Atreides* Report post Posted March 31, 2004 Update and final thoughts Winner: Yept - who has spent his winnings on maxing his Attributes Second: Jiggy - Not been online at same time as me - still owed 200 plat and 12 Gold Bars Third: No-one. Completed the course: Tanek, Acid1394, Cabaletroll ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Post mortem: The course was OK, but clues were not easy enough for complete beginners: Only 7 players made it to check point 2 (Library in WSC). ** Clues need to be clearer. Not all knew that clicking the sign-posts took you from map to map. ** Some basic stuff needs to be spelt out before commencement Sign up was a fiasco. ** Don't know how to resolve that. I posted the wrong start time for Americans :shock: We had three who wanted to start an hour late - Mea Cupla ** Be more careful Asking players to make stuff in return for whispered clues doesn't work. Too long a delay to trade items back and forth + type in names to Whisper caused some frustration. ** Don't PM clues - Don't ask then to make too much - maybe once only for final checkpoint. We forgot the Temple of the Attack God in Votd!!! Some newbies entered whilst looking for the lair and died! ** That was just stupid of us. :twisted: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If anyone who took part wants to post input. Please feel free. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks to ALL Mods and NHs who helped BC the Event : Roja, Ogerawa, Scartissue, Tumaros. Especial thanks to Moonshadow for trying to stop them entering the Attack God Temple and bring me a bag of lost items (returned to player). Thanks to any BCer I forgot.

Roja Report post Posted March 31, 2004 heheh, thanks for the summary there And thanks for holding the event! I am sorry that I did not make it. Well not everything goes as we planned, but seeing what needs to be done you can then make it better for a next time...although i find it funny that the one guy used the prize money to max his atts...since they will all be gone in a few days ah well..so will his prizes!! hehehehee :twisted: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I advised him too so he could carry more and gain XP faster from the reasoning. I did advise him that only his XP and skills woul dbe retained and that he would be best served by getting as much as possible done. I hope I did right :shock: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
