HUGE Writing Contest - Millions of gold, Hundreds of Platinum, a FORTRESS, and TONS More!

Awesome, I figured as much! no problemo

Yeah, I suppose, as long as you give them the opportunity to get the items back and are reasonable about it Just personally it is not something I would do, but hey, everyone is different

I have decided to write a guide with all I know about zoo keeper animal taming and tracking. Definitely going to be some undocumented stuff in there!

I was hoping someone would do something in regards to the zoo keeper animals

This is such a fun idea! Well done, and A+ for creativity (puns intended).

With a bit less than two weeks left, wanted to give this a bump!

There are some categories with a bunch of entries, and some categories with no entries, so someone could clean house and walk away with a LOT of gold and other prizes should they choose to tackle them

I had some questions.

So you don't mean in-game books right?

Can you include pictures etc? Are these like the guides in forums? Or more of a novella.

Heya Mikek!

It is all laid out under the Rules and Submissions section of the main post, if you want to double check those


*When submitting your entry, include the following information:

• Title of the Book
• Author of the Book (this can be you, can be a character of yours, or fictional character within the game)
• Your Forum/IRC names
• the Category being submitted to
• the Date

*Submissions should be sent to me directly through Forum PM.

*Submissions must be turned in to me no later than March 19th, 11:59pm EST.


These will be made into in-game books afterwards, but for the sake of the contest and my sanity, it is far easier for everyone to simply send the writing directly to me in the forum (don't have to arrange in-game meetings, don't have to mess with the sometimes difficult to format in-game books, don't have to deal with technical issues associated with copy and pasting into in-game books, etc). I will take care of all that stuff myself afterwards Contestants just need to pick a category, write, and submit to me via forum PM. What contestants write about and how they write it is up to them.

How are you gonna fit them all in in-game books!

Also I can't read.

Each in-game book has 40 pages, and if a story requires more than that, it becomes a multi-volume text.

The Story of Bob Vol. 1
The Story of Bob Vol. 2
etc

Oh your in for a treat in a few days, just verifying did you get my first submission?

Yes sir, I certainly did!

BUMP! - Only one week remaining for submissions! There are still a ton of rewards up for grabs, some categories have no submissions at all which could be ripe for the plucking

The more neglected categories:

IRC/Forums
Factions
Platinum Rewards
Tailoring
Tinkering
Inscription
Roguish Behavior
Holiday Events
BoDs

There are, so far, only 3 people qualifying for the Fortress as well!

Don't miss out on this opportunity!

Coming up on the last few days - if you have been thinking of submitting some entries, now is the time

The following categories are still a bit light on entries (potentially making winning the top prize fairly easy!)

Factions
Tailoring
Inscription
Roguish Behavior
Holiday Events
BoDs

Of course, entries into any and all categories are still welcome, just those ones listed above are potentially low-hanging fruit ready to be plucked

.

You know all the juiciest guides are going to drop on the final day.

3 days left!

If you were thinking about entering something but have not yet done so, now is the time

Thank you!

Wow I am in idiot! If I happened to write a tamer guide would it apply to any of the categories for this contest? I could have sworn there was a tamer category but I don't see it anymore.

I rejoice and agree in your claim of being an idiot, alas, I must plead guilty of idiocy as well since I made a fishing guide; but there never was such a category! I must've just presumed there were such a category due to the large amount of other skill guides!

Yeeup, its all good though. I will still post it to the forums in all its glory
