Most of the ideas were either very good or impracticable but funny. This entry (the first of many to suggest this) wins the 20k! It will not, however, be how I use the money. Announcement on that front soon.

I'd like to thank all of the fine citizens of Vesper for this honor. I'll do my best to defend this server from the evil temptations of pixel crack. This prize will be used towards the building of my own fortress of solitude on this very server! I'd also like to thank B_D for this special honor; through their inspiration of this content and the donation of their castle they have funded a fledgling mild mannered reporter on this server with their contribution to Chumbucket's entertainment fund.

And now, I must be off...

Not to be a buzzkill, but, and don't get me wrong, you did a pretty big thing. I think its probably the pinnacle of thiefdom, that is, to steal a castle deed. But you aren't the first person on the server to do that, and while I think you have earned your spot in the Museum, I dont think the castle deed really identifies you more than say a trapped box, which honestly will always be your trademark.

Just plant the castle, or sell it, and enjoy the loot.

See here for information on how the gold will be used.

It is a bit of a crazy idea. I don't know if it will even work, but it is worth a shot.

Build a City of many small homes (in the same location the castle was). The City's theme could be to take from the rich and give to the poor! And using your old guilds abbrev: BSA... but name it "Boy Scouts of America". :)

You should get the gold from the deed, and then talk to Derrick, or whichever GM has an artsy flare.

Pay per tile to have a miniature castle built as an attachment to your vendor house. Something quaint. Something reasonable. A trophy as it were, for a man who needs not the glory and status of a UO castle, but the humility of a mini-castle.
