Pay attention now, it's complicated :)

Scavenger Hunt

So here's how it will work. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to collect 8 items (below) in as great a quantity as possible. They're all junk, and not all items drop any more. Consider it a reward for being a packrat. :)

Points: You will get points based on the items you collect. The points are as follows: If you have the most of a certain item on a server, you will get 5 pts. Second most will get 3 pts. Third most will get 1 pt. Theoretically, the highest score a player can get is 40 pts (having the most of every item for your server).

Tie Breaker: I will pick a number from 1 to 100,000. In the event of a tie, the closest guess to that number will win the tie. However, you must guess in adena. (More on that later).
If you tie with other players for "the most", the first person recorded by a reporter will get 5 pts. The second will get 3, etc. (You can't just pass the 1000 Scroll of Destroy Armor around your pledge to make a 30-way tie for 5 pts :-P)

Time: You have one week. On January 9, the scoring will occur.

Scoring: The way to get counted is to take all of your scavenger hunt items to one of the LC Reps. They will be available for scoring at various times in various towns on January 9. The schedule and names of who is an actual LC rep will be posted on January 8. You will show your items to an LC rep in a trade window (items dropped on the ground won't count), and they will take a few moments to make a note of the quantities of every item and will record it. They will not keep it. Any funny business and you will be disqualified from this and every future LC contest.

If you didn't realize it by now, you will have to be able to carry your scavenger hunt findings. Also, just being able to carry the most does not mean you are more likely to win. Plan wisely. Remember, you also do not have to have all of the 8 items. Showing us thousands of scroll of destroy armor and nothing else will probably guarantee you 5 points :)

To make your tie-breaker guess, make your guess in Adena, that is, if you guess 20, put 20 adena in your trade window. Once again, no LC rep will ever hit OK to the trade.

Items: Floating Eye Meat, Blinding Potion aka Opaque Potion, Scroll of Destroy Armor, Elemental Stones, Spirit Gems, Hard Leather, Silver Serpent Scales, Old Scroll.

Eligibility: You must have an active Lineage account. I suppose just meeting us means that you have an active Lineage account, but hopefully this prevents confusion.

Prizes: The top 3 scores of every server will be posted on LC in a news post. First place on every server will get a screenshot of them too. Also, if you have a registered LC account (why don't you?) your title will be different on your posts (just a little extra something :) And, the grand prize, the first place winners on the two servers with the most participants will get a free month of Lineage!

Please post questions and concerns you have to this thread and I'll answer them and possibly update this post. Good luck and have fun!
