ScavengerHuntWinner

Since I thought it was easier to print out your responses to check the answers, we used the 8 responses that had all correct answers.  Then we scrunched them up into balls and Mags picked one.  Sometimes it’s easier to be low tech.

We want to thank the Fifty Shades of Grey Official Jewelry at:

http://fiftyshadesofgreyfinejewelry.com/ for sponsoring the hunt with the pair of riding crop earrings.  I have to say, I was tempted to keep them for myself.ridingcrop_earringsCrissy

Scavenger Hunt Results

We would like to thank everyone who participated in the scavenger hunt.  We know a lot of you were at work or working on phones.

A couple things did come out of the scavenger hunt:
We learned that different versions of the books had different names for Prescott, either Samantha or Belinda.  We did give credit for both.
I didn’t look this up, but it seems that Kate’s first had his name spelled differently, about half of the people spelled it Steve Paton the other half Steve Patrone.  We did give credit for both.

The first meal Christian and Ana had together got a couple different answers and since the question wasn’t very specific were a bit more lenient on that one.  But we were looking for the breakfast at The Heathman.

Some common mistakes:
A lot of people got question #18 wrong, we needed both the 76th floor and Columbia Tower.
A lot of people only put in that Christian cut up peppers, but they were red peppers.
The graduation gowns were red and black.

But my favorite answer was to the question about Christian’s favorite movie, that answer was The Graduate.

Here’s to you Mrs. Robinson….

If you would like, we would be happy to email out the list of questions to you at 11 AM on September 10. Send us an email to latersbaby50(at)gmail(dot)com (or click the link to the right) requesting an email list of questions.

UPDATED: Scavenger Hunt on August 11

We have chosen a date for the New York City Scavenger Hunt, August 11, 2012 at 2:00 PM.

We are still planning to do an online scavenger hunt; however, we wanted to work out the details of this meet up first before committing to another scavenger hunt.

Date:  August 11, 2012
Time: 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Location: East side of Union Square Park, across from Babies R Us, between 14th and 16th Street
Nearest subway lines: N, Q, R, 4, 5, 6
Mags and I will be wearing “Laters, Baby” T-Shirts
Registration: http://fiftyshadeshunt.eventbrite.com/

What will you be hunting for?
Fifty Shades stuff of course!  Sadly none of the book takes place in NY so we’re improvising.

* There will be a few adult items, but not many. You will be able to bring a child with you if you would like and skip those items.
* There will be a few items for purchase, you’ll need to keep the receipts. You are welcome to return them after the hunt if you would like and the store allows it.
* You will need a camera, camera phones are fine.  There will be a lot of photo opportunities.  We reserve the right to inspect your camera photos before the hunt.
* You may form teams with a maximum of 4 people, we encourage you to name your team – be creative!  You’ll need to take a photo of your team at the start of the event so we can reference it when counting points.

Registration:
We have created an Eventbrite registration page, please register ahead of time.  That will help us figure out how many people are coming so we can prepare ahead of time.  We will allow you to register up until the start of the event.
http://fiftyshadeshunt.eventbrite.com/

Fees:
In order to get people to register early and recoup some of the costs of the scavenger hunt the event will be free for the first 25 registrants and $5 for everyone after that.
Some other notes:
* There will be prizes, we just don’t know what yet.
* We would love to go out for a drink after and get to know you.
* You’ll probably want a Metro card for the day, you will have to travel around the city, primarily Manhattan.
* You may use your phone/Internet/phone a friend for help.

If you have any questions please post in the comments section so that everyone can reference the information.

If anyone is interested in sponsoring the event, please send us an email: latersbaby50(@)gmail(dot)com.

Hope to see you there,
Crissy and Mags

UPDATE (July 26):  We will have some jewelry and T-Shirts as prizes, we’re continuing to work on more prizes.
