Foraging Challenges: What would you set...

Post: # 256950Post markpeace »

Hi all,

I'm putting together a little foraging websitey-community-gamey-thing, in which people confirm each others photos of finds, with a points-system. Part of it is the ability to earn 'badges' (all very scouts :salute: ) for combinations of finds. I've got some basic ones (10 finds, 20 finds, etc), but I want to put together a series of badges (novice, apprentice, adept, expert, legend) which help people get to grips with hunting for stuff in a structured way.

So, for instance, to earn a novice badge, you'd need to find ...

1xNettle
1xWild Garlic
1xElder (berry or flower)
1xBramble
1xShaggy Inkcap

Then, the next badge up would have a series of finds which are slightly more difficult to find/identify

So here's my question: if you were setting targets for some of these other badges, what would you use?
