Week Weapons Modification Contest (20 - 29th)

Week Weapons Challenge



We have another week challenge this weekend. This might be the last one of the season to help you guys get things caught up. So if you have job threads, previous prizes to collect (some of you will lose yours if you don't find them in the thread before the end of the season), or replies to catch up on... go for it.

This will be a pure word-count contest. I will award via word count only, so you may write whatever you want IC and it will count. I will tell you, however, that you'll need at least 2.5K for base prizes and 5K for the standard prizes. The really big prizes will require even more words. So plan on trying to write a ton of i you can.

The theme of the prizes will be weapons modifications and accents. If you write enough words, you will be able to get some incredible things placed on either a weapon you already own or one you acquire for the prizes. Weapons modifications do stack. There will be trade-in options for alternative prizes if you want an opportunity for coin or more charms etc.

So sign up below. The contest will run from the posting of this announcement until 10pm PST on the west coast of the US on the 29th which is next Sunday. You will not have to collect weapons modifications in-game, they can just develop on your weapon however you want them to - gifted through prayer, player, or divine mystery.

Have fun!

Weekend Weapons Modification Contest (20,21,22,23)

Postby Cleon on May 20th, 2022, 2:23 pm

Count me in! For Cleon I've got some pretty fun plans for this weekend. For the most part, since I have already done his job threads, I will be really hammering into exploring his curse before this season wraps up and it goes away. I really want to get into how all of this has affected him to his core and build up his relationships with other Sykans at the same time. More than a few of these threads will involve Faye and some of my other characters as well to join in on the fun.

Happy writing everyone!

Throwing my hat in the ring as well. I've got quite a few things I'd like to accomplish with DV before the season runs out, and this is an excellent challenge opportunity to do so.

For him, I will be focusing first on getting him acquainted with the people around Syka so he knows how to recognize outsiders when on patrol. To do this I will be doing a series of structured solos where DV gets help getting acquainted with where everyone is along with giving him the opportunity to introduce himself around Syka and make his face known.

Secondly, I will be completing his job threads and finding his magical items before the turn of the new season, and have a bit of fun with them while I'm at it.

Good luck on your threads everyone! If you need someone to bounce ideas off of or just shoot the shit, feel free to send me a pm.

Extension Until Sun Night 5/29



By popular request to help people get job threads and replies done, I'm going to extend this contest until next Sunday night. There is a higher word count in play, so that means people might need more time. Hopefully, this will allow those people struggling to hit the 4.=)

Remember, you need to post your total word count, but you'll also need to post where those word counts came from (using links) and what those tallies were individually for replies, solos, jobs, etc.

Thanks!

Goss
