Introduction

Welcome players to the 5th season of The Mole. For the next few weeks, you'll be working as a team to try to add as much money as possible into the group pot. For a historical reference, previous seasons have added between $154,800 and $366,500. As the seasons have progressed, the total winnings have declined each season.
Hopefully the 12 of you will be able to work much better as a team and add more money than previous groups. Of course, one of you is a saboteur. While you're all working to add money to the pot, this selected individual will be working hard to keep money from the pot either directly or indirectly. They'll also be attempting to throw suspicion on the rest of the group. Your goal is to identify which player is working undercover for me. After every few challenges, you'll have the opportunity to put your hunches to the test with a quiz on the identity of the mole. The player who scores the lowest on each quiz will be eliminated from the game. Getting people to suspect you as the mole might help you advance further in the game.
Throughout the game there will be opportunities to win exemption from the execution quizzes. An exemption allows you to pass through to the next round automatically without having to take the quiz. Typically earning an exemption will involve withholding money from the group pot, so you'll have the dilemma of helping yourself or helping the team.
You will each have a personal journal. Nobody has access to this area but you. Use it very wisely, as this will be the only help you'll have during the quizzes. Take notes on challenges, conversations and suspicious behavior by your fellow competitors. Anything said in public or activity during a task could show up on the quiz so pay careful attention to everything going on.

To clear up a few things about the quiz and eliminations, since some of you might not be completely familiar with the game concept.
After every few tasks/challenges, there will be a 10-question, multiple choice quiz. The questions could pertain to the answers to the player profile, how the mole acted on a specific task (did the mole complete? In what order did the mole attempt?) or just general board activity (what room is the mole in? Did the mole contribute to a specific conversation?).
Many of the correct answers can relate to multiple players. So you can still get questions correctly even if the person you suspect is not really the mole.
Whichever player gets the fewest answers correct on the quiz will be eliminated from the game.

Also, there are still 3 people who are not registered. Hopefully, they get here before the first challenge and get all of their stuff completed.

Just checking to make sure, does everyone have access to their chosen room and their individual journal?
