[Yoda9864]

I got some easy ones out of the way :)

[manasecret]

Let's see, of the harder ones I can do:

10. A penguin, using a stuffed animal one
11. Beatles crossing a crosswalk
14. My parents surfing GT
16. picture of a tavern (most likely, according to Google Maps Benningan's is called a "Grill & Tavern") just depends I guess if the sign actually says "Tavern" I'm not sure it does
18. Mug with the word "Wood" on it (just going to print that out and tape it to one)
20. At a live event

My girlfriend is coming this weekend, and a lot of these I'll get her help with (Beatles one anyway), but I won't be able to post my photos until Sunday around 2:00 or 3:00 pm.

I can do a bunch of the others like garden and beach (pretty sure I can dig one up of me on a beach), and other easy ones like that.

I got some easy ones out of the way :)

Post what you got! This should be fun. :D Cross them out of your master list as we go.

[Yoda9864]

I'll be able to get #20 Friday night when I'm at a taping of Jeopardy.

next to lil superman!

oh yeah, in spanish the date format is dd-mm-yyyy

[thatmariolover]

I'll post as many as I can when I'm home. ~5:00 Central today.

[Swan]

Me and BaB have discussed it and no photos taken before we announced the contest will be allowed. All photos must be taken between then and Sunday.

[BreakABone]

Well 3 things.

1)I think any picture Yoda takes should have the Ewok in it somewhere. :p
2)All pictures have to be taken in the time frame of this challenge. Older photos won't be accepted.
3) Just like make an organized list crossing off the ones done with proper links or something.

Thanks

I may be able to get:
12. Pose with a employee of a game store
and/or
17. soldier(contestant) inside of a pizza delivery vehicle

Depending on how busy I am. My neighbor has a pizza delivery car he'd probably let me hop into and take a shot of me, and I used to work at a game store so assuming I get over there it'll be no problem getting one of them to pose.

New pictures:

20) Live Event: http://www.aplante.org/temp/pictures/DSC01009.JPG
That's right, number 20 is me at a taping of Jeopardy tonight! That was awesome! They were very strict about there being no photography. I had to beg them not to take my camera when I went in there. So I took this without a flash, so you can only see an outline of Wicket.

[Yoda9864]

I can't get a picture of my parents surfing GT since I live 350 miles away from them. So one of you guys should get that.

[Zen]

i think my entry should have a direct link to the image (http://img107.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc00537kp9.jpg) and not a direct link to my post.

[Yoda9864]

Sure.

Notice that Swan screwed up the Harvey Dent link. :p

Stuff for the campaign.

[manasecret]

Got the penguin. Post later. Will get Beatles and tavern definitely.

[manasecret]

I got the penguin, beatles, and tavern. I almost got the game store one while I was at the mall yesterday, but the damn manager quoted some new mall-wide rule saying photo-taking was no longer allowed anywhere in the mall! I told him that was bollocks, but he stuck to his story.

Will get the parents surfing GT, the garden, the mug with "Wood" printed out and taped on it, probably be able to the game store one. That's all I can get methinks.

I will have to post later, my monitor died so right now I'm looking for a good place to buy another one.

[Zen]

I was going to be able to get the arcade one but i wont have time to take the trip for that anymore :/

By the way, getting that game store one was so friggin' hard! Like I said, the first Gamestop I went to in the mall said it was mall-wide policy that photo-taking is not allowed (which turns out is true, but still, throw me a bone jeez).

So I went today and tried another Gamestop outside of a mall, and the guy there said it was store policy not to allow photos. He said they're worried that I might post it on the internet citing some terrible experience I had there. Which made me smirk.

I almost gave up. But I tried once more, this time at a GameCrazy, and, again, the guy said it was against store-policy as well. Jesus, what is with these anal employees at these places? But an employee there decided to eschew the rules and let me take one, citing some big contest he was a part of on the NeoGAF forums that had a similar photo-hunt.

[Yoda9864]

Hahaha, your parents seem really interested in the GT forums!

haha do you know who from NeoGAF? (I post on those forums as well though oddly never knew they had a similar contest :p )

[Yoda9864]

Is this what you were looking for for campaigning for Harvey Dent?

[manasecret]

haha do you know who from NeoGAF? (I post on those forums as well though oddly never knew they had a similar contest :p )

Haha no, I didn't ask. Obviously he's the guy in the photo, though I guess that doesn't help. Could've sworn he said NeoGAF, but he said the prize was like $4000 on top of a bunch of other stuff, so if you haven't heard of that then I must have heard wrong.

Zen, too bad about the high score one! I went to an arcade thinking there might be some long neglected game that I could get a high score on, but I didn't find anything. And I don't know any pizza delivery people, and asking to get a photo from inside one would be tough. :D

[Yoda9864]

You should've just unplugged it and reset the high scores. Wait, does that still work? Probably on older machines.

[Zen]

yeah i was just gonna do it on xmen vs street fighter which loses the score every night as they turn it off.

[manasecret]

Ah hell I knew I shoulda asked the workers if there were any easy ones to get a high score on. I figured all the games saved the high scores in eeprom or flash so they wouldn't get erased at power down.

[thatmariolover]

I think well done overall. I'll try to contribute more to the next challenge.

It was a good group effort from everyone. We all did what we could do.

Zen, do you live right near that beach?? It's beautiful! The water especially. Ohh it reminds this old man of his bygone days on the beaches of the Mediterranean in Malta... :baby:

[Zen]

That beach is about half an hour away from me with no traffic.
