Rules/Scoring:
1. Items are listed with the defined points. In order for the points to count you or your team MUST be in the photo with a date/time/location stamp. There will be tiered scoring based upon your home address as your starting point for some items. You need to take a photo to start (Time/Date/Location stamped) at 10AM. IF you are starting from a different location other than your home, you will need to take a photo that identifies where you are located at 10AM on Saturday when you begin (Time/Date/Location stamped). The scoring will be tallied after 6:00PM Sunday evening and will take me some time (I’m only one man). The top scores will place
#1 ,
#2 and
#3 .
2. Time: As mentioned about the game is open from Saturday August 22, 2020 at 10am (local time to you) until Sunday August 23, 2020 at 5pm (local time to you).That gives you 31 hours to continually accumulate points.
3. Social interactions will be limited. PLEASE keep your distance at all times. The scavenger hunt was developed by the original creators to minimize human contact. I could not live with myself if one of you contracted COVID during this event,so I INSIST that you be aware and alert at all times. Treat those outside your team as you would a known zombie (no,do not blow their heads off) and keep your distance. Also please follow all local guidelines on social distancing and other measures put in place during these crazy times.
4. Routes: There are no specific routes. You are on your own to find your own way to maximize your team’s points. This is a true Scavenger hunt format.
5. ALL photos must be date/time stamped. The photo must have either you or a member of your team in the photo or clearly be from inside your car. Certain photos must also contain a location stamp to count if there is a distance requirement to the item. This is also why you MUST take a date/time/location stamped photo from where you start so that distance can be calculated for those items to count.
**There are tons of free Timestamp Apps available for your smartphone. Timestamp Camera Basic is free and easy to use if you can’t find anything else**
6. After your team has completed their hunt (or after 5pm local time to you on Sunday) email me your points total or comment on the FB post that I create asking for totals. You have until 10pm Monday August 24th to either post or email me your total. Tuesday morning I will contact the top 3 point scorers for them to dump their photos for validation. Once validated I’ll post the winners and their scores.
7. OBEY ALL TRAFFIC LAWS AT ALL TIMES.
