Something Very Good by Scooter Vagabond

November 29th, 2008 8:33 PM / Location: 37.785096,-122.4076

INSTRUCTIONS: Go to a street corner of your choosing and wait for something fantastic to happen.

Failure!



I was poking around the various SF0 tasks available to a level 1 newbie, such as myself and thought:

"Hey! This one super duper easy! There's always crazy stuff going on in downtown San Francisco! This will be easier than the profile picture task! Whoever came up with this one sure didn't see me coming! *chug chug*"


If only it twere true! Read more about my tale of woe in the captions of these pictures:

Thanks - ironically I made the set black and white because the crappy camera I was using has really noisy color - even in daylight! I figured "Hey, I'll make it look like I was trying to be artsy and those suckers will vote for it!" ... By suckers of course, I mean of course, fellow players with a certain discerning taste :)

Hilarious and awesome - your completion was FAR more eventful than mine! Welcome to the game!

Thanks zer0gee - everyone here is so friendly, whereas my roomates only give me condescending looks when they see me gluing glitter and feathers to my next completion. :^)

I moved to SF last year because I adore the fact that it seems impossible to avoid the crazies when walking more than 10 feet outside your door :^)

I imagine Omaha would be rough for this task - but hey, if there's ever an opposite of this task - you'll cream me! :^)

Great pictures! I also like your sarcasm.

And the noses on your smileys.
