I'd eat a klondike bar.

Also I'd write <3 Wise on my titty and send it to him.

Blackfoot has pledged an as yet unknown piece of Trammel to the prize. He claims that it will be very "Trammelesque," whatever he decides on!

I will make you a parody animation. Maybe how you were once a drifter down on his luck with an addiction to lesser red pots running around the gutters of brit with only a pack horse named "You". IE (You R my Only Fren')
Where you keep trying to sneak a few extra pots from the beast's pack being you felt guilty about your addiction...and time again only pulling out empties.

Whatever...you can ellaborate the storyline if you like. This can be just a paid service too and we can negotiate.
Could make it funny like call it "The Adventures of Bucky or The Adventure of Matty and Bucky" Where your companion is Matron DeStripper who is like a Barbie and changes her outfit with Whatever she happens to be doing at the time Like Matron DeHomemaker for example when she takes you to her place after you steal ash from the packs of those who persecute her for scamming them out of lap dances lol

Okay that was more funny then anything...like I said you could get with me on what you want. It doesn't have to be part of this event because it will take some time at least.

Here is an example of an earlier animation I did. It once lip synched to Jesus of surburbia but it was copyrighted

The entries are listed below. Alas, I must say I am disappointed. Some of them were nice. None were spectacular. The very idea of the event, I guess, was to test out how creative the shard might get if properly motivated. Perhaps gold is worth so little that a million gold is hardly motivation for much of the shard? More likely, I think the answer is one provided to me well before the contest ended: Almost everyone who is creative on this shard is a member of [cA].

Hence, I am rethinking how to approach this, and after talking to various people, I am going with the following idea: I will henceforth, as long as I play, hold a monthly [cA]-only contest. The goal of each month will vary, but at the end of the month I will declare one entrant the rejiggered chumbucket Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Applied Bardery.

I know I am sounding like a downer, but think of it this way: Now your local bard will have even more reason to practice the bardic arts on your gold and possessions. That means more real challenges for you to face rather the so-called AI of 1998 or the so-called AI of your local OMGLEETPVPer. Plus, you'll get the grim satisfaction of bearing witness to the havoc we wreak on others in the official [cA] public forum.

In the meantime, I will offer a token prize of 25,000 gold to all of the entrants for this contest. Contact me in IRC or the forums to claim your gold. Those who donated gold to the prize may also contact me so that I might return the gold they put up.

I wanted to paint some colorful imagery in people's heads more then participate in this event. Really I been working and macroing and doing not much else.

Have to admit though...the animated chumbucket cartoon would be hillarious

Replace creativity with "griefing", because really thats what you mean. So you have proven the point of not everyone on the shard has a gold lust where they would think of outlandish things to do to screw other players over.

Although I am glad I made a cameo with my awesome vendor gold collecting skills. Playing while intoxicated? Check. Gating to vendor from west brit? Check. Not revealing or checking if anyone followed me? Check. Dropping gold on the ground? Check. Guard whacking myself in town as last ditch effort to receive said gold, and then not getting it? Check. Owned in many senses of the word by Irish.
