I've been stalled for days because I've signed up for this task, buried a lovely gift, and no one will dig. It's buried and waiting, and I cannot add another task until it's done. Beware the digging task my friends, beware.

Here's the deal: I'm near Springfield, MA, USA. I am happy to bury something within a 90 minute radius from me, or in places I frequent when I visit Boston or the New Haven County/ Fairfield county/ NYC area, though it may be a while before I go to each of those places again. Message me and we'll get to plotting!

Anyone want to bury something in England for me to find?

I played perplexcity and was totally willing to dig something up miles away from where I live.

Gah!

The only players in NI are all people I introduced to the game myself anyways!

Well, hopefully I'll get across the water sometime...

Are there any Central European players except for me and babe hawaii?

I wonder...

How do we define real life? I mean, there are SF0 players that I have near constant contact with - they clearly don't count. But what about players I've met in person, but only occasionally? What about players that I've met, but only via skype? And why isn't SF0 real life, anyway?

Sucks, still.

Well I'm in Norfolk over New Year, so if any of the GY0 players I've never met are interested, I'll find something to bury.

Alaska please!?

Anybody playing in AK that I don't know? I'd like to do this one.

At the end of the scavenger hunt I sent Yellowbear on, this awaited him. A box? A mysterious box? But where was the box. Why, it was underground. Buried for our friend. And I did indeed bury it. See? [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHHaW4lm...
