Community Activity:Wiki Scavenger Hunt

Hey Garf here!

I wanted to do a wiki scavenger hunt, well, close to one. Just read on!

How it will work
My idea is a geocaching and scavenger hunt thing. I will get popular pages from the past and have members go on a wild goose chase to find the page by using clues and hints.

Members
Each members will be split into teams of 4 and every member will contribute to the team.

How the format will work
There will be a section for your team with a clue to find a page and you must work with your team in message wall to find the correct page!

Time
Starts September 20th to October 20th, but end date is subject to change.

Example
Team 1 - 1 guy, 2 guy, 3 guy

What is the awesome tournament right now? (Trust me it will be harder)

2 guy: It’s the Wiki Scavenger Hunt!

'''Correct! (2nd clue)'''

Each question will have different points based on how hard the clue was :)

Rules
1. The clues will be on this wiki, so no looking on other wiki’s

2. You can study pages ahead (most of the page will be featured articles)

3. Points will be awarded on how hard the clue was and points will be posted on a separate blog post (which will soon be added)

4. Players will be teamed up in a blog post a day before the event happens.

5. Every time you advertise this competition and if someone joins, you will be awarded one point before you start the competition, but there is a chance you will NOT be on the same team.

6. Winners of the competition has two choices. Get a badge for their accomplishment, or battle for an ultimate badge. Not only that, if you choose the option for a solo battle, I can do whatever you want me to do! *Restrictions applies. Look below for more info

7. The pages can be anything! Ranging from least popular articles to the best pages in the BNCW! Someone might get the home page!

8. Points will be ranging from 1-5 and maybe 10 points. It will be covered in the same points blog post talked about in #3.

9. Each team will be ranging from 2-5, it depends on how many people sign up.

More will be added, but if this sounds interesting to you, then you can signup now!
