"Run For Your Life" Race

This Will be the first ever "run for your life!"

The idea is that anyone who wants to join creates a new character on silan and then sends them up to Zora.

It's then a race from Zora to Thesos by any route possible.

There are only a few rules:
1: You must only be wearing what you started with on Silan, refugee gear. This is for fun so DONT cheat by grabbing more gear or lvls. You should be lvl 1 in your refuge clothing.

2: NO trading with any other player! That includes flowers.

3: Your name should include your main characters name. Example: Racerkeiko


Rules are subject to change, so keep an eye out.
The start line is Zora stables and the finish line is Thesos stables (Ill see if i can get the Soul to be refs in this one... )

Everyone racing should try to team up together then also with one of the refs to simply give a running comentry in Kami chat Wink

The Prizes:

max spd/dmg living 1h spear kindly donated

Baffos will donate 50 stacks of ql 200, which will try to be divided up equally among the racers

Baffos will give the winner an extra 3 stacks of 250 ql cats

The guild of the winner will receive a max pf/parry 220 ql ha

Faa offers 2 LAs supreme 20+ PF 2 dodge in any q or civilisation required

5 Mill in dappers to the winner

And the glory of being the world's fastest/bravest/most stupid lvl 1 homin ever!


HUGE thanks to people who donated prizes and all the best of luck to everyone!

If anyone would like to donate any more prizes say so here.

Details:


Sat 23rd June
Meet at Cheng the Strong on silan ready to port to zora
GMT 19.00 BST 20.00


If you would like to volunteer to help watch the racers, please say so here as well.

This event is curtosy of The Soul, Allort, and the Kami Faction. I'm just the messenger.

Awesome, I love lowbie events!
I'll definately try to Racerrueti there if I get some free time on Saturday.

Edit: if/when we die, do we start from last/closest respawn point? So it would make sense looking into some PR portals on the way.

might be a good idea to pick up some rez points along the way in case of death or dismemberment. ;) :D

Up date on the prizes :) Poor baffos did not expect so many people attending (many more signed up in game to me and on kami forums) so the orrigional offer of cats to everyone who races has to be taken back ;) In its place he is going to kindly donate 50 stacks of Q200 and i will get a math book out on the day and using some amazing complicated tables and equations and log scales... wil give up, go get a calculator and work how much each racer gets in equal share ;)

Also if anyone would really like to get involved but has used up all three toon slots and doesnt want to delete one of them we could always use a hand helping out by been refs etc. Refs should be giving some live action feedback into Uni if we cna get away with it or faction chats but as it stands i think we have more then a few teams worth of runners so definatly need people to keep an eye on them ;)
