I've been in my share of guilds, and one tradition I've enjoyed is to host a game of "Hide and Seek" where, once a week, I post a screenshot of my character somewhere in the world. Along with visual clues within the pictures, I also include a short riddle which contains clues as to my location. The rules of the game are simple...
1) Everyone can reach the location, meaning the location must be safe(ish), for example, for low level characters to reach if the location is in a high level zone. The location must not require fighting through hordes of monsters, though sneaking past mobs may be necessary.
2) The image posted must contain some visual clue(s) as the the location. Pictures where you're standing against a wall and all you can see is the wall, or staring at the ground so all you can see is the ground, are not permitted.
3) Images and clues must not be inappropriate or suggestive, to include character poses.
4) Members must be active in the guild forums. I will announce in game chat when I have posted the new weekly image but I will only do this when starting the event. I will not be repeatedly posting in-game which means players who do not use the forums may miss out on prizes.
5) Prizes must be posted when the geocache is posted. Prizes may be added but not removed after the event has started.
Once you think you've figured out the clues and found the location, travel to that location and take a screenshot of your character at the location and submit that picture to the thread. To take a screenshot, look under controls on the main menu and check to see what key "Take Screenshot" is bound to. Set up your character in any pose you wish and take a screenshot, then check C:\Users\username\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\Screenshots to find your image.
*Since the majority of the guild have Dominion characters, and I only have Dominion characters, any geocaches that I post will be in Aldameri Dominion or Cyrodiil where Dominion characters can access these locations prior to veteran ranks.
Now for the part everyone is really looking for. Weekly prizes to the winner will vary based on difficulty and contribution. Likely, with no contributors, prizes may vary from 4k to 10k per cache and may contain other items.
