Bob's BoxBrief description:
Bob's box is a puzzle box to solve and you are in the puzzle. This is both a psychological and sociological test.
Sign-ups:
To enter into Bob's Box please page staff on your character that you wish to be entered into the box 30 minutes before the start time. Only one entry per person is allowed. There will be a maximum limit of contestants chosen to enter the box online at the following times:
· 2 PM eastern time, Saturday 4th August
· 2 PM eastern time, Sunday 5th August
These times may be subject to change with other events replacing them as the box progresses depending on progress of the contestants or popularity.
What happens next:
On the allocated times if you are chosen and online you will be asked to remove all weapons, armor, items and belongings to wear nothing but a robe. Then you will be pulled into the screening room with the other contestants ready for entry into the box. It is essential that you make sure all items are removed and that includes pets and mounts.
Time limit:
Once contestants first enter the box the contestants will have a time limit of 2 hours to solve it. After 2 hours pass contestants will be removed from the box.
Leaving early/quitting: If you should wish to leave early or quit the box there is a waiting room you will be able to page staff from to be removed.
That is all. I will leave the rest upon your arrival. I hope to see you there and good luck.
Demise Staff.
