In just under six weeks, the 31st Summer Olympics and the 15th Paralympics will occur in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Athletes from over 190 countries around the world will gather to compete in some 35 different overall sports over a period of about 3 weeks.
Many people have commented recently that they would like to see some more activities taking place here on Sleuth. A few of us creatively evil types were wondering if we put together a series of activities for people, would y'all be interested??
We are looking for at least 8-12 people, of all experience levels; both hunters (treasure, casework, and Arch Villain) and writers will be needed. People will be competing in a team format. We're probably looking at Subbed players for now, but we're working on having at least two activities (not necessarily part of the teams, but supplemental to them) that will be exclusive to UNSUBBED players. All of these activities will have an Olympics theme.
So. Any takers?? ;-)
Please let us know below.
Thank you!!

It was a surprise for me too, Ben made me a Gribbly Widget all of his own accord. The description reads:
"Pusher of bits. Scribbler of scripts."

Man, I wish I got a title like you guys - ah well, I'll just have to suffice with my honorary title of "Ice cream sales woman of the year" :)

I've got a couple questions for everyone. ;-)
What events and activities in the Olympics did you like?? What EVENTS/ACTIVITIES would you like to see in the next Olympics (ie. -- a cheerleading competition, a cocktail creation competition, etc. ;-)??
I'm looking for feedback about things people liked in these games, and what they would like to see in the next games. Any suggestions you guys can give me I would *REALLY* appreciate.
I've gotten a number of messages from people expressing their enjoyment in participating in these Olympics. I'm glad all of you had a good time. Again, I'd like to thank all of you (including the Judges and Riza and Squirrel, my Evil Associates ;-), for joining in. You all did a great job!! ;-D
Thanks again, and I look forward to reading your comments!! ;-)

P.S.--If, for some reason, you are too shy to post a comment here on the boards, please feel free to PM me. I'll be happy to chat with you. Thank you. B. ;-)

I would like to see 4x4 AVH relay, I would keep the scavenger and treasure hunts as well.
The haiku contest was fun but the amount of writing contests I would like to see trimmed a bit. Or a lot actually.
Definitely NOT a cheerleading competition.

:-( You didn't like the cheers?
I'm in agreement with BadAss on the writing. The haiku contest was fun and easy enough for everyone to try their hand at it. Also, I wasn't a big fan of the agency judging. Once again it came down to the amount of writing and content in each agency. Also it is very subjective. Plus not every member may participate frequently on the boards, but may discuss ideas through P.M.'s and or private chat groups.
I liked the idea of the Intro's and twist/closure, and that they will be featured in the game.
Maybe give out the criteria for those at the very beginning of the Olympics and have them due during the last week. But I would suggest one or the other, not both.
4x4 AVH sounds like a great idea.
