We set up a light to turn on whenever players submit proof of a completed task. In fact, the light is on...right now! When we approve the proof, the light turns off again. The light originally comes from ikea. We found it on the street on a tab...

PROBLEM: Too Many Ravers. SOLUTION: Dance Dance Immolation. http://interpretivearson.com/ddi/whatis.shtml After months of construction, the end result was a machine (meets NFPA160! breaks no laws!) designed to set ravers on fire. Thank god i...

Life Imitates Art After a quick doodle to decide what sort of frame we wanted, we began foraging around for wood. We were pleased to discover that I already had some long, pre-stained pieces of wood hiding in my garage. This was especially conv...

This weekend several SF0 players found themselves in the middle of a zombie outbreak. To recap: A couple weeks ago I announced the event in SF0's news section. I said "Stand on the east side of Powell street between Market and O'Farrel. It's th...

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I were yearnin' t'post this 'ere proof fer a dog's age, but Cap'n Pie waited t'see if'n me mates were to join me in this presentat'n. Seemed proper as them's the ones who organized this 'ere pirate raid, but they be busyin' ...

remarkably enough, i managed to urban explore, right in my very own home. I was just beginning to move in, so while not technically "abandoned", it was moreorless "unoccupied" at the time. Just beginning to put things in my closet, i found a tiny doo...

Anna: Ever since I had first joined the game, I was frustrated and disappointed at my inability to eat a meal in that rooftop garden on Market Street. Everyday, coming off the MUNI at Montgomery St. on my way to work, I was reminded again... 'it's n...

This task was initiated by Loki, who had the awesome idea to have a bake sale to aid struggling banks. I thought this was a great way to critique/ridicule the reaction to the failure of banks in recent weeks, since the proposed $700 billion essentia...

quite a night. i've posted random pictures of the party and event set-up, and then, in no particular order, all of the evidence pictures. a big thank you to everyone who made this event happen (you know who you are).

I had no idea how to get ahold of a neurotransmitter. I didn't think it would go over to well if I went to the Army Docs and said, hey can you prescribe me a random neurotransmitter for a week for a game I'm playing? So, I did a little research and l...

There was once a delightful restaurant here in Jerusalem called "Parentheses" (sounds better in Hebrew: B'Sograim), in the Jerusalem cafe style - coffee and cakes, selection of pasta, fish entrees, and lovely (students scraping to get by) w...

I have formed a very tight bond with my rope....It loves me, keeps me warm where it touches...and (*blushes*) can even get me off if placed in the correct spot. Now if I can just convince my boyfriend to let me sleep with it.... I love my rope. ...

Wow. You learn a lot about people doing a task like this. Lincoln, Lank, Barbapoca and Heatherlynn all got together on a Saturday afternoon to do some trading. We decided to go to a heavily populated area and to dress up in costumes in order to at...

Notes on the sky-filled head shots: What better way to respond to a photo task accompanied by a sous rature gesture than with a literal photo sous rature? Besides, aping Magritte is always fun, and a hell of a lot easier than trying to come up ...

Look closer... Closer.....CLOSER Upon briefly pondering the importance magnitude of uploading a single picture by which to introduce myself to both my own teammates and all the rest of you players, it was pretty clear that not just any old picture w...

1. Preliminary notes on kill switches - OR - A bunch of rambling text that barely relates to the task. - OR - You probably want to skip ahead straight to the photos. I know I would. I had some time to kill at work the other day, an...

October 31st, 2007 To the Players of SFØ, This has been a most rewarding Era. I had enjoyed casting my shadow over your little playground, taunting your membership, and absconding with your precious Sutro Tower. But my accomplishments did not ...

We waited on a street corner in the Castro district for something fantastic to happen. This was the third and final SF0 mission we were committed to completing that evening. We had already annotated objects with our love and seen beyond sight. Now w...

It was Friday the 27th of October... I was sitting alone in my small room in my cozy little warehouse abode. I was sitting alone for a few reasons. The reason of most relevance was that there had been a scheduled meeting of sf0 members. No one cam...

First let me say that I love this task. I love it when this task gets done. I especially enjoyed JJason's completion. But I wanted to crazy go nuts. I wanted to really go for it. And to some extent, I did. To some extent I failed. You be the judge. ...

I installed myself on the balcony of the pub at the top of Victoria Station in London, and I people-watched. Meanwhile, my camera was on surveillance duty - it captured half an hour of footage while I sat there. I reviewed the surveillance footage a...

It was quite a pleasure.

This task brought to you in part by the Multilateral Task Exchange Yay for grouplessness! Boo for flags :( For this task, I, Lincoln will be doing the write up and narration for our exploits, but I very much speak for both myself and Captain B...

I am forced into speech because men of science have refused to follow my advice without knowing why. It is altogether against my will that I tell my reasons for opposing this contemplated invasion of the aether- with its vast frequency hunt and its w...

I don't wear shoes. Ever. This often leads to extreme reactions. And actually whether the reactions are extreme or not, everybody has a reaction. Some people love it, some people actually hate it. Hate it. Can you believe that people would have suc...

We decided to destroy a clock by destroying its functionality. This provoked a series of experiments including: * completely disassembling multiple clocks * detaching wires and soldering them back in different locations (FAIL) * putting the battery...

The original Falco staircase (or Falcostiege) in Vienna was dedicated after the Musician's death in 1998. The staircase is quite small and unimpressive. Apparently the city was unable to find a street or bridge named after a dead fascist which could ...

Introduction I hesitated to complete this task, for a couple of reasons. First of all, it seems like a bad idea to create tasks which can only be completed by a single person. (Or in this case a couple hundred people during any given era, only o...

"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.&quo...

I set out for the afternoon with all of the tools to be as invisible as I can get: Baseball cap, brown jumpsuit, and a pen and clipboard. I headed to the big drug store and purchase some tape and WD-40. I splurged and got the fancy WD-40 with ...

For my course Art Since 1945, I have to write a formal analysis on a work of my choice from the collection of the St. Louis Art Museum. Saturday I went to choose my subject. But before I left I thought to grab this: self-adhesive red foam + ...

Written by Myrna tha Minx: St. Louis was once the beer-brewing capital of America (it's still a major industry) for a very practical reason; the entire city is built upon a huge and complex system of natural caves. No other city on earth has as m...

I had to do this task twice. If my neighbors didn't think me strange before, they do now. All Of My Socks: All Of My Shoes*: *boots were not included in the self portrait.

Sometimes trespassing is not a matter of where you go, but of who you are. I'm friends with Ambassador Chrusov of Soviet Unterzoegersdorf, the final proud Soviet state in existence. Even though the imperialists have declared the cold war over, surely...
