IFC Season 2 Round 14 - Kryptocek's Scavenger Hunt

Hello there! Welcome to our digital spaceship castle.

Hi again IFC peoples. :)
Once again apologies for getting the challenge out numerous hours later than usual. I've been pretty busy and it took me a while to prepare this one.

Looks like we've got around four more weeks until the finals start! I'm excited. There's been a ton of great entries and it's been quite a fun season, I can't wait to see who becomes the next champion!

So.. To remind you, you only need to score one single point during the regular season to get into the finals, if you haven't scored a point yet.. You may wanna make an effort on these final 6 challenges of the regular season!

Anyways.. Let's keep this moving shall we? Onto the next round!

The subject of our fourteenth quest is.. "Kryptocek's Scavenger Hunt"

This one is named after one of our star players @kryptocek during the first season who came up with this idea.

The object is to go out into the real world and find and take pictures of items on a list that I have created for you.

You also must write IFC and the date on a piece of paper and hold it in the frame when you take the picture so we can be more sure that the images weren't just pulled off the internet somewhere.

Here's an example of what that should look like from an earlier round.

This is absolutely one of my most favorite rounds as I love the rounds that get people into the real world. :D

Here are the items you should try to find and the amount of points you get for them.

Video Game 1
Toy Monster 1
Stream 1
Bike 1
Skateboard 1

Gold 3

You get double points if you take a picture of a real item.
For example any of those things you could find a picture of in a book or on a sign or painting or something like that, but if it's a real item like a real butterfly instead of a picture of one then you get double points.

The items can be ones you own or which are in your house, but it's against the rules to go on a computer or TV to pull images from the internet or movies/video games/tv.

There will be no judging on this round in the traditional sense and the winner is the one who gets the most points, if anyone manages to tie in points there will be a tie breaker.

Also.. Please don't film any private property or people without their permission. Please try to make sure you're either on your own property, or a public place or you have permission to film where ever you are.

Here's a link to the original round last season if you'd like to learn more.

Also if you have any questions lemme know!
Good luck!!

So far we have received support and 10steem from @underground and I have confirmed that @ats-david @krnel @timcliff @steemcommunity and @ura-soul will also be supporting us this season.

Underground, ats-david, krnel, timcliff, steemcommunity, and ura-soul are all witnesses, so if you support what we are doing here at the IFC please look into them and give them a vote for witness as well. By the way to vote for ats-david you should vote for his @ats-witness account.

Also it looks like @ecoinstar will donate 100 shares of steembasicincome to the winners, with 60 SBI going to the grand prizer winner, 25 SBI to second place and 15 SBI to third place.
And thanks to @bengy for delegating 25 steem. :)
A special thanks as well to @davemccoy and @newbiegames and @newbieresteemday who are not technically sponsors but we have worked with them in the past. Looks like newbiegames and newbieresteemday have been inactive for months though we still use their tags for the time being.

The challenge will finish after 7 days when the post ends and provides its payout cycle or when all entries have been submitted.

25% of the post payout goes to curation and after that what's left will now be split up 75% to the winner of the round and 25% to put towards building up the @ifc account.

For those who play via email.. This will be recorded and saved for you, and.. If you're unwilling to make your own steem account we will at some point be willing to convert it for you to whichever currency however.. Not for small amounts, you must earn at least 10 steem for us to take the time to do this for you.
