Event Start: Friday, October 19. Time TBA.
Event End: When all the tickets are found.

Scavenger Hunt Rules
- A single ticket may only be claimed once.

- If a ticket is claimed more than once, the post with the earliest time stamp will receive it.

- Do NOT edit your posts to try to get the earliest time stamp. Doing so will get you greylisted and banned from the entire Halloween event.

- A single person may find and keep only 2 different colored tickets. For example, if you found a red and 2 greens, you may only post to claim the red and one of the greens.

- You may NOT use mules to bypass the ticket limit. Doing so will get you greylisted and banned from the entire Halloween event.

- Yes, you may tell friends the location of extra stuff you find once you reach your limit but please keep it in PMs and IMs.

- You may proxy 1 ticket for someone who was unable to make it to the hunt only AFTER the first 15 tickets are found. *NEW*

- If the number of tickets vastly outnumbers the number of participants, an announcement will be made to set a new per person ticket limit.

- There is a fixed number of tickets/colors available and I have a list of where they are all hidden. Do NOT try to pass off additional "copies" of tickets. Doing so will get you greylisted and banned from the entire Halloween event.

- If you happen to find the location of a ticket before the event opens, sit on it until it does open. If you spout off it's location or that you already found a ticket, you will be greylisted and banned from the entire Halloween event.

- Do NOT whine if someone beats you to a ticket. There should be plenty to go around and there are other prizes to be won elsewhere in the event. 35+ prizes makes the chances of everyone winning at least one very very good.

- Beta Lake is a public guild, meaning even if you aren't a member you can post. However, if you aren't a member, you cannot edit your posts. If you're interested in joining and aren't accepted right away, please gently poke the shop staff in the main thread.

How to Play

Your task, beta customers, is to find the 31 tickets scattered all over the guild. They look like the above example, except the little square on the side will be red, orange, blue, purple, gray, brown, yellow or green, not white.

What do the colors mean? You won't find out until Halloween! >D

Tickets can be found/Hints:
- in the main guild forum
- in the guild RP forum
- in Shop Staff tanks in the journal forum
- in the bottom left of posts in above forums
- only TWO threads have more than one ticket hidden within

How to claim your find:
Quote the post you found the ticket in and post it in this thread
Quotes should contain:
- the name of the original poster (up at the top of the quote in "")
- the last line of the original post (may be the ONLY line or not even a complete sentence or an image link)
- the ticket (of course)
Optional:
- page, post number, and thread title of the original post
One claim per post please.

For examples of valid and invalid posts, see the post below "Links."

How to Redeem
- Hang on to your ticket once the list shows you found it! Direct link!
- On Oct. 31 (or possibly Nov. 1), the tickets will reveal what your prize is.
- Save your ticket (just in case they get removed from PB)!

- Anytime after Nov. 1 you may redeem your ticket here in this thread.
- Make a post with your ticket and any additional info required (custom form, item order, etc.) and Aryn will see to it as quickly as possible.
- If Gnatty, Rave, Kisha, or Nova accept your ticket in their anytimes/slots, please post with your ticket and the colorist's name so Aryn can mark your ticket as used.
- A single ticket may only be redeemed once.

Stuff to be added or edited as needed, but the basics seem to be covered.

Posting examples! To make sure we're all on the same page. For the purpose of these examples, we're going to use the rule posts in this thread as our guinea pigs.

Each example will have a few notes in red.

Examples of a Correct Claim Post:

ArynLight

^ Original Poster quoted
Stuff to be added or edited as needed, but the basics seem to be covered. <-- Last line of the post
User Image

<-- Ticket

That's all you need to include in your claim post, adjusted for the specific posts used in the event and without the red notes of course. The length of the last line may vary depending upon your browser or resolution and my notes are set up to compensate this. Occasionally the last line is an image or image link, all you need to put is the link and not the img tags.

Found in Hallowen 07 Scavenger Hunt, page 1, post 2. <-- Optional

Adding in what thread, page, and post you found the ticket in is allowed and optional. It's awesome and helpful if you do this, but not necessary.

Everything that's included in the correct post IS included here. However, most of the original post is included too which is not needed and renders this claim post invalid.

The problem with this one? The original poster is left off up at the top.

Problem here? Attempting to make two ticket claims in one post. One claim per post please, and really trying for two in the same will probably take LONGER.
