A message from Doctor X

Words from Doctor X:
Greetings, unsuspecting test subjects of my grand experiment,
 
Oh, how entertaining it has been to witness the chaos my little potion has wrought upon you all. I revel in the irony that the promised superpowers have only resulted in sickness and green faces. With all our history, did you truly believe I had your best interests at heart? 
 
Ah, but let us not dwell on such unimportant matters. For the transformation is done and the main event is now upon us. I hold a precious cure in my gloved hand: A single dose to grant you salvation from this pathetic condition. However, I won’t distribute this antidote so easily. No, my dear dolls, you must prove your worthiness through a series of tests. The team that displays the most cunning and strength before Halloween shall earn the antidote. Show me the darkness within your souls, and perhaps, just perhaps, I shall grant your beauty back to you. 
 
The path to triumph won’t be easy: in the end, only one team shall rise to claim the prize. 
 
With wicked intentions,
Dr. X
 
 
From the Focus Group:
Phew! That was certainly an intense message from the doctor. Despite the ominous tone, we need to remember there's a game afoot—a challenge between witches and vampires that will define our future. 

To show everyone’s progress, we introduce a scoreboard on the front page - which will be a testament to your determination, fierce spirit and strength. This way, your hard work will be tracked and rewarded. The scoreboard will be updated daily to reflect the victories and losses of the teams throughout the day. 

While trying to get answers about the nature of the tests, Doctor X revealed that the community will be tested in many different skills, ranging from design and story writing to trivia, dress-up and bingos. Keep your eyes and ears open… and we will do our best to reward your efforts. Remember, you are not alone in this endeavour. Let your resilience shine, find comfort in the clubs and your fellow team members and together we shall find a way to overcome it.


How to participate:
If you haven't joined a team yet, take the goTest from Dr. X here. It will instantly assign you a team and place you into the corresponding club. And don't worry if you’re late to the game, we want everyone to feel included so you'll still receive all the gifts given out when you join! 

TL;DR: Doctor X has tricked us with his potion and has now revealed there is only one antidote for one team. To decide who gets it, the witches and vampires have to go through a series of tests and competitions in the following weeks before Halloween. The Scoreboard on the front page is meant to track the progress and reward your efforts.
