Our PAX East Scavenger hunt...

This is my first convention ever... and I know my wife and I will not see everything that there is to offer. I also tend not to remember to take enough pictures. So, I thought I'd make a game out of the three days to attempt to have as many pictures of this ,dream come true, adventure. So here is a list of things I thought my wife and I could attempt to find. Anyone care to add to this list please do. By the way this isn't for any prizes, I just thought I'd share to see if anyone else was doing something like this.

In the end the points don't matter, it is the fun of the game that does.

The first rule is you must ask if it ok with the person or persons before taking the picture

Each photo is worth 1 point
+2 points if you have yourself in the photo
+2 if you aquire a gamertag/ PSN ID / friendcode etc. or twitter of person or persons in the photo
Multiple photos of the same general theme count as long as it is a different person/s in photo other than yourself of course.

People playing Magic The Gathering

Pokemon cosplayer +10 points if also with someone with a "Ash" Hat on.

Star Wars cosplayer 10 extra if Leia is not the slave variety

Star Trek cosplayer +5 if a Red Shirt

Videogame Character cosplayer

Celebrity of any type +10 if they are Penny Arcade staff or part of the festivities i.e. musical guests/ panelists/ etc.

    I think there are actual scavenger hunt-like meta-games at PAX. The Guidebook app has the PAX XP game, but I haven't used it before. You may also find the Winning the PAX East Game panel helpful.

    N13, I would love to go to that panel, however, since it is going at the same time as the storytime with Cliff, I just can't miss that one.

    Since you've never been to PAX before I don't blame you but FYI this list is way too easy. You would probably be able to check off this whole list in the first morning of PAX!

    Well multiples pictures with different people are part of the hunt. What other stuff would you suggest? I really would love a huge list. I wanna take a boatload of pictures.
