The future of Mock Hunting

POSTED BY TMK ON PUCK POSSE SITE:

I know I've talked with a few people about this, but I wanted to see what others thought. So far this year we've had a lot of hunts which has been great, but I think that we should look at coming to an understanding on when to have hunts and how many we should have. AW's has been an annual event. But last year was the first time we had mock hunt throughout the year. Jake had a hunt, followed by Marley, then Jake again. Jake's last hunt was between Halloween and Thanksgiving I believe. We ended up that whoever found the treasure ran the next hunt. This year people have been starting hunts here and there. I like having more people who share the hunting passion, and having more competition. I personally think that we're having too many hunts. I think it takes away from those hunters with families, because it messes up their family lives. Houses aren't kept up as much, spouses are upset more, etc. Cell phone bills go up. People will get worn out. Prizes will be smaller. I know we all love hunting. It gets to be too much at times. I also know that people have hunts that they want to do. Holly has one, Reg has one, Kilty has another, the clownz have one, Lilman has one. I've had thoughts of having a hunt, and I know people like Ares and Me2 have thought of clues. I'd like for everyone to have the opportunity to run their own hunts. I think we need to spread things out just a bit more. Have a bit of a system or way about who has hunts when. What do you guys think?

MY RESPONSE:

No problemo, It'd probably be best if I waited with mine anyways. It'd be cool if my hunt could be an annual tradition. I'd be able to fine tune my clues a little better... unlike this year when i was changing clues even after the hunt had begun. So yeah --- I'm limiting myself to one hunt each year, shortly after the PP hunt. Maybe we could work out a schedule so Redbear and FrozenButtox could come in between my and AW's hunt each year, and more would follow after AW's.

What does everybody think?

Don't argue with me. Argue with the IRS agent doing the audit.

I don't think Terry wants to be reading about audits.

Ain't that the truth! Just finished answering the findings letter this week. Don't want to hear about an audit for a long, long time.
