ExternalError's Scavenger Hunt

Send all items to ExternalError on recursion to recieve the prize money.

RSI's under level 30, only.


This gang will certainly leave a ringing in your ears, you will definatley need some new running shoes to get away from the noise.

This gang carry a sign of the devil on their person, but i hear they like to party, maybe one of their toys will help you.

Watch out you may recieve a close shave from this Gang but a trusty revolver may help.

This Gang deals in Death but if you have a talk with BJ he may just help you out.

An animal skin is a good thing to keep you warm.

This item may just keep you from loosing your head.

You may need to rob a few ex prison gaurds for this one, who ever said crime doesnt pay.

These Glasses react to the dark and light so are very useful for all occastion.

Raise the Jolly Roger, it might be handy to have this item to prevent rope burns.

These followers of neo sometimes wear a funny coat in remembrance of him.

This coat named after a blackbird can be very useful

Oh, that's just DeNiro stomping someone. I took his last name for my character so now I feel a connection to him.

I'm sorry time did not allow me to join this.  You have a great premise, and great people.   I wish I had been able to attend; I was looking to discussing the fine art of oneiromancy with the MegaCity mavens, and had a couple of dreams of my own to offer.

Help Thy Neighbor Day 3 - Community Choice

The Afterparty!

    

I would like to thank Eleutherophobia and Catzi from Catzi Radio for hosting and helping run the celebration, the Gunslinger Tournament (pilot test) and best dressed contest. You truly made the party enjoyable and fun for all!


Gunslinger Tournament Results

Round 1 - Quarterfinals

PoyntBlanc defeats Spartan7
Trin303 defeats ExternalError
Vesuveus defeats CaineUei (spell?)
GreyMountain defeats Variel

Round 2 - Semifinals

Trin303 defeats PoyntBlanc
GreyMountain defeats Vesuveus

Championship Round

Trin303 defeats GreyMountain - Trin303 receives $i20,000,000, GreyMountain receives $i5,000,000

Notes: I would like to thank all contestants for participating in the Gunslinger tournament. Though the first round was not run according to the above stated rules, the semifinal round and final round were re-explained to more closely follow the above stated rules.

It was intended to use free fire similarly to interlock in terms of attacks being done in "rolls". If both fighters fire one shot, that is one "roll". If one fighter lands a hit, regardless of damage, AND the other fighter misses, the round is over. The fighter to land a shot has won that round.

If the first "roll" is a draw, both fighters land a hit or both fighters miss, then fighters may fire another "roll" until one fighter has landed AND the other has missed. The fighter that lands the shot wins the round.

This way, players can use a free-fire generic attack or a free-fire special attack. The faster attack may land first, but the other fighter still has a chance to land the first shot causing a draw in the first "roll". To prevent confusion, I would declare the fighter to land 2 consecutive shots the automatic winner, taking in cast time for a special attack.

My intention was to use System Chat to moderate the shots landed. My oversight was that System chat only displays PvP combat, not duels.

In the future for a similar tournament, I would implement the above notes as guidlelines as well as move the tourament to Datamine where system chat could moderate.

This style of tournament has the potential to be very fair for non-50's and very short in duration if properly organized.

Thank you for the kind words, Sugaree. Anytime you would like a dream interpreted, you can always PM me or just post the dream here.
