UOGamers Contests v.2... Riddles and Costumes, and Guides, OH MY!
these have been postponed until further notice, sorry all.
UOGamers: Fashion Show! v.3
That's right, Fashion show is happening again! Except this time, it's a costume contest This is actually a lot more detailed than the last show, so bear with me and try to read this post very well before you ask questions.
Time will be around 6 PM EST on Monday, November 27th
Participants:
Entry fee is 150k (You have plenty of time to earn this!)
This is how this contest will work:
1. You will choose a costume to do. You can be an indian, fisherman, witch, pimp, anything. The trick is to make your outfit reflect this, and your backpack as well. For an indian, you might want some corn or leather in your backpack, a witch might have a spellbook and a cat as a pet (Yes you can use pets in this, just tell me beforehand if that's what you plan to do), a pimp might have stacks of gold and a book with phone numbers. Use your imagination!
2. When you are SURE that you have completed your outfit and backpack well enough, submit it to me... instructions for that are below. Make SURE you put in a description of your character with a few sentences about how you fit the costume and backpack into your goal result.
3. After you submit your email, I will send you one back with further instructions. Note that you do not have to keep your backpack in order like in your screenshot. Just have one prop ready for the day of the show!
DIRECTIONS FOR HOW TO SIGN UP-Must email [email protected] with the subject "Costume Contest Entry"
-Include a screenshot (cropped-PLEASE) of your character's paperdoll, in game character, and backpack contents.
-Type in your character's name, account name (don't give me your password), describe your costume and describe your backpack as well.
-All entries not including the above will be void, no matter what.
The winner will get 50% of all of the gold collected. Second place will get 25%. Third place will get 15%. The remaining gold will get deleted.
The winner will also get one item that they're wearing renamed to whatever they want (within reason.)
SIGN UP DEADLINE - MONDAY, NOVEMBER 13 -- THIS IS WHEN YOUR GOLD WILL BE COLLECTED

If you'd like to watch, email [email protected] with the subject "Watching the Costume Contest" with what row you'd like to sit in. Keep your money on your character and I'll come along to collect it every once in a while (even if you're signed off). Be sure to include what account name and character you'd like to watch with. In place of the money that I collect, I'll give you a "ticket" with the row that you paid for. I'll also have a list of who paid for what as well.

UOGamers: Hybrid Riddles!
For a future event, I'd like to get a lot of riddles submit.
Basically if you submit a riddle, it might be used in the event and you'll have a huge advantage in it because you'll get to pass through the event more quickly. The more quickly you pass thorugh, the most likely you'll win -- and there will be a good prize in it
The riddles I'm looking for shouldn't be too long, and should be hybrid or UO related. They should be within the era of Hybrid (so no samurai stuff). I will post examples of what I want to see if people want to see them.
Possible things to write about:
Dueling pits
Imbus
Tournaments
Custom Housing
Factions
[videos
Prizes:
Everyone who submits 25 GOOD riddles (I will determine quality) will get 100k in game and a book that cannot be written in, hued pink, named "Riddle Helper" unblessed
Email riddles to [email protected]. Use the subject "Riddle Entry number" for the number part, put how many you submit in that email. You can email as many times as you'd like, but PLEASE don't spam my email box. Include in the email your main character's name as long as your account name (don't give me your password). All entries not including the above will be void, no matter what.
Deadline: December 31, 2006
Any questions can be emailed to the same email address with the subject "Hybrid Riddle Question"
