Roleplaying Event?
« on: November 24, 2008, 02:06:09 am »
     So, I went to the plat mines (I know, I suck) today to save up money for Awards for a contest ingame.  The idea is for it to be a kind of scavenger hunt, and it will be initiated by me and a helper or two placing invitations at different points of activity with a time and place written on them to show up for the event.  Hopefully 5 or more people will show up for the event (ten invitations will be placed, and you won't be able to enter unless you have one.) which will involve twice the original number of people by the time it ends.  The event has several stages and will be a race after a certain stage, in which, after proving their worth by finding and bringing in several items, they are sent out to hunt for a specific person (who is hiding and will hand out certificates so that the finders can prove they found he/she/it) and then bring back proof that they found them to the starting point.  I estimate that the entire event should take no more than 2 hours once the participants show up and will be entirely contained within hte walls of Hydlaa and between there and the general plat mining area.  The rewards will be:
10000 Tria and 3/10 of certain objects gathered in the hunt(first place).
5000 Tria and 2/10 of the previously mentioned objects(second place).
2500 Tria and a pair of quality 121 Daggers(Yeah I made them myself.  Third place).
A quality 121 Dagger(fourth place).
A coal lump and an apple(for everyone after fourth place).(Yeah, I'm poor AND evil).

There will be two people in each place, so they each get the aforementioned reward. If anyone could post any suggestions or criticisms it would be helpful, thanks.

make sure you specify the time zone on the information, you do not want people to miss it because they assumed it was their local time.

     I was thinking more in-game time, that way there are no time-zone problems.

Hehe.. that would be hard. 6 days pass for every one of our days. The In game would still be different. I don't think it is exact yet.

I know I know  :offtopic: but I gotta ask...  Why?  Why can't we just have some sort of normal time passage rather than having game time go so fast?

Then some people could never see daylight in their time zone, Not everyone plays all day or at different times of the day. Besides if you bother to RP time of day, which would be nice, then that would be a real pain in the behind. And the time can pass a lot slower than you think.
