Pub Treasure Hunt - Off the track trail

*The times shown may change, depending on DST settings
Turn up at the start pub (Devi's Bar, across from Wiedikon HB), as soon as possible after 17:30, by 19:00 at the latest. You can start when you like and hand in your answers by 22:30, with bonus points for handing in earlier.

You organise into teams of 4 or so (mixed CH / non-CH is best). If you don't have a team we will find you one. When you have a team ready you get the map and questions, which can only be answered in the pubs. This time I'll hand / send out the questions in advance to anyone who has their teams organised, to reduce the crush in the start bar.

We'll start in Devi's Bar across from Wiedikon station / tram (www.devis-bar.ch). From there we'll visit the bars in sequence. The bars are off the beaten track. Some are new and most are quite small. We'll have an excellent, exotic buffet dinner for CHF 23 per person in pub 4. Bring an open mind and a certain amount of patience, as there will be a wait to be served when lots of us arrive at once. The delights to be found in the bars include Peruvian tequila, exotic whiskys, African beer and cold Bosnian slivovitz.

If you are last to arrive you can follow us and find a team to join. If you plan to arrive after 7:00 I'll suggest where to join us.

This treasure hunt will be quite easy, with a relaxed time limit. There are points for correct answers and anything else we think fit. The theme is cool and you'll get points for good interpretations of this (cool dress, behaviour, colours, drinks, arctic gear, whatever you can dream up).

We'd like organisers to 'manage' bars and act as guides. The advantages of doing this are that you get to meet everyone and you have organiser super powers. Bribery of the organisers will be encouraged, as usual. Any volunteers? Any photographers out there?

All bards confirmed, trail is set, prizes already acquired. It seems that the last 4-editions winner team either dropped out or was recruited to the team organization, so it everyone else has a pretty good chance of winning. Also, we had a chat with Saint Peter, and he promised cold by dry weather.

All in all things are looking up....

(and yes, I am bumping the thread too).

(oh, and funny coincidence - both Mr L have birthday the same day....).

It is not that gazillions and gazzilions of cheesites have registered for the event but... in case you are planning to join us and do have a team of your own, please let me know. It would be extremelly apreciated if I could just send you over the questionnaires and maps, etc (this quizz is iPhone- and Google- proof. You really have to be at the venues to understand the questions). With 120+ joinning, and about 30% attendants looking for a team, it would help us a lot if the who already know what they will be doing got their paper work in advance.
