Arca Event

[Zubin]

all right I want to propose an event for Arca Effex to post in the "player events".

I'd like to do a "Arca Derby Race"
it'll be a cross country race through the wilds of Corellia. starting in Arca Effex.

The race will be Mount only (so find a CH or get a Mount reward from one of the 2 Kashyyykian quests which reward mounts).

Grand prize: A bubble tank Schematic from my own personal stash.
Second: As yet to be determined
Third: also yet to be determined

2 questions:

1) should there be an "entry fee" which I could collect from the entrants either for city funds, or to create a "pot" which could be split with the winners?

2) which night of the week should we have it? the Thursday Hunt was quite a success and I'd rather not mess with that day. I'm thinking possibly, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday night (10pm EST/7pm PST).

If/when I post on the events forum I'm thinking of posting that there will be a usual Arca party in the TAB afterwards.

let me know what you think.

Fun idea and something I'll really be looking forward to. But if this is going to be a "fair" race, there needs to be some provision made for the differing speeds of the different types of mounts. Someone on a falumpaset, for example, has zero chance against someone on a kaadu or varactyl. Even a dewback is going to get stomped against that pair.

Intriguing. I have no idea about which mount is faster or slower, but I do know that Cuddles my cu pa is not very quick and much slower than a kaadu. I've no idea how my varactyl fares.

No one can stop Gary. No one.

No riderless entries allowed. If Gary is going to race, he'll need to drag you back in-game first.

varactyl is the fastest

I wouldn't rule out thursdays. It was our hunt night because it was the easiest night for most of us, and likely still will be. And that would make it the best night for doing a big event like this as well.

I don't know about anyone else, but friday-sunday will continue to be the hardest nights for me to join in in anything.

Sensai- most of My art stash is from the bestine art competition stuff.
Vert- well, I can't stop anyone from choosing the mount they want. there's still a debate over whether the Varactyl or Bolotaur is faster. folks with fast mounts could still get messed up by lagg... I plan to involve alot of terrain obstacles... this is still in the planning stages, so if anyone has any ideas to make it more fair, I'm quite open to them.
Ivoete'b- dates are negotiable, we could schedule it for a thursday night if that works better for everyone.
