Hey kids, do you like scavenger hunts?

How about free stuff?

If you answered yes to either or both of those questions I have just the thing for you.


(Click for bigger)

Also, I'd like to point out that you may have to give me your mailing address, only if you win.

Sign up here and if there are any questions, feel free to ask them in this thread too.

@Dr. Octagonopus

Just a simple note to prove you didn't google a picture.

For example, if one of the items to find was "Diddy Kong Racing for N64" you'd have to take the picture of the cartridge with your note.

Like so…

It's like a timestamp, without the full date.

1) I don't know your time zone is so I can't help you.

Hopefully this website can.

2) Of course.

All right, right around THIS TIME tomorrow, the list of items will be posted in this thread.

I'd like to take some time to explain what will happen tomorrow.

1) I will post the list.
2) You will find the items and take pictures of them with your timestamp.
3) You will email me at ohyeahkymdotcom@aol.com
What I would like to have in your email
- All the pictures (your time is decided by when I receive the full set) Please tell me what the images are, it would make my job easier.
- Your username on KYM
- Whether or not you are okay with me posting your pictures in the Community Building Contest flickr account. The account is public and anyone can see the pictures.
4) I will not post until Friday and will email the winners on Friday.
5) I will post the pictures to flickr alphabetically, not necessarily by how they place in the contest.

If there are any questions or late sign-ups do so now.

(Sign-ups aren't really necessary but they give me a good idea about how many people will send me emails)

I'm in, as well. I'm not sure how much of the list I will be able to do being at work and all during the start of it, but I'll never know what items I may be able to find here at the office, either. Regardless, this should be fun and hopefully a big success with the KYM community.

Here's the list.

GOGOGOGOGO!

Remember folks, the email address is ohyeahkymdotcom@aol.com.

Results shall be posted on Friday at exactly whenever I feel like it o'clock.

Also, be sport and don't post your time before I do.

Thanks, and I will see you all tomorrow.

I'll post the times later today.

Until then, enjoy some of the pictures I received.

(Not all the pictures I received are there, but most are)

Here are the final results:

WINNER: funishment with 34 minutes

Second place: Omomon with 51 minutes

Third place: Christopher The Pimp Abra who was only a few seconds behind Omomon

The else:

MemeAddict with 52 minutes

Tristan who submitted his last picture at 55 minutes

Mellow was only a few seconds behind Tristan

Finally Jack Candle took 2 hours and 34 minutes. The poor bastard.

Also amanda b. and MemeMachine collaborated on finding the items and finished in 27 minutes but they said they weren't in it to win it.

BUT GET THIS.

Because of a) the small turnout and b) the fact I'm the nicest motherfucker in the whole damn world I'm willing to buy buttons for anyone who competed, except for funishment, funishment can have one of anything in the store, as promised.

All you have to do is send me the necessary information (preferably through email, so I can delete it when I'm done) for shipping which is Contact email, First Name, Last Name, Address, City, Postal/ZIP Code, Country, State (Americans only) and phone number.

If you don't trust me with the information I understand, but sadly, it's the only way I can get the stuff to you.

Thank you and see you next Community building contest!

Congrats, funishment. I started taking pictures for this (phone as camera), and before long, someone at work brought me lunch, I came back to the computer, and realized I couldn't finish in first or second place anymore.

So like all kind-hearted citizens on KYM, I set my phone on fire…
