Trying to assign teams. I'll send in a draft shortly, just got a bit of an issue with only 8 of us attending.

Draft Team lineup (V1) T1: Fahmi (H) Louis T2: Dabus (V) Smale F Mster F T3: Weeb Avancular Ratt (V) Notes: I prefer to try to balance out and have less people a team with restrictive needs such as vegans, halals. I think having a team of mostly those restricted to halal/vegans would (unless it's my team) this could cause some imbalance. Preferably, with the amount of signups so far, I'd prefer to assign one female a team instead of more than one. I'd prioritise the oldest ones in the team team, for instance, Me and Avancular would be prioritised in same team, unless he's cool with anyone. If we don't get anymore signups, we'd likely end up with 2 players in one team, or if any of the challenges are too much for only 2 players, we'd have no choice but to reduce to 2 teams (based on the setup I prefer to push for 3 teams)
17:40
I'll be allowing anyone to decide on which team they prefer joining.

There's a small handful
21:23
Most notably, the Newham Ham Sandwich. This would also affect Halals as well.

I think I'll swap Mster with me, just to balance and also Mster is technically a defending winner.

Each team will be given a link each for the virtual deck of cards. A notebook/logbook is optional. All teams must have 7 cards in their hand at all times. For each card completed after doing a challenge, draw 1 card. (I) Whilst doing each challenge, you must send photographs as evidence to show ...

@ratt Pets at Home: As you can simply tell from the name itself, there are other means of achieving this without involving any strangers. Personally I would only discourage anyone to involve strangers, you can do so only at your own risk. Going back to the challenge name, you probably haven't noticed that Pets at home is a chain of pet stores around the country. Based on my recent research, there are numerous based around London and quite a lot of them how live pets on sale that you could touch (Rabbits, Gerbils, Hamsters and other rodents etc). I'm pretty sure if you ask any member of staff nicely, they can allow you touch any of the animals. Though if we do outlaw any involvement with strangers, the challenge could be raised up from 2 to 3. (edited)

I think it's discouraged to touch the animals at Pets at Home - they make the walls high around the rabbit enclosures on purpose

Agreed; unfortunately I didn't have much time to prepare for this game so I used the version I originally wrote for Scavenger Hunt last year, which implements a lot less of the game rules directly itself than the Manchester game version. I would want to improve it for future versions

We did at one point plan to route to a Pets at Home store but I'm just saying I'm not sure it'd be sociable anyway, the staff typically don't want their animals touched.

Funnily enough This Haringey situation has now reminded me of one of Jay Foreman's videos on how London boroughs were formed. (Historically Haringay wanted to join with Southgate in Enfield instead of Tottenham because of complaints of how smelly they were)
