What is it?
A new event, similar to the Battleship Board Game, except this time it's in a cabbage patch!

Date
Wednesday 12th November

Time
11 am PST
1 pm Central
2 pm EST
7 pm GMT
5 am Australian EST

Meeting place
Draynor Bank
World 27

What to bring?
Light Clothes (Spottier Cape, Boots of Lightness etc)

Explanation:

Everyone playing the game should line up on the eastern wall of the cabbage patch. You should make sure to rotate your minimap so that south is facing directly upwards. This is crucial if you want to get the coordinates right.
Rotate it like so:

Then we begin the game:
How it works goes like this. Study the picture below of my minimap, I have written on the coordinates for the rows/columns of cabbages.
I will call out a coordinate and the first person to pick up the cabbage on that coordinate wins 1 point.

The first person to 10 points wins!

I will explain further (if you do not understand, at the event)

I hope to see you all there!


HAI! omghash.gif.png
So I eventually got some people to come to the event, be it a bad attendance..
So we massed at Draynor Bank, World 27.

Attendance:

We then set off for the cabbage patch, where I explained the rules to those noobs who hadn't read the information from the event topic above angryhahs.gif.png

The contestants lining up for the first coordinate:

Mid-game:

So we proceeded to do more and more coordinates, with joe rapidly in the lead with 7 points.

Then i started to get crafty hash.png
I played some tricks on them! tongue.gif

Like one game I ran and hid somewhere, so they couldn't find me to show that they had picked the cabbage.
And one time I logged out biggrin.gif, logged in and saw who could trade me first Lal laugh.gif
One time I ran ran ran over stiles, through gates (which I closed behind me) and then double backed on myself, they couldn't get me!! cool.gif

user posted image

So Joe had 8 points and second (at that time) was Ubg with 3 points....
So I decided we were going to do a triple point round.
BUT it included THREE coordinates.
You had to go to the first coordinate and stand on it, go to the second and stand on it, go to the third, pick up the cabbage there and trade it to me! (But of course I hid)

Ubg eventually found me:

So his points were tripled to 9, with Joe still on 8 OH NOES FOR JOE!

So we played a few more rounds and Mike and Starzhine won them, the top two contenders remained on 9 and 8 points.

So I decided to do the final round.
THE GRAND FINALE
The don of all cabbage coordinates!

3 coordinates, but only UBG vs Joe.
I didn't hide this time and the other players helped me judge the last round.
JOE GOT TO ME FIRST AND SO WAS ANNOUNCED AS THE WINNER WITH 10 POINTS

user posted image

Second - UBG with 9 Points
Third - Ragingwealth with 3 points hashdown.gif.png

user posted image

So the event was officially over, but then we saw a parade led by Mod Poppy come through Draynor, so a couple of us joined it:

The parade was to celebrate 5 years of RS Forums!

Battleship - Everyone lines up against the wall of the cabbage patch. I will shout (x,y) coordinates that correspond to a cabbage in the patch. The first person to pick the correct cabbage gets 1 point. The first person to 5 points will be the winner. The winner will receive 25k.

I'll be there hash.png
 
--------------------
Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion I gain strength.
Through strength I gain power.
Through power I gain victory.
Through victory my chains are broken.
The force shall free me.
There is no fear, there is power.
There is no death, there is immortality.
There is no weakness, there is the Dark Side.
I am the Heart of Darkness.
I know no fear,
But rather I instill it in my enemies.
I am the destoyer of worlds.
I know the power of the Dark Side.
I am the fire of hate.
All the Universe bows before me.
I pledge myself to the Darkness.
For I have found true life,
In the death of the light.
