GASH wants YOU!
So, the Graduate/Alumni ScavHunt team has a facebook app.

If you're at all interested in joining - even if you're not entirely sure if you can, or if you can't physically come to Chicago - go sign up! People who we can call on do an item or two from afar, or even just help decipher the list, will be a tremendous asset.

Not sure if I'm coming to Chicago, but I have some interest in Ruby-ing up a list management app for use during the hunt. (It's probably gauche to flat-out copy another team's.)

I already have a pretty nice (if I say so myself) list management/scav running website called ScavDB that Ryo and I wrote for Snitchcock - but it is entirely written by us. It's in PHP, and definitely needs some work to accommodate the unique challenges inherent in a distributed Scav team, but I don't think we'd be served well by starting from scratch. Although I'm actually tempted to open-source it... though I may wait one more scav :-)

Also - we're working on putting together teams in metro areas like SF Bay, NYC... Boston perhaps? If you find someone who'll be courier (i.e. bring items to Scav before judgement - we have one for SF already) you could even do physical items if you want to! What a brave new world we live in...

Wait... so you mean I can stop working on my Physical Object Submission System I was writing in erlang?

Well, we still have other areas not covered by courier - though, come on, you should really write it in Termite/Gambit :-)

You going to play?

:P the haircut is more than a month old, but me-having-pictures-of-it-for-the-internet is less than a week old.
