Title: Scavenger Hunt Signups
Post by: Areya on April 14, 2008, 11:59:30 PM
Signups for teams for the upcoming Scavenger Hunt are now open!  Teams will consist of three or four people.  The leader is required to be a member of Lucky but the others can be other people if you so desire.

Hunt Details
When the Scavenger Hunt starts, I will post a list featuring eight hints.  Using these hints, scour Vana'diel to find the corresponding items and trade them to me.  Upon completion of this first set of Easy level hints, I will give you the URL to a new list of eight.  Upon completion of those Moderate level hints, there will be another URL for the Hard level.

The first team to finish the Hard level of hints will receive the First Prize.  Every team that successfully completes all the lists gets a prize as well!

To register your team simply reply to this topic listing the members!

Addendum
Most of the items involved are fairly cheap..  That doesn't mean they're always easy to find though.  Also don't assume the Hard List items are hard to find, it simply means the clue is difficult!

The reason for spliting up into teams is to help cut down the cost to play.  It should also be noted that you get to keep the items, so you can sell them back if you had to purchase them off of the AH.

Somehow I doubt the prizes are gonna be that lavish, since I have to buy multiple of them.

We all know people won't do jack squat unless they get rewarded...

Maybe it was so interesting that it crashed Seran out of sheer awesomeness and caused his hard drive to become corrupt. That'd be some overwhelming awesomeness...

I shouldn't have joked about it, I feel bad for Selan... my old compy crashed a while ago and took a lot of stuff with it that I hadn't backed up yet...  :'(

/comfort Selan

Ketsuki, that would be a lot of awesome, if it broke computers!

Oh, this sounds like so much fun! I wish I could join briefly just to do this =p (Of course, I also wish they had a $1.00 per month Linkshell Chat function, so I could just log on to talk to you all every once in a while).

I wholeheartedly agree!

I'm glad someone's showing enthusiasm..   since no one has signed up teams for it!   ??? >:(

I'll use this post to also give a sample to give you an idea of how it goes.

Clue: "Wind-sensitive portion of Superman's wardrobe."
Answer: Red Cape (or Cape..  that's one reason I rejected this particular one)

I'm essentially broke, but consider this a sign-up!

That's the idea behind the teams, you can leech off a richer person!  (I wouldn't expect you to spend more than 10k on this...)

Um, no date set in stone yet.  I'm essentially ready except I have to post the lists online and finish collecting the prizes.  Just need the teams.

I guess if you really wanted you could split into pairs or something..

Never mind about this event.  There's just not enough interest.
