You can post pics from instagram or twitter but you have type out the script. So for instagram you have [ instagram url = "post full link here" ] (with the only spaces between the words Instagram and URL) the same set up works for twitter but using twitter url.

{Obstacle and Result Spoiler} [ instagram url = http://instagr.am/p/BRXha9dASCc Seems like the 5th is a mix between the Pipefitter and Pipe Slider, where you grip a small section of pipe and jerk it forward, moving across 3 pipe sections. I personally love it; difficult but doable, and a seemingly simple design. Tiana gets to it, some randomer fails it, and we already know Flip clears (impressively under 2 minutes too).

Anyone have an idea when the first runners started? The spectators were let in WAY earlier than in past years (around 6pm), so I'm assuming runs started at dark.

I know there might not be a answer to this but asking anyways, did any walk ons do well? Dont think we even know who any of them are.

The qual clear thats spoiled on instagram. {Spoiler} Are the competitors even allowed to spoil results before they've been aired? Or is it not so strict with city qualifiers? PS: If you're curious, or if you want to avoid further spoilers: on the TV screen on the left, you can see his time.

I assume that's not allowed either? At least I've never seen anyone with their smartphones like at other sports events. I guess that person won't be allowed back on the course...

You don't literally wait in line the whole time. The unofficial walk on line (before the official) meets up about two to three times a day and makes sure everyone is still there. Then once the official walk on line starts, you take your group there. But the unofficial line, Anw has nothing to do with because your not supposed to do it. However if a group was not formed before then it would be like a black Friday Walmart door opening when Anw actually started the line. Wait, so how long do you typically have to wait in the actual walk on line not the unofficial and do the people from the unofficial walk on line typically get the first spots in the real line and are guaranteed to run. Also in the real anw line, once you get a spot can you leave whenever? You usually wait all night in the line, then when ANW gets there you they get you to sign sheets with your name, background, and what number you are in line. Yes, they usually always go by order. But I have heard they can take anyone they want in line that looks interesting (which why do we have a line if that's the case?). Then once you fill out the papers you can go home until the competition.

Let's try to guess the name of the 5th obstacle.
Hmm... there's a pipe, and a thing you slide across... I can't get the Pipe Slider out of my mind.
The walk-on line is for a good story, everyone loves a walk-on. As well, they can root out joke competitors because joke competitors wouldn't wait in a tent for 3 weeks or something. That's my opinion at least.

My guess for the 5th obstacle is the Abacus. Cool name that doesn't include the words pipe, bar, or slider.
