Pharaoh's Garden Game Event 6: Burning SETESH
Welcome to Pharaoh's Garden Game Event 6.
Pharaoh's Garden is a gift from Pharaoh to the players of Tale 6. The Garden is designed to be a venue for airship games, foot races and other player run events. The Garden is intended to be a permanent feature for future tales.
This event will be an wood gathering event with a limited time frame.
Burning SETESH: 2 hours
SCHU has boasted of the greatness of Egypt's people by their creation of sculptures using clinker and their growing of beautiful orchids.
SETESH does not believe this to be a worthy challenge and seeks to prove that the challenges he can put forth are better ones.
SETESH believes that challenges that do not require sacrifice are unworthy of the gods. To this end, SETESH has created the Burning SETESH challenge: to create bonfires as offerings to the greatness of SETESH.
Players will have 2 hours to bring wood and build bonfires in Pharaoh's Garden as an offering to the god SETESH. The largest bonfires will win prizes.
Bonfires must be a minimum of 500 wood. Additions to a bonfire must be made in multiples of 100 wood. There is no upper limit.
NOTE 1: All wood and bonfires become the property of SETESH at the end of the event. SETESH will take them away from the mortal world.
Details
There are 2 categories: Solo and Guild.
To register a basket must be built in Pharaoh's Garden Registration Area near the Blue Banner. There will be a registration corral for solo entries and another for guild entries. Please place your baskets in the appropriate corral.
Solo players will register by placing a personal chit in their basket.
Guilds will register by having an Elder in the Guild place a chit in a basket and notifying the Aero Club Officials that they are registering their guild AT THE START of the event.
Players may enter both categories but each entry must have its own bonfire.
- Ex: A player entering both categories would have two separate bonfires.
One designated as solo entry, the other as guild entry.
Note: Baskets require 28 dried flax + 8 boards and hold 1,000 bulk.
To contribute to a player's score, the bonfire must be a minimum of 500 wood and increases in size must be in units of 100. eg 100, 200, 500. Odd lot amounts will not count.
Everyone will start at the same time.
Everyone will have 2 hours to build their baskets, gather wood and build bonfires in the park.
To finalize their entry players must transfer ownership to SETESH. Bonfire ownership maybe transferred at any time during the event. All transfers are final.
There is no restriction on travel to and from the park for this event. You may spouse warp, way point, or use wings of horus to bring wood to the park. The chariot is open both ways from South Egypt to Memphis.
