House Rules

sidequests is a board of real-life side quests. Anyone can post a quest. Anyone can complete one — for free — by submitting photo or video proof. The best completion, judged against the quest's stated criteria, wins.

No cash prizes. No pots. No points, coins, or tokens. Ever. The winner of a quest gets their social channel promoted on the completed quest page, permanently. That's the whole reward, and it's the point.

The only money on this site is a flat $2 fee to post a quest, which covers screening and keeps the board from drowning in spam. Posting a quest buys placement on the board — it does not buy an outcome, an audience guarantee, or influence over judging.

Winners are chosen by judged skill against each quest's published "how to win" criteria — never by random draw. Community votes are a stated judging criterion; obviously fraudulent voting (bots, bought votes, coordinated manipulation) is discounted, and ties are broken by judgment against the criteria.

All quests and proof submissions pass an AI safety inspection before going public. We reject anything dangerous, illegal, cruel, harassing, sexual, hateful, wager-shaped, or spammy. Ambiguous cases are held for human review. We remove anything, at any time, at our sole discretion. Post fees for removed quests are not refunded.

Complete quests lawfully and safely. Don't trespass, don't endanger yourself or others, don't involve people who haven't consented to being filmed. You are responsible for your own conduct while completing a quest.

You keep ownership of what you upload. By submitting, you give us a license to display it on the site and in share cards. Only upload media you have the right to share. To request removal of content featuring you, contact us below.

We store what you give us: quest text, handles, links, captions, and uploaded media. Payments are processed by Stripe — we never see your card number. We don't sell your data. Basic anonymous analytics measure site usage.

You must be 13 or older to submit content. Quests must be appropriate for a general audience.
