4 Million Giveaway

The 4 Million Giveaway is pretty damn simple. I'm quitting pretty soon, and having a LOT of value in items and gold, this is just a small gesture of thanks and fun. For a week period of time starting the second I reach my 3,999th forum post I will be giving out items and deeds to players who solve my riddles. I will not use chars named "Vega", so tracking won't help anyone. Once a day I'll leave a riddle on the forums, and the first person to solve it and fulfill all contingencies wins the prize.

Four of the days will be basic scavenger hunts. All you'll have to do is find me. The other three days, I'll be in areas where PvP is allowed and the contingencies will be something like "first to find me and kill one person". Working solo or in groups can serve you well in either event. However, since I know most people are active on the forums, there will be an option per prize to donate your winnings to AshBorn's tournament efforts, or keep them for yourself. Whichever one you choose will remain anonymous.

I will make a post (1) hour before each riddle warning forum users that a riddle is in fact coming. I will however only stay in a single location for a four hour maximum period. I won't waste any more time than that, and if no one solves the riddle in that period of time, I'll randomly pick someone who posted in this thread to win the prize. All prizes and names for the last statement will be provided by a random.org list, which will serve as proof that no bias was used in the selections.

Prizes to be won:

(1) castle deed
(1) purple flowerpot
(2) dyed chests
(2) dyed kegs
(1) tower deed


That's 7 prizes for 7 days. I post a lot, so I assume this will start in less than a week. Stay tuned.

I'm quitting on 1/1/14, but becoming more and more inactive by week until then. And for the most part, yes.

New Years resolution type thing? Trying to take more time for IRL and less time at the computer?

C/P from PM to Menkaure:
I only play this game to hurt people's feelings. I have done almost every way to grief someone, and it's fulfilling. But about 2 months ago I became superrrr bored of UO. I don't want to turn out like -removed name-, and I could do a lot better than him. But, that's because I'm smarter than he is. That makes me smart enough to realize that I spend too much time playing UO and would rather stare at my apartment's roof than keep playing it. At least if I was staring at my roof, I wouldn't be consumed and would find something better to do.

Please let me leave this message here as a last ditch about the me quitting topic. Let's talk about how my cunning riddles will boggle your minds! And by that I mean be almost impossible to figure out for my entertainment.

I hate you for being a Redskins fan. Football season has started, anything is fair.
