I just spent the day powering through Season 1 of Revenge :D so your first item is a physical book or dvd copy of The Count of Monte Cristo && a fire extinguisher.

Just go to a Barnes and Noble or any large book store. They bound to have both (hopefully).

I didn't even realize I was standing in front of a fire extinguisher at Barnes and Noble! I was just trying to avoid getting caught taking a selfie, but I somehow unintentionally managed to get a fire extinguisher in the shot too :p

We are down to the final 2 and it is the Showdown Round!

 

Round 14:

 

Item 1:An over-sized novelty of something, could be anything as long as it's larger than conventional size. Examples of things that are acceptable: 3ft pencil because although it may write it's not feasible to own one for the purpose of writing, 14 inch replica of a penny. Not acceptable: balls, cups, sharp-edged blades, things that still retain utility while grossly over-sized.

 

"Item" 2: A photograph of someone that is not yourself in their place of employment(not a residence) and their nametag posing with you while you are hopping on one leg with one hand on your head, presumably tapping it while the other hand is circling your belly.

 

 

All players may participate in this round for points but if one player in the top 2 completes while the other does not, the contest is over is as there is now only 1 player with an unbroken streak.

 

Showdown rule: If neither finalist(top 2) gets it in the first 24 hours then the contest goes to the first person in the top 2 to complete while everyone else can only score points if done in 24 hours. If both finalists complete this on time then showdown #2 starts.

 

Current leaderbeard:

notes:

 

1 and 2 are tied

3 and 4 are tied

5 can overtake 3 and 4 if he completes and they don't

That is one sexy green rectangle on the bottom right-ish of the graph.

How can you tell if someone if hopping in a photo? They could totally totally be just posing instead of making a complete fool of themselves as to which I assume the "Item" is meant to accomplish.

Standing on one leg is fine enough

What about over-sized items that only serve as decorations? I'm having a hard time thinking of items that would be acceptable.

 

I'm also not very happy about the fact that we're being asked to interact with people and make a fool out of ourselves as opposed to just searching for an uncommon object. I have social anxiety :(

Yeah I went to Walmart last night and the only oversized things they had were xmas ornaments, a clock, and doodle paper. Although oversized, in theory all are still usable towards their original design despite how big they are...

Nothin from me this round due to #1 and time constraints aka work. #2 would be a breeze tho, jus visit a friend at work or become ougoing for a couple seconds or something.

If I actually left my house once in a while I might enjoy this round lol.
But we never have the items being asked for and I don't drive so I can't just pack up the kids and go. Haha.

Let's see it. I will judge it by how impractical it is compared to it's original purpose.

 

Also, I had to get creative because you people are too good.

 

You only have yourselves to blame >.>
