Will this involve getting to a new place before someone else? If so, is that such a good idea lol?!
As mentioned; Drew and I have been organising a hunt as April's Euro event. We're in the final stages of planning and I'm making this thread so people keep the day free.
Starting location: Scenic Drive, Mt Coot-tha.
Starting time: Be there at 10.30 for registration, for a starting time of 11am.
Cost: $5 (to cover food costs and prizes).
Requirement:
A full tank of fuel.
A GPS unit is recommended if you aren't familiar with Brisbane and its street names, but it won't help you get to the destination faster.
At least two people per car - reasons will be clear on the day.
Lunch will be provided at the finishing line.
Illegal activities are not encouraged or condoned in this event.
This challenge is based on a series of instructions and tasks which the teams must complete in order to gain the most points. Creativity, skill and humour are crucial components to being successful. As this is a family friendly event, please keep everyone's safety in mind.
This event will be posted on a few forums, but feel free to invite anyone with a Euro car!

Having run stacks of these style of events in the past, I found these two the best methods of preventing speeding...
Either...
1. Time yourself doing the trip at the speed limit, and record that time. Do not publish this, but tell all entrants that for every minute under that time they will be severely punished in terms of overall points/result.
OR
2. The best one we did revolved around challenges that required us to take photos of things (often the entrants doing silly things, like humping a police car, or one challenge we had was to take a photo of a team member swimming) on the scavenger hunt and giving each entrant a list far bigger than they would likely be able to achieve in the allocated time. Because there was such huge flexibility to the number of options, there wasn't as much of a rush for teams to complete the challenges, and as such they were less likely to speed.
Either way, sounds good... I'm keen!

One hunt I participated in was well organized, we were given a time limit, like 2 hrs to complete as much of the list as possible. Way too many for anyone to complete all which gave flexibility to peoples knowledge, skills, risk taking etc. Certain tasks worth more points then others, as some may be harder, time consuming etc. We had some that had huge risks, like getting naked and running up Milton (hahah that was fun I might add). That was worth way more points then say "high fiving a stranger".
Every task be filmed or photo as evidence. If you want task ideas my housemate has a tonne. She organized it, went so well
