eBay to give away $200,000 in online treasure hunt

I'm down for a team thing... I'll just stay up, cause I'm on est too, but I don't really have a life and would probably be up that late anyway

I think that if I just keep searching restlessly I'll stumble upon it somehow...

Also, that cNet article hints that the locations of "treasures" will be hidden in some obscure areas, so get ready to browse alot of categories.

And... Since the "hunt" ends @ 11:59 PM PST 2/23/05 I would be searching for auctions that end then...
 
I have all day tomorrow free after 12. I'm in.

Are we going to have any maximum amount of people on the team? or..?

do we want to assign categories to each person??

i think that would be most efficient...since we don't want to cover the same area...then again that may not be a bad idea since one of us may catch something the other misses...i dunno what does everyone else think?

depends on how many troops we have ... double or triple up in the categories.

I can't believe I'm still up... I may end up doing this... 😉

i think geekbabe said she was in as well

EDIT: i suppose we should divide up...we'll have a little better of an idea how to proceed when we know what we are looking for
 
ok how about this, each person post the category that he/she is searching in, so the other people dont search in the same category.

good idea?

there will be a clue, so it should make the search a bit easy

well in that case we'll probably have several categories it could be...i guess we can have a quick discussion here about the clue..figure out where its most likely to be and divide up and start hunting...sound good?
