Next Picnic Time(s) is decided:
13th November
23:00pm (server time) - Tranquil Plains
14th November
12:00pm (server time) - Tranquil Plains
All are welcome, this is a great chance to meet other players and make new friends. There will also be opportunities to earn some easy silver (albeit in small amounts). As an incentive I currently have 3 silver (apart from what is being used for the contest) that is up for grabs for anyone who really livens up the picnic. This may be split up and given to two or three players or, if someone makes the picnic exceptionally fun they will get all of it.
This time there will also be a contest. It involves participating in a series of three games which will earn you points. The person with the highest number of points will get 3 silver and the person with the second highest will get two silver. As there are two picnic times there will also be two contests however only the person with the highest score overall (regardless if they participated in the first or second contest)will be awarded the prize. The games are:
Guess the Title (5 points) - A title of one of the CE members will be given. You must name the player that owns the title and pm me with your answer. 1 point is given for each correct answer.
Appease Muffin (5points) - Muffin, the Cake Master's pet baby mutant cake has for some reason become disagreeable and angry. You will be given two chances to 'appease Muffin'. Points will be awarded for degree of success and creativity. Each attempt will be scored out of 2 with 0 given for unsuccessful attempts, 1 for marginal success and 2 for completely appeasing Muffin. The fifth point will be awarded according to the creativity of your method. (as judged by me, Methys)
Cake Design Competition (Five points)- Come up with an idea for a new cake with a description of its appearance, description and effects (if it has any). Check the MD cakebook for an idea of what you need to do. Points are awarded for creativity, detail and appeal (ie a cake of rocks is not very appealing. Again it will be judged by me). Submissions should be sent through pm.
Rules of Participation:
1. No alts allowed
2. No groupwork
3. Pm's must be sent before the 23:59pm, 14th November
The contest prize will only be given out if there are at least five participants. Also if there is a tie for first place a tie breaker will be held and the loser will get the second place prize. (if there are more two people tied then the tiebreaker will still be used and first and second place will get the prizes)
