Scavenger Hunt #2: WTF IS that thing?

At the scheduled challenge start time, I will make a post in your tribe forum. In it, I will provide you clues for various “things” found around ForumWarz. You are to figure out what thing each clue refers to and post a screenshot showing that thing, demarcated in some way (circle it, box it, whatever — it must be annotated in the screenshot). Each screenshot must show the thing, the demarcation, and your character’s “welcome” message name (as proof you’re not doing it on an alt). (You may need the full screenshot utility to ensure you can get your welcome message in the same image.)

I will also specify something specific about that thing, that you must do in order to have a successful screenshot. For lack of a better term, let’s call this the “change”.

For each clue you decipher, and have at least one screenshot for, make one thread in your tribe forum. The thread title should be the solution to the clue (the thing “name” ), and the OP needs to contain the clue you found the thing with.

Within each thread, post your screenshots for that thing, along with clearly specifying which “change” the screenshot is for. You may post the shots in one post or many, and you may edit the posts as you wish.

I will count up the number of correct screenshots for each correct thing*. This number will be your score.

The following will NOT be included in your score: Incorrectly solved clue threads. Any screenshots posted in threads where the title is not the correct thing name, or where the OP does not include the clue. Any threads or posts created or edited before or after the end time of the challenge.

If you post the same thing multiple times it will count once and only once (no penalty for dupes).

The winning tribe will be the one with the highest score as defined above. The losing tribe will go to tribal council where the 7th person will be voted out of the game.

In the doubtful event of a tie, I will go through the following tiebreakers in order:

1) The team with the most number of tribemates participating (most tribemates who posted at least one correct thread and at least one correct screenshot).

2) The team with the most number of correct clues deciphered (with a minimum of one screenshot).

3) The team whose last correct screenshot posted as a separate post (not an edited one) was posted earliest.

If there’s still a tie at that point, we will have no winning tribe and move on. Details to be announced.

*[You may think a clue refers to something other than what I had intended. I’ll judge these on a case-by-case basis and may allow them if you can convince me that your solution is as equally indicated by the clue as the one I had in mind. If need be I will pull in a judge to make a call.]

The challenge will end exactly one hour after my post about this challenge in your tribe forum.

An example Posted:

Clue: poet, lover, healer, friend, goddess, not here, third line

Change: Show adjacent to the the fix it guy on a camwhore and an emo kid.

Solution (thread title): Opheliamammary glandsupp OR OpheliaTistupp’s away message OR some variation thereof

OP of the thread: “poet, lover, healer, friend, goddess, not here, third line”

This would be an acceptable screenshot:

Where the screenshot is posted you would also have to say something like “adjacent to Bruce Bear on a camwhore”
