This Easter we could have some kind of tube challenging Easter egg/ treasure hunt. A set of clues are handed out to all challengers who then have to collected the required information from a station (e.g. the location of a Labyrinth maze, signal number, advertisement artist or number of steps up from platform etc.)/ visit the required stations (obtained from a series of cryptic clues), not necessarily in the published order. Stations would be from Zones 1 or 2. The winner is the first person/team to arrive at a pre-determined meet up point with a full set of correct answers.
You will be working out the clues whilst travelling underground, to avoid any possible Wi-Fi use for the smartphone users!

You know what? What would be the most fun would be collating the clues in the first place.

Holds some alternative challenge records. Not sure which ones.

I agree. Then the clue setters could try and intercept the participants like in hopeful traveller's 'The Craziest R15 Twist Idea EVER?', to put them slightly off the scent...

Wandering round some of the complicated stations (if you were really evil you would put something in the Bank-Monument complex) looking for random stuff.
That could get quite cruel. Especially if, say, the clue was to find the labyrinth at East Putney, and three clue-setters staked out Platform 1 (where it is).

Re: New Alternative Challenge idea: Underground treasure hun
Yeah. I just hope that some other people express similar interest
(the Bank-Monument complex would be very cruel indeed)
