YWS Scavenger Hunt
Summary: You have 48 hours to search the entirety of YWS and beyond for answers to our fiendishly difficult Scavenger Hunt. Every person entering may also send Rydia or Meshugenah a pm after the contest is completed to request the correct answer to any one question.
How to enter: PM the entry to Rydia and Meshugenah!
Questions and comments should be made in the DT. If you want, you can post in this thread and simply say 'I've entered' to scare off the competition. In fact, there's a bonus point in it if you're super scary!
