-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
So how do you win these prizes? by playing...THE GAME!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What you're participating in is an Online Photo Scavenger Hunt.
On FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13th, 2009 at 7PM EASTERN Time (please mark this date down) a list of twenty, yes 20, clues will be posted in an official game thread. It's somewhat of a race, so the first five, 5, participants to submit/post ALL
the photographs in the thread will be crowned the winners (Photobucket
or something similar preferred) . You're probably wondering...
How exactly do these photos work?
Here are some provided examples:
So, for example, a clue may be - Provide a photo of two Nintendo games that spawned sequels.
Here's what your photo should look like:
As you can see, two Nintendo games that have spawned sequels are in the photo, as well as evidence of MY user name. ALL SUBMITTED PHOTOS MUST CONTAIN YOUR USER NAME.
Also, please read the clue's carefully. Notice how the previous clue said NINTENDO game, but did not specify what system. This is also acceptable.
Clue - Provide a photo of two coloured Nintendo Cartridges.
Feel free to be creative with your answers! But not too creative like this...
Now, you're probably saying - what if I don't have the games, or necessary items for the photo. This is where the COMMUNITY in COMMUNITY event comes into play. Get on the phone, e-mail or PM your fellow participants/collectors for photographs - just remember ALL SUBMITTED PHOTOS MUST CONTAIN YOUR USER NAME.
--------------------------------------------------
Do you have what it takes? SIGN UP!
--------------------------------------------------
Registration for this event begins today February 1st 2009, and goes until February 7th, 2009. That's one full week to sign-up. All participants must:
1) Post that they're signing up in THIS thread
2) Send a payment of $5 USD to harrisonfreedman@rogers.com through PayPal (please make sure I know who it is I am receiving payment from and what it's for)
3) PM "Nage Hunt" that you've sent payment, please include a shipping address for prizes.
You may be wondering - why is there an entrance fee for this event? Simply because shipping prizes is expensive. $5 USD is a fair price considering what you could win.

Is it ok to get photos from the net and then watermark them with your username?
Thanks
Zach
No, you need to contact a member and have them write your name to put in a pic. The goal of this event is to bring the NA community closer together.
