Win a Fabulous Melinis home! :-D

[Burn]

In a fit of madness (a.k.a "I got radu's approval"), four homes in Melinis will be given away!*

 

 

*Winners get: Your name will be put on one of the 14 houses in Melinis city, meaning when players enter, it'll say "You entered the home of (player name)". It's not private, just a way to get your name in the game.

 

 

HOW: There will be 4 find-me contests announced in the game this coming week. I'll do them during different time periods so there's more chance for everyone to participate.

 

They'll be announced in blue spam, at which time you tune in to #jc 7 events channel.

 

From there, I'll start providing clues on where to find my alt TwistedSister, who will be in place but not logged in until the contest officially starts so noone can start looking early.

 

The clues will start very vague, and slowly get more details, with 1 new clue every 5-10 minutes. You'll need to use your map knowledge! (No secret areas will be used.) I WILL NOT respond to questions or requests for more clues in between, excepting only if a given clue needs clarification. It's not supposed to be easy.

 

 

Players may only win once. 4 different players' names are to appear on the homes.

 

 

 

You can pick which home, first win, first served. Names will be added with the 1.9.4 client release, and will remain so long as the house is not needed in 1.9.5 or later for an EL story purpose. Radu of course reserves the right to evict you at any time should you be a problem child who later ends up getting banned from the game. ;-)

 

I cannot redesign the house interiors. They need to stay in the proper theme. (I may be able to address a bed color change, or different flowers in a vase, or some other small items, but no overhaul changes.)

 

 

Coming at various random times this week!

 

 

 

 

Contest Rules:

1- It's the first person to click to TRADE my alt TwistedSister that wins. (Seeing me first won't count if someone else comes and click-trades me first.)

2- No PMs, and I will not answer questions. If a clue is a bit vague, it's supposed to be.

3- The name to go on the house will be the name of the character that trades me. No alt substitutions. Find me with the character whose name you want to use.

4- Only one win per person. (Give others a chance as well. Your alts are probably better known than you think, and attempts at winning a second time can result in you losing both. No patience or tolerance for the greedy.)

 

Notes:

- When I say "map" in a clue, I mean the TAB map, anything you can see when you press TAB would count for that map, inside or out.

- No secret locations - This means TwistedSister will not be in any place that requires a "use with" item, nor any area not accessible by a standard door, cave, sewer grate, flag, ladder... i.e. you won't be clicking random items like corks or rocks.
