Fishing Contest (WIN EXDz)
Howdy Y'all one of my favorite things to do is slam down a cold one and fish so I'm bring it here. Will the fishing part any way. I'm going to have a fishing contest tomorrow starting 1700 hours shard time (5pm). I would like some feed back on what you would like to see in the contest. So far I'm going to go with "The Big" fish the ones that put the date and time on the fish so I can be sure the fish was caught during the contest. I will reward 1st, 2nd, and 3rd for the biggest fish and also the one who catches the most. Will pay gold down to 10th place and will buy all sos that the contestents want to sell for 5k each. I would like all and any feed back on this before I post the rules so I can get all the "bugs" worked out and everyone can have fun with it. Also gold will be given for the biggest catch on the hour. Now I just await your input so I can flesh this out and let everyone have fun 

Re: Fishing Contest (WIN EXDz)
ok here is what I'm thinking. Have the contest for 24 hours. And winners will be like this.
FOR EXDOLLARS:
1st - 15 exdollars
2nd - 10 exdollars
3rd - 5 exdollars
The most in 24 hours - 10 exdollars (yes you can place and win most)
Also there is a (1) power hour I will give a shout that the power hour starts and the biggest fish that hour wins 5 exdollars
FOR GOLD
4th - 100k
5th - 75k
6th - 50k
7th - 25k
8th - 15k
9th - 10k
10th - 5k
Also all winners will be posted with the fish (or fish) the won with so all my see
Good luck to all and happy fishing will check post and before start time make sure that the it's posted again with any changes as they come up. No changes to this can be made one hour before the contest starts so if you have some feed back you want in better post it before then. Again thank you all for making this such a fun shard and may the best fishing "person" win.

Re: Fishing Contest (WIN EXDz)
Amazing! I think we had a similar contest once about 2 or more years ago, I've put the time stamp on them for that reason and am glad it's still useful, but I've even forgotten that they now have it. Glad to see player ran events

Re: Fishing Contest (WIN EXDz)
will I got my hands on some more ex dollars so I'm going to add 5 more power hours making it a total of 6 power hours, that will give everyone a chance to win more. so the 1st place could walk out with 55 ex dollars if they also win most, and all the power hours. Good luck to all. I did not get any feed back so going to post the finial information on next post.
