The Things We Bury For Our Friends by Frostbeard, Jotun One

January 16th, 2008 10:56 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Bury something. Contact another player that you don't know in real life and give them instructions on where to dig it up. Your instructions can be either straight-forward or cryptic.

When you contact them you should also invite them as a collaborator on the task.

Frostbeard: So, after building this god forsaken treasure, we decided to jump in the car over the bridge to Cambridge. Odin's ravens discovered that Rongo Rongo spends a little too much time over in Cambridge for that to be coincidence, so we figured we'd be nice and make her trudge through cold and snow to dig in hard ground for something she doesn't want anyway over in her part of town. Aren't we nice?

We circled around for a while, and then i remembered an area that i was in the other night before i escaped from Harvard (different weird story, too bad it isn't applicable to a task). So, went to this general area, parked the car, and set out. We didn't particularly have a shovel, or a flashlight, so this wasn't exactly the best planned tasking. We DID have a metal cup though. After staking out some area beneath some bushes Jotun One started digging with the metal cup. Unfortunately he didn't exactly get too far, as there were tons of roots in the area. We decided to abandon the site, and moved on.

Eventually we find a better site, and i suggested looking in the construction site for a shovel to dig with. Jotun One was kind enough to go procure said shovel while i took preliminary shots of the area for the directions. Once he came back, he dug the whole, i placed the treasure, and he filled it in. Some leaves scattered over the site helped keep it hidden from prying eyes, and probably from Rongo Rongo. Giving back the shovel, we moved on to a bar to celebrate with some nice pints of beer.

Oh, and then we got Thor to work his stuff and bury the site in another foot or so of snow. Awesome.

Jotun One: The beauty is we figured we'd find somewhere, and the first choice was under bushes up on a high wall, but there were only roots and me with a poor metal cup. Then a little further over we found a choice spot and a construction site. I wandered into the latter and fist found nothing, then to my excitement a hoe, which was then tossed aside for the two shovels sitting around the corner. Wodin provides!

As for Rongo Rongo...

You were already doing this task. I couldn't add you as a collaborator. :( Sad! Anyway, hope the treasure is a good enough substitute.

Hee hee. That is because I have a nefarious plan for this task. But, I shall go hunt for your treasure this weekend!

Awesome

Have fun. :) The snow will make this task significantly more difficult. So good luck.

The shovel was the key. So was the less frozen earth. But, frost and pillaging are key, so go for that shovel and dig deep.

We found it, we have photos, and I don't have a clue how to document it. :)

Well, I mean, I know how to upload photos and such, but I don't know how to tie it into this praxis. Or even if we're supposed to.

hey there. ya, unfortunately rongo rongo was already signed up for this same task and i couldn't add her as a collaborator, which means she can't edit this task, and neither can you. if you want though, you could send some images and i could upload them.
