*Criers throughout Markshire direct everyone’s attention to special notices.*
NOTICE TO ONE AND ALL
It is once again the anniversary of our beloved kingdom.
Therefore I proclaim that this **Monday, January the 14th,** we shall enjoy the spectacle of a CITY WIDE CONTEST.
At 7 PM **EST** sharp the contest will begin. It will last for ONE HOUR. After the contest a winner shall be announced.
THIS CONTEST IS OPEN TO ALL WHO WISH TO ENTER.The prizes are to be announced prior to the event. At the minimum everyone who participates will come away with some gold.
– LORD ALLOX MARK
*affixed with the seal of Lord Mark************ OOC ***********
This is an In Character contest event. You must be present to participate. The contest starts at 7 pm EST and will last exactly one hour. Latecomers may still participate.
Evil PCs must be able to disguise themselves. Sorry, no Ogres, Trolls, Boggles or Fiends.
Each contestant will receive a contest item worth 50 gold and 100xp. So everyone who participates will get something out of this.
Those who wish to participate should show up at 6:45 pm EST. Rules for this contest will be discussed in game at that time.
Prizes shall be awarded for the top 3 contestants only.
1st Prize shall garner 500xp
2nd and 3rd Prizes shall garner 250xp
As stated; ALL CONTESTANTS will receive 100xp just for participating.
Additional prizes will be announced in game.
One final prize … The Winner will have their Forum Title changed to include “2008 Champion.“
The only person exempt from this contest is ME. ALL DMs and Players may participate with their current PCs.
No new PCs shall be accepted for any existing Players. Only new Players may make new PCs. The level of any given PC will have little impact on the outcome of this contest. I fully expect that a person’s game speed will affect their ability to participate but you never know.
This is the third time we have run this event. The last event went off very well. Good luck one and all.

You are looking at it this time.
The reasons this year’s contest results were so much higher then last year’s:
I rebuilt the spawning code for speed. Since the new spawning code (ie. Random Denizens) works so much better and quicker there’s no lag.
I also used a separate module for the game this year. So there was only Stonemark and its shoppes. Faster still.
So the new record with better module and scripts is 390 as set by Remus with Erica Draiman.
Domf’s initial record stands alone never to be beaten because we won’t be replicating the circumstances again.
