    The list. We should be discussing this now. Where do we begin?

    We’re actually going to have an open thread on Fark to make suggestions for the list.

    =”ennuipoet”]Derp

    Fark’s Definition of Derp:

    /NOT trying to make this about politics! I am just posting a representative sample of what Fark would say Derp is.

    Possibly. There’s an open modmin thread, too, where we’re going to ixnay NSFW suggestions (like “boobies” or “pussyfarts”) and too-narrow-scope suggestions (like “The Taj Mahal” or “Drew Curtis”), although the latter might just get widened, so for the examples, it would be “Famous Architechture” and “Celebrities, real or internet.”

    It’s not that hard to get a picture of Drew. It’s not like we don’t all know where he works. You could just lay a trap for him by placing shots of whiskey somewhere w/ tasteful lighting near the office. On the other hand, a pic of Drew w/o a beer in his hand, that’s the shot you have to wait for until the moment is just right.

    Hey not to stir up controversy – but shouldn’t this week be Farktography Anniversary 7? 😀

    OH CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    And actually, it should probably be the 9th, as that’s the closest to the original anniversary of May 12. Crap crap crap…

    As for the scavenger hunt, I almost wonder if we shouldn’t come up with a long list of suggestions from everyone here that can be pre-vetted and used for the Fark thread. I’m just a little afraid even if we say from the get-go “No celebrities, no NSFW” it’ll be some other obscure thing that we don’t factor in that will get suggested there and chosen.

    +1 to both ideas (although I have no idea what the Anniversary contest would entail).

    Honestly, a couple/few weeks of lead time on the scavenger hunt list would be kind of nice. The title isn’t “procrastination” or “instant inspiration.” If we felt perky, maybe even link to it in the boobies for the few weeks leading up to it, so people who don’t usually frequent this forum have a bit less surprise, and participation might be a bit higher.

    I think orionid was planning on putting up the thread this Friday for suggestions (maybe next Friday). But I’ll say go ahead and make some non-celebrity, non-NSFW suggestions that we can start that thread off with. We are going to vet the most popular suggestions for anything ridiculously difficult.

    I’ll post the initial what should we shoot thread early tomorrow AM. Els, any chance you could grease the wheels with the other modmins to make sure it gets greenlit? This will give us about three weeks to scavenge once voting closes.
