How To Play

I will be posting a picture of me, Rill Soji,  standing somewhere in the world of Tyria. First person to post a picture of their character in the same place wins the round! Once a winning pic is posted, I will post another pic at another location. When I close the thread after 20 pics the person with the most rounds won, wins first prize!


Rules and Requirements

• NA servers only. The prize codes are un-redeemable elsewhere.
  
• Pics can be posted by me at any time of the day/night but usually within 24 hours of the last round's winner posting.
  
• Multiple rounds can be posted in the same day.
  
• Tiebreaker rounds will be posted if necessary
  
• Edited posts will be disqualified. If you made a mistake, you must post again.
  
• Level ?? - Max level is best. Some pics will be taken in level restrictive areas.
  
• Keep an eye out for Bonus Rounds and the special instructions that go with them.
  
• Bonus rounds do not count toward the 20 pics requirement to end the game.
  
• Bonus round screenshots must be submitted without the minimap visible. (CTRL+Shift+H will make the UI disappear for a clean screenshot)
  
• Pics will NEVER be in places you are not allowed to be in game.
  
• Prizes will be mailed to you in game or codes sent via private msg.

Prizes

1st Place: Code for $15 Gem Card
(If you want the physical card mailed to you I can make that arrangement.)


2nd Place: A Random Mini


3rd Place: 5 Unidentified Dye


Participation: 1 Unidentified Dye
(Win at least 1 round)

[Rill Soji]

Warmup/Example Round
-No points, just for fun!

[Drake Erif]

heh, this is an awesome idea! can't wait til this kicks off for real. To help get the ball rolling....

Does Rockapella do the theme song for this game? I'm not playing if they don't. Seriously, Rill, these guys could use the work. And what woman wouldn't want these 5 handsome lads singing a song about her?



lol, "Watch your back!" indeed, fellas.

A "small" request.  Can people (other than Rill) attach thumbnails instead of full size pictures?  This could be a nightmare to open at 42 pictures.

Hah! I hoped someone would get the carmen sandiego reference.

[Tiwwi]

I absolutely love this. This will occupy me for the entire duration of the contest.

Good morning and well done Drake Erif and Tiwwi! The Warmup Round was brought to you by good people of Farshore Ward in Lion's Arch!

[Rill Soji]

Round 2

[Rill Soji]

This is fantastic. I love seeing each place at different times of day, too. It's interesting to see how this world changes depending on how the light hits it. It would be cool, however, to do a bonus round where the picture has to be taken as close to the same time as yours so they look as identical as possible. That shows dedication if someone sat somewhere for an entire day cycle to get the best possible picture. Or if they just got lucky and happened to be in the right place at the right time.
