This could be a tough game. Good to see another one get going, though.

What are the bounds? Minneapolis proper? 494/694 loop? I know of a kick-ass mural in Kuala Lumpur... :evil:

Local to where? St. Paul acceptable? Richfield? Columbia Heights? Maplewood? Stillwater? Archived tag responses acceptable, like Photo Tag? Or, both from same ride?

i was thinking somewhat local.

and i also dont think its going to be as tough as you think. there are murals all over the place. just keep your eyes open and you'll see them. i think it could turn out kind of cool.



i think that is exactly the problem. there are so many murals, that all sorta look the same, it's gonna be hard to pinpoint them. most of the problems we've had with speed/photo tags games really slowing down (hitting the wall if you will) is when someone pics a mural that they are sure everyone will know and no one has any idea and it sits for 2 weeks....

on that note, could we make it easier by maybe giving the neighborhood? when bjorn started his xmas lights tag last winter to celebrate people's exuberance, you had to name the neighborhood to narrow it down. i feel like otherwise, these are gonna go stale and dormant for long periods, and tag games are no fun that way. :wink:

just my opinion though, others could think differently.

I would play, but I didn't know where the first mural was.

Alright...how bout some ideas/suggestions...

• Any mural in Mpls/St. Paul combined city limits is up for grabs.

• We'll see how it goes, hinting may be an option if the mural ends up being difficult to find or your photo isn't great. And who cares anyway if it takes a long time to find it, there are other games to play.

• When taking a picture of the mural, try to get as much of the mural as you can to give people a more comprehensive idea of what they're looking for.

• New pictures of murals that have already been tagged in the other threads is fine. Also, that gives new people to this forum to get a shot at doing some of the most notable murals in MSP.

• Not sure how everyone likes this idea... being that we're looking specifically for murals, archived photos are fine. Might be tough to think of another mural to hit in the same ride.... but you CANNOT use the same photo you've already used in another photo tag thread.

• Same basic rules as the other photo tag games.



Anybody have anything to add? Anybody wanna go first? :D
