gossip Report post Posted March 17, 2007 (edited) Well, it's my birthday, and I've decided to hold my favorite kind of contest- a popularity contest! All you need to do is have people use my 'admire' command for you! Anabella and LeKiller (RIP) each donated a Crown of Life, and they will go to the winning boy and girl avatars. You can be King or Queen for a day! Here's how it will work. The contest will be held on Saturday, March 24, US central time. So, it will start and end at these times in your location: Start Time Started! End Time Ended, sorry! In case clocks aren't quite exact, I would stay away from the 10 minutes after the contest starts, and before it ends, just in case. You get one point each time somone admires you, using the command '/gossip admire yourname'. There's a 12 hour cooldown on admirations, but if someone timed it out right, they could easily admire you twice during the contest, and that's allowed. You don't have to be logged on to have it count, but I won't count admirations from players that were created after this announcement, so don't bother creating a bunch of new players to vote for yourself. There's three ways you can get points: You're a cool person, and people just admire you. You could ask people to admire you. You could pay people to admire you. Quid pr0 quo! (My lawyer says that to me before he takes me out on a date... not sure what it means tho...) If you really think that you're all that admirable, feel free to post here to tell others why you deserve their "vote"! Players that are disqualified from the contest are: Anabella & LeKiller (sponsors), Anyone in the CEL guild (I already know how popular my guildies are) Anyone that has been a knob and I've had to ignore, and.. Me! I know I'm the most popular person in EL, so it wouldn't be fair for me to enter. Gossip Edited March 25, 2007 by Gossip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, it will start and end at these times in your location: Start Time End Time Just to clarify- the contest hasn't started yet... it runs just this coming Saturday. All of a sudden, a lot of people are doing admires, so I think some of you are confused about that. Gossip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gossip Report post Posted March 23, 2007 Somebody (shhh.. don't tell anybody, but it was caecus) pmed me on the forum to ask if a bot was eligible to win this contest. What a silly question! A bot is just a program! How could it win? And if it did, it wouldn't exactly get excited about it.... Anyhow.. no.. bots can't win. The contest starts in about 6 hours... so good luck!

Duck2 Report post Posted March 24, 2007 DucKYo speaks the truth... Duck2 loves crowns too But I bought a new one two days ago, so I don't need one (although another one would be nice...). So admire one the nice people that make this friendly game community possible instead, one of our very nice game moderators. --Duck2 (PS. I doubt Radu needs a CoL... so don't bother ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gossip Report post Posted March 24, 2007 Cash prizes for the runners up! Just my luck! My rich Uncle Lester from Aeth Aelfan died, and I just got a letter telling me that instead of leaving me anything, he left a bunch of gold coins as additional prizes for my popularity contest. So, the boy and girl getting the most 'admire's win the Crowns of Life, the second most admired boy and girl will get 25k gold coin each, and the third place couple will get 10k each. Good luck.. there's a whole lotta admirin' going on today! I had planned on going on vacation to EverQuest with my inheritance... oh well. Gossip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gossip Report post Posted March 25, 2007 And the winners are... Well, the popularity contest is over, and I have the winners tabulated. There was a whole lot of admiration going on yesterday. I could hardly keep up! The winners, (and King and Queen of EL for a day, I think) are: echo, a female elf from HIM vampire16, a male elf from MAGE they each win a Crown of Life! The runner's up are: syllenia, a female elf from -DD- trogov, a male human from BOC They each get 25k gold coin each! (my inheritance!) kylara, a female draegoni from (TC) justmental, a male human from DAO & lynxxx, a male human from LGC (Tied!) kylara will get 10k gc, and since there was a tie, the two guys will get 5k each. My helper, scafativ, will get with each of you in game to distribute the prizes! Thanks for playing. It really warmed my heart to see people other than myself getting admired.
