I know we've discussed it in PM, but I'll put my scavenger hunt idea up here for discussion.
Prior to B2Mem, we set up a list of quotes from Tolkien, probably divided into categories (The easiest might be Silm, TH, LotR, and Misc.) This master list is posted ONCE. At the beginning.
Participants look over the list and then seek out the quotation and write a fic or create art or meta or some other sort of fanwork around it. I also suggest that another response would be to find someone elses' work that fit the quotation, and post a review of it. This would allow people who don't write much to also participate.
We could set a goal number. (My original thought was 31, but since many people don't want to do something every day, we could cut that in half to, say, 15.) Anyone who reaches the goal "wins". We could also have awards for those who did the most overall or something like that...
The only maintenance of the scavenger hunt once posted would be a reminder post with a link to the master post, and a post where people could post links to their work.
And aside from making the list, which could be easily done by setting up a shared doc on Google and letting the volunteers add to it until it's full, the only other prep work would probably be banners and promotion.
