Morning, Füsters . . .
Just a couple things to update you on as we go in to the penultimate weekend of WF24:
What is (or was, rather) Füstenween? Well, that’s a left over from past Füste events that somehow got left on the DRT. As I’m sure you can tell, GG’s been a bit challenged this go round with issues on the DRT and communications in general. Not sure if it’s his aging brain or what exactly, but he’ll get things cleaned up for future events and apologizes for any confusion this Winterfüste. Just ignore the Füstenween thing on today’s DRT as we did not do that this year.
Many have asked if they can complete their Drachen starting tomorrow (as opposed to Sunday) and GG is going to allow this. Just understand that you won’t be able to score it yourself until Tuesday’s DRT. So if you take the early slayage option of Sat or Sun, you have to report it directly to GG so he can add the points for you or you have to wait till Tuesday’s report. GG’s fine either way.
Does the Drachenfüste count as a Trippelt? Absolutely. Okay, so what if I take the early slayage option this Sat or Sun but I’ve already scored all four of my Trippelts for this week? Then what you’ll do is report it as a Doppelt or Singelt or day off (whatever you have left this week) and then next week you’ll get yourself a free Trippelt for any day you want.
Many are taking the walking/hiking option for their Drachen slayage and GG is reducing that specific requirement to 16 miles total. As that will be 5+ hours of walking, GG feels this is an appropriate amount of time to reflect the “5 workouts” requirement of the standard Drachen. He still feels strongly it would be more fun and def more interesting for a Füster to do multiple different kinds of exercise as part of their Drachen but if you just have to walk it out, 16 miles is the distance you’ll want to target.
What’s the afore mentioned “Drachen’s Tail”? This is a little extra bonus for Week 9 but it’s not strictly tied to your Drachen so GG’s not giving up details on that until Sunday night’s update.
So far, GG only has a handful of Drachen proposals and remember, before you start your slayage, you need to get approval from GG on what you’re planning on doing!
Okay, that’s it for Friday. Have a great final full weekend of WF24 and good luck to all those going on the hunt for their Drachen!
