Alright. The prizes from Cordovan are currently as follows:

  • x5 Point Codes valued at 500 TP per server
  • xY Wayfinder Sceptres per server (really pretty sceptre.. it really is)
  • Possibly a cosmetic robe - Hide and Sneaky in features, similar to the robe of knowledge, im
    inquiring upon the man to have it made.. Cheesy


I take it back - that is excellent news that Turbine are supporting you.  Good on you for doing this and for Cordo supporting it.
+1 Olath!   Grin

Agreed. It is awesome that the did something for the players.

Why didn't they start this sooner? Like... 8 years ago? Loving their customer base would have given them more players.

Wasn't Carrianne doing something like this too? You're not Carrianne, no? Or are you?


Carrianne (Guerric) and I are both doing Trivia on Saturday the 8th at 2pm eastern.

I am also doing a second run Through on Orien with my own game, hide and seek trivia, as well as a run through all the other servers.

All of my alts that matter on Orien are listed in my Sig, there are a lot of mules, event toons, and the such that are not listed, but id need moar room.. Cheesy

Also, I suggest you host it in "scenic" areas - atop a tower in the harbour, near the (now-gone) reincarnation trainer in house J, just outside the bank in house K, et cetera. Also, make sure that the hidey places are in the same instance - you wouldn't want folks with Teleport to outdistance those that don't. And try to limit it to areas where any new guy can go - meaning you don't need wings to get there.

And there should be something in Korthos!


I already have all of my hide spots picked out, and the clues for finding them. One spot for each house, enclave, Korthos, harbor, market, and 3bc. all locations are easily gotten to on a level 1, str dumped, jump dumped toon, ive tested it.. Cheesy A few spots are more easily gotten to with feather fall, however it is not required to access the locations.

The meeting points once found have almost all been determined, im still working out a few to fit the basis of lore questions ive currently thought up. Most of the questions are easily answered if you payed attention to the story lines of each house. If not, oh well Cheesy

Isn't 3bc a p2p pack?

Cuz... I don't remember quests there...

Also, I suggest *starting* the event with another toon, then log off and into the pre-hidden toon. Just to prevent imaginative (Sunnyshadow!) minds from scoping you out prior to the start of the event.

And the channel used should be awesome. Suggestions:

/joinchannel Titan
/joinchannel Hideandseek
/joinchannel Sunnyshadow
/joinchannel HappyDisciplinedDedicated

=D

Doh.. ment ataraxia.. not 3bc.. was thinking one thing.. typing another (Reading up on epic 3bc stuff while i work ^-^)

and, the channel is simple, as it will be used for any/all of my events, not just this one..

/joinchannel Events

as far as using one toon to start the event, all my event toons are already placed on each server where they will be starting at for round one. they are also /anon so as to not use the /who tab to find their house location..

You have to start the event in the area involved, with the hiding toon already pre-hidden.

You see, the problem with NOT starting in the house is that higher level folks can teleport via spells and scrolls. A poor paladin can't keep up with that.

As an alternative, you can start the event with the players near an unrelated teleport portal, like the ones in House K, house D, house P, and house J. That way, *everyone* gets to have a teleport handy to the area that they think they can go to.

Also - isn't Ataraxia level restricted?

Waterworks instead =D

Scratch waterworks. That's a slayer area.

Ataraxia is also a slayer area. Except for the resort, each player/party will have their own instance.

I saw Guerric (this name I don't know, so that's why I called him Carrianne) spamming titan and social channels about the event.

I'm awful at trivia, so I do not plan to participate, but I think this is a great idea to get players, and especially new players engaged.

It is my intention to do a few rounds of strickly Hide and Seek, just for those who normally would not join the event for lack of knowledge on the Lore. These rounds will be set up a little differently. Im still thinking of a way to include others. XD
