It might be a good idea to arrange a time and place when you'll be available so that anyone wanting to register can meet up with you and pay the fee.

Thanks, and an excellent point. When I am ingame, I try to stay busy (imagine that....) I will be in the Twin Peak courtyard each evening this week between 2000 - 2100 East Coast USA Time... which is 0100 - 0200 MA Time. This weekend is a WOF weekend. When I am not killing for my country, I am usually hanging out wherever Hurrikane and his crew of judges are... so that would the cave at Limnadian this weekend.

I tried not to... I used this as the basis for my categories (thanks again to Oleg... he keeps popping up, eh?). I wanted 3 categories and not 8 and I wanted to avoid mobs that are either event mobs or unique in the universe. Formidon and TskTsk pack a punch, and are not exactly abundant ingame. Nexnecis as well... the Old Alpha hits for about 50 through plated Ghost. In addition, Nexnecis is not abundant so I wanted to reward the hunter that seeks out these mobs. The Atrox and Longu occur in many places naturally and the youngs - olds are relatively easy to kill. Mermoth in low maturities occur naturally as well and may hit harder, but they are slow moving and should be dead by the time they reach you Should a hunter want to go after the higher maturity of a mob, that is an individual choice. There are several landareas that host high maturities of these mobs, as well as Atrox Stalker / Prowler living near the outpost west of Troy and around the Oil Rig. The chances of globaling might be higher with larger maturities, but it costs more to kill as well. A decent trade off IMO.

I appreciate the comments. If anyone has a strong enough arguement for changing the category of a mob, I will listen.

I like the mob selection,and I think it's a good division. I'm already planning my strategy

I'll try to catch you at Twin.

Just another bump... check it out!

[Rayne Jade]

Another bump and some info:

Folks, we have some sponsorship for this event. I will be announcing our gracious sponsors later today / tomorrow once the final details are worked out. What does this mean? Well, for starters the prize pool is already getting larger. Also, unique mobs will be added to the hunting list. This could be the start of something big... It would be a shame to look back in 10 weeks and say, "Man... I wish I had been a part of that!"

So now is your chance! Sign up now!

Hi Rayne Jade

Nice looking event +Rep

One quick question tho... Is there a Mermoth spawn outside of a LA? Don't recall coming across any anywhere but in the LAs.

Yes indeed!! On Amethera, between the two white land masses, there is a river. In the middle there is a small island. Medium to low mermoth exist there. To the north of this area are large Estophyl, so watch where you land when TP jumping

Thanks for the rep and the comments!

Thanx for the info

I normally hunt Mermoth and Longu anyway so I might as well go in for 10 PED. I'm sure my ATH is due that that week anyway

At CND at the moment tho so might not be able to sign up till the weekend.

Very nice event you cooked up, Rayne. It has aspects and similarities w/ some other events and that's a good thing. Don't have to be completely unique to be good.

I'll see about joining myself. I'll try to catch up to ya this weekend.

You might want to announce locations you can be found at specific times in order to make collecting entry fees a bit easier.

My pleasure! I appreciate your interest. This is a WOF weekend, so when I am not burning up ammo for God and Country, I will most likely be found lurking about the cave near Limnadian trying to get intel on the scores. I plan on advertizing (spamming) a bit at the more popular TPs as well.

Thanks JC! Coming from an event-maker like yourself that means a lot. See above for this weekends plans - I try to spend about an hour in Twin Peaks each evening chatting up this competition. Between 0130 and 0300 MA Time usually.

I try to be forthright and honest... just a word to the wise. The winner is the hunter with the highest cumulative score over the 10 weeks. If you do start late, please note that you will be a tad behind. This can be made up of course... just wanted to ensure that is understood.
