Jayaraych's blog: "Fubar Happenings"

Since my last scavenger hunt was such a success I have decided to have some fun with a second one. 

Every week until xmas  I will post clues to 3 items, The 1st clues will be given out on Friday and a 2nd clue for each item will be given out the follwong Monday. Your job is to figure out the item and create a salute with that item in it somewhere, Since it is a salute you must be in the shot of course and my screen name must also be in the physical shot (ie not shopped into it or digitally captioned).

Each week the point values will double. (1st week=1, 2nd=2, 3rd=4, 4th=8)

Points awarded: 1 point unit for having the 1st correct answer,

                        1 point unit for having a correct answer before the 2nd clue,,

                        1 point unit for a correct entry before the answers are revealed with the next week's clues

                        1 point unit for best correct entry as judged by me.

                        1 point unit for correct entry that draws the most spectator support.

                        Up to i point unit per every 3 entries as merit points (note that these may be fractional values if need be, and may be awarded to incorrect entries that were creatively meritorious ) 

Late entries:  contestants who join the game late may submit correct entries from previous weeks for half a point unit, and may be eligible for half a point unit of merit if it creates a new unit. 

Multiple entries; allowed and encouraged  but only one will get points for being correct. They do however count as an entry towards the merit pool, and may each get points out of that pool. 

Entries should be sent directly to me and not posted in your own folder (you don't want to be giving the answers away) if you don't have my text number you can email silveroak23@gmail.com or fumail a link to an external hosting service, skype send, dropbox box, etc)

Thesubject line or filename of your entry should be labeled with the week and item number and the name of the item. While there is no harm in having the other items in the shot, each item has to have its own entry, in other words if you have items a and b in the shot, you must pick which item you are getting credit for, and take another shot of them that differs at least slightly to submit for credit for the other item.

Once the answer is revealed you may post outtakes on your own page if you wish, but I request that your official entries not be until after the contest itself ends. 

As always, you may also request that I use a placeholder for any entry if you have any privacy concerns.

The judge (me) may be bribed for additional  clues but will not confirm or deny that your answer is correct. The emphasis here is on creativity 

The prizes: 

The Grand prize will be a HH with 2 SAs or the equivalent (winner pays futaxes if direct credits are chosen)

2nd place will be a HH or equivalent

There will be other prizes for things like most correct entries, best overall entry, spectator support, further place tiers depending on participation levels. Every single entrant will win something
