Either do direct copypasta or put it into your own words. Whatever works for you (Y)
Once again, just like the endurance, this competition may - and in the past, has - confuse people. So ask questions if you aren't sure about something.
This is a speed competition to see how many points you can rack up. In this competition, you will be presented with a series of tangled up ropes and each rope has a veto medallion on the end of it.
The object is to earn as many points as you can within 10 minutes. To do this, you will be untying knots and gathering medallions in exchange for points. There are three different versions of ropes and each version is worth a different amount of points. However, the more points one is worth, the more time it'll take.
The colors of rope are white, blue, and yellow. Here is how to untie each one.
For white, you will post *unties knot* twice and *grabs medallion* to earn 2 points. These do not need to be in a specific color.
*unties knot*
*unties knot*
*grabs medallion*
For blue, you will post *unties knot* three times and *grabs medallion* to earn 3 points. These posts also must be posted in blue.
*unties knot*
*unties knot*
*unties knot*
*grabs medallion*
Finally, there's yellow. This is the toughest one to get as you will have to post *unties knot* 5 times and *grabs medallion. All of this in the color yellow.
*unties knot*

*grabs medallion*
Keep in mind that you have 10 minutes to get as many points as you can. The challenge of this competition is to figure out which method would rack up the most points. If you want to only untie yellow knots for the whole competition, that's fine. If you want to alternate between all three, that's okay too.
As mentioned, this competition has a history of at least one person doing it wrong. So please ask questions and feel absolutely free to do a test run (Just make sure you mark it as such!).
This will be done in your Diary Rooms! You have until Friday at 5 PM EST to finish up. Good luck!
