dst Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) Ok, so here it is: I am planning a contest (I will announce the date with 24 hours before). It is about rituals and creatures knowledge (what did you expect from me? ). To clarify one thing: I am planning it as in organizing it.But the idea was Akasha's who is also giving the huuge prizes . So she will have a word in choosing the winner for the second contest and will help with the trivia (in case of misunderstandings about who got the answer first) The best thing is that in fact there will be 2 contests: 1) A trivia: you know the drill: answer first and score 2) "Best questions": send me your trivia questions and the best ones will be selected. The player who has the most selected questions will be awarded. Also...he has a double advantage: he already knows the answer to them . 2nd contest has a deadline: tomorrow 12:00 server time (you have almost 16 hours to send me the questions via FORUM please). 1st contest will be held most probably on Day 279, I will announce the hour tomorrow because I don't know my schedule yet. As for prizes...check Akasha's post below [b]Update:[/b] to avoid any suspicion about me favoring players you will be the ones to vote for the best set of questions. I will post them all WITHOUT the name of the sender and you will vote Mur style: with arguments. The vote will be opened for 24 or 48 h hours (I'm not sure yet). You will vote AFTER the trivia [b]Update 2:[/b] Send also the answers. You will be judged based on that too. Edited October 6, 2009 by dst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dst Posted October 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 I said probably because I have a tight schedule this week and I don't know how soon I will be ready. I will give my best to complete it as soon as possible. That's why I will announce it 24 hours before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GgSeverin Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) Can't believe, shall I post questions here? I have thousand Q, but any answer is a spoiler! (do not have the answers...) Decent questions like: what level of tree can heal? That is what you expect? Open questions like: In what fights you can win using a bigger initiative than your opponent? (I wish I know that!) uh just now I figured how I should send the questions my neuron is somewhere out! [color="#0000FF"]Removed your questions. Send me via PM on the forum please.

Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted October 5, 2009 Root Admin Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I don't think having ALL comtest questions public is a good idea .. what if someone will prepare all the answers and use copy paste during the competition. Its not that hard to answer any question of you have enough time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smartalekrj Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 i have to agree with mur on that... I had some impossible questions in one of my quests and yet at least 50 people were able to find the answers quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dst Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Ok...you got me wrong....I will make the questions public AFTER the trivia. Also I will make public only the questions (not the answers) because of the big spoilers they contain. And for trivia I will select the best questions and I will probably add some myself (i haven't read yet the questions so I don't know how good they are).

dst Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Deadline for sending questions expired. I will not accept questions sent from now on. I will centralize them, choose the ones that I find the best and let you all know the date and time of the contest (right now I think it will be Friday at noon since I have no time tomorrow or on Thursday).

Akasha Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 We finally came to a stat date and time, rules of the contest, organizing the questions and prizes are still discussed. [b]Meeting place[/b]: Room of[color="#ff0000"][b] Indexed Memories[/b][/color] (where else can we hold a knowledge contest then not in a place full of books?) [b]Contest time[/b]: 15:00 (we all gather). [color="#ff0000"][b]15:15[/b] [/color]it will start.Time is [color="#ff0000"][b]SERVER TIME day 281[/b][/color]. [b]Rules[/b]:[b] [color="#ff0000"]BEHAVE![/color] [/b]If not...you will be sent to GOE which will make you lose some of the questions aka you can lose the contest. And when we say behave we mean: no arguing, no shushing, no complaining and [b]no rp[/b]! We want a clean fight! The less the spam in the chat box the more the chances you get to actually see the questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
