This week's Hunt Nite will also be a "fund raiser" for the zoo. I was trying to think of a way to bring together our normal hunt nite fun and raise some funds/points for the zoo and I think I've hit on a way to do it. However, it's going to take every bit of the teamwork and organization that we've gotten pretty good at over the past few months.
Here's my idea and tell me what you think. Our Hunt Nite this week will take place in Destard. Destard is the one dungeon I can think of that has something for everyone!
At the beginning of the evening, we will gather at Yew Gate, Trammel at 8:00 p.m. as usual. Everyone will be given a book with a number in it. Hold onto the books cause you will need them at the end of the nite! But I'll get to that part in a minute.
We will need players from every walk of life. Tamers, warriors, bards, mages, heck yes, even crafters!!! When we get to Yew Gate, we will sort everyone out into groups and assignments. It will go something like this:
Tamers will concentrate on taming as many drakes and dragons as they can.
Mages will be stationed throughout Destard for gates to the zoo, rezzing, healing, fighting or whatever is needed.
Bards will go along with tamers and warriors to peace, provoke, or discord as needed.
Warriors will fight the Shadow Wyrms, Ancient Wyrms, Wyverns, Snakes, etc., pretty much anything EXCEPT Drakes and Dragons are open game!
Crafters with beetles will go along to loot corpses of every possible item (gems, armor, weapons) and resources and sell these to the provisioners.
As each animal is tamed, I will have my tamer, Jessica Nichole, Cat Herder, O*S Guild, stationed at the zoo to collect the animals and turn them in. In addition, I will donate my personal points that I’ve gotten so far.
All gold (from corpses and from selling items) will be collected up and tallied and the total announced to the group at Moonglow Zoo at 11:30 p.m. At that time, I will donate ALL the gold collected to the zoo and draw a number at random. The winning number will pick a "prize" from the prize tier we have reached and I will claim that prize for them.
Now a couple of keys to this. First off, everyone will need to be at the Yew Gate at 8:00 sharp to receive a book with a number for the nite’s drawing. Second, we are going on the honor system. We are counting on the fact that everyone who claims a number participates in the donation process.
Ok, Thoughts???????
