Example Rules - the fine print section

- not that they will be exactly the same this year. Bethany's judging as well for one

1. All pictures should be of the entire team within the picture. 4 pt will be deducted per picture without all team members in it. Insertion of the picture taker's finger, foot or other appendage in the frame will not count as the entire team.

2. No stealing stuff from my house.

3. The "winners" are everyone who has a good time, however the prizes will go to the team whose items and pictures get the most points.

4. All items are worth the points noted unless it specifically says you are allowed to get additional points by acquiring more than one of the items.

5. A picture can NOT count in more then one category.

6. All pictures must be on roll turned in.

7. All ties will be decided by "Paper, Rock, Scissors".

8. Creative interpretation of the instructions is encouraged but cheating will not be tolerated. Use of the INTERNET for imagery is not considered creative.

9. All entries are due by 6:30 p.m. sharp. This includes having already turned your roles of film to Walgreen's One-Hour Photo Developing at Brentwood and Litzinger (NOT CPI this year). Place it under the name of Randy Curtis. It should be less than $10 for 24 exp. doubles. Somebody will pick up all the pictures en mass at "7:45..

10. The formula for the loss of points for being late is: loss of points = (minutes past 6:30)3 (yes that's cubed!)

11. No points are lost for being early.

12. No displays of normally covered body parts.

13. All rules not specified here will be at the discretion (i.e. whim) of Randy. All his decisions will be final unless overturned by a majority of those people present at the party. Think of it as a monarchy with democratic checks and balances.

14. Have questions on the road? Randy's phone number is: 962-4283.

You don't like it well too BAAAAD! Deem's Da Berries! You no maka da game, you no maka da rules!
