I think my only complaint is about the scavenger hunt, and this is my feeling about PXR scavenger hunts in general, not just the Pairs event one. I was cool with them during the first few times with the Easter Egg hunt and that kind of thing. It was new and the idea worked. The problem is... it was done again and again and again. The Pokémon GO event was very scavenger hunt based. Then the previous year's Pairs event. Then the Easter Egg hunt again. Then the Winter Carnival had one too. And here it was again. They're easy to set up for the host, but they burn hours away for everyone trying to find these things. When you've done so many of the things, you don't look forward to the next.
That's my only real complaint. I think scavenger hunts somewhat turned into a staple activity for a lot of PXR events and... I personally feel they've kind of worn out their welcome and I think it's time for something new. Having to go through each thread in so many sections with a fine-tooth comb is tough and very time-consuming, but if you get too hasty or distracted with it, it's very easy to accidently skip that tiny little image or icon you're looking for and you'll keep going and going because you think you still haven't come across it yet (only to cry at the end!). And you need to set up for it by shutting off all signatures as well.
I would love a Pairs event that's like a hybrid of this and a PSG. Pairs need to work together to win and protect themselves from being sabotaged by the other pairs, all while sabotaging them to stay ahead! You can win bonuses, forum buffs, and fun stuff like that for you and your pair, or you can mess with the other pairs by laying all kinds of tricks, traps, and mischief on them in the same kind of spirit the PSG has. That would be wild and I think a lot of people would get a kick out of that.
