shallara Report post Posted August 4, 2007 (edited) Thanks to the ingenuity of our contest designers, there's been contests of all types that incorporate different kinds of strategy, targeted to different skills. This one is different. ANNOUNCING an ALL AROUNDER CONTEST I'm not going to limit to specific levels and above. HOWEVER. To do well in this contest you will want to have decent levels (30+ and knowledge!) in Alchemy, Potions, Manufacturing, and Crafting It is finally time for those with the perseverance and dedication to level all the mixing skills to be rewarded. Put on your thinking caps, get that next level or two. This will test your problem solving skills as well as your mixing. We have a lot of planning and preparation to do, the time and date will be announced as the event approaches. The prizes will be well worth the effort!! *** more info to come *** Edit: If you know you're eligible and interested, please post here. *if* the contest will be limited to a certain number of contestants, they will be chosen in post reply order Unfortunately, the contest will be limited to certain number of contestants. We will try for ten slots. when the date and time is set, slots will be filled in order of original posting, if the player is available to compete at that time. We will also have a couple of alternate spots in case a person isn't on at the time of the contest. Prize list so far (winners will be able to choose in order of placement) 100k gc 20 USD to spend in EL shop Potioner Pack - 2k vials + 2k wine + 2k blue quartz + 4k blue stars Manuer Pack - 1k steel bars, 1500 leather + 3k thread Crafter Pack - 1k sanders, 1k raw saps, 2k water ess, Alcher Pack - 8k gold ore, 8k silver ore, 6k coal Fighter Pack - 100 aug torso, 100 aug pants, 100 leather boots, 10 steel shields Rounder Pack - 2k feasting pots **Edit: while prize packs have been decided on, they are not yet complete.
