Leaf Turning Season

**Leaf Turning Season** is the season finale of *Lights, Camera, Action!*.

## Description

The final eight compete in the hardest final yet.

## Final Challenge

For the final challenge players will compete as individuals.

### Stage 1

When ready, use the command !stage1. For this leg, you will receive 25 different “wallpapers”. Every wallpaper has a letter in the top-left corner from A to Y. However, some of these wallpapers have a birthday cake emoji that looks exactly like the image below. The emoji can be rotated or more transparent, but it will always be the same emoji. Your job is to find which pictures have birthday cake emojis in them. You will then use the letters from the pictures that contain birthday cake emojis to form one word. The twist? You don’t know how many pictures have birthday cake emojis, so you won’t know how many letters the word you are looking for is! Your challenge will be complete when you type the correct word as a command (i.e. !birthday). There is a 2 minute penalty for each incorrect command guess.

### Stage 2

For this challenge, you will be trying to crack a 5 digit number. You will be given instructions to how you can find each digit once you use the command !stage2 in your submissions channel. When you believe you have your 5 digit number, type it as a command (i.e. !12345). If you are correct, you will be told so. If you are incorrect, you will receive a 2 minute penalty for each wrong command guess. The digits are given to you in order (i.e. “digit 1” is the first number in the code).

### Stage 3

You should have some sort of drawing/photoshop app at the ready before doing this challenge. When ready to begin, use the command !stage3 in your submissions channel and you will receive 4 different tasks you must complete. After completing each task, you will be given one fourth of a maze. Once you complete all the tasks, you will have all the pieces of a maze you must then put together and complete. Once you upload a screenshot of your completed maze, you will be finished with the challenge! Draw within the lines of the maze ( to the best of your ability) or you will get a 10 minute penalty.

### Stage 4

When you are ready, use the command !stage4 in your submissions channel. You will then receive an 8x8 grid of numbers from 1-64. You will also receive a bunch of prompts telling you what squares are lava tiles. You must figure out a path from the “1” tile (top left corner) to the “64” tile (bottom right corner) that does not step on any lava tiles. To move, you can either walk onto the tile directly adjacent to your square (cannot move diagonally unless told to), or you can jump in a straight line over ONE tile (cannot jump diagonally). For every tile you walk on, you will add points to your score equal to the value of the tile (i.e. if you step on the “20” tile, you will add 20 points to your score). The goal is to get from start to finish with the lowest number of points. You will have 15 minutes from when you use the command to send a screenshot of an applicable path. We will take your most recent submission within the 15 minute timeframe. To submit, either circle the squares you jump/walk on or type out your path (type out the numbers you jump/walk on). If you step on a lava tile, you automatically will get a 0 for this section. Tiebreakers in score will be whoever submitted their last submission earliest.

### Stage 5

When you are ready, use the command !stage5 in your submissions channel. Have a personal timer on standby. You will be given a 5x5 slide puzzle of a sand castle to complete. However, there is a catch. Every 2 minutes, you must post the message "I BALANCE ON MY SURFBOARD" in your submissions channel. If you do not post this message either exactly 2 minutes after your first message or 1 second off, 2 minutes will be added to your time. Your time will start once you use the command !stage5. The message of you using the command will be what I base the 2 minutes off of.

**Results:**

### Stage 6

Make sure you have an photo editing / drawing app available. When you are ready, use the command !stage6 in your submissions channel. You will receive a bunch of numbered puzzle tiles that must fit together on a grid. None of the pieces should be rotated. Naturally, you can try and play around with the pieces to fit them in, but that would be really difficult. Therefore, there will also be hints provided (i.e. “tile 11 does not touch the top row”). Once you believe you have solved the puzzle, send a screenshot of the completed puzzle. If you don’t have a way to copy and paste the puzzle pieces on the grid, you may also draw in the shapes yourself on the grid (make sure to number your shapes in the grid if you do so). If you do not submit a correct screenshot, you will get points based on how many puzzle pieces you were able to fit into the grid. Tiebreakers in score will be determined by time.

**Results:**

Upon completion of the final stage, Sheena totaled the points and announced the final results.
