This was hands down, no question about it, my favorite part of the entire Celebration.

Even w/o no teammates, i was able to sign up w/ two groups for the first two hunts there on the fly. While we didn’t do so well, it still was the highlight of the weekend for me.

i unfortunately missed the third one on Sunday to attend the Closing Ceremony, which, for the record, sucked hard. REAL hard. Like Mega-Maid suck, you know?

Next time, maybe don’t put the clues so far apart in the convention center, though, as i really don’t want to suffer a heart attack when i do this again.

Regardless, kudos to the team that put this together. You knocked it out of the park, gents.

CD: you’ve just put out a feeler here! also, you can always swing by the registration table (outside our room W304EFGH) before a day’s hunt and see if any teams are looking for an extra brain to boost them into the top places.

For those of us who feel Facebook is akin to Palpatine at his worst, is there anywhere else folks can go to find partners for the Bounty Hunt? This is going to be my first celebration, and i’m flying Solo, if you will.

Coming up with 6 Hutts is pretty good! I can perhaps come up with 8 or 10 names at a go, so I doubt you’ll need to know more than 3 or 4. There’s actually more than a hundred named Hutts in the Star Wars saga, coming from the films, animated series, books, comics, video games, and more.

If you really want to research your Hutts:

But don’t worry – the Bounty Hunt starts off with some puzzles and clues designed for all levels of fan, kids and adults, so that everyone can compete and have fun! Though to earn the toughest bounties, you’ll definitely need some knowhow (and/or Internet access).

Yeah, are there 20 different Hutts? I’m pretty awesome at SW trivia, but not that awesome.

I don’t know anyone that knows 20 different hutts. I can get about 6 on my own.
