The object of the game is to steal the other tribes crystals by bringing them to your tribe's base, represented by your tribe color flag. This will require a great deal of cooperation and team work.
On the sides you will see your names in your tribe color. In order to move, simply use the select tool in paint and drag your name above the tile you wish to move on. You may move 1 or 2 spaces on each turn.
This means on your first turn, anyone on Buyima could move 1 space to 1-8 or 2 spaces to 9-13. Where your name is located is not indicative of where you start, you may begin on any of those spaces.
Similarly, Kulbon may on their first move go to 45-52 or 40-44, no matter where your name is.
To move, all you need to do is go into paint, use the select tool and take your name and move it on top of the space you want to move to. Keep your name in the "white" and off the platform.
Example Below:
In this example, "Ted" is above the "34" tile so he is on space 34. You may only move your name if you are online, someone else cannot move it for you.
You may "tag" a member of the other team on your turn by moving onto their space. If you are tagged, your name will go back to the start and you will not be able to move again for 1 hour.
In this example, Ghandia is on tile 40, and Ted is on 29. It is now Ghandia's turn, so she can move 2 tiles over and tag Ted. You may only move across tiles that are connected together by a bridge.
Now Ghandia is on tile 29 and Ted has moved back to his tribe's starting area.
Getting tagged can seriously slow down your team's progress and give the opposing team an opening to grab a crystal, since you can not move for 1 hour.If another member of your team is online however, they may still move their own name and participate.
If all goes well and you manage to make it over to the other side, you may now "steal" a crystal. In this example, Ted makes it over to tile 46 where the Wind Crystal is for the Kulbon Tribe
Now Ted needs to return the wind crystal BACK to his tribe's flag. There is one major problem however.
*Once you have a crystal, you may only move 1 space at a time!*
So while you can only go 1 space at a time, your opponents can easily tag you going 2 spaces at a time, which means they get their crystal back in place and you go back to the start and need to wait 1 hour before you may move again!
To help get the crystal across to your team's base, you may need some help. You are allowed to "pass" or "toss" your crystal to another tribemate, provided they are at 3 spaces away or less.
In this example, Ted has the wind crystal, and can pass it to Roxy who is 2 spaces away.
Now Roxy has the wind crystal and can continue going back or pass it to the next player.
The first tribe to succeed in gathering all 4 of the other tribe's crystals will win immunity.
Also note that you may not move THROUGH someone.
For example, Ghandia can tag Ted here, but she cannot go through Ted and tag Roxy. Also if Ghandia were to use her turn to Tag Ted, Roxy could then Tag Ghandia right after. You may still tag other players even if you are holding a crystal, provided its your turn.
Only 1 person from each team may move when it's their team's turn. You will have 5 minutes to make a move and then your time will be up. If you don't make a move within 5 minutes the other team may move. In order to make a move one member of your team will need to use the select tool in paint to move their name to whichever space they want, save it, upload it and post it right here in this thread.
You may also post underneath where you moved from and where you moved to keep things from getting confusing
Passing a crystal to a tribemate counts as 1 move as well.
-----------------------------------------------------
Also, in case it isn't clear:
The wind crystals are on spaces 2 and 46
Fire on 4 and 48
Earth on 6 and 50
Water on 8 and 52
-------------------------------------------------------------
You must make it to one of those spaces to grab a crystal and bring it back/pass it,
Buyima will get to move first at 8:00pm EST on Tuesday night, Kulbon will be allowed to move at 8:10pm est, and so on and so forth until 1 tribe has succeeded in taking all 4 crystals from the other tribe.

If you have any questions or need clarification, you may ask in this thread or to me privately.
Good luck Buyima and Kulbon!
