Updated with when the contests occur.

Hey ST!
Hey I so remember you sitting getting Silver ore.
I still have nightmares.
-
Running time has been added.
-
LMAO @ the branding one.
-
why not boost shield and make it a useful spell (and level dependent) and have that as good, then attacking spells like harm poison are evil only?
I'd rather all alignments be able to use any spell, but depending on which way you lean, a spell can become more or less powerful (i.e., a good person's healing spells get a boost, but suffers from lower harm damage)

UPDATE
A newer method to prevent cheating is going to be included. For any search-and-find quests, a timer will be inserted after the first person to find me (up to 3 can find me for points). Three minutes after the first person finds me, the quest ends. This'll prevent naughty little boys from finding me and telling their friends.
Enjoy

I will also award the moderators who help me host the contests (since theycannot join) prizes just for being that awesome. smile.gif
Meep, we cant join? ;(
Only the ones who help me host it. They will get their own prizes though, don't worry.

Looks like tons of fun.

The Great Silver Rush
Running Date: Hiatus (Still finding mods to host it at different hours)
This will be a contest that will run a week long filled with multiple quests and trivia about silver. The prizes for this will be a total of 550k (yes, 550000) silver ore awarded to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. Stay tuned to this thread for more updates.
Contest Times
Since a maximum of 5 contests are run per day, I'll keep the exact times I have planned secret. However, to make it a little easier on you guys, I will let you know the contests will only run at the start of every hour. (Which means, when it is 3:00pm your time, a contest MAY run, or it may run at 4pm, 8pm, 1am, etc: it will never run at any time other than at the top of the hour). Will prevent the silly kiddies from camping the whole contest.
Guidelines
The guidelines are very simple. Multiple trivia questions and quests
will be run a week long. For all quests and trivia questions,
a first, second, and third place winner will be named. Points are
awarded based on what place a person comes in. The chart appears
like so:
1st Place: 5 points2nd Place: 3 points3rd Place: 1 pointAs you can see, it's very beneficial to constantly win contests,
but even if you win first place, it doesn't put you too far ahead.
So keep trying!
Also, on a further note, some questions asked will not be EL related,
so start brushing up on RL silver lore too.
Prizes
Will make this section short. Prizes will be awarded to only those who
finish up with a total number of points to put them in first, second, or
third place. Prizes for each is as shown:
1st place: 400k silver ore2nd place: 100k silver ore3rd place: 50k silver oreGood luck.
Rules
1. Rule changed. OMIT
2. If you are banned from contests BEFORE it begins, you are
disqualified. That rule will not change in any case (UNLESS
you were acquitted for a good reason).
3. There will be a maximum of five different quests/trivia questions
done per real life day. However, this doesn't mean there will
always be five. There can be only one if time doesn't permit.
Any whining about this forfeits your participation and any points
you have amassed.
4. No PMs to me or any moderator asking for help on trivia or hints
to where I may be located. That is grounds for disqualification
and probably a nice smiting.
5. If you're a frequent accused person in the outlaws forums (and you have
been proven to be there for good reason), you may not participate.
This does not apply to PvP related cases (unless you lure newbies to PK maps).
6. A newer method to prevent cheating is going to be included. For any
search-and-find quests, a timer will be inserted after the first person to find
me (up to 3 can find me for points). Three minutes after the first person finds
me, the quest ends. This'll prevent naughty little boys from finding me and
telling their friends. To make it even out, the hints to find me will also
be slightly more obvious.
Times
The contest runs for seven consecutive days. No skipped days.
Since I want to have many people join in, I will give a two weeks
notice ahead of time before the contest week is run. That should
be ample time to make plans for it.
Also, to add a small twist, this contest will be run throughout the
day (yeah, I'm throwing out my sleeping pattern) to be fair to those
who don't live near my timezone.
Any PKing or PvPing going to be involved?
None. I don't believe in that so I won't make players go through it
either. However, I may end up hiding on a PK map if permits.
That's at your own risk to investigate then.
Any additional prizes awarded?
That's yet to be decided. If all that silver wasn't enough already,
I may award extra smaller prizes to the harder questions and quests given
out. We'll see.
I will also award the moderators who help me host the contests (since they
cannot join) prizes just for being that awesome.

There comes a time in every ma.. oh to hell with it. This an incomplete list
of cheaters, scammers, Nazi youth, etc, who won't be participating.

If your ban time expires before the contest begins, you may join.
If not, too bad.
Remember guys, this is for fun and enough silver to make you also enter rehab.
So have fun and start getting ready!

Well, he died doing what he likes best...
That was more than a job to him: that was his life. How many of us will get to die doing something we enjoy?
-
Oh dear, someday I'll get posted in outlaws by a phantom warrior from Naralik for killing him, while training. It's the same principle.
Can you get posted in outlaws for killing what's already dead?

Lol unbelievable. Burn him. Alive.

Tonight I worked at the invisibility spell, which is almost done.
I still have to finish stuff such as making the invisible actors look like a ghost for those with true sight and themselves, make it so you decloak when attacking or casting a spell on someone, and various other tests.
But the preliminary analysis looks promising.
So this spell will be in the game (test server, that is) tomorrow. If the extended tests will be OK, we can have it for the update.
P.S.
It last for 20-30 seconds, and requires 30 essences in total (3*10).
P.P.S. There will be a true sight spell to see invisible entities.
I hope it's got a delay on attacking people when you decloak.. otherwise I smell some major PK abuse coming.
Assuming they're true sight-less.

Don't think the idea is to cure slang, just to operate with a certain modicom of courtesy - for instance, in this case, "git" is a Southern US slang term for "get" (as in "get lost", "go away"). In certain other circles, it has other meanings - "idiot", "completely ignorant, childish, and lacking in manners", acronym for "Gentleman In Training", and so on.
While residents of the Southern US may be most familiar with it one way, one must keep in mind that more people play this game than any one local region, and others not familiar with that colloquialism may not see it the same way. For that reason, you should be careful who you are talking to, and what you say in local - If we all speak in one language, cutting down on our slang, we can understand what we all are saying to each other better, without such accusations flying around over miscommunications.
Well, that's just it though -- speaking slang comes pretty much naturally to the speaker. It's not like fixing a habit. It's like trying to alter a personality.

Terrorists are for sure far from being freedom fighter.
Dalaj Lama is freedom fighter - he is not terrorist, though.
I'm sick with people claiming to be freedom fighters and using terror as the mean. I'm sick with people that excuse killing innocents with "we need to get the world attention" or "they deserved it, because we are fighting for our freedom" or "our freedom is worth these victims". It's just bullshit.
Amen.

I still say just add exp loss. Makes those with rostogols that die in PK zones still take a hit. Just not a monetary hit.
Of course, don't make it so much experience loss that hours of work are lost by it (maybe 30 minutes-1 hour's worth). Not really putting much thought in this.
B-Day Party!
