Movie Fest.

It is strange how every time I update there seems to be a theme that goes along with the points being scored. This time is was movies. Most notable was Ambers binge of four movies, as well as Asdgirl watching a movie at a dollar theater and Nicole watching Miracle at home.

I wonder what the theme will be for this week.

One shout-out, Asdgirl has a great picture for her completion of the Sonic mission. Check it out.

Internet Down! Family Up!

The combination of having my internet down and some of Nicole’s family up lead to me not updating PBSE much over the last week. But that didn’t stop people from rocking their summer. The theme this time looks to be food, from Nicole’s garlic shrimp, to Amber's Kahlua Cake, and Asdgirl’s eating at The Grill. Now that we are getting to a time when kids are getting bored with the summer you might be able to find some Kool-Aid stands (lemonade stands, juice stands, or whatever) popping up around town. It might be worth giving Mission #60 a shot.

Big movers

Over the last couple of days there have been a couple of people that have had a much better time than the rest of us. The first is Asdgirl who has jumped up 650 points. You can tell she is really getting into the spirit of the Best Summer Ever by her blog, for example:


My husband and I have turned the phrase "mission 99" into a verb and incorporated it into our vocabulary.
"Sweetheart, what are we doing for lunch today?"
"Well, there is nothing to eat here, so why don't we mission 99 it?"
"O.K., where do you want to go?"


Secondly in the big movers is Lance who went on a road trip up to Iowa. He was able to rack up 3600 points on the trip, and now leads in points.

Just a reminder this next Sunday (June 12th) is the AFL championship game, so be sure to watch it if you want the points. Hummm... I think I need a Sonic drink. ^_^

Mission #101: Participate in Game Olympics. (500 pts)

Two years ago the games flowed and the "medals" frayed. This year, the games will flow as will the "medals." To beat this mission you must participate in at least 80% of the Game Olympics events. You need to place at least once in first, second, or third. +200 points if you participate in each event. +200 points if you host Game Olympics.

If you are playing along: Game Olympics is a week or so of games ranging from video games, to board games, to sport games, and the such. All games. You can host your own by inviting about 3 friends to participate in at least 10 different games.

Points Update

It looks like we are in full swing for working on the best summer ever. I was able to rack up some points down in Lawrence. Nicole has also gained a good chunk of points from Newgen's. Amber has been working on Newgen's photo scavenger hunt. Lance managed to go to a K-state baseball game up in evil land. Stana is half the way done with one of her own missions, and so has finally put points up. And a new player, Asdgirl, watched Napoleon Dynamite and ate out to score some points.

I know some people just have to post about their events to get the points, so get them up! Well I'm off to go eat a midnight dinner now. Play on!
