I would have done this already, but decided to wait till "some" people decide what the current challenge is. IMHO if the person that posts the challenge is satisfied, then it stands, and so far, that has been the case. I mean, what does it matter that the truck "monster trucking" a car is 2wd? If the person that had posted the challenge ruled it a failure, then it would have been. Creativity rocks when someone posts a challenge that your truck is not "capable" of.

i was the one who posted it, i was dis-satisfied because i really wanted to see a 4x4 ranger parked on someone's hood! but, the guy did do what i said was to be done... so as a result i accepted it as a pass... i frankly couldn't care that it was 2wd specifically...

the way i look at this, if you have a picture that you think passes, post it and your next challenge, if the person who's challenge you just completed, has a problem with it, they better say something right quick, to stop the new challenge... i don't think we, as a group should have to wait a week or 2, for someone to come on here, to check to see if the challenge they posted was completed...

my opinion (which means nothing, as the drop box wasn't my challenge) is that it is a drop location, and if you want to get technical, the trailer is a box... and that it is good enough! unless the challenger comes on here and disputes it, before a reasonable amount of time has passed (which we are well past) it should stand as a result...

either way, this thread, i am sure, was created for guys to have fun, going out and doing something with their truck, and interact across the world, playing this game... rather than argue the technicalities of what is and isn't a drop box... personally, i would like to get this done so we can move on with the next challenge, i'm to the point where i almost want to go hunting for one of these, so i can post the challenge of a helium balloon so there is no debate about it...

Not surprising at all. I tried to lay down the rules that I found were working at the other forum, but not many people wanted to abide by them. I could have told you the first day of the balloon challenge that it wouldn't get done quickly.

Oh well.

how do you figure? it's simply, go out find a balloon, tie it to your antenna, take a picture, post it, give the kid you stole it from a dollar and drive around for a few days with the balloon still there...

Chris, i totally did.. sorry, but i really want to see that picture! it's a damn good idea! well worth stealing!

Correction... The steps are:

Go out
BUY a balloon
etc...

on the other two forums I play this on, challenges like this are never accomplished. I call it a POSED picture.

Types of challenges that rarely get done:
  • Posed shots
  • Illegal actions
  • Challenges involving other people
  • Action shots
  • Hard to obtain challenges (ie. rare)

I know there's more, but I can't remember them right now.

I posted this on the R6 site after a rash of dumb/un-doable challenges popped up:

This is for everyone:

When picking challenges, the point is NOT to see who can actually get the picture... it's to see who can get it FIRST.

Yes, SOMEWHERE, SOMEONE will be willing to strip down to their underwear and pose in the middle of the street by your bike... that's not the point of this game.

After you put a picture, you need to post a new challenge... otherwise the challenge is still in effect.
