Hey all!

I spied this game on an image board of sorts that I frequent and there seemed to be some interest for trying it on HNZ: so here it goes!
The Photo Challenge Rules said:
  • Photo challenge parameters are announced - the challenge must be reasonable (ie not "post a photo of Obama flying a jetpack to Mars"). More like "Your cat with a PS3 controller on it's head", or "A photo of the busiest street in your city", or "Someone wearing a helmet in a grocery store"
  • The first person to post a photo (UNSHOPPED OR MODIFIED) that reasonably matches the challenge parameters gets to announce the next challenge. -It should also be a photo you've taken. Google images is great, but also spoils some of the fun times to be had.
  • Repeat!

Edit 2013/02/16:
New Rule:
If a challenge goes unmet after a month, a new challenge can be posted.

As an example, we have the challenge:
A photo of somebody dressed in costume​

For which Cyndi supplied:
GamePic2-2.jpg

Then, Cyndi would announce the next challenge.
With that out of the way, the first challenge is:
A phone wrapped in some sort of paper- I just realized this may require that you take the picture with something other than your phone. xD I crack myself up sometimes​

The first person to post a photo matching this challenge decides the next one. ^_^

I legit have no other socks to wear!

A photo of a flying duck! :woot: :donna:
 
Darnit!
You narrowly beat me. :(
I wasn't sure what counted as "odd" so I got the strangest socks I could find, but am also wearing 3 socks. (Technically odd. :r )
Since I went through the effort, I'll share the image:

Look at that photo challenge inception going on!
Also: Why yes, I am still in my jammies. :wub: Summer.

Anywho, Donna beat me so it's her challenge right now. Flying duck. :tut:
 
Also: Your photo challenge is impossible. :r Nobody sees ducks.

So this about covers it for me, You can see there some of my books (I have boxes :D ) Some of my movies ( Disney ^_^ ) My chess board ( Gotta practice for chess club :tut: ) and many of my CDs xD The only thing missing is my laptop :p All very treasured things :)

Okay next how about a penguin! (I joke)
Seriously how about a ice cream truck!

It was driving away and I had to quickly take this pic! :p

How about... a misspelled store sign?
 
Misspelled, hmmm?
Does grammatically incorrect count? :r

Yes.
 
You didn't put the next photo you want to see :r
 
Darnit. Beat to the punch again.
This is the sign I was going to use for you guys:

Two key errors there.[ol][li]Why the apostrophe for TVs? Apostrophe is not how you pluralize.</LI>
<LI>[li]This is Canada. Flavour has a 'u' in it.[/li][/ol]
So a spelling and a grammatical error.

Score one for my friends bunny :r

A photo of something that reminds you of HNZed ^_^
With an explaination of why.

Alright, everybody - let's make something clear: Using Google images to meet a challenge defeats the point of it being a challenge.
Mia actually wrapped a phone in paper.
Donna and I actually put odd socks on our feet.
Cyndi actually saw an ice cream truck.
I actually went to a sign I knew had errors on it to take a picture.[note]This is not an exhaustive list of people who actually took pictures. I know other people in this topic didn't cheat. I know other people in this topic did as well, though.[note]

Images which turn up on the first page of Google images? Cheating.
Images which have the text "printable-coupon" in their title (a strange thing to name a picture you've allegedly taken)? Also cheating.

That said, challenges should be challenging but not impossible. Would most people be able to find a "fluffy white rabbit"? I'm not sure. Most people don't have phones wrapped in paper, either, but they can make it happen to meet the challenge. I don't put three mismatched socks on my feet as a matter of habit, either: but (once again) I made it happen for the challenge (that I was, unfortunately, late for).

So the current challenge of "A photo of something that reminds you of HNZ" can remain - but continued fun spoiling will have consequences. (This isn't a forum game where you have to post and keep the game going. It should be something that goes as people are able to legitimately meet the challenges - as quickly, or not quickly, as that may be.)

Hermione reading her book. Makes me think of Hogwarts, but what gets me thinking about HNZ with her is the book :p

Suprisingly large images considering I took em on my ipod.

I lost the cover to the first book when I got the book back when I was 11. :(
Is that leaning enough for you? :p

Next Challenge: A picture of your favorite shoes/sneakers while you are wearing them.
 
Sure, here you go.

A photo of you watching your favourite TV show, next. :)
(If you don't want to take a picture of yourself, just take a photo of your TV or computer, whichever floats your boat. :p and yes I realise I filled my own challenge, basically, but just go with it.)
 
Hehe easy! I even took too many photos so made it all frame-tastic ;)
