Talk:Scavenger hunt

How the game got its name?
Hi, Can someone explain how the game got its name? Is "Scavenger" actually refer to e.g. hyena hunt, or there is another meaning behind it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rkeidar (talk • contribs) 23:57, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

Added back the history section
I'm disappointed to see this page be reduced to a mere dictionary entry. I've added back the history section, as it rounds out this topic a little more. I also tried to read the discussions here, but they had been deleted. What do the rest of you think? Brina700 17:34, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Suggestion that this article be merged with the Treasure Hunts (game) article
I noticed that there is a suggestion that this article be merged with the Treasure Hunts (game) article. The two types of games are quite different. I'm not sure, however, where this is referenced in sources that would be considered verifiable, but as a starting point an editor could visit one of these pages to better understand the difference: https://www.scavengerhuntanywhere.com/comparing-scavenger-hunts-and-treasure-hunts/ http://www.treasurehuntriddles.org/what-is-the-difference-between-a-treasure-hunt-and-a-scavenger-hunt/ http://entertainmentguide.local.com/treasure-vs-scavenger-hunts-6738.html Teambuilder (talk) 19:15, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
