Revscene.net Tag - 2013(Contest ending March 28th, 2013)

[rk604]

Stole the idea from bcsportbikes and thought it'd be a good idea for people who just find random reasons to go cruise or drive their car.

Introduction:
Someone posts a photo of their car at some random location. Someone else then posts a picture of their car at that spot. You are then awarded points based on "The Rules".

There will also be Bonus Rounds, posted up to give other individuals who are on the lower end of the scoreboard to catch up with the rest of participants

The Rules:
1. Tags are worth 1 point and will stay up for 24hours before it expires, allowing another member to post another picture up.
2. Points are awarded to the Tag FINDER.
3. Tags must include photo + location (ex. "Photo" "Byrne Marine Timmies")
4. When you find a Tag you have 1 hour to post a New Tag (fail to post = no points). After 1 hour anyone can post a new tag for 1 point.
5. The boundaries for the Tags are: the Border, Horseshoe Bay, Langley, the Ocean and Maple Ridge
6. When you post a New Tag it must be labeled “New Tag”.
7. Expired Tag point deductions: -1 point will be deducted for expired Tag and +1 point will be awarded for replacement new Tag. This will allow the game to progress and discourage tags that are close to impossible.
8. No off road/illegal tags
9. Pictures must remain active in order to receive points.
10. Tags must have some sort of landmark/sign or something unique that can be distinguished. This rule is present so that members don't post random pictures that is impossible to find. <--Added Jan 30



Additional Info:
The Rules are subject to change as required, all changes will happen in this post, that said changes will only happen if absolute necessary.

[kakucaekz]

I thought that when you posted a tag, you had to say where it was?

3. Tags must include photo + location (ex. "Photo" "Byrne Marine Timmies")

Aznboi's first tag has photo + location. He wrote "Downtown Convention Centre"

[Prolowtone]

I think he is confused. You only post the location of the one you found for your points, not the location of the following location you post for someone to find

[kakucaekz]

Oh I get it lol. One hour seems tough though :P

[duy-]

great idea, too small a time frame and locations hints may be needed for the less obvious ones. would be a great ongoing game if it didnt have that 1 hour cut off time, maybe days instead.

[Not really racist!]

this would work so much better durin the summer time hah

[kakucaekz]

Yeah, like maybe a day/24 hours to find a new spot and post?

roughly a 2 hour drive to go there and back to find out, l will hold out for another.

Days wouldn't really work, if no one finds the location then it will start to kill the game. need to keep it fresh and interesting

[JesseBlue]

The photo must be bright enough... Anyone can put a picture thats very dark...

Ex. Since aznboi tagged my post, he had 1 hour to post a photo to keep the game going. BUT when he does post the new tag up, it will stay up 24 hours before it expires.

Considering the amount of people in Revscene, i'm sure the time frame should fit just fine. The idea of the 1 hour limit is so that:
1. The game progresses
2. New photos could potentially be close to the original tag

Once you really get into it, you could start "banking" tags and make the new tag available right after you tag the previous tag.

@Jesse, AGREE...but aznboi's post is not dark to the point where we don't recognize where it is. Google maps is your friend

New Tag

[Sky_High]

^ wouldn't that one be borderline "off-road/illegal" as its not commonly accessible to the public?
