The moderators have discussed the Google submissions which are all the same type of reflection of the Google car. Since the actual sign on the car is the same "word" being submitted in each map then we deem them all duplicates of the original submission:

Please refrain from using other people's posts to submit your own nearby variation. It really isn't in the spirit of the game.

In the future we now feel forced to add paragraphs and paragraphs of special rules and disclaimers, detailed descriptions and warnings.

For instance:

1) A word is a word... a word isn't characters extracted from the middle of another word. We've deleted credit for these types of posts.

2) If a word is on a poster on one side of a door the grabbing a second instance of the word off the same poster or the same poster posted a few feet away is really stretching the spirit of the game. There is one instance of a second poster nearby the first being submitted. Since it is technically valid we'll let it stand but if more show up we reserve the right to delete credit for all of them.

3) Posting a fuzzy blob of text that is supposed to be the word on hopes that it'll get accepted is not within the spirit of the hunt. We've deleted credit for those.

Thanks,

Kevin
