the Time has come

Hello everyone,

You're probably wondering why it is I've been running around the forums lately acting like a crazy person. What does "IT" stand for? What is 08/07/06 all about?

All of us have our own separate lives but the one thing that brings us together is gaming. At GameTavern we not only discuss games, we play them to. Besides the arcade we have had our own unique contests including scavenger hunts, trivia challenges, and of course Survivor. This summer we take what was old and make it new again, all with the power of "IT".

Simply put, IT stands for Internet Treasure. Somewhere on Treasure Island there exists a GameTavern Golden Key which can be used to unlock a chest containing a valuable treasure. This summer sixteen people will begin the adventure of a lifetime. They will compete in challenges not only for immunity but also for clues to the location of the Golden Key. They will have to read the story, solve the clues and find the treasure. As before they must learn to adapt to their surroundings or they will be voted off the island. In the end only one will remain to claim the title of Sole Survivor.

Unlike previous Survivor contests this contest will consist of two parts, the Survivor portion and the Treasure Hunt portion. While only Survivor contestants will participate in Survivor, EVERYONE can participate in the Treasure Hunt. Survivor contestants will only have an advantage in that they will be the first to obtain new clues to the location of the GameTavern Golden Key. You do not need any special skills in order to participate in either contest. In fact anyone who can read can find the treasure. Simply go to the place described in the story and you will find your key.

The question on everyone's mind at this point is what are the prizes? The winner of Survivor will win a brand new game for the Nintendo DS! The person who finds the GameTavern Golden Key will be able to unlock a chest which contains....something bigger.

Join us this summer on Treasure Island for Survivor V: Hunt for the Golden Key. See you there.
