Dear Wayfarers:
In this thread you will find the
RULES,
TIPS/FACTS and
RUMORS surrounding the upcoming October 5th, 2003 Scavenger Hunt. Both the RULES and the TIPS/FACTS are set in stone. There is no question surrounding their validity.
RUMORS, on the other hand, may be
TRUE or
FALSE and will be handed out over the next few weeks both here and in game. Neither Palan nor I take any responsibility for the consequences of actions based upon RUMORS, due to their questionable reliability.
RULES
1) This is a TEAM competition. Teams will consist of no more than 3 members. Each team member must be a Wayfarer of Veeshan in good standing.
2) All participants must be between 29th and 58th level, inclusive.
3) All teams will have one designated LOOTER. The LOOTER for each team is the LOWEST level member of the team (If there is a tie, the team will designate which one person is the LOOTER before play begins). The LOOTER is the person who must pick up each item in the Scavenger Hunt and have it on their person to get the points for that item.
4) This is a TIMED, highest-points-wins, winner-take-all competition. Each teams LOOTER must return to the starting point in the time allowed, to receive points for their items. Point values will be attached to each item (or group of items) before play begins. Final team scores will be based upon the items ON the LOOTER, at the end of the hunt, MULTIPLIED by the following modifier (based upon the highest level character in your team):
<table border>
<tr>
<td>If the HIGHEST level
character on your team is:
<td>Then all your points
will be multiplied by:
<tr>
<td align=center>29-38th level
<td align=center>5
<tr>
<td align=center>39-48th level
<td align=center>3
<tr>
<td align=center>49-58th level
<td align=center>1
</table>
5) All players must have ANON turned *OFF* during the Hunt.
6) To encourage interactions within the guild (which is one of the primary purposes of this event), no 2- (or 3-) boxing will be allowed.
(edited 8/26/2003 to correct an oversight):
7) All players should have all expansions except LDoN (Kun, Vel, Luc, PoP and LoY) as well as all optional zones (Jaggedpine, Stonebrunt) loaded to maximize their access to items.
*** BUT DO NOT BEGIN FORMING TEAMS YET !!!!!! ****
TIPS/UNDISPUTED FACTS
1) Have as many empty bags on you as you can, capable of holding a variety of sized items.
2) Travel light, travel strong, as some of the items weigh a lot and you don't want encumberance weighing you down early.
3) All items in the Hunt will be NODROP.
*** BUT DO NOT BEGIN FORMING TEAMS YET !!!!!! ****
Over the next 2 weeks, RUMORS will be posted in this thread. After all the rumors have been posted, we will put out a call for TEAM REGISTRATION. Registration will be open until 15 minutes before the hunt itself. Here is your first official RUMOR...take it, like all of the rumors, with a grain of salt (except the one about bribing the officials, hehe):
OFFICIALLY SANCTIONED RUMOR #1
"I heard that some of the items will have to be pried from the cold, dead hands of a monster."
