Ok, since all the possible hiders so far I have spoken with would all like different times, I shall just have to set a time myself. I will set it to 7 pm GMT/UC, thats\' 8 pm CET (for most of Europe) and 1 pm CST (for Central America). You can check the time for your part of the world
here. I\'ve chosen this particular time because the server stats tell that the most players are online at this time (if I am right about that, could someone confirm it please?). It means that the Autralian and far eastern hiders/seekers will probably not be able to make it, since it will be in the middle of the night there... I\'m very sorry for the players there who wanted to participate, but I just had to make a choice...
Furthermore I\'ve made some more decisions: if there will show up less that 5 hiders or less than 15 seekers, I think it will not be worthwhile and will probably cancel the event. But of course I am counting on it that this will not be necessary
One more thing: the event will last two hours at a maximum, if there are still some hiders not found then, then the hider can keep the prize for itself
I am still looking for more hiders... if you want to be a hider, please contact me in-game or send me an email (j.boven@gmx.net). You can also tell me half an hour before the event (6:30 pm GMT), when I will be at the plaza. You can choose your own hiding spot, but:
- it will have to be reachable for everyone without megajumping, flying or steep slopes which you can only climb in a particular angle
- it may not be too near a hider who has chosen his spot before you have chosen yours
- it must of course be a good hiding spot
not too well known, not too obvious and not wide in the open where you can be seen from many sides
If you do not know a good spot or if we (the other hiders and me) decide that your spot is not a good one, we can give you an other spot instead. Remember, as a hider you can also win prizes, because some prizes will be allotted among the hiders after the event! In fact you have a better chance to win a prize as a hider than as a seeker!
Also I would like it if the hiders with an own hiding spot could give me the exact position of the spot, which you can get when you use the /pos command at the hiding spot (type \"/pos\" in the chat window and look in the system channel/tab). This is because you can then be teleported there before the event by a GM, preventing people following you to the hiding spot and it will give a nice effect. Talking of which, which GMs could be present at that time?
Anyway, please everyone spread the word (in-game and out-game) that this Saturday 19:00/7:00pm GMT there will be a great hide and seek party in Hydlaa that will start at the plaza, and in which you can win fabulous prizes! I am confident that it will be fun, and hope you will all be there
