Let Me Search That For You
7 August 2014
7PM
LMSTFU, or Let Me Search That For You, is an internet search battle to discover who has the skills, speed and wit to become the world's first ever internet search champion. Our compère, Teresa Dillion, will introduce each participant and announce the queries and rounds. Searchers will be given queries to which they must find the answers using their search engine of choice within a predetermined time-frame.
Search query challenges include LOL cats, Yelp reviews, and everyone's favorite, the Yahoo Answer. Each searcher's computer screen will be projected live into the space as audiences watch the searchers' skills unfold in before their eyes. The winner of each round will be determined by popular audience vote, and will advance to the next round until there is one searcher left, who will be crowned the winner.
Venue
LMSTFU will be held at LEAP
