.Money, Money, Money, Money!|:.The title of this challenge derived from this song:
This challenge hasn't started, but I just wanted to give you a heads up that it might be beneficial for you to be here when the challenge does start. You'll be racing to unlock safes in the Backyard, and in each safe you might find some of the money below...
More will be explained later, but this money will be VERY helpful in your PoV challenge for this round. So, with that said, try to be online around 5pm, 7pm, and 9pm EST on Monday, which are the three times in which safes will be available to be unlocked. We've staggered the times so that if you're unable to be here at one of the times, there's still a fair chance that you can unlock a safe or two. [/center]

5:00
The first FOUR safes (1-4) are available to be unlocked. To unlock a safe, you will need a 4-letter password. The 4-letter password is ALL CAPS and can be found in this list:
www.scrabble.org.au/words/fours.htm
I know the list is LONG... But money isn't free. You gotta WERK! (Right Ru?)
Be the first to unlock the safe and make a post, and the money is yours!
Best of luck!
Another set of 4 safes to be ready around 7:00 pm EST.

Isn't this cruel and unusual punishment?

Honestly, I'm not going to spend hours of my day without any clues to these passwords. This is beyond unfair so I guess I will remain on the block and if I go home because of this challenge..I'm content with that.
Not to mention you have 5,454 words listed on that page. With having to figure out 10 safes that gives all of us 54,540 possible combination's.

Hopefully the next 4 won't be with that list. It's been a half hour and no safe has been opened yet. Good thing this is just a reward.

I realized, or assumed, some of you were joking or complaining in a playful way (even if it was still a small complaint). Thus, my rant was only targeted at those of you who were LEGIT complaining.

I have been trying too, but with no hope of finding anything.
The reason we didn't complain about the endurance was because it wasn't a needle in the haystack challenge.
Sorry.
Still no safes opened >.<

First up, my apologies if you read the earlier rant I deleted. I was just a little (well a lot) pissed and posted that in the heat of the moment. Though, I still feel that I was justified in venting my frustrations, as clearly, many of you have done as well without any reservation.
Yes, this is a HARD challenge. Yes, it takes time. But no, we're not cruel and unusual hosts as Dianna joked.
This is a REWARD, and while it may be different than an endurance which you're willing to put time into, I still feel that you all jumped to conclusions way too quickly.
Anyways, with that said, I'm sure it's clear that there WILL be clues eventually if the safes are not unlocked. By why complain in the meantime? Why not just try or be patient?
I'm sorry if you felt this challenge was unfair or whatever. But it hurts when people are so quick to complain because we DO a lot of work for this game. Maybe this challenge was not one that required a ton of work or thought, but that gives us time to do a lot of the other things we have planned.
With that said, again, I'm sorry for ranting. If any of you have problems, please address them with us in chat. Also, the harsh words do hurt sometimes, so please keep them to a minimum (whether in public or even in private) or else it won't be easy for us to hold our tongues. Yes, we're the hosts, but we have every right to defend ourselves as well. We're humans too, and we make mistakes, which I did by posting my rant in public.
Best of luck for the continuation of this challenge.

We know these games can be stressful and sometimes overwhelming but this is just a game, and we are all human beings like Penn said. Let’s get on with the game and have fun – that's why we created this game so you can partake in this adventure, so please enjoy it.
I still love you bitches! ♥
