The winner walks in, takes a quick bow, pins up a for sale notice on a 8.8Longsword and leaves again

Siteri - I am sure there will be another one. I helped out as "station" in the current, and from my PoV, it was some rather advanced event - they really had to know both many NPC quests, and many locations. We had 8 stations to visit, but already at the 3rd station we missed a few members, and not even half of the starters finished the quest at all.

1) Sov
2) Alliva
3) Merryn
4) Eliseth (+ Giniley -- yes, teamwork!)

So I hope that the next event might be a little easier, and also maybe a bit more limited regarding the distances to travel. Especially newer people have a hard time not getting lost.

About the prizes:

Holla! I was impressed about the amount and value. So it is definitely worth attending!

Congratulations to the winners and I am sorry I missed it.  \\o//

As for the distances, yes suddenly our world is much larger now  :o

The riddles had been orginally written for a "smaller" yialkum, adapted for the larger world when it became necessary. I think perhaps focusing on different areas of yialkum will be a thought in future quests.

And the prizes merely reflected the difficulty of the competition, truly the winners earned a healthy reward  ;D

I will talk to Sreamah about perhaps rating future competitions into Beginners, moderate, and advanced to give people a better idea of how difficult the challenge before them is.

[since part of the Scion training in the lower levels is questing, questing, questing {to get to know the world and it's people} we may have overlooked, that not all are questing fiends like us!!  :lol: ]

Cheers and congrats again to the winners and thank you to all who were willing to give it a go!!  :thumbup:

Well, it turns out I wouldn't have had enough time to finish the thing anyway, and since you had to know about lots of regular quests I probably wouldn't have been able to finish even if I had the time.

Ah, here seem to be more news from this event.
I was on my way from magic shop to Ojave when I spotted croud at plaza and there was announced to be big event so as I am bit curious I came closer, somehow I managed to miss all riddles and stuff, maybe standing too far, so I got part from here and other from there, it was bit difficult to find out what was going on then.I was so slow that when I reached place of first teller there was nobody left anymore, that time winners was already known so you can say that I was no good at all this time  :D

Looking forward for next event, maybe then I will spot information about it on time so I won't miss all tips and rules part  :)

This morning I thought of a good idea for those who missed it or couldn't get to all the questions...

Why not post the questions used in the competition on the forums and have people who hadn't already done those questions in the competition try to answer them? That way everyone gets a chance. It could be kind of a consolation round.

Or, if you really want everyone to be able to try to answer every question, just PM them to people who ask, then they'll PM the answers back.

I can post the list once I contact Sreamah to get all the questions... {away right now} but if people are interested I am more than happy to do it.

Cheers
