Quest List

[Glaistig]

[b]MDNP would like to create a functioning quest list on the forums[/b], one that is actually updated. This is because we plan for the as of now unrealized newspaper to have a quest section, for the greater convenience and happiness of any single reader--with the additional bonus of encouraging participation in floundering quests! This is a tedious task for our yet small staff, so we need some help.

We would appreciate the following information about any active quest:

[b]Name:[/b] Quest Name
[b]Maker:[/b] whoever made the quest
[b]Started:[/b] DD-MMM (i.e. 12-Jan-09)
[b]Duration: [/b]until DD-MMM
[b]Objective:[/b] one or two lines summarizing or describing what the quest is
[b]Reward:[/b] the reward
[b]Additional notes:[/b] if you'd like to add something relevant

Anyone may contribute! If you see a quest that has not yet been added to this list, please help us out. With our collective effort and love, perhaps this list won't die as quickly as its pitiable predecessors!

~~~
[center][size=6]The List[/size] (so far)
[/center]
We will try our best to establish contact with the quest-maker if it is not him who reports his quest, so as to obtain the most accurate and comprehensive information.

[color="purple"]EDIT: the quest creater vote doesn't ''end'' you still have it if you become pwr/rpc, can you put a better description of the end date please[/color]

[Jazira]

Perhaps we could put the full quest here, so we dont still have to hunt down the actual quest giver? It would be a bit simpler, I think. All we have here are names, and what we have to do, but we dont have the actual quests here.

Just a suggestion.

[Glaistig]

Full quest? Like copy and paste a description and introduction of the quest the creator made? Well, they might be more useful in terms of actually starting the quest, but they tend to be relatively long. It might be fine on the forums but you must put your utmost effort into conserving space in a publication. I was thinking this would just serve the function of allowing players to see any active quests and pursue them if they're interested, especially because you need to hunt out the creator in the end if you're going to submit something as part of the quest.

However I can see that the information for the quests so far wouldn't really help, especially the for the objectives. Maybe we should have a more descriptive standard..

[Grido]

why not a short summary 1-2 lines instead of an objective? that would give the reader enough info to decide whether to pursue the quest or not i think

[Jazira]

Or have the objectives themselves be made to be one or two lines?

And I understand the need for space, I wasnt thinking about that when I posted before... me and my no-thinking-brain, lol

[Glaistig]

Mm, yeah, I changed the prompt detail a little.

I'm lazy--I will add the new quests at another time, maybe after a few more have been reported. In the meanwhile does anyone feel like adding on to their objective description?

~updated, but to undergo extensive editing

Thanks for the contributions, guys! Some information may be edited out or changed according to our purposes (and I still have to sort the entries by date). We are also probably going to change the objective prompt to a teaser. This list will serve to keep a record of exisiting quests, and will not include more information than necessary.
