I got an event idea......

Have you guys ever heard of the Amazing Race? Well I want to recreate something similar in ESO. The basic concept of the Amazing race is that small teams travel around Earth, finding places and then completing tasks at those places to get clues on where the next place is. We could do the same thing except hold it in the province of Auridon (we could do more but would be more difficult to figure out the logistics). But for this I would need the help of several managers.

How it would work:

1. All participants will travel to some designated start area (some wayshrine probably Vuhkel Guard) and the teams would be set up. The teams would be of size 3 or 4 and should have a healthy mix of level guys. So no 4 rank 50s in a group.

2. This manager would also give the teams the first clue over guild chat as to where the next person is located, these clues would not be too obvious but also not too difficult as finding the person is only one part of the race.

3. When the group found the manager at the next place in the race, the group would be given a task to do. Once this task is completed, the manager will give them the next clue for the next place.

4. This would be repeated several times depending on how long we want it too take. I personally think 5 places between the start and the finish is a good idea.

5. The first team to arrive at the finish as well as the second (or even third?) will be given a prize, perhaps 10000g or something of that value.

Some important rules:
-No wayshrine travel is allowed during the course of the event
-Items that you have before may not be used to complete challenges and activites (may exceptions based on activity)
-Teams cannot help out each other

Additional Thoughts:
-there could also be choice involved in the tasks
-other rewards for best completion of tasks


Anyway I want to know thoughts on this idea and if there would be managers willing to help as it will probably take around 5-6 of us to run. The plan I have in mind is to do this event the weekend of May 10-11 and we will probably need to allow 2 or so hours for the event.

Perhaps some kind of challenge, a riddle or something that is asked, and if the wrong answer is given, the person there pretends it was a good answer, and gives a secondary, more scenic route to take than the route given to those who get it right?

The challenges at the stations could be anything from killing a bear with only fists, to getting some amount of iron, to crafting a certain armour piece, solving riddles, acting out a skit..... It will be whatever the manager in charge of the station will like to do.
