A Faber Fishing Tournament Thursday January 21st to Tuesday January 26th Final Leaderboard certified and Log updated. I will be contacting winning anglers to award prizes. Thank you for your patience. Over 7 million in prizes!!! Anyone can enter tournament - no signup required, no entry fee! (95+ fishing is required to catch a "Big Fish", tis by-catch (loot) of a sea serpent which is caught offshore in deep waters) Post screenshot of catch in this thread. Big Fish datestamp must be between 01/21/2016 to 01/26/2016 Winning fish will be verified ingame so keep fish until end of tourney and don't mount. Mounting a fish will remove the datestamp. Fishing Feats: How to win these prizes will not be announced rather awarded to the angler who accomplishes a pre-determined feat. For example, there might be a prize for the angler who turns in the 100th fish. The angler who does the pre-determined action will win the prize. I will be submitting a list of these pre-determined feats and prizes to Telamon before the Tournament begins to ensure there isn't a perception of a bias in awarding prizes. My advice is to participate and turn in fish no matter how big or small. Previous tournaments will give you an "idea" on what they might be. See links below. Rules: * The tournament will be held Thursday January 21st, 2016 to Tuesday January 26th, 2015. All fish weighed in must have a datestamp on/between those dates. (Note: datestamp is based on UOR server time, US Eastern, -5 UTC) * Prizes will be distributed the following week. * Fish weighed in will be credited to the angler, not who turns. Anyone can submit fish for any angler. Angler must be present to claim winnings. * Use as many fishers as you like. Again, fish is credited to angler marked on fish. (some players are using more than one fisher) * No sign up required! Simply post a screen shot of your catch but keep it for prize reward and... DO NOT MOUNT FISH. Mounting a fish will erase datestamp. Fish will need to be verified ingame to collect your prize. Only fish weight will only be recorded. You keep your catch. * Anglers tied will split the prizes of the two respective places. For example, Anglers tied for 2nd place will split the winnings for 2nd and 3rd place. Notes on Fishing: Double-click on a fishing pole, then click on a body of water. If successful, you will catch a fish. You might catch something more interesting than a fish. Success with this skill also depends on the availability of fish in that specific area. 0-65 - On land you will fish up Magic Fish, and Normal Fish. 80+ - Sea Serpents (No SoS Message), Special Fishing Nets. 90+ - Treasure Maps 100 - Messages in a Bottle (aka MIB) / Waterstained SoS Message 95+ - You can reel in Big Fish which can be used to make Trophies via Taxidermy Kits. You can get to 100% fishing on land, but deep sea fishing gives much faster skill gains. Monsters will never spawn by fishing from land. Many thanks to the generous sponsors and UOR staff who make these Tourneys possible!
