The Collective's First Annual Winter Goober Games

**Attention Goobers. The First Annual Winter Goober Games has officially begun.**

**May the odds be ever in your favor.**

Exclusive contest for all members (Officers Included) of The Collective

Duration
Dec 9, 2013 - January 1, 2014

Brief Overview:
Each party will contain (2) members, one Mythical, and one non Mythical. They will be competing against other (2) member teams setup in the same fashion in a Pure Timed Elite Run in a map specified in the details to follow. You will only be allowed to use RARE pets that are comprised of within the "Beastmaster" Title. Screen shots of your party before the run starts and after the run is completed is required to count your entry as successfully entered. You may run the map as many times as you please to aim for a better time, but once you submit your first entry, you WILL NOT be able to change your partner. Further in-depth details of all rules and requirements will be outlined below.

Rules
(Subject to change if officials agree rule is unfair or creates a disadvantage towards other teams)

Your completed run must be at least 10 Minutes or Less.
All parties will contain only (2) members and they CANNOT be of the same class.
There must be one Mythical and one non Mythical member in each party. (What qualifies as a Mythical character is if you have any Mythical Armor or if you are welding a Mythical Weapon. Also Mythical Rings and Amulets are not allowed.)
Arcane items are NOT ALLOWED.
Only rare pets from the original "Beastmaster" Title are allowed. (Refer to: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...stmaster-Guide , the ones in GREEN are your rare pets to choose from. Everyone has access to a rare pet, which includes your STARTER pet so there can no be excuses for not having access to a rare pet.)
You CANNOT change your pet mid-run. You must have the same pet throughout the whole run, you may however change your pet if you decided to start a WHOLE NEW run.
As this is a Pure Run, no Elixirs of any sort are allowed. A Platinum Resurrection will automatically turn your pure run into an Elixir Run for those who do not know. Also I was told a Lep reroll will turn it into an Elixir Run, use at your own risk!
You may not switch partners once your first entry has been submitted, so choose your partner wisely. You may however run with many different combinations as you please as long as you HAVE NOT submitted your first entry yet. Otherwise you are stuck with the player you submitted an entry with.
You may run the map as many times as you please to achieve your fastest time.
You are limited to using only one toon throughout the whole contest, this include any alts you may have, so choose wisely.
Any player that is found to be cheating or exploiting the game content in any way to gain an advantage for their team will not be tolerated. (This will lead to an automatic DQ for the entire team and will also result in further disciplinary action which may result in removal from the guild entirely. The Collective does not support or condone any type of cheating, scamming or exploiting of any type within the AL Community.)

Correctly submitting screenshots:
In order for your entry to be counted, all required screenshots must be posted in this thread.
Screenshots of the party before the run starts and after the run is completed are required. (Your pets MUST be in your avatar screenshots.)

Both party members must take a screenshot of their equipment showing which one is the designated Mythical member and which is not the Mythical member.

Example can be seen here:



Both party members must also take a BEFORE and AFTER screenshot of their avatar screen which shows their PvE Deathcount and the pet they are using for the run.

Example can be seen here:



A screenshot of the whole party BEFORE and AFTER must be taken with their pets.

Example can be seen here:



So each submission should contain a total of (10) screenshots. (5) for each member.

When you submit your pictures, please list your party members, their level, their class, who is the Mythical Toon and who is not and also please put your completed run time even though the picture will show it. This is just for a double confirmation.


The Elite Map to be Run
Our choice for the map to be run was based on length and difficulty of mobs geared towards level 35/36 players.
Map: Elite Grog Beach - Kraken Isles

Prizes - For each member of the team (MORE PRIZES MIGHT BE ADDED BEFORE THE CONTEST STARTS)
Grand Prize - Crawly Egg, X-Mas Vanity of their choice (Rogue, Warrior, Sorcerer)
2nd Place - 150K gold, X-Mas Vanity of their choice (Rogue, Warrior, Sorcerer), Vlad Egg
3rd Place - 100K gold, X-Mas Vanity of their choice (Rogue, Warrior, Sorcerer), McCraw Egg
4th Place - 50K gold, Ethyl Egg, Squash Egg
5th Place (Last) - One Deary Egg for each team member. (One man's garbage is another man's treasure. Maybe this will help some complete the "Beastmaster" title.)
"As PURE as you can get" Prize - If the first place winners are both NON MYTH, there will be a special prize TBD given to both.
