Hey Macrumors! This is the first edition of the MacRumors Scavenger Hunt.
It's rather simple. I will start of by giving you a task, for example:
"Hold up a piece of paper that says MacRumors 9/19/2011 in front of a mcdonalds".
Whoever completes this and posts it first is the next one in charge. You will give a task to do that involves taking a picture. The person will then hold up a sign/piece of paper with the date and MacRumors on it so that we know it was taken and not "googled".
For each task completed you get 1 point.
Here are some rules:
1) No photoshop.
2) Please only post pictures of YOU holding the sign up this way you will actually have to go out and take a picture if necessary (or if you've got the time..which, judging by some of the posts counts here... I think some of us do. )
3)No dupes - let's be creative.
4) If you are the poster who meets the picture challenge, please put your next request in a BOLD and BIGGER font so it's easy to find.
5) IF the challenge isn't met within 3 days the person who put the challenge up then has 12 hours to complete the challenge themselves. If they cannot complete their own challenge, they are docked one point and then pick a new challenge.
Trying this rule out:
That being said we need a time frame that the challenge winner has to post a new one and if they don't we need a statement of what happens next.
IMO it should be 24 hours starting Monday's at 8am through Friday at 8pm. Anything posted between Friday at 8pm and Monday at 8am has 48 hours to reply.
If the challenge winner fails to reply within 24 hours during the week and 48 on the weekend the previous challenger will then post a new challenge to keep the game moving and the challenge winner who failed to post within the time frame will be deducted a point.
6)No challenge is to be made that involves any of the following:
* illegal activities (this includes, but is not limited to: guns, drugs, street racing, thievery, and sexual activities involving minors).
* currency (the participants of this game will not be limited to those with immediate access to large amounts of funds.
* Destruction of one's own property or any piece of public property
*for the slow people who haven't realized it... no nudity melrose

I got the idea on a BMW forum I'm on. We do missions and our e9x's have to be in the pic to get a point.
Some examples are here:
E9x Picture GAME!!!
------
We will play until 12/31/11. Whomever has the most points at that time will be the MacRumors Scavenger Hunt First Edition Champion!
There is no need to sign up and you can join in at anytime.
If you win a task then simply put your point count in your signature. At the end we will tally it up (hopefully we can keep a running tally) and declare 1st, 2nd and 3rd place!
----------
The one who posts the task will declare if it is a pass or not. If they aren't available it will take two active participants to ok the picture; if the picture is disputed by two or more active participants the challenger must confirm it (whichever occurs first).
