Cygnus Anniversery Event Rules and Rewards
Posted: Wed Oct 04, 2017 1:30 pm
Starting Sunday (most likely evening, central US time) I will begin celebrating my 10th Anniversary here by holding an event that will last until my rewards run out, which should take several days. My goal is to go for several hours each time I log on. I also plan to try and cover as many time zones as I possibly can so everyone has a chance to participate at some point. As my previous post shows, I will have several different types of contest to test your knowledge. Some will be easy, others quite hard, and of course some in the goldilocks zone, just right. I will do my best to match the rewards to the level of the test. All but 2 of the tests will be UO related and out of those, 90% or so will be Excelsior specific. I will open another thread on the day of the event that will be listing the questions and riddles. They will not be on this one or the previous one.
RULES: (this is important, so pay attention)
Your questions will come in 1 of 2 ways: Over world chat or posted on the forums. Your riddles will always be on the forums, so have the forum open at all times. Answers MUST be sent via PM, no other way. Do not reply to the forum post or speak out in World Chat. I will take the first correct PM as the winner. If anyone continually violates this rule, I will shut down the event until the offender logs out.
Do not ask for another reward other than the one offered. However, you are free to donate it back as others have done before.
That is it for the rules other than to have fun with it.
