Evo Picture Game (II)
The original Evo Picture Game has finally met its death. On to Version II.
This game is very simple and gives us an extra opportunity to take really random pictures of our gorgeous cars, and get to know some members better. The idea is to have requests so simple, that people are racing to get the pic posted. Get it? We like to race here. When the requests are too difficult or specific, it kills the game. When the first one started, I was checking my phone on the way to work to make sure no one else posted yet!
Think of this as a scavenger photo hunt. The point is to get out and take the picture! I know some of us have Evo's up on jackstands, but half of the requests will still be able to be fulfilled.
It's very simple:
Someone posts a request: Evo with a ......
First person to post a photo of their Evo with the ...... gets to post up the next request.
Duplicate requests are OK! (As long as the same person does not reply with the same EXACT picture. It can be the same car, same location, but let's go get a new pic.
If a request is not met within 24 hours, it will be void.
The default request will be Evo with a Book.
This keeps the game moving, and we all have books. Again, no posting of duplicate photos!! If you want to fulfill the default request in the future, you must post a NEW photo. Can be the same Evo with the same book, but not the same EXACT picture. The last post will have a time stamp on it, so you'll know when the 24 hours is up.
In order to keep the game running, requests need to be easy and not too specific. Like:
- Evo at the gas station.
- Evo with a flower.
- Evo next to a Mercedes.
The game stops being fun when we ask for:
- Evo at a Sheetz (I know those are in PA, but not in NY)
- Evo with a Lady Slipper (Those flowers quite illegal to pluck from the ground)
- Evo next to a purple 2011 SLS AMG Gullwing (you're getting the point now)
The idea is to ask for something that 99% of people (across the world, in different time zones, in different climates) can snap a crappy camera phone pic and try and beat the next person to the post. Although if you have a lovely camera, the nicer the better!
You can ask for random objects, people voguing in weird poses, picture with your favorite magazine, color... Anything really. And if it's a tough request, use your imagination. I once googled a bizarre cartoon character and pulled it up on my phone, and took a picture of my phone in my car. Satisfied. Evo with a custom wing... see my avatar
Red Bull gives Ricer wiiiiiings!
Must be your Evo, or your wife's/husband's... As long as you're the one driving it.
And PLEASE don't ask for requests that may put someone in danger. Stopping on the side of the expressway to take a picture just isn't safe or smart.
We tried keeping score once, but it's way too difficult with so many people playing. If you're a hardcore player and are killing it in points, keep track in your signature. A little friendly competition never hurt anyone. (Famous last words...)
If you need a place to upload your photos:
TinyPic

PhotoBucket

IMGUR
Game on.
First challenge:
Evo with an energy drink. GO!
AND DON'T FORGET TO POST THE NEXT REQUEST WITH YOUR PHOTO!!!
