Talk:Events/Pharaoh's Garden Game Event 6

Official Notes

Official Counts

We use the registration baskets as our list to give out participation prizes.

We will have to track the locations of the bonfires in case they get over built by a larger one.

We can use the “built by” name to help track the bonfires and what category it is in.

We have to note players building in multiple categories, if they are the ones making the initial bonfire, as their names could be on more than 1 bonfire. A player could technically have 3 bonfires in their name but each entered into a separate category.

Example of multiple ownership to watch for:

Solo Bonfire Built by Player A Player A Team Bonfire Built by Player A Player A + Player B Guild Bonfire Built by Player A Player A (as an Elder in the Guild)

Largest bonfires in multiples of 100 win. Odd lot amounts are rounded down. Ex 199 = 100.

Basket Building Location Needs

Sculpture Event had 15 entries and 39 voters.

Expect @30 participants for this event because of Solo, Team and Guild cross registration.

The area where the baskets should be built needs to accommodate this and remain visible to all players and officials.

Also, some areas cannot be built on due to landscaping items, such as the area directly next to the piers, which is a roadway item.

Bonfire Building Location Needs

Bonfires can get really big. So the location for them may need some consideration.

Small bonfires of 500 wood could easily be lost by the overlap foot print of a 50,000 wood bonfire.

Special care and perhaps some Nik pushing might be needed to keep the bonfires separate and visible.

Prize Considerations

We have 3 categories of prizes: Solo, Team and Guild

There are separate participation prizes for Solo and Team but not Guild.

I would like Top 3 and Top 5 to avoid First-Place-itis.

This is very much a PVP type event. The prizes have to be worth much more than the wood being offered up. Some guilds and players have enormous supplies of wood. To get them to do this the prizes have to be extra special. We want players to be willing to dump 100,000 wood or more for them.

I would like to suggest a special “In The Middle of the Event” announcement that any player, team or guild building 1,000,000 wood bonfire would get something UTRA AWESOME.

Participation Awards for Solo 250 Charcoal

Participation Awards for Team 500 Charcoal

Awards Party Considerations

I think we should have a big party at the Flight Deck for this event.

We should combine the bonfires into gi-normous ones and set them on fire at the Flight Deck.

Nik can go in stealth mode to light them up.

Wine and Hookahs of course. Fireworks if we want them. We still have some in the Party Pantry.
