Post here for all discussion. What you know and don't know and what you would like to know. Members who were here for the last one, back in 2005, please tell the newer guys what its all about.

In a nutshell
The concept is, I'm hiding somewhere in RS and you have to find me. The earlier you get the me the better your prize.

When the quest starts I put 2 topics into Part I. The first is the master riddle. A very tough riddle that will lead you to me when it's cracked. The second is a normal clue which is much easier than the master riddle. The normal clue, when answered, will give you the password to the Part II forum... and in Part II you get another clue that leads to Part III and so on until you get to my location in Part V.

You'll be travelling around RS using co-ordinates and various instructions to find out the password to each forum. Considering the difficulty of the master riddle, working out 5 clues should take the same time as working out the master riddle.

Or you could blindly go hunting for me.

_____

You also get to form teams of up to 4 people. Now it's going to happen on a PvP world meaning you can kill each other, lie to each other, mislead each other... it's also a game of tactics. Do whatever it takes to throw other teams off the scent. The first team to find me wins.

I'll make a topic about teams later on... this event is over a month away. I'm releasing it a bit early to get you guys hyped up. I hope you can already tell how exciting this quest is going to be...

I keep it rare on purpose. Once a year during the anniversary. It's a really magnificent event.

_______

Link to the last quest:
http://www.wildernessguardians.com/photos/...versary2005.htm
Scroll down to Da Lordy Code

Here's the old Master Riddle:

Here in the place where earth meets sky
High up - a mountain
And heaven's blanket veils the land
Snow
His Lordship waits with drowsy eye
Red herring... it was 7am when I hosted this lol
Away from town and desert sand
Nowhere near the major towns or the desert

A bond defends that quiet place
The Troll Romance quest (the Romance being the bond) stops people from getting there
With life near death so ever rare
The Trollweiss is the life, and the mountain is of course Death Plataeu
That swiftly fall and fly with grace
You have to sled
You must, to claim the great beast's care
In order to pass the quest and bring the two trolls together

So you can see how much decoding it takes.
My master riddles are never easy.

I doubt you even read it properly... considering how fast you posted it and how generic your reply is.

This seems..interesting..

Only one question though, is this going to be on event happening on one day, or multiple events on multiple days?

This seems like the show 'Treasure hunters' tongue.gif

It typically takes about 45 minutes for the fastest team and about 75 minutes for the slowest team.

I remember this. It was an awesome event. The riddles were hard though. I remember just blindly trying place, and when something came to mind, I'd try it as the password to the next clue. I was hopeless...

But times have changed!

Just a quick question, when you say we can kill each other, are you talking about killing members of our team, or killing the other team? Or both? Just wanted to clear that up.

I'm definitely looking forward to this event.

After the wilderness issues last year I think the last one was cancelled. I can't wait to do it again, it was always so fun.

Thank you Garrett and Dallar.

is the day you have stopped leading them.
They have either lost confidence that you can help them
or concluded that you do not care.
Either case is a failure of leadership.”

Yes, it really was a great deal of fun. It was a part of a ton of anniversary events. Can't believe its been three years since its last happened blink.gif

I remember rushing home on Friday night to try the clan quest, even though I was already 30 minutes late. I ended up trying to do it alone, but still failing. Got to maybe the 3rd clue before Lordy just gave us his location tongue.gif Couldn't even get there at the time sad.gif

But besides the fact that I got nothing, it was extremely enjoyable, even alone. Its a lot easier with a team though, so I recommend everyone get one hash.png
