BucketRace (Christmas Online Scavenger Hunt) Public Event

How it works

To adapt to the current laws of lockdown and self-isolation, BucketRace has produced a set of competitive games that can be played at home. 

First place for the season prize a deluxe BucketRace lockdown box: The Premium BucketRace Prize Box is the ultimate reward for besting all the other opponents in one of our competitive games. As standard, the box contains, medals, x2 gifts, a beverage, a snack, x2 BucketRace vouchers to our public event, a BucketRace pop socket phone holder, sweets, home garden seeds, and a branded pen. Everything you need to make life indoors a little comfier.

Players will tune into our live video stream on YouTube, Facebook, or Zoom and come up with a winning team name. We will then reveal the lists, go over the rules, a few Q&A's and get everyone to submit their practice tasks.

Teams will have 90 minutes to complete as many tasks as they can using items they can find within their own homes. We love creativity, so we're open to imaginative interpretations of how the tasks and challenges can be completed. Teams must submit all their tasks submissions via Google Form. Any tasks submitted after the 90 minutes has passed will not be counted. 

Rules

1. Tasks and challenges must adhere to the submission format to be counted

2. Each submission should include the whole team; however, one member can be excluded if they’re taking the photo/video

3. Completing enough tasks and special challenges earn you bonus points

4. Tasks must be submitted before the end of BucketRace to be counted

5. Any teams caught cheating will be disqualified (using photos and videos created before the game)

6. Teams with the most points at the end of BucketRace wins

Scoring

Each task carries a specific amount of points based on its difficulty, location and BucketRace classification (e.g. home or power-up). The home tasks score the least; however, completing enough of them unlocks a hefty bonus. Power-up tasks score more points, but they don’t offer any bonus incentive. So choose wisely!
