Scavenger Hunt August 2010 Week 2 Signs
Posted: Tue Aug 10, 2010 8:44 am
This week you need to photograph your scooter with a sign. Points are scored for the number of words on your sign so there's a chance this week for a BIG points score if you can find a sign with lots of words. It can be any kind of sign, business sign, billboard, restaurant menu board, road sign, the choice is yours. However, ONLY ONE SIGN can be used to score on if there are several signs together.
Numbers do not count as words, however to save confusion with times & dates I will rule that any time such as 12:45pm counts as one word whereas a date can only be counted if the day or month is represented as a word not a number as there can be too many different date formats which could be confusing.
ie March 10 2010 counts as one word for March.
Tuesday March 10 2010 is two words, Tuesday & March.
I will accept "&" as a substitute for the word "and" as well as abbreviated words ie "Km" for kilometre
A sign such as
"Opening hours 8am - 4pm"
counts as 4 words
Please include a close up of the sign if it is hard to read in your main photo
Points Scoring
Your scooter in the photo = 5 points
Bonus Points
First person to post their photo = 2 points
Yourself in the photo = 2 points
Each word on your sign = 1 point
Extra signs in your photo = 2 points per sign
If there is more than one sign in your photo please state clearly which one is your Word points scoring sign
Entries close at midnight Sunday 15th August YOUR local time. Please list your own individual points tally for each item included & your total points score with your photo.
General Rules for every week:
-Only one photo may be submitted by each member for each week’s Theme (but if you get a better photo later in the week, POST IT with your new points - PLEASE edit your original post note that you posted a better photo and note in the newer post that it is a replacement for a previous photo.
-Old photos you have can NOT be used - they must be NEW photos taken the week the photo Theme was posted
-No Photoshop submissions
Any questions just PM me
