Quick Update on A Blogger Scavenger Hunt

Alright, I've hard from tons of you about how you can't join in the fun of this scavenger hunt because of how much time it would take you to even do five (the required minimum) of the things on the list. So, I've decided to offer a few "alternant" choices for some of the activities, for those of you who were having a hard time with, well, time.

(Before I show you the "new" list I want to ask one thing. I wasn't sure which activities were the most time-consuming for all of you, so if you want to leave me a comment and let me know which ones you would like an alternant choice for that would be great. I might be able to make a few more changes.)

New Activity List For A Blogger Scavenger Hunt:

1) A picture of a child/person/pet doing something that you didn’t expect them to do or that they weren’t supposed to be doing- something random that you DID NOT plan or stage. Something messy, crazy, wacky, and possibly even dangerous. A picture of one of those moments that you freak out about initially, but that you laugh about later. (SIDE NOTE: I'm not going to change this one because I think it's easy enough. I will make one thing clear though, this doesn't have to be new. Like, if you already have a photo that fits this description and would like to use it feel free, you don't have to take a new one.)

2) The story behind picture # 1. (SIDE NOTE: Not going to change this one either, you don't have to write a LONG story if you don't want to, I just want to know what was happening in your photo.)

3) A book of some kind that is OVER 600 pages long. More literally a PICTURE or VIDEO that YOU took of a book this long. (SIDE NOTE: I'm not changing this one either, it's honestly not hard to find I book of this length. Number one, the video part is completely optional, I just want some kind of proof that you actually found the book.)

4) A brief synopsis of the above 600 word or more book. (SIDE NOTE: Again, I'm not changing this. You don't have to read the book. Just read the back if you want. I just want to know what it's about. Not hard, I promise.)

5) The link to a specific post on a blog where your name/blog is mentioned. THIS BLOG CAN NOT BE YOUR OWN. (SIDE NOTE: Again, I'm not changing this. It's not hard at all. I mean, I've mentioned a bunch of you guys (though I'd prefer you use someone besides me, you can use me if you have to) and I'm sure you all have friends who wouldn't mind mentioning you for the sake of this contest. Not hard guess, really.)

6) The highest stack of… something. Well, this one is EXTREMELY general. All you have to do is make a stack of SOMETHING (that’s right anything you want) as high as you can (because you want yours to be higher than ANY OTHER CONTESTANTS). Video and/or picture proof is necessary. The more proof you have, the easy it’ll be to judge who wins the contest of height. (SIDE NOTE: You do not have to have a video, I just need proof. And I do admit that this one can be a bit tedious, so, I'll offer a compromise for those of you who want it.)

Alternant 6) A picture that you've taken in the past or that you found somewhere (like google) of the highest stack of something. (SIDE NOTE: Just like the original, only now, you don't have to do the work. :D)

7) A picture of any ITEM that has been mentioned in this blog AT LEAST twice. You must post a picture that YOU TOOK of the item, preferably with YOU IN IT. You must also post links to the posts on this blog that the item was mentioned in. (SIDE NOTE: Though I refuse to think this is hard at all, since it's not, I will offer you a compromise.)

Alternant 7) A picture of any item I've ever mentioned on this blog. You don't have to be the one to have taken the picture. (SIDE NOTE: See, this is getting easier.)

8) A picture of yourself that mimics a picture that I have posted of myself on this blog. YOU can post a PICTURE that MIMICS ANY picture of ME that I have posted ANYWHERE on THIS BLOG. (SIDE NOTE: Though I know I should, I refuse to change this. It's not that hard. There are tons of pictures that are easily mimicked, and this one is just to much fun! I will change one thing though, it doesn't have to be a picture of me, it can be any picture I've posted no matter who it's of.)

9) Post the links to THREE other blogs that you read and enjoy. Tell us a little bit about them and WHY you enjoy them. (SIDE NOTE: This is in no way hard. You don't have to give me a detailed paper on each of them, just tell me in a few sentences why you like them.)

10) Compare me and you with the following questions. You must find all the answers to the questions about me by yourself, somewhere on my blog. When you post fill out the answers for ME and YOU. (Tip for completion: You are not REQUIRED to fill out the answers for yourself, only for ME. You just receive extra points for COMPARING us.)
· Name?
· Age?
· Number of siblings?
· Any pets?
· What state do I live in?
· What are a few of my passions in life?
· What is ONE fun fact about me? (one fact is required, any extra facts that you list will count toward more points.)
(SIDE NOTE: Don't worry, I'm offering a compromise on this one...)

Alternant 10) List one random fact about me that also describes yourself. (SIDE NOTE: Easier or harder? :P)
