The Yew Merchant Center Scavenger Hunt - 5/22
Posted: Tue May 18, 2010 2:23 pm
In celebration of the Yew Merchant Center reaching 10,000 customers, I will be holding a scavenger hunt on Saturday, May 22nd in order to pay back the community. There will be ten prizes throughout the day, roughly one hour apart, assuming the previous one had been found.
Starting at 9am EST (my child allowing it), I will lock down a book on my shop floor that will have the clue for the first prize. I'll also be posting the clues in this thread as well, but if you want a slight head start, the book in the shop will be first. I'll also try to post a link in IRC as new clues come up.
Most of the prizes are in guard zone, so this is newbie friendly. None of the prizes are in dungeons. The prizes will be in containers, and in the container will be a book telling you what you've won (as well as a few ore to keep things from decaying). The book will also have a verification code, so that will be needed in order to claim your prize, and help keep people from saying they found it in order to reduce competition. To collect the prize, either see me in game, or send me a PM and we'll arrange a meeting. If you do find one or more prizes, please keep the book. You may find a use for it later.
So, in summary:
- The event starts at 9am EST on Saturday, May 22nd, when I lock a book down in my shop (location found in my signature). I will also post the clue here, and a link in IRC.
- Figure out the clue, find the location. There will be a container with a book in it. The book will tell you your prize, as well as a confirmation code.
- When you find a prize, please post in this thread, or PM me here or IRC, with the confirmation number. That way, I know the prize claim is legit.
- We'll meet up, and I'll give you your prize. I will then repeat the process with the next clue, at either the next full hour or once the previous prize is found, whichever comes last.
- If you find a prize, I recommend you hold onto the book.
I hope this proves to be fun for everyone, and thanks again for the success that the Yew Merchant Center has found.
