Hide and Seek and Kill - Part 2

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.

kewl!

Hellsss yesss

I have some easter eggs and 5k you can weigh your pack down with.

Lol. Your Q and A is great.

I'm gonna have to miss this unfortunately but I highly recommend doing this! The last one was very fun and chaotic, death and destruction everywhere!

I too shall donate prizes towards this NOA sanctioned event . .. I've heard thiey go for bout 90k to 100k. Put me in your book for prize redemption!!!

I will miss this one but will pray to Belok for a Part 3.

It would be great if the orcs showed up just to kill greedy humies!

Having seen chum run a similar event in another world, I can promise this will be epic. What is it the kids say nowadays?

HYPE TRAIN!

What! The orcs show up to hunt down the annoying chumbucket who one time too many have disturbed their peace!

"Lizzen uup urks! Nomber one targit choombucket eez lost in dungeon, now ez da time to strike!"

It would be great if orcs showed up to kill Swedes!

ack! Ogtuuk Klerg! clumprockeet iz eem!

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.

*donates 100k*

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.

A couple more donation:

* Cullinarn - 25k
* Scuba - 10 plat

With my matching gold, the current pool is valued at 1.41 million gold! If anyone wants to throw in another 45k, we'll hit 1.5 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!
