People of Sleuthville, lend me your ears!
I call out now to all you tomb-raiders and treasure seekers! To those who love the thrill of a good treasure hunt!

In the spirit of friendly competition i propose a challenge.
This challenge will require 10 adventurous detectives to be split onto 2 Teams, each team consisting of 5 members, in 2 newly made Agencies of my own making in NY.

These two agencies will compete against each other in Treasure Hunts.
The first team to get their agency to 7,000 Fame wins:

$200,000 Prize to be split among the team evenly.
(Working out to $40,000 a piece for each teammate...not too shabby huh?)
Also each team after the contest ends will vote amongst themselves on who alone among their team was MVP (someone who went above and beyond, did a really excellent job, etc) The MVP's from Both teams will win a 3 month gift subscription from me personally.
You also win bragging rights and honor for your home agencies on being an awesome treasure hunter.
Whether your team chooses single or multi-city hunt strategy is entirely up to you.

Obviously this competition will run for a while, (I'm venturing a guess at anywhere between 2 weeks to a month depending on how luck smiles on you or how good you and your teammates are).

It goes without saying that you would be required to resign temporarily from whatever agency you are currently in to join my competing agencies for the contest. You are allowed to enter an alternate detective if you wish if you're too attached to have your main detective leave your agency, and the only rules are:

1) Absolutely NO Password Sharing.
2) Only one entry per contestant
3) Have fun.

I want to know who among you treasure hunters really has what it takes to come together and co-ordinate as a team to truly be the best.

(Cont'd)

The teams will be randomly assigned by me and contestants will be on a first come first serve basis.
I am planning to host this event after Riza's AVH Competition and also after Molly's Beauty contest.
So plenty of time to sign up and prepare. :)

Man this sounds like an awesome idea... one questions though.

Is this 7,000 in total fame, or just fame from treasure hunts? Since cases give fame...

I may have to resub the son to do this...

First agency to 7,000 fame though i would prefer you guys get the fame through Treasure Hunts, since this is a treasure hunting competition. I'll leave the easy cases vs AI cases strategy up to the competitors.

Okay people who are interested so far, Ive been getting some feedback that 7,000 fame from Treasure Hunts isn't enough of a challenge, so.....


*rubs hands together* Let me ask you, where do you think the bar SHOULD be raised to? If you want the limit pushed higher i can go higher, i originally considered 12,000 fame but i wasn't sure if id have any takers with that. I also considered a time limit but due to the random nature of treasure hunts i decided against that, I also decided against setting a goal with how many treasures each team gets, so instead of "First to 10 treasures wins" i prefer to set a "first to x-amount of fame wins" The fame aspect (i think) makes it a little more challenging. So folks, persuade me to up the ante so to speak.

I'm listening.
