The Great Pashweetie Posted October 2, 2010 Report Posted October 2, 2010 (edited) Golemus golemcarium is normally unihabited and many players who play it could never reach it and be perfectly fine. I want to give purpose to this place with a contest for the first 3 players will get a reward the first to reach me in ke'latha. Prizes purposed: 1st place: 3 wish points 2nd place: 2 wish points 3rd place: 1 wish points Or.. 1-3rd place will get a wishpoint. or... 3S for first 2s for second 1s for 3rd or... 1s for the first three places Edited October 8, 2010 by The Great Pashweetie Asterdai, MRAlyon, Kyphis the Bard and 6 others 1 8
Shadowseeker Posted October 2, 2010 Report Posted October 2, 2010 Sorry, what exactly should they do, enter GG? Join GG? I'm not sure what you propose. Also, 3 WP codes, to be used in quests, or 3 WP rewarded? There's a rule of no more than 1 wp per quest, you'll be in trouble for more.
lightsage Posted October 2, 2010 Report Posted October 2, 2010 I'm there... Going to give me a WP for those couple of minutes it took me?
Root Admin Chewett Posted October 2, 2010 Root Admin Report Posted October 2, 2010 no no no no no no no thats like free wishpoints for whoever its a stupid idea because its so easy, AND its total wishpoint Devaulation. Its not even hard! If this quest ever goes ahead, i will complain as much as i can that it was "fixed" so that certain people will get wishpoints. Quests like these are so simple to rig and i feelt that most of these 5 minute quests are just used to give friends WP's Asterdai 1
Shadowseeker Posted October 2, 2010 Report Posted October 2, 2010 Well, that took me a few mins, I'd be 2nd..if you ask me though, this isn't worth a WP, whatever some people claim about quick quests. Watcher and Asterdai 1 1
Metal Bunny Posted October 3, 2010 Report Posted October 3, 2010 Totally. Not. Worth. It. Asterdai and Watcher 1 1
Asterdai Posted October 3, 2010 Report Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) i second all of this 3 wishpoints for first place WTF? no quest gives 3 wishpoints, ONE wishpoint is like rewarded for a first place, in any quests.. let alone something so silly as "meet me in this place" if it happened in Loreroot to meet someone in the oak tower or something, it would be just as ridiculous. (the reward for entering GG is obvious, it is to be able to explore the uninhabited place, and study its importance, before being stuck until you find a way out! duhh! ) Edited October 3, 2010 by Asterdai
CrazyMike Posted October 3, 2010 Report Posted October 3, 2010 Quest like this gives serious quest makers a bad name. Its totally luck! Where is the challenge? Asterdai and Eon 1 1
Pipstickz Posted October 3, 2010 Report Posted October 3, 2010 This isn't even serious, I doubt pashweetie even has WP to give.
The Great Pashweetie Posted October 3, 2010 Author Report Posted October 3, 2010 I now see the faulties but this is only for players who havent finished the labrynth, an incentive for them to go to gg so that it will be more popular.
Harion Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 wouldn't you get stuck in GG if you go there?
Curiose Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 You used to be stuck in GG once you go through the maze. However, if you click one of the pyramids it will take you to the maze once more. I agree with all stated above. There is no point. It would be like giving away an A+ to the student in the beginning of the year without them really doing any hard work. The real reward should be the fact that they can figure out their way through the maze and make their way to GG. I don't think WP incentives will get more players through there. Sure, it would be nice to have a WP, but thing is: What is the lesson that they are learning? It is just like giving away spoilers to someone who asked. Kyphis the Bard and Asterdai 2
Udgard Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 So now, I guess you've got a hold of the public reaction on this, right? I won't say your intentions are bad, but I think you should change the prize to anything than a WP. Do NOT put ANY WP as a reward for this quest. WP codes are fine if you wish to, though.., but really the only people who would consider the task remotely a "quest" would be very new players, and they barely need any WP codes.
apophys Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 Since the task is directed toward newbies, an appropriate reward could be LR creatures or unholy priests.
Curiose Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 I agree on appropriate rewards, but rather rewards associated with that land or neutral rwards, such as gold/ silver instead of creatures. But that is just me.
The Great Pashweetie Posted October 8, 2010 Author Report Posted October 8, 2010 [quote name='Harion' timestamp='1286151869' post='69590'] wouldn't you get stuck in GG if you go there? [/quote] NO, there is now a way to get out of GG ive been there and back as a matter of fact 3 times and have never had to use anything of ordance.
Yrthilian Posted October 9, 2010 Report Posted October 9, 2010 well you would have been much better off comming to me or grido to talk about such a thing.As we are the ones the are caretakers of golemus it might have been best to ask us about it. You would have had sound advice from ether one of us letting you know that this would be a way to easy quest to complete. I would also doubt any one would give WP's for this sort of quest. I for one would have suggested a diffrent way of running something like this as it is easy to enter Golemus you could have made it a proper race useing clickable like MasterB did for the GG race he ran a while back this idea could have been fleshed out much further to add complicated ways of getting into Golemus and there for give more intrest to the quest. Sorry but the idea is a bad one from the point of what your proposed but cxould have been a good one if you had cme to the right people. Kyphis the Bard 1
