Mordaan tries to find a nice public spot and finds one at Harnquists, posting the following notice.
Introducing, Friday Night HAGS (Hide-And-Go-Seek) – sponsored by Explorers Guild
Following the recent success of an initiative by our guild to meet ingame and play games, we thought it would be a good idea to hold a regular game of HAGS on Friday nights open for all (from 2200 GMT until...whenever there is no more interest).
Our first week was a great success. We had lots of players join in and had games in Hydlaa, East Hydlaa, the Death Realm, then over to the Dungeon, a few games in Akkaio, and finally back to East Hydlaa. The games went on for six hours and we had lots of people joining. Thanks to Xeraans for organizing the event. Lots of fun was had by all so the plan is to do this every week. I hope many of you can join in. [OOC: Just do a /who explorers and ask a friendly neighborhood Explorer for details on where to meet or to be invited to the group. Just note who the group leader is so if you crash you know who to ask to be reinvited.] The nice thing is it will hopefully run for some time so you don't have to be there at any particular time, just join in the next game. But we plan to get things going somewhere around 2200GMT. Meet at Kada-El's at that time.
Here are the rules:
- All those interested join in a group
- Boundaries are chosen and all must find a hiding spot only within those boundaries (no changing zones, unless it is specified you can do so). And remain in that spot until found.
- One or two seekers are chosen, depending on how many are playing (volunteers are selected for the first game).
- Once a seeker has found someone they must /greet their target and announce in the group channel (since greet is only local – a bit of an honor system here).
- Once a hider is found, he/she becomes a seeker.
- The last one (or two) found become the first seeker(s) in the next round.
- No glitching or GM powers to get to places one cannot normally get to (or simply put, no hiding in places which require an /unstick to get out of).
- No looking in your guild window to see where guildmates might be.
For now its just for fun but if some donations are made perhaps we can offer prizes to the winners. It's a great opportunity to have some fun and go to some places in Yliakum a bit off the beaten path you might not ordinarily get to see. You may also come to look at things a bit differently in your day to day travels, noticing some dark corner as you pass by and thinking "ooh, now there would be a good hiding place".
Remember, every Friday night beginning at 22:00 GMT.
