Excelsior

This contest is going great so far. 19 Unique Entries so far. And approx 30 others tossed in for the Variety prizes that will be coming soon.

If the entries continue to grow as they have been, more prizes will be added to the Prize Pool. And I will be creating some Variety Prizes that will be chosen at random out of all the other fish.

So don't just drop in your 1 best. Drop in 2 or 3 of various weights. Your ONE BEST fish will be entered for the top prizes. All the other fish submitted will be used for choosing the random prizes.

The following are just some examples of what I'm thinking. And are subject to change.
They will be chosen COMPLETELY at random from all the extra fish that have been submitted.

Categories such as:
Smallest Fish
Prettiest Fish
Ugliest Fish
Best Hooker
Hook-Line-N-Sinker
Smelliest Fish

You get the idea. Of course there is NO WAY of determining a winner for any of those categories, so they will be chosen PURELY at random.

Over the course of the next couple weeks, I will try to come up with some prizes and official category names. And will post them once I have finalized them.


Once again, thank you everyone for supporting this event, and keep up the great work!

Currently working on about 20 more Prizes for the Prize Pool.

I no longer NEED any more donations to the prize pool, but if you have any items you think would make good prizes, please PM me. I will happily consider any suggestions.

THANK YOU to everyone that has generously donated prizes to the prize pool. This contest wouldn't be nearly as grand without all your support!

I have an unusual big fish

where does this fit in the compo

Nothing unusual about it. Big Fish under 20 stones aren't marked with the date and the fisherman's name.

Ok never seen 1 in 3 years of fishing

I started planning it on March 1st, but due to work, I was unable to get on and announce it on the first.

I will look into and review the prize order.

The reason it has no name/date on it is because it is under 20 stones in size, and you can't use a Trophy deed on a fish that small.

A couple people submitted a few of these already. Not much I can do with them, since there is no name of them, and no date to prove it was caught within the time frame. I might come up with a minor prize and category for them, but it will be more of a gag prize and not really worth trying for.

I made a slight adjustment to the order of the TOP Prizes based on suggestions from various people.

Here is a glimpse of the Prizes just waiting to be had!
Good luck Everyone! The deadline is fast approaching! You have til MIDNIGHT (Shard Time) on March 31st.
Winners will be announced within a day or two thereafter.

Good event Coal
