Contest Nr. 3

*who is who?

This is what we got so far:

Quote:
ringaei
amroakid
arubin
Erlbdnae gkni = King Adelbern - Ascalon
onvdae = Devona - Lakeside County
gtsaoin
Cinepr ikrur = Prince Rurik - Ascalon

Thing in common; all survived the Searing
Will add the other NPC names when I get to them later.

I wont miss this, looks so amazing

Ingame name : Domador De Ovejas

Contest Nr. 1

Wohoo, I finally decided to enter to this contest!!.
The theme is about a hunter, that has built his own armor and weapons manually, with the scales,fur,etc... of the foes he has killed.

The before mentioned hunter, a ''whole body'' photo, and a close view.
]
The hunter wih his torch, and trying to set a tree on fire (for some unknown reason)

The hunter, trying to kill a wolf with his wooden bow, and then finishing him with his mace.

And finally, he in his small refuge, enjoying a nice ale (Hunter's ale, obviously).


I know it isn't really good, but I'm always short on money, so I couldn't buy better armor and stuff, just posted it for the fun!!

Contest Nr. 2


*Best Game Idea:

The organizer describes a hero, without saying it's profession or name (Ex: He has got afro hair-->Koss [Of course this is just an example, it should be harder]) you should give more tips if players don't catch it at first, then, you could try describing some PvE henchmen, for ''increasing the difficulty''. About the prizes for this, you can give weapons of the hero/henchie profession, or just normal prizes, as people aren't really looking for weapons.


Contest Nr. 3

*who is who?

Meh, I just edited this so the now useless locations won't spam too much.

ringaei-->Igraine
amroakid-->Mordakai
arubin-->Burian
Erlbdnae gkni-->King Adelbern
onvdae-->Devona
gtsaoin --> Agostin
Cinepr ikrur-->Prince Rurik


Thing in common: They are all members of the Guild Ascalon's Chosen

I believe we can update our posts as we progress with the contests, as in, I have the answers to Contest #3 but haven't chosen a combo for my character yet. So here we go :P

Time to update, I don't have any witty game ideas, as I've to study so I can't put on my game-thinking cape.

Also: I'm sorry for the wall of text

IGN: Gwynn Zowi

Contest #1:
Best Screenshot of Your Character

Theme: The Festival of Lyss (and er...working for your event armor )
Location: Vabbi

Little lovely Amber wanted to become the Queen of the Masquerade, Alas! she didn't have enough gold to craft herself a fancy costume to attend the important event, so she decided to...Work for it!

Screenshot #1: She finds work!

Screenshot #2

#3:Teaching the Dende kid how to dance!

#4: Meeting Zilo the Drunkard

#5: The Guards Find Her

#6: More Guards!

Here's a full view of her combo:
Amber's Armor Gif

She wanted to thank everybody




Now Amber is sure to attend the ball. She even fooled a citizen into being her date for the event, with promises of Vabbian crafts and mighty weapons. Perhaps she'll even fulfill her dream of becoming a little tea-pot.

Vabbi is one of my favorites places, I could have removed Amber out of the camera view just to show the beautiful place . Her armor combo is one of my favorites as well. I hope being a silly waitress counts as a theme.


Contest #2:
Best Game Idea for the Event

Masked Items game

Give hints to the players so that they can guess which item is being spoken of (food, sweet, drinks etc)

e.g. "Unwrap a gift directly from the Krytan queen or her guards to find it, it will make you go faster, white and orange, it comes straight from Krytan lands to give you a happy rush!" Which item is this?

"Brain over brawn! You can use it as many times as you wish, stature is never a problem when you can prove your worth with pure brain!"

"It's icy and it's white, sometimes it reaches the sky, and comes back to splatter on the ground. This friendly summon is surely to vanish quickly from your sight."

Obviously there's no way to underline hints in-game, but I'm just showing how easy it can be to guess while still making players think (without the use of Wiki even!)

You can use all types of consumable items for this game, like festive items (tonics, party items, etc), bundles, scrolls, presents, summoning stones, food, sweets, among many other things. You could also split the game in sections to avoid it being confusing, like "Sweet Guessing" "Drink Guessing" etc.

The winner could be either the first person to give the correct answer, or a certain PM (PM #5 wins some goodies, so on).

Another idea I had, I know just the first one will count, but I thought I would share it anyway.

Create a mystery story, Guild Wars based or not, during the event, tell the story to all the participants, give the players a certain period of time to message the person hosting the game telling them what happened.
An example is: An ascalonian family left ascalon on "x" day, they traveled through the lands of Old Ascalon, on the fifth day, blah blah blah they reached the Traveler's Vale, where one of their sons was unfortunate enough to meet his demise at the hands of an evil creature who believed in the powers of blah blah blah used cold magic.
a)Who did the family's son succumb to? (Boss Name)(There's only one boss in Traveler's Vale that is an elementalist and uses cold magic)

Why is this a good idea?
It's not as easy as other games.
Why is this such a terrible idea?
Players will have to wiki it, unless they know all the areas in the game very well. It's not all that fun either.

Note that my entry for this contest is just the first idea, so you can completely ignore the second one, or I can remove it.

Edit: Since apparently (if I read it correctly), the first prize to whatever game is chosen for the event will be the Kath Hammers (that's a big big prize in my opinion), I'm adding to my game idea - that would work for the games players added which have X questions and X answers (which would mean multiple prizes - that you could use a point system, pretty much like the one used in the forum contest. The player with the most points would get the big prize (Leg Survivor ). But that requires one or maybe two hosts to write down and count the points.


Contest #3:
NPC Based contest

ringaei - Igraine, Ascalon's Chosen
amroakid - Mordakai, Devona's Father, Ascalon's Chosen
arubin - Burian, Ascalon's Chosen, died with Mordakai in a battle against the Zealots of Shiverpeaks
Erlbdnae gkni - King Adelbern, Leader of Ascalon's Chosen
onvdae - Devona, Ascalon's Chosen
gtsaoin - Agostin, Ascalon's Chosen
Cinepr ikrur - Prince Rurik, Ascalon's Chosen, born in Drascir

They are all from Ascalon, although Igraine now resides in the Realm of Torment, and Devona travels to many towns oferring players her aid as a henchman. They are all from the guild Ascalon's Chosen.
