During the Gather celebration for the next week until June 1st I will be awarding points and prizes for certain Gather-related activities!
Every post you make on the IC-date the Gather is held will earn you one raffle ticket throughout the rest of May. That means you can create your own threads in other locations (beach/ocean, back at the Weyr, home sick, anything!) and still earn tickets! Members in and joining an additional thread will receive one additional ticket. There are several prizes or prize packages you can win only with raffle tickets, so post away!
The prizes will be raffled off in order over the next several days.
Raffle Prizes:
-Your character finds an adorable feline kit to take home with them
-Your character stops the thief who took Lady Harra's mark purse and is invited to lunch at the racetrack with the Lord and Lady Holders and gets [to be revealed IC]
-Your character discovers a huge clutch of eggs on the beach which will be hatched IC at the Weyr the next sevenday (also guarantees your character one or two flitts)
-Your character overhears something they shouldn't have from some very shady people but are not seen (plot snippet)
-Your character Impresses the Queen firelizard from the Clutch
Games & Points
At around 3 o'clock IC time there will be a team game. A cross between something like an egg hunt and riddle solving. You'll see Points will be awarded to the winners and 7 points to all participants.
Compete in races, cheat at cards or engage in games (go kick a ball or throw something around or make up your own game) with other characters to earn 3 points apiece.
Gossip about people who aren't around for 2 points.
Go dancing with someone else for 3 points.
Have your character talk to someone about how the new Thoroughfare will or won't change things for 5 points.
Make a scene for 4 points - get as much attention as you can!
(Other interesting activities can be rewarded points on a case by case basis. This list is subject to expand. ^^)
Trade Points
Trade in your points for novelty items for your character such as:
-unique hobby items that are hard to get a hold of (paints, nice paper, carving wood, novels, simple musical instruments like small drums, tambourines and reed flutes) [10]
-decorative jewelry [5]
-a bouquet of flowers [1]
-pets at a 15% discount when bought with points
-or trade 1 point to 1 mark to use later
**If you are looking for items not specifically on the list, but have something in mind, PM me and we'll discuss plausibility and price.
