Hunter's Guide:

• The Venues line from the beginning of Downtown, Channelside Drive to the Ybor district (so all is fair game here. Don't worry, we may be easy on you).
• The venues consists of bars, clubs, restaurant and possible outside venue contributors that have been set up in Downtown, Channelside and Ybor.
• The idea is to get through as many venues as you can. Remember, each venue has points that you have to earn. Points may be earned the following ways:
  • Successfully complete the CHALLENGE task
  • Successfully complete EXTRA CREDIT tasks
    
  • Get the most votes from your FRIENDs
    
• Now you must use strategy. Is hitting as many venues as you can to collect points better or is completing every task at a venue before you hit the next venue better?

  • In one strategy, you hit them all, maybe not collecting the max at each
  • The other strategy, go get all the points, but you may not get to all the venues
• The venues consists of bars, clubs, restaurant and outside venue contributors that have been set up in Channelside and Ybor.
