TDP Scout
Read full descriptionHide full description
Scout is the shared field guide for a crew that works on the road. Every city your team visits collects what they learned there. Where the food is worth the detour. Which hotel is actually near the venue. Who sells seamless paper at 8am when a roll gets crushed in transit. Post a tip and it lands in the city's book. Heard about somewhere but never been? Post a lead, and whoever gets there next can check it out. Need something nobody has found yet? Put up a bounty and let the crew hunt it down. Before a trip, Scout hands you a briefing: the team's picks for that city, what is still unscouted, and who knows the place best. Scout is invitation only. Your team's guide stays your team's.
