May I Fish IV You? - A Fishing Tournament

This event was very very nice and the price I got is a very nice contribution to someone as new as I am.

Thanks Zyler for a nice event.

Please go ahead and DQ Butter Cups 199 entry. He decided to jump off the boat before the weigh in. I guess part of the competition is keeping track of all these fish & not leaving them on a boat.

Congratulations to the winners & god bless.

I'll still donate 2m + to the town of PAWs

Leaderboard update

The 1st place 199 stoner was self-DQd (disqualified) by SteelyDan allowing River Rat and a giant fish to assume 5th place in the biggest category.
I need to verify the two 184 stoners to finalize Leaderboard.

@Evil Dead & @k1w1uk please contact me to verify fish or lock down catch and send me coordinates.

Thanks

What I spent my 100k lottery winnings on.

Congratulations @Majinko

You are I are now officially the best fishers on the server!!!!

It looks good, @PaperSquirrels

Since when do items decay on boats? Was it always like that?

Zyler I am on now/will be on all evening. Holla atcha boi! IRC- EvilDead

Yes
Decay on boat deck due to the elements but not in hatch where items are protected

Foolish mistake. All my years of fishing I never pull anything larger than 180.

Some of my winnings were spent on my 2 fish that placed on the leaderboards.

Great Saint Zyler ( Patron saint of all UOR fishermen and Women), whenever you feel free to examine my 184 stone fish it can be found locked down on the tower steps at UOAM co-ords 118o 28'N 11o27'W just south of the flower grove.

now everyone knows where you live...

No, they know where my son lives just where we fish out of

now everyone knows where your son lives and where you fish out from....

Got it
Thanks

I work nights so my playtimes are early aftermoons (1-4pm Eastern) and early early mornings (230-430am Eastern). Please PM me in IRC and I'll meet up with you if available. All winners will receive their prizes, it just may take a few days or more until we can meet up. I should be off next weekend so we can meet then if we miss each other over the following week. Thanks for your patience.

I will look for you tonight.

Zyler my fish should still be locked down at my casino I should be around Monday in game

If anyone is interested in such things, here is everything I fished up during the tournament. I'll record it here before I delete the .txt document.

2440 horned hides
13442 gold
18 big fish
72 special fishing nets
2 colored special fishing nets: 500, 1170
84 level 1 tmaps
2 level 2 tmaps
68 MIBs
1 red AMIB
2 blue AMIBs
2 purple AMIBs
3 green AMIBs

(don't ask, I'm not selling anything at this point)

I wasn't keeping time on how long I was fishing with 3 fishers, but I always got between 15 and 20 serps fished up per hour so averaging that out over the amount of hides I have I am estimating 14 hours of fishing total during the week. If anyone wants to figure out the gold per hour on those stats go for it!
