WorldWide Scooter Tag

Shall we try this?

Rules:
-Post a pic with your scoot in front of anything.
-Chooose 3 things from the photo that the next person must get in their photo. Unlike a regional scooter tag you don't ned to hide anything from the shot. Get as much in as you can. Have fun, be artsy!
-Winner posts the next picture.
-Ties (i.e. 3 people post a pic within 5 minutes of each other) will be decided by whoever called the previous tag. Or should we go with first reply?

First person to post a NEW picture (not a retread from the Scavenger Hunt in other words) starts us off. I have one but we are using it for our local tag game so I defer to whoever posts a pic first. If our local tag ends before someone posts I will then post my pic. or I'll go grab a new one.

GO! 8)

I'm interested if I understood how it works... Just get a shot in front of something and then someone else has to get one in front of something similar?

Exactly.

Example: You post a pic of... Your scooter in front of a coffee shop with a barista (coffee shop employee) then you have to pick 3 things out of your photo that the next person must have in theirs.
So you could say, next photo must contain:
-Coffee Shop
-Barista
-Patio

Good idea. I'll go ahead and start with an easy one.

Photo must include:
1) Grass
2) Evergreen tree
3) Cemetery monument

The next poster can ask for a blue sky, an oak tree, and a statue... but their pic has to have the previous 3 items.

To me it seems it might play better (more frequently) if you name three items, and the next pictures needs to have ONE of those three. And then they list three new ones.

Should I assume that ALL photos must include a scooter?

**EDIT** Oops, I just reread the OP and answered my own question. (yes)

Whoever WINS the tag then gets to post a NEW picture. Like "regular" tag.

Oh, ok. This is starting to make more sense now. Post a matching picture to win, then post a different one to start the next round. Fun game!

Ok
If I did this correct....
The tall tree is an evergreen
There are a bunch of Cemetery monuments (but not that big)
& lots of grass
Image

And the next one will be:
Bar
Motorcycle
Beer Sign
(the 2nd two should be easy if you have the first)

So if I understand this... the next person will have to take a pic with a bar, beer sign & motorcycle - post that pic - & then they get to post another pic with 3 things that the next person will have to get right?

To bad your scavenger item wasn't a sign that contained the word "genuine".

Great job getting this started 7eregrine. This should be really fun. Gives me a chance to play with my wife's buddy since I can do local stuff. The scooter tag games I play in require 50 mile round trips sometimes and are more suited to my bigger scooter.

Hopefully I can get one today while she's doing her facial....

Very funny people! I live in L.A. The only "rivers" we have are concrete lined channels that usually don't have water. And corn? Can I go to the store and buy an ear?? I'll wait until I can play. :lol:

In the meantime, I'll be planning my revenge... :twisted:

(I'm enjoying all the great photos that people have posted.)

I'll readily admit that I purposely went Midwest on this ... as the sting of the surfboard prop in the scavenger hunt has yet to wear off.

OK..here you go. I assume the fence doesn't have to be right up next to the corn?

Beautiful pics!

Oooooh ... I know where some cows are. BTW, I think the rural settings look awesome with scoots in them.

Nah. We can't be that specific. The 3 things can be anywhere in the pic...

Good work, OScoot. Thought that might be a tough one.

I had a really tough one that I was going to put in for "my" photo, but decided that maybe it was just too tough....but here it is for fun....


Cell tower
Building or barn

:shock: OScoot!, you are quite good at these photo games! Cheers. :D And kudos 7eregrine for starting this new game! I love it. Maybe I'll get my act together and *gasp* actually participate. :wink:

That's what I like about this specific game. Rural buddies can play too.

No offence but I don't think yo should be able to bring a prop, that's for the scavenger hunt. Not really the point here

I have found some great stuff on my rides so maybe they found it. I am more than happy to give them the benefit of the doubt. 8)

Well thats ok then, it's going to be hard to find an action figure out there. Time to start driving slow around the elementary schools :shock:

I think it's a riot. Today is garbage day in our neighborhood...maybe Batman managed to get away from that little darling down the street and jumped ship and headed for the curb! I'm off!

Should the "next" picture be something new from the same ride, or can we pull stuff out of out scootering pics archive?

"maybe Batman managed to get away"

and therefore lives another day to "clean up the streets" - which is kinda what we are doing.....????

and figured a guy with the joker as his profile pic would really get a kick out of looking for batman - "holy playground scanner, batman!"

I'll leave that up to the judges.....guess I hadn't thought of that....but my vote is if it was found on a ride, it was found on a ride - doesn't matter which ride, if you stopped to pick it up before, and saved it, that should count for something.

I think if you have a picture that meets the 3 criteria, what the heck. It would be a coincidence anyway, and with the scooter in the picture you know you actually did the ride at some point in time. We don't need to be so picky. It's all fun and games!

Today I hit several yard sales desperate to find an action figure for this tag. What the heck are kids playing with these days? Or maybe they are just hoarding their treasures. I must have passed 1, 234 fountains but no dang action figures to be found...I haven't given up yet! :cry:
