Dusk till Dawn II

Delirium

The premise of the challenge is simple enough.

People must post at least once between 8pm and 2am to join the game.

The game begins at 2am, then posters must post to stay in the game with the interval to be less than 30 mins between posts.

Failure to post before the 30 minute mark will disqualify the poster from the game.

If only one poster is left before 8am they are declared the winner otherwise it's a tie with all posters who manage to continue posting up to the last required post at 8am.

The winner(s) will get a moon pie.

Hi Koth.
I know I said I might take part in the Sunday night thread but unfortunately I can't.
Would love to participate again, maybe over the Winter bu

Good luck to all tonight. 6.30 am is a hard target to beat

Yeah, but it'll probably be a die-hard bunch of maniacs.

Oh, it's potentially on...


... although I haven't decided if I'm going to commit yet. Trying to figure out how ****ed my body clock currently is and how far I can afford to abuse it. Yesterday was awake til 6am, so I should be grand. Unless yesterdays 6am means I'm horribly tired now, which kinda feels the case.

Is that a no-no? Pasta was pretty unorthodox. Made up the sauce. Think it was sticky bbq marinade, tiny bit of milk, egg, oregano, paprika, mayo, chilli, cheese, plum tomatoes, onion, jalapeños and some Frank's hot sauce. Worked surprising well.

The meat loaf had very little loaf to it, was mostly mince meat, bit of minced pork, pepper and onions. No bread near that lad. Worked well.

I wouldn't say it's a no-no. Just that I've never heard of the combination before. The sauce sounds tasty.

Quite a random sauce. Really it was the Frank's that tied it all together. Really needed to give the onions etc a quick cook before adding them to the sauce, as it had more of a salad crunch than I was hoping for. Made me think of something German.
