CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS & CONTESTANTS! STARTS AT 8 PM EASTERN.

100k pot

50k non asked, generous donation from Untoxic. Bigger pot, HARDER rules. ( Thanks, bro!:))

EDITTED RULES: No adds of the volunteers, since I have one in each town, it shouldn't be that hard. So, you search the Townes & pick up as you see. A race to find the most items, still stands. Just harder.

I need 10 volunteers & 10 contestants.

The volunteers will stand in town with the 10 of the same item, for each contestant.

The contestant finds each volunteer. I'd make a noob character, if I were you, to avoid list jumping.

Rules:

Be the fastest. You can join whatever town however you like. Start from the one in Shadow Caves, Balefort, don't matter. Whoever reports back to me with all items wins 50k. You must add me, & the ten volunteers. If you spot the volunteer pm them "Contest", & they'll give you the item (once they spot you, as well, I know they can just pm you that). They will not move from that spot. The matches will start in 3 FH matches locked with the password "p", to prevent starting ahead. Otu, Myself, & CanonicalKoi will be in each room. This will span from every town. So, yes, you must have premium camps.

Once I get 10 volunteers, & 10 contestants. I shall update this post with a time, & we shall begin.

Volunteers: Generalriggs, Kraze, ScarecrowWolf, Toxicmerchant, Redbridge, GreatSpy, Xavier1zx, Jedispartan, Acy2000, Whirlzap. 10!! Done. (All who don't have me added, add me on that character & let me know here or in pm who to add back. [don't add randoms :o])

Contestants: RockGiant, Air, Fryce, XchilangopwnX, Darkpiccolo, Ievesori, Rosettes(maybe), Noobmigo,

It'll be held in every town. FH town, Balefort Town, Fathom Town, LE Town, SSC Town, Swamp Town, Balefort Town, AO town, & Shadow Town (Easiest town). Hence the title, you'll be around Alterra in 10 minutes or less.

Hope this goes well. Thanks!

P.S. When I get volunteers, add me in game, if we are not already friends. I'll give you each 10 of a different items from each other. For those who lose, just liquidate "said junk" for like 1k. Everyone wins. :D Also, don't tell your opponents where the character is, you wanna win. Don't you? Common sense, just stating. Anyway, hope y'all volunteer & play!

Thanks!

:)

Added all you guys to the OP, keep em' coming. I'll most likely do this tomorrow night. Haven't been asking in game, lol & I'm tired.

Btw, you expected this to take long, Otu? You're really dumb, forreal. *Antoine Dawson Voice* :rolleyes:

Otukura
08-03-2011, 11:19 PM
Edited out. You are awesome again.

Anyway, look at how long these "find ____" take. Was expecting it to take a bit longer, seeing as you need 10, but you know roughly where they are.

Wow, you have a lot of volunteers. How about a player then? You don't say WHEN this is though.
I'd rather volunteer but it looks like you need players. Count me in as a player, assusming I'll be on whenever you're holding this.
Or maybe it's already done...?

one question, what if a contestant can't find them, as in, they enter the town and the volunteer is in a different "version" of that town, then it wouldnt be a race, it'l be find all ten people
I might volunteer

You'll be volunteer or contestant, Air & The Flash?

Kanozaki... I said I need 10 volunteers & 10 contestants. So volunteer or player?

Still don't have 10, read the OP. I also said I'd update this when I have everyone. Which I don't... Which is why I didn't update with a time. Volunteer or player?

:)

That's why everyone adds each other & you join them & find them... Worse thing can happen is it says "full town" or volunteer iPod randomly dies.. That's what your FL is for, so you can join threm & see if they are on. It's all in the original post. :o

(If it says town full, just try another volunteer & comeback. Just gotta be he quickest at finding everyone. Simple)

You will volunteer, or no?

Aye, aye. Boy, y'all don't listen. :rolleyes:

Edit: Updated the OP!

Lol.. Y'all don't listen.. You'll have 10 of the SAME item. Each Volunteer has 10 different items from each other. You'll be destroying 1/10 items, but I trust the community more than that. Volunteer it is.

Generalriggs power is out, so Otu, you'll be taking his place. After, the contest begins. So, Dan, Bryn, & I will start the contest in the locked rooms.

All my volunteers leave your in game names, so I'll know who to add. C'mon! 5 more volunteers!

This will probably start 7 eastern time, which is 4 hours & 20 minutes from this post date.

Haikus
08-04-2011, 05:23 PM
Lol, noob. Ok. Add me.

Erm, Untoxic donated 50k, so since pot now is 100k. I'm changing rules, since I have a volunteer in each town. You shall start in a locked game with a volunteer, & search each type of town for the volunteer. Since, the prize money was doubled, from a kind gesture. So, it's harder. I'll update OP.

:)


Edit: Ok, air!

Wait, I don't get it.

Orrrrr, I could just explain it here. :o

Once I get everyone on. (which is extremely hard to do. :() You guys add me, you each start in one of 3 FH town, with a volunteer. You, then begin, searching townes for each volunteer, picking up an item. First with all ten and reports back to me, wins 100k.

noobmigo
08-04-2011, 06:21 PM
Oh, so you search the townes for each volunteer? I see...
So you can't add them?



EDIT: Huh...perhaps you can take a timer instead of doing "everyone gets on"
And will the certain volunteers be at every towne, so you just randomly towne it?

Hopefully all these guys are 55 or 56. That way it'll be easier. ;) *cough* make it harder *cough* Balefort will be hard though. Maybe sewers.

Haikus
08-04-2011, 06:25 PM

Not after Toxic doubled the prize money it isn't. At first.. it was. But, the pots bigger. So, harder challenge. :o

Edit: Timer?

All the contestants will know the volunteer and there level. Vice/versa. You can't look for someone, if you don't know who they are... :D

noobmigo
08-04-2011, 06:29 PM

THE POT IS 100k FGS! :p

Are you saving money for the Dance Club?

Uh, I'll donate whatever crap I have in my stash.

Conq Ursan Helm x1
Red Scarab Bow of Isis x1
Conq Crystalline Axe x1
war Hammer of Legend x1
Scorp Leather osiris x1
Osiris Wing
Conq Crystalline Shield
Conq Ironrock.

Not much, but you can always sell or give to volunteers as a item to give to the participants.

That's one of the other two.

& yeah, he asked could he donate. :p

Goodluck! If, we can get people on... Explain the timer, though? Give time, and start with who's on and who's not, doesn't get to play?

noobmigo
08-04-2011, 06:40 PM
Changed to Dance Club.

Timer. Just have people post here when they get to the FH game, and that's when the timer starts. The volunteers could manage the stopwatches, or maybe you could, who cares?

Then when they complete, that's when you stop the stop watch/ timer.

Haikus
08-04-2011, 06:55 PM

Lol. I should've not even posted a thread, and did it within game. Got 10 friends to volunteer, and 10 random contestants, or friends. I always have more than 20 people online, when I log on.
