How much would you charge to let someone hunt you? What rules would you set?

Me? I'd say they have 24 hours, and I'd get at least a 10 minute head start. I'm thinking this would run someone a million dollars after tax. I'm also assuming this would happen in the city. I think I could survive long enough to get the prize money.

If this were in the wilderness though, that'd be something different. I'm not sure how to really cover my tracks. I'd need a much longer head start but that's really just adding on to the overall time I need to avoid my pursuer. The prize money would have to be a lot more.

Your prices are hilarious. I pay a quarter of that to enjoy myself in nearby foreign countries.

Then again, I do it around here for free most days.

Also, 10minute headstart? I hope you're in better shape than the person you're letting pay or have access to an automobile/airplane that they don't.

I couldn't play that game. I'd be found like right away. Or I guess I am pretty good at hiding. Running no, hiding maybe.

Hmm ill have to ponder.

You're silly. In the Great White North we do this for free and televise it.

Either you're overestimating your hunting ability or I'm overestimating my hiding ability.

For the right price we can settle this once and for all.

In an urban environment, the trick is to blend in with the surroundings. Head for a crowded area, make sure you have clothing you can ditch/swap in quick order. Hide in buildings with lots of people in them (stores, malls, theaters etc.) Look like you belong somewhere.

When we have shitheads hit licks, there's usually a 2 minute downtime between the incident and the arrival of the first officer, depending on circumstances/traffic etc. In two minutes, in a city, you can become a ghost.

Why is there no eye-rolling smiley?

Also, I could have a headstart of days and still get caught within an hour or so. I'm easy to find.

What's infinitely more fun is to get two different people to hunt each other.

In from the earth to the moon the main guy challenges his rival to what I think they called a Kentucky style dual. Basically they both entered a forest from opposite ends and hunted each other.

Hell yeah.

Also, a slighly less "get arrested-y" version would be to hire two private investigators to follow each other. Fun.

Heh... unrelated to the thread really, but in Warhammer Online, the orc "Choppa" character class has a special attack ability called "Git to da Choppa" that randomly does damage to anyone within 20 feet and yanks them to the choppa's location.

Hello GasBandit. I want to play a game...

No, apparently what YOU want to do, little man, is stay several movies past your expiration date! I mean, come on! What was the deal there? And then you went 3D?

That, and I hated how you fancied yourself a philanthropist. That was just some grade-A self-delusion there. What you do should be enough, you don't have to "put on airs."

In all seriousness, I had thought about it (not the least because I would look BITCHIN' in Red Serge), but the wife has put the kibosh on moving north of the border.

I has a permasad.

But yeah, I had looked into emigrating a little while ago, more as a thought exercise than anything else, and the more I learned, the more I thought it would be great! And then she said no, with a finality that resounded like a large steel door.
