#58?

... is missing?.. RK

 

[Roadkill]

#5 (generations) clarification?

#5 asks for, "A photo with someone from each of the following generations: 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s (25 points each)."

+What do you mean by generations? In their twenties, thirties, etc.? If so, what is meant by "2000s"?

Alternatively, did you mean perhaps "born in the 1920s, 1930s," etc., whereas the "2000s" makes more sense?

Ride on.

Another ? for #5 (and beyond)

#5 asks for, "A photo with someone from each of the following generations: 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s (25 points each)."

+What do you mean by generations? In their twenties, thirties, etc.? If so, what is meant by "2000s"?.. Alternatively, did you mean perhaps "born in the 1920s, 1930s," etc., whereas the "2000s" makes more sense?..

+I've got a few more questions. How will you score single images of multiple "generations" (when that's defined)? For example, when someone presents a single photo identifying many people from multiple generations, will that score multiple points (for the identified generations)? Or should we be providing individual shots?

Ride on.

Group shot is fine as long as age groups are identified

Farm or decorative windmills don't count. Other than that, I don't care what it's made of

I amended the item description

Googledoc has fixed something that wasn't broke so I'm having problems getting the pictures to come up in the template. Will keep working on that issue. Please bear with me and Photobucket for a while.

 

[chris56]

can someone make a "printable" formular .. or something like that ??

 

[Yazz]

Looking forward to seeing your pictures.

I print off Irish's 'Scavenger Hunt Items' that are on the first page of this thread.

Last year, Brevet shared a Googledoc template he made. It was great! Here it is in action:

http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16278&highlight=Scavenger+Hunt&page=17

I'm trying to make a new Googledoc template but it still needs some work. Will share it when the kinks get worked out.

Scavenger Update 121810

+The jerry-rigged fender is holding up okay, but I did need to replace both lower zip ties and the lower right side baling wire after today's ride.

Yesterday's ride to work started at 16*F. I was comfortable in the Tourmaster Centurion, but I brought the winter lining and installed it before the 33*F ride home, after which I was snugly warm.

Have all the bugs worked out of my Googledoc except for how to put the pictures in the right boxes. :helpsmilie:

Hubby and I went on our annual Christmas Morning Ryde. We used to take pictures of the bikes in places they shouldn't be. This year, we took pictures of Spydee in places she shouldn't be for the Scavenger Hunt. Some you can only get on Christmas Morning.
