INSTRUCTIONS: Document the available attractions of an unattractive tourist destination. Distribute...

Welcome to Great Yarmouth
This is the Gy0 tour...

Welcome to the GeeWhy tour

Location 1- The seafront
The main tourist attraction in Yarmouth is of course, the seafront. Full of fun and frolics for all the family it features miniature golf courses aplenty, arcades by their hundreds and food stalls by their thousands. Good for your general tourist, and it is indeed good. Yarmouth's premier income being the tourist trade. However, for the more serious tourist, the SFZourist, there are several places to visit along the way that are locations of GYZero completions.

Attraction 1a- The labyrinth
Labyrinth
Task- O Time Thy Pyramids

Located between the log flume and the pleasure beach, this section of beach was commandeered by GYZero one Sunday afternoon to dig up the beaches and release the minotaur.

Attraction 1b- The walkway
Verticle jaunt Escape from the camera Business Greeting cards
Tasks include- Vertical Jaunt, Escape from the camera, business greeting cards.

Covering a large narrow strip, the walkway is host to many a task by GYZero. Note, this area does not include...

Attraction 1c- The Marina Centre
Your dear friends Nintend0
Tasks include- Your Dear Friends, Nintend0

The area around the marina centre is ripe with tasking opportunities.

Attraction 1d- Far end
FlashMob
Task- FlashMob


Location 2- In Town
The town centre lures tourists in with it's bright lights and food stalls, but if you look beyond the face of it...

Attraction 2a- Market Gates
TYTMGMT
Task- Thank you the MGMT

Market gates, the main bus station in Yarmouth, is a good locale for BARTpa tasking.

Attraction 2b- Abandoned Art College
Monopoly
Task- Human Chess (monopoly)

A favorite for our UofA members, the abandoned art college may well be the recipient of Insatiability tasking.

Attraction 2c- Town Centre
IT Food Fight The Heist. Labeling
Tasks include- Take IT to the steps of city hall, Food Fight, Unorthodox Caroling, The heist and the task that first got us properly into the game, The labeling Compulsion.

Location for maximum publicity and a popular meet up point for gy0 members.

So there you have it, if you dig underneath the rotting exterior of Great Yarmouth, you can find time capsules of joy. If that isn't attractive in an unattractive location, what is?


The link to this page is being circulated to all our acquaintances who thought about signing up, and passed. It will be sent to the friends of the past, and the future. This page is about how much fun you can have playing a game, even if it's based on the other side of the world from you.

Thanks.

If I remember correctly, there is also a wonderful torture museum in Yarmouth with a book made from the skin of a prisoner. I thought that there was an ear on the front of the book, but that might have just been my imagination running wild! Could you please verify the museum and the book if possible.

Cheers, Magpie

I particularly enjoy that all of the attractions are attractions because GYØ touched them.

Besides the actual nature of the task, I think this nicely rounds up every good task GeeWhyZero has actually completed. Way to summarise, Mr. Tom!
