum up this last week and put out more details on the Finalefüste. With the seeming demise of COVID in the U.S., perhaps we can return to an in-person event to close out future Winterfüstes (we used to do that in the old days, get everyone together, do crazy and stupid games and eat tacos or pizza, which was shockingly controversial at times).
That’s it for now. Have a great final week and finish STRONG, Füsters!
Slava Ukraini!
