I don't think I'll be doing this in 45 minutes.
Are you ready?
No, you are not ready. But I'll see you at Ida an hour hence, with jinglebells on.
Once more, I say to thee, "Suit up!"

4 hours 'till 4 days!
What would you do if I told you there were fours left before the fourdays?
Would you scream? would you shout? Would you wriggle all about?

6 hours
Are you ready?
No, you are not ready.
I'm not ready, either. I was practicing just now, and my Soul Cal skills are mad rusty. Not that that means anything to you, but, you know, Boy Scout motto: Be Prepared.
But you won't be.

MAKING SCAV HUNT
MAKING SCAV HUNT

IT'S OURS THIS TIME
AND WON'T THE SCAVVIES
BE SURPRISED

12 hours
So now, the time when we should all be doing last-minute pre-homework, is of course the time when we are least able to do it. What else can we think about? Seriously.
This is especially true for those of us who anticipate this being our last Hunt. Now, the boundaries are often notoriously poor on this matter, but even if I do come back next year, it won't be the same. I'm sure it's the same on the teams. This year, it's something AWESOME that I helped build, with my own two hands and a red pen. Next year, who knows? It'll be someone else's baby. And while someone else's baby is always less stressful, I believe it's always your own that's the cutest.
Also, for the record, this list -especially this roadtrip- will rock you. You may well never be the same. Are you ready?
No. No, you're not ready.

Jitters, Shakes, Butterflies, Wobbles, etc.
For the last few hours (because, yes, I woke up at 7.30 this morning with the jitters) I've been trying to come up with a better way to say that I'm deliriously excited for 12:01 tonight, and I've found that really? Can't do it. All I can seem to manage is sipping nervously at my coffee, pondering the shaved lemons that are sitting on the counter and pretending like all of the schoolwork I have due during the hunt will magically disappear if I will it so.
It's like Christmas morning and my parents are demanding that I work on an essay before opening presents.
IMPOSSIBLE.
I'm SO EXCITED!

If there is a list...
Just to clarify, Jim's post should in no way indicate that there is or is not going to be a list. (insert cackle)
Prelude to the Fourdays!
Welcome one and all to the Scav Hunt Blog! This website will keep a running commentary from all active (and a few non-active) Scavenger Hunt Judges during the next fourdays (May 10-13).
We have all been slaving away at providing a fantastical list that will shock, awe and amaze you all once it is release at 12:01am this evening. I personally want to thank each one of the Judges for working as an amazingly cohesive yet individualistic unit this year. As it is my first year as Head Judge, I must say this is the biggest thing I've ever done and it at times has been overwhelming, hard, and frustrating but in this calm before the storm I am nothing but ecstatic. I hardly slept last night, not out of frantic preparation but out of sheer excitement. I offer one prediction and that is that this will be the best Scav Hunt... EVAR!!!!
JudgeON!
