Scavenger Bingo is a weird mix of Scavenger Hunt and Bingo

It’s designed to be accessible to anyone, regardless of age or technical knowledge, and to be rewarding and whether you do one challenge or all 90.

Unlike a traditional Scavenger Hunt, which focus on you collecting objects, it focuses on doing and making, so challenges are normally evidenced using phone pics or videos (it is assume this content will be shared publicly once submitted).

The “Bingo” element uses a traditional UK bingo card makes it possible to “win” with as few a 5 challenges complete, but you don’t get to determine which 5. The more sets of 5 (lines) or 15 (full houses) you complete, the more changes you have of winning.

Each one of you should have a standard UK bingo card, with every number from 1 to 90 appears once and once only, these directly related to 90 challenges we have. These are grouped into horizontal lines of 5 numbers (lines), 3 lines are grouped into a full house, there are six full houses on each card, and the order of numbers of random on each card.

The more lines and full houses you have, the more chances you have of winning prizes

Rules

Everything must be completed by a team who are attending BSides Leeds in-person

All evidence must be created after the start of the opening talks, and before 4pm.

You may work in groups of up to five

Each evidence may only be used once on one card. If the same team or another team submits on the same challenge it must be a different attempt (i.e. no multiple submissions of different pictures of the same attempt, used against different cards).

You are responsible for your own actions. We neither endorse nor ensure you in any way, and anything dangerous or illegal should not be done and will lose you points and/or disqualify you. Silly is good, funny is great, being inconsiderate, anti-social, or putting yourself or others at risk absolutely isn’t!

We expect to be able to make all evidence public!

You can submit your evidence as you go, so you can keep submitting additional evidence as the day goes on.

All entries (and accompanying proofs) must be checked-in with the judges before 4pm. You can check-in multiple times, so we actually recommend you check-in your proofs periodically. Not only does this allow us to publish a leader board but it also avoids EVERYONE wanting EVERYTHING scored at the same time. If you arrive and other people mean you don’t get your stuff checked-in in time, you lose out. So check-in often and early.

The judges can be found <Insert Place>. Some of the checking-in staff are switching to scav hunt judging in the afternoon so don’t worry in you can’t check stuff in early-doors

The judges may not always be fair or reasonable, but they are always right.
