We all start in the picnic area

10:00 am-11:15am: Leg 1. We each get a 15-item page to go look for and turn back in.
11:15am-12:00pm: 45 minute rest.
12:00pm-1:15pm: Leg 2. We get another 15-item page and can leave the resting area after however many minutes corresponding to the number of pictures from leg 1 that we missed minutes have passed(if you find all the pictures from leg 1 you get a small advantage over other teams who didn't for leg 2).
1:15pm-2:00pm: 45 minute rest.
2:00pm-3:15pm: Leg 3. Same deal.
3:15pm-4:00pm: 45 minute rest.
4:00pm-6:00pm: Unannounced 2 hour activity.
I'll make it simple to understand:

Leg 1 - 10:00 am to 11:15 am
Leg 2 - 12:00 pm to 1:15 pm
Leg 3 - 2:00 pm to 3:45 pm
Leg 4 - 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm

The break in between the four are 45 minutes long.

The teams will leave for the next leg based on how many items they located and photographed in the previous leg. For each item the failed to find, a one minute time penalty will be added to their departure time.

Sample #1
  • Team 1 found 12 items during leg one. They would depart for two leg at 12:03 pm (12:00 plus 3 minutes for three missed items)
Sample #2
  • Team 10 found 8 items during leg one. They would depart for two leg at 12:07 pm (12:00 plus 7 minutes for the seven missed items)
Sample #3
  • Team 6 found all 15 items during leg one but they checked in at 11:25 am. They would depart for two leg at 12:10 pm (12:00 plus the 10 minutes they were late to the check in point)
Sample #4
  • Team 13 found 5 items during leg one, they were caught running by a judge once and they were 15 minutes late at the check in point. They would depart for two leg at 12:35 pm (12:00 plus 10 minutes for the 10 missed items, A 10 minute penalty for running, and 15 minutes added for being 15 minutes late to the check in point.)
Does that better explain it?

Admin Edit: Fixed the times...
