Saturday, September 4th, 2010
Immediately following 2nd and 3rd CW.
Don't miss it!


OBJECTIVE:

Hold the center of Sette Ruins under your Races control for a full 5 Minutes, holding back or destroying ANY invaders.
NO SUMMONS, NO SIEGE KITS, NO MAUs, and NO TOWERS -- NO EXCEPTIONS!!
Those are the only rules.

However you go about maintaining or taking control of the Ruins is up to you.
The 5 minute timer will start once there is only one Race remaining inside the Ruins, and will run until the Race either wins, or is repelled from the center of the Ruins.
If the holding Race is repelled/wiped from the center, the timer will start over for whichever Race assumes control.

The process will continue until one of the three Races maintains control for a full 5 minutes.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them in the Event Discussion thread in the 2.1.6 Forum.

1) Thor/Lizard spawns for 45 Minutes
2) Progressive PB spawns (Weak to Strong, high as your race can go)
3) Double EXP for one hour

Will you choose to help your own Race get Eles, Armors, Weapons and Exp? Or will you choose to help your enemies as well??
The choice is yours!!

As you all know, I have been running a little fan art competition as my last little contribution to EQG before officially retiring my position.

The results will be announced in two parts, firstly, 5 people will be chosen to receive a custom forum title as edited into the first post of the entries thread.
The second will announce the overall winner who will receive a prize fund of RC500,000,000 (CP/Disena/Dalant) and one unsealed relic weapon of their choice (or the applicable prize fund for Noir).

So here goes...

The five entries chosen for special mention by my good friend and colleague are (in no particular order):

Orvine, reapor, Indigo, Flatz and Enzym.XD
Congratulations, you five will receive a custom forum title "Artist of Excellence".

The overall winner, the (applicable) prize fund:

Flatz

Congratulations Flatz, your outstanding work has impressed a professional graphic artist, and is something you should be very very proud of, exceptional work my friend, really well done!


A thread has been posted in the staff section, Flatz, when our Event Manager logs in he should issue you your prize, and I believe Lenin will apply the new custom titles very soon as well.

A special thanks to everyone who participated, there were some really good pieces there.
You have made this last event a really successful and heart warming experience for me.

Thank you all, and may Ariel's light guide you!

Yours in kind - Frankish
