Code: Select all
Hello all!
Much belated, I have finally (with generous help from the Arch of Events,
Stern himself) gotten around to finalizing the rewards for the first and
only Necro-Thanksgiving Event from way back in 2013.
This event used the existing content of the realms as unfathomed material for
potential quest achievement. We wizards had no real idea how much could be
discovered or how quickly it would unfold. All races from all domains were
of interest, and beyond that, the largest and smallest examples of each race
in each domain could be used to score points for individual and overall
first find achievements.
A total of 74 players participated in the event, with the number of unique
races found by individual competitors ranging from only one, all the way
up to 457! Two categories of rewards were handed out, with the top three
competitors in each field being awarded titles and experience here at the end
of the event.
Top finalists for "Most Prolific Procurement Efforts" (the players who found
the most unique individual race-names):
1. Hrolg (457 unique races) "Final Authority of Genesis Zoology"
2. Morrison (456 unique races) "Learned Doctor of Genesis Zoology"
3. Budwise (438 unique races) "Educated Scholar of Genesis Zoology"
Top finalists for "First-finds" (the players who were the first to find
things in each domain either for unique race, or high/low stats for a
given race):
1. Zar (128 first-finds) "Swiftest of All Scalpel-Wielders"
2. Arcon ( 92 first-finds) "Quicksilver Scalpel-Wielder"
3. Starla ( 86 first-finds) "Speedy Scalpel-Wielder"
An extra honorable-mention goes to Budwise and Morrison, both of whom
ranked in the top 5 of each category.
Unlike past events, there will be no quest experience handed out for these
top finalists. This is due to the fact that the event itself handed out
plentiful amounts of quest experience for first-find accomplishments. Rather,
these finalists will receive their titles, which they will have to enjoy
for the next year's time, and modest rewards in general experience.
All finalists can claim their rewards in the AoE office beneath the Tower
of Realms in Sparkle.
We hope you enjoyed this event!
Regards,
Gorboth, on behalf of the AoE Team
I was building on that
