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)

Awww......are you sure? Any member of the crypt is welcome to join. Since there is still plenty of room there's no rush, i hope at least one of you reconsiders it'd be cool to have 'delegates' - so to speak from all kinds of different agencies. A few of my fellow zombies are in, it would be a shame to complete the undead aspect by having my contest minus a few Vampires. You're free to withdraw but i sincerely hope you and your agency mates you are more the welcome and highly encouraged to join. :)

25k is going to take a pretty long time. But if everyone else is cool with that so am I :)

I also don't think it's possible to have other agencies not participate and I sort of like that chaotic element as well. But that will extend the contest even longer because well be competing against PW sharers and seasoned hunting agencies.

I propose 15k. If it goes too quickly, then the next one could be extended.

Also I'm planning on donating some of my money to the contest, because two 12 person agencies cost a lot to run, with daily rent being pretty high.

15k or 25k either is for all of you guys to decide upon, im very open for suggestions on this number. Like i said, i want it challenging but i dont want to take up TOO much time with this, but i dont want it too easy. So whatever the consensus is, i shall make it so. And i wont ask for contributions but obviously i won't turn any down. :)

I like the idea of 15k. It can always be modified for the next contest :)

Jason, I'm dubious about the participation in the pageant at this point, we may just have to revert back to the pretty avatar thing and that can be done at any old time, I suggest you do this first. Everyones really eager for it. :)
