homestar92 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) Last season, TOPGUN1993 started a photo chain game. This ended up being a very popular offseason game, so I'm going to copy over his rules (with a few modifications that I felt would be acceptable) and start the game back up for this offseason. It'll help us kill time until we're all riding our new Flying Purple People Eater Rules: The post above yours will have three choices of locations in the park one "easy," one more specific "hard," and an extremely specific "expert." Feel free to use unanswered challenges as your own challenges! If no one responds for over 2 days or so feel free to skip the photo and move on. Use your personal photos you've taken. No searching the net for photos. Keep photo locations CURRENT (Not necessarily previous season, but use common sense) Try to compress your pictures at least a little if you can, for bandwidth sake. Most image hosting sites will take care of this for you. BE CREATIVE Your goal is to answer the Expert levels before the Easy levels Easy: (A basic simple practical location in the park) Hard: (A more specific practical location in the park) Expert: (Very specific practical location in the park) I'll start things off with a challenge rather than a picture. Easy: A picture taken in Action Zone Hard: The Graveyard set up in Action Zone to coincide with the Banshee announcement Expert: A park-approved picture from a normally off-limits location (should be easier than in years past for many of you ) Once any of the challenges have been answered, you must respond to the new challenges placed by the previous poster. Feel free to reuse an unanswered idea, though. Edited November 7, 2013 by homestar92 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homestar92 Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 I'm going to use Malem's challenges since he responded first. But, that is a nice picture CP&LERR Fan.

ohiocolts Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 CP&LERR, you should probably space out the Easy: Photo of blah blah, because it comes up as Easy:Photo of blah blah blah. Though I think it is a funny error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homestar92 Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 The photo of SoB's construction may be a bit too long ago to be considered "current". I would personally consider current to be within the last 2 or 3 years. So your first 2 are fine, but perhaps think about changing your third challenge?
