Detailed Rules

At the start of the tournament,

You will receive a task list via email. Everyone receives the same 100 tasks. You have two hours to complete as many items as you can; the game starts when you get access to the list.

It is required that you film yourself doing every task, or take a photo of the completed task. To confirm that it is you, you’ll need to appear clearly in the photo or video.

Instructions on how to submit your tasks will be provided after registration.

The list will test your knowledge of the area you live in and your breadth of skillset.

The “Best Of” category is a direct competition with other players. These points will be awarded to players who perform the best at that specific task as decided by our judging team.

Anything you might need to complete a task will be communicated before the event day.
