    I plan to conduct this event again.
    • The event will take place on Sunday, June 11th at (roughly) 1 PM EST.
    • The event will take place in a location of my choosing, most likely a dungeon.
    • I will be carrying at least 500,000 gold worth of prizes. At least.
    • If any generous players would like to help out, feel free to contact me and respond here with additional prizes you would like to put up. You don't have to give me the prize to do this. I will simply put a book in my backpack that lets the recipient know that he or she can redeem it from you for the prize.
    • I will match any donated prizes up to an additional 500,000 from me (beyond the 500k I'm already putting up).
    • I'm going to ask staff for a trophy, etc. No promises there though.
    The rules are once again very simple. I will hide. I will take all available means to avoid being found or killed. When I do die, there will be a lot of loot on my body. I will not use recall or gate or otherwise leave the general location. The location will be announced only after I am ready to go! I'll also provide a running commentary in IRC but no clues.

    The ultimate aim is get a critical mass of players in one area outside the guard-zone with no rules, creating all the sort of interactions that happen in those situations. More generally, expect the unexpected.

    FAQ:

    Q: But how do I find you if you are out there hiding?
    A: You got to look. No shortcuts.

    Q: But how can I find you if I am at home BODing?
    A: Please go play a single-player game.

    Q: Will Riyne give me gold too if I find you?
    A: Unlikely.

    Q: I bet you are going to use some tricks and then I won't get the gold.
    A: Yes.

    Q: What if PKs show up? What if I attack you, go gray and someone else pks me? I'm afraid to attack you because I'll get a murder count. What should I do?
    A: Welcome to Ultima Online. It was a game people used to play.

    Donating the Valorite Ancient Treasure Chest (No Trim) from my first AMiB (Ironmanned). I'll let @chumbucket determine how much to match for it, since I've seen varying prices for it.

    Prize so far:
    • 500k total of gold and items from me.
    • At least one trophy from staff.
    • 100k item by Taste.
    • Chest valued at, let's say, 100k by Zaphian.
    • 100k from Zyler.
    I'm going to match 300k from the players, bringing the total prize up to 1.1 million so far.

    Now I'm fearing I gave my donation to one of the fake chums I keep spotting.

    I almost forgot: Jill donated one easter egg and 5k! I'll value that at 6500 gold and match it. That brings the total up 1.16 million.

    Absolutely happy to donate to this event, chum. I really can't overemphasize how cool an event very similar to this was back in the day. I hope I'm back in time to see it, and I definitely wanted to be a part of it.

    Go for the fun, stay for the stories, kids. It's going to be EPIC!
