SUMMARY:USA Founding Fathers - ShoutOut Game Contest
DESCRIPTION:USA Founding Fathers ShoutOut(tm) is a AA Puzzle Game where the
  category is Founding Fathers.\nThis year\, America turns 250 on July 4th. 
 Our FF ShoutOut celebrates this event with a unique activity and a unique r
 eward (in addition to cash prizes).\nAfter the Contest\, there will be a 'S
 pirit of 1776' Toast to America's Founding Fathers at participating bars an
 d restaurants. Contest winners get a free drink for that toast\, choosing a
 mong the type of drinks that Founding Fathers may have imbibbed (beer\, app
 lejack\, rum) as well as bourbon (an American innovation that came a few ye
 ars after 1776). There will also be nonalcholic options. \n\nTo play the g
 ame\, you will need smart glasses (preferred) or a smart phone.\nRecommende
 d: make yourself easy to spot with colonial garb or a colonial hat (hats av
 ailable from AA!) \n\nIn AA ShoutOut(tm) Games\, players attempt to decife
 r which person or thing they "are" in the game category. Players do this by
  discovering how other players perceive them. Other players convey this per
 ception by flashing QR Codes.\nPlayers can read a QR code only once and a p
 layer can not read more than two QR codes in the same general location. As 
 a result\, players must keep moving as they search for other players.\nPerc
 eptions will vary in relevance and accuracy. Each player assesses the set o
 f perceptions as they determine what Founding Father has been assigned to t
 hem. When they are confident that they have determined who they are\, they 
 shout their name. An example: "I'm George Washington!"\nPlayers can only sh
 out the name of a Founding Father ONE TIME. This is to prevent repeated gue
 sses. So be as sure as you can be before shouting a name!\nPlayers who corr
 ectly determine who they are\, win a cash prize and get a free drink for th
 e Spirit of 1776 Toast(tm).\nThe amount of the cash prize awarded to a play
 er depends greatly on how quickly a player determines who they are. The fir
 st players to shout out who they are get a higher prize amount\, while the 
 last players will get only a drink for the Toast.\nWhen a player is confide
 nt that they have collected enough information to determine their person\, 
 they Shout Out the name. For example: "I'm Winston Churchill!"\nFor 2026\, 
 AA's Founding Fathers Puzzle Contest will be held in 20 US Cities. This is 
 to ensure that players have \n \n(c) 2026 Augmented Action
