Picture the Impossible is a community-based game developed jointly by the Lab for Social Computing at the Rochester Institute of Technology, and the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. It is intended to engage members of the community in exploration of the City of Rochester, and to encourage both creativity and charitable giving in the community. The game includes a range of activities, including casual web-based games, games that bring players out to events and locations throughout the community, and games that involve the tangible aspects of the Democrat & Chronicle newspaper itself. The game begins on September 12th and ends on October 31st of 2009. More...

We have a fixed amount per week to donate to the charities. This week it's $2,000. The charity with the most points will receive $1,000, the one in second place will receive $600, and the one in third place will receive $400.
The money accumulated over the seven weeks of the game will be given to the charities as a single donation at the closing gala.
We're hoping to recruit more sponsors, so that we can increase the weekly amount available for donations.
