THEY say there is no such thing as a boring place, just a boring person.

For those that make the regular trek into the city for work and play, the beautiful essence of Brisbane can lose its sheen after years meandering down the mall.

But users of the website Weekend Notes have taken up the personal challenge of Brisbane I-Spy, a game that aims to reignite people’s love of the river city and inspire tourists to take a second look.

Created by website user Claire Coe, the game is based around a list of quirky sights to look out for, each of which is worth a set amount of points.

For example, if you see a busker you can give yourself five points (double if you donate) and spotting your friendly neighbourhood mX distributor will earn you 10 points.

More elusive figures such as Stefan of hairdressing fame are worth upwards of 40 points.

The aim of the game is to get players to notice the unique features of Brisbane that tend to fade into the background once you’ve become accustomed to the city.

Helpful hint: The red-headed hipster girls on the list can often be found hanging out at Brew in Albert St.
