Gahaha, no, not irl.
A scavenger hunt through gaia online.
This sort of thing was done to win a CoCo at my last guild.
It's a great idea.
There are riddles and clues to threads or coordinates in gaia towns or something.
You figure out the riddle to reveal where you are to go and do it. (One of ours was 'I didn't know these guys marched' and we had to check our threads. The word 'penguin' was edited in an old thread, bolded and the like. That thread with the answer had the next clue written on it. Obviously, a mod has to conduct this) At the end of it, you'll be finding a special something (In our contest, the final question was a riddle that was solved with random numbers. These numbers, I figured out, were actually coordinates to a place in gaia towns. I went to the coordinate and on the town board it said the secret word. I memorized it and told the thread creator and, since i was the first to report my finding, I won the contest.) and report it to your creator.
They then decide if you're correct or not. If you are - you win. If not, the scavenger hunt continues.
It took about a week to complete and it was VERY fun.
I hope I understood what you were saying. If not, I totally rambled and i'm sorry. Gahaha.
