+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 26, 2008 Author 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. Quote

+LadyBee4T Posted August 26, 2008 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
+GATOULIS Posted August 26, 2008 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
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 26, 2008 Author 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
xboxcrazy33 Posted August 26, 2008 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

LOL As in many of the examples of the items being held to the fridge with the magnets... "Today" = The present in general "Tomorrow" = The future in general Quote

"Do you have any rooms available?" A. "No Today, Yes Tomorrow" The answer I sent in this morning was along these lines so I am assuming it is correct? Quote

Here is the site I found that gives the Hotels name Edited August 27, 2008 by zoesbrother Quote
ELTADA Posted August 27, 2008 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
+LadyBee4T Posted August 27, 2008 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
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 28, 2008 Author 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
+LadyBee4T Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Congratulations to Zoesbrother!! I never would have come up with the exact hotel that is being built I'm sure..... Quote
+zoesbrother Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Sweetness, I can't believe I won on my first attempt at this cointest. I suppose you now need my addy don't you its on the way. Quote
xboxcrazy33 Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) Congrats zoesbrother! Thanks for another cointest WSR! Edited August 28, 2008 by xboxcrazy33 Quote
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 28, 2008 Author 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
+grodan & fiabus Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 E-mail sent. Yes, google is my friend also. grodan Karin Quote
+LadyBee4T Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Another day and another guess!! Email sent Quote
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted August 28, 2008 Author Posted August 28, 2008 You are all so quick! I thought this one would be very hard. I knew I should have just used one picture. Quote

You just underestimated the power of Google! I usually Google before I post to be sure that it will return usable results, but this time I didn't, since I knew it could be found in a sea of images.

+BrierPatch Posted August 28, 2008 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
+zoesbrother Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Googled state capitols and selected images and there was the answer. Quote
+thebuddhaman Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 i'm just getting this back on the first page Quote
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted September 1, 2008 Author 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
+thebuddhaman Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 hmmm i wounder if i was one of the wrong answers Quote
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 hmmm i wounder if i was one of the wrong answers There's no harm in sending more answers. Once one of your is right, you get on the list. Just don't send more than one in 24 hours. Quote
SaltyCacheNutZ Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Not sure who gets to play or if it is too late? but I sent you an e-mail Quote
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 Not sure who gets to play or if it is too late? but I sent you an e-mail Anyone gets to play, and it's not too late. Remember that you can guess each 24 hours in case you were not right. Spend a little time reading past Rounds for some tips on research, and how to play. Welcome to the Game. Quote
