+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 This Round will be played "Jeopardy Style", and leaves a little more wiggle room for the creative players among us. Good luck. For those who don't know what I mean by "Jeopardy Style" look up the Game Show Alex, I'll take "New Hotels" for one Coin... Our winner this time was drawn by Christy at a Coffee Shop in Willows, CA Good research everyone, and some good guesses, and they were all along the same lines. I was being a little more Whimsical and Creative in this Round though. I guess I'm the only one who saw my own humor. The Category is "New Hotels" The Answer is "No Today, Yes Tomorrow" A correct reply will be any question in that category that could be answered with that answer. This is a Fun and Creative Round, which will require only your imagination rether than a lot of research. I thought I'd give you a break after that last Round. Have fun with this one.

+LadyBee4T Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 A new answer has been sent and I do have to say that it is much less concrete than the first one and much more creative! LOL Quote Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Hmmm...I send an email with something, but I do not even know if I am on the right way! Well..... Quote Link to comment
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 So would my answer be correct then. It IS the Holiday Inn Express, but I'm looking for answers more like... Q. "Do you have any rooms available?" A. "No Today, Yes Tomorrow" Quote Link to comment
xboxcrazy33 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 (edited) So would my answer be correct then. It IS the Holiday Inn Express, but I'm looking for answers more like... Q. "Do you have any rooms available?" A. "No Today, Yes Tomorrow" So THAT'S what I was supposed to do. I confused myself and tried finding mention of a new hotel being built near Willows, California. I gave up and just decided to wait for the next round. Yep, I'm lazy. And easily confusable. Edited August 26, 2008 by xboxcrazy33 Quote Link to comment

ELTADA Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I went so far as to email the Willows Chamber of Commerce and they were nice enough to let me know the hotel name. Quote Link to comment
+LadyBee4T Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 New answer emailed a bit ago or maybe I should say a new question! Here is the site I found that gives the Hotels name that's a cool site I never found that one. I went so far as to email the Willows Chamber of Commerce and they were nice enough to let me know the hotel name. Never would have thought of doing that!! LOL Quote Link to comment
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 OK, since I was so unclear when I posted the pictures in this round, and several players did some crafty work in coming up with the Holliday Inn, I've decided to include those answers in the qualified group too. A number has been drawn and the Prize goes to zoesbrother who sent in the third qualified answer and had the numbers 16-20. The number drawn was 20. I have a new set of pictures, but I need to pick the best ones and will post them after work. Quote Link to comment

+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 Sometimes I WONDER if I just DREAM too much, or if what I DESIRE to create will ever actually be done. In the game of ShutterSpot, one thing I would like to create (probably with the help of many other players) is a series of 50 ShutterSpots that each feature one State Capitol, but none of them are identified. Each player who attempts a find would first have to identify the State(just from a picture of the capitol Building), and then travel to the Capitol and determine where the Photo was taken from. These Photos were taken around the Capitol Building in one of our 50 states. See if you can tell me which one! (City and State Please) Quote Link to comment

+BrierPatch Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) I may have been fast to reply but it was right before lunch and my stomach was calling.... Not so sure I was right.... but it was either take a shot or lose the opportunity... The capital building appeared to match but I did not confirm the liberty bell replica and it did not look like home. Edited August 28, 2008 by BrierPatch Quote Link to comment

+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 Slight delay of game for work. It will be back soon. We still have at least six more rounds. There are a couple of players who sent in wrong answers in the current round, so if you were unsure, there's still time to look for a better answer. Quote Link to comment
