It was an Orienteering Challenge to find info on this challenge! I had to google to find this... maybe you could sticky it at the top?

Guess I have one chance left to try and participate, but it sure would have been nice to know when this was happening ahead of time. Yes, I see it was posted on the 14th, but since I'm the first comment, pretty sure this was buried

Yeah I'm in the same boat, these challenges did not get nearly enough love. Each thread only has a handful of views:

This thread: 842 views
Day 1: 838 views
Day 2: 378 views
Day 3: 266 views

That's 2324 TOTAL, including obscenely low view numbers for Friday and Saturday. Since there wasn't a clear announcement I assumed they hadn't started yet, only to realize that when I finally found this page Saturday at noon, I had already missed 3 challenges!

It was a bit disappointing since I love this sort of thing and had a blast with the last round. I guess those that could find them had pretty soft competition

EDIT: Annndddd the last one is in an area I've never been to. Oh well.

I see... however the past three days they have been linking the new challenge into this thread, and they did not. I was unaware to look elsewhere.

Waited all weekend for the challenge to start only to find it had already ended. Would have been great if the info was posted in an easier to find location. =/

Well,

I didn't know about this in the first place - they should have put it on the news of the loader like last time really
