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 and gains points! 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 points wins first prize! **Example: Previous Game Thread**


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.
  
• 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.
  
• First person to post a correct pic gains 2 points. All other persons who post a correct pic during the round gain 1 point.

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]

• No more than 3 bonus rounds per game
  
• Pay attention to the special instructions that come with each bonus round.
  
• Point allotments for bonus rounds will change!

One notable change from Jan's contest... I've decided to accept the suggestion that all participants in a normal round will gain a point. The winner will gain two points.

Is it bad that I saw this thread with a new reply and thought "zomg noooooo I missed it" before I remembered that it's not even February?

[Rill Soji]

lol

[Rill Soji]

I've picked out alllll the screenshots to use already.

/rubs hands together with glee!

[BrownFangThump]

Quite an ambitious idea there Rill. I commend you on that.

I'm totally lacking in that sort of panache for getting folks together through the game, though I do make strides in my own fashion

Good luck to you and all entrants.

[Rill Soji]

Grats! This pic can be found in the Fields of Ruin.

[Rill Soji]

It occurs to me that in the interest of allowing multiple people to play a round I won't post the location pic ^ for at least an hour after the round has been posted.
