So I've posted up a guild event for this weekend, specifically Saturday June 8th (8:00 am server). I'm sure many have wondered what this is going to entail. So, here it is:
1) You will be doing a photo scavenger hunt. This will involve taking screen shots of your toon in various places, with various people, doing various things.
2) You will have 4 hours. The contest will end at noon server time.
3) Don't display your pics here...yet. Please use either a photobucket, flickr, etc. account, or your scraps on dA to host the pics. Then I'll ask for an in game tell for a place to go to view the pics.
4) I will post a list of what you are going after here, and again in game. That will start the timer running.
5) Please put some kind of title on the pic, so I know what I'm looking for (and at), IE, if you need a "pic with a hunter" when you post it, put some caption like "me with hunter" or some such.
6) There will be point values for the pics. Easy will be worth 1 point, with harder items being 10 points. However, bonus points will be applied for creativity and combining multiple topics into one pic. IE, if you need a "pic with hunter" and a "pic with bear" and you get a pic of yourself with Oogrian and Plague, then combining that into one pic might get you 4 points, instead of 1 for each criteria.
I will be judging this alone, more or less. I may ask for some assistance, form person of a "nuetral" quality (non WoW playing Hallsians, friends on other servers, etc.) Due to the nature of this contest, I may not have a winner determained within minutes.
I will be gathering some prizes. One I know for certain will be the WoW TCG loot card (just the code to redeem, unless you want the card itself). Prizes will also include some rare vanity pet(s), flasks, and cash awards.
If you have questions, please post them here.

Umm... Is there some way I could be included in this at a slightly different time? It's just that I'm effectively server -7 hrs (Plus a day) and scavenging from 1 am to 5 am Sunday morning might not work so well for me...

Hmm...you'd not be the only one affected thusly. Perhaps I'll post the list a bit earlier, say Friday evening, and give everyone until noon the next day.

Remember to be creative, and send me a tell in game or an ingame mail with a link to where your pics are to be judged, and be sure to label what each one is. Good luck!

I had forgotten about Photomania, then Kitt asked if she could take a pic with Floyd...I was confused and she and Erik reminded me.

Here is mine. The pictures are in order of the list except the last one since I don't know if it would work for a submission or not. You'll see when you see it. Lol.

I will get to judging very soon here. Got pulled away for a 'family day out' and took the kids to see UP. Most depressing Disney movie ever, but very good.

So far we have some very interesting results. Lots of really great pics. Judging these is very tough. Checking to see if I have anything else in game mail.

DANG!!! Was too late! Life caught up with me yesterday. I got pretty busy and couldn't complete the event. I did work on it some early in the day though with Kitt and Zay for the most part.
Here are some of what I captured, just for your entertainment

Okay, so I didn't quite manage to get all of the 3 point photo subjects in... But I got a few done, and a few nifty combo moves, so
here are my photos...

This was a cool idea for a guild event. It would have only been better if more had participated in it if anything to see what everyone else did for their pictures.
-Thanks.

I totally agree! It was a great idea, one we should repeat in the fall when more folks are online. Maybe we should invite our Void buddies to participate. It was fun and it was very cool to see what landmarks folks came up with. When I was online it was early morning and I couldn't think of a thing.
