1. What is the prize?
It'll be a Drago's Flatbow, Rago's Flame Staff, The Shadestone, Morgriff's Scepter, Villnar's Claw & Bronh's Holy Rod altogether.

2. What are the requirements?
A member of this forum, for verification's sake to post a screenshot, after receiving the prize.

3. How do we play the contest?
It'll be in the International District. Just find my character anywhere in Tyria among the towns and outposts. To win, you'll have to be the first person stand in front of me, then say "Booya!". Thats all. Will capture screenie too. I will release my character's name a few minutes before the contests starts.

4. When will it begin?
Tommorow, 28th March, 9PM GMT. Contest will last for an hour. More than enough time to search through every town.

Unless you're a REALLY slow loader this would be so easy. Since its only ID... just go into the town, type your game name into the party box, if it accepts... then we know you're there. Its more a matter of who gets the luckiest and who is the fastest loader.

Also, many towns/outposts have only 1 max 2 int districts. And you can write a macro (nothing to do with bots, etc) to do the job for you ^^. Fast as lightning.

Edit:
Thats the point. Easy. I'll just give the first name away though, so, :P. And you still have say "Booya!" in front of the character. Aha.

You'll have to set to offline because then we will be able to tell what character you are playing as when we put you in our friend's list. But if you are offline we won't even know if it's going on.

Lol, I *WAS* going to search there. But it seemed too obvious. Thought it would be like a desert outpost or something...

lol I did this with some guildies in the past... I found nice places to hide... Like Ice caves... lol No one ever seems to go there lol so they dont have the bip on thier map. but allas Its stilla little fun think to do with your buddies in game... lol Still waiting for that snow ball fight option in guild halls. lol

BTW another popular thing in our prime was custom quests... The guild leader would post a custom quest on the guilds webpage, and the first person to complete the task would get a reward of some kind... It was often quite challenging stuff like Getting a SS with at least 3 dead dragons on the ground, or finding a rare item from a rare materials crafter in the wild...

Or finding a lost town and NPC in the wild and show a Screenshot... that kind of thing...
