 * At Teatro Amazonas...

Canine Fork: Hello everyone! Welcome to another episode of C.R.A.B! :D

Canine Fork: In the last episode, to the surprise of our players, the race started with a super leg, and their places are still important.

Canine Fork: It is 19:00, and at night, the teams are still running, following the clue that will take them to Roraima.

Story and Challenges:


The clue they received at the theater tells them to go to Manaus AM Eduardo Gomes International Airport and to catch a flight to Boa Vista, in Roraima.

''Moony's Curiosities: Roraima is one of the 27 federative units in Brazil. It is located in the North of the country, being the northernmost state (to the north) of the federation. The state is the least populous in the country, with a population of 605,761 inhabitants, according to 2019 estimates by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics. Concentrating around two thirds of the inhabitants of the state, Boa Vista is located on the right bank of the Branco river. The culture in Boa Vista is predominantly northeastern and indigenous. This predominance ranges from musical tastes such as forró and sertanejo, which are the most heard musical genres, to handicrafts. However, there are cultural centers, typical of the country's large metropolises, scattered throughout the city, by private and public initiative; a MPB nucleus, for example, is found at Orla Taumanam, at night. Another nucleus of rock and heavy metal is found in the Social Service of Commerce (SESC) - Roraima, where the Espaço Rock SESC takes place monthly, bringing together bands and local covers.Tourism is still more frequent inland (ecotourism), but in the capital Boa Vista it begins to develop. Boa Vista has won hundreds of tourist signs. City plans are also being implemented by squares and avenues with their best options. The license plate follows international standards.''



The clue also said that when they arrive they should take an identified car, with a driver inside, which will take the pairs to the Ibis Styles Hotel. There at the lobby they would find the next clue, which would tell them to spend the night there. In the lobby they also received 150 reais (Real is the Brazilian currency).

The same clue said they would be woken up at 6:00 am, and that the same driver from their identified car would be waiting. They will take in different times, with a difference of 15 minutes. The car will take them to Pyramid Square. The hotel and the identified car were for free, and they don't need to pay.

There they found the first detour of the season. For both detours they must get there on foot.

*Detour: This will be a challenge in which you will have to make a drawing. You can only make 1, or a comic. Choose one of them: '' Radical Maneuvers or Special Effects? ''.

RADICAL MANEUVERS: If you choose Radical Maneuvers, you must make your characters doing skateboarding maneuvers in the Tom Souza Skate Park, which they learned from the judges, who also know how to skate. Take note that both must be participating in the maneuver, either on a single skateboard, or each with their own skateboard. When the judges see them doing right, they will give the next clue.

SPECIAL EFFECTS: If you choose Special Effects, your team need to go to the Cine Super K, and you should draw your pair on a poster, from a well-known film, or one that you like. When you show the poster to the popcorn maker, he will give you the next clue.

The clue will tell them to go by Taxi to Bamboos Square, and they should take the next clue at the top of the giant anaconda shape slide. The clue also advises them to ask the taxi driver to wait.

The clue of the anaconda will tell them to take a taxi to Picanha Grill Steak House. Maybe when you enter, the taxi driver will be able to wait a little longer?

There they find a task on the clue made of plastic that is in a bucket of champagne with ice. This is a task where they will handle a lot of food... but they will not eat it.

*Task: This will be a challenge in which you must write a story. Remember that in the last challenge, most of the pairs did not know what to do, and they did badly, because most of them wrote a summary, instead of the story. Pay attention to the example this time. The story is like a roleplay with your characters in one single post, telling the story of the theme (you can also include other characters, but they will be controlled by you). In this task you must write your characters by delivering 3 different requests in the tables. Don't even try to skip the scene out of laziness. If you do not specify all the dishes delivered, and do not specify how it was cooked, you will lose 3 points in total (This penalty is for you to train your creativity). Take note that this is a barbecue-focused spot. Upon delivering the third, you will receive the next clue from a cook.

The clue will tell them to take a taxi to the Monument for the Gold Miner. You can say goodbye to the taxi driver over there, and get your feet ready.

The clue in front of the monument will tell you to look for the Handicraft Center on foot. The only thing they know is that it is close to the Branco river.

There they find an obstacle.

*Obstacle: '' Who is the friend of the plants? '' Whoever volunteered before reading, will participate in this challenge! This will be a challenge in which you will have to make a drawing. You can only make 1, or a comic. The volunteer for this challenge should be drawn painting a small Succulent Vase, and then planting the succulent in the vase. You can show the character painting, or showing the vase ready with the plant on it. Your character and the vase must appear in the drawing, otherwise they will earn a penalty (minus 1 point). When a craftswoman sees the vase, she gives you the next clue, after placing the vase on a small table with a sign saying  Natural Obstacle .

The woman's clue will tell you to go to Amazon Little Jungle of the Branco River Park. Somewhere in this park the teams will find the next Pit-Stop of the season, and the last team to arrive will be eliminated.

'''Good luck! You have until August 27 to finish. On the 28th day the challenge ends and we will see the result. A group of friends of mine will also help with the final points. Give your best! You can post one by one or all at once! Remembering that the only challenges are those underlined.'''
