First, the 5 bonus prizes:

The character who actually dinged the guild level 60 was… LYRIANA!

The character who completed the most writs the day we dinged 60 was… FAIRUZA!

The first character to complete a writ on the day we dinged 60 was… KALLISTE!

The first character to earn an AA point on the day we dinged 60 was… SHAU!

The first character to earn a level on the day we dinged 60 was… MAXUM!

As promised, these 5 lucky characters will receive one mastercrafted item of their choice. I will be contacting them in-game to take their requests, so guys, keep an eye on the mailbox!

And now, the two grand prizes:

The character with the overall highest contributed status increase was… FAIRUZA! She went from 254,937 status to 349,496 status — an increase of 94,559 points!

The character with the highest percentage increase was… PRATT! He went from ZERO status to 71,204 status — in increase of 7,120,400%. Seriously!!

HUGE congratulations are in order for these two! They really worked their backsides off during the competition. As a bonus, they will both be promoted to the rank of Champion because of their incredible contributions to the guild. Well done!!

Thank you again to everyone who contributed. You guys rock. :)

NOTE: In the event that the winning character deferred, the prize was awarded to the first eligible runner-up. In the event that one character qualified for more than one prize in the same category, the additional prizes were awarded to the respective runners-up. In the event that one character qualified for two prizes and the runners-up were two different characters, the winner of the second prize was determined by 1d8. :)

We’ve had 5 new character enter the running since the last update. Sweet!

Keep in mind that these numbers are raw — no changes have been made with regard to players who have taken their characters out of the running.

As bonus prizes, the following characters will each receive one mastercrafted item of their choice! They can choose armor, jewelry, weapons, furniture, charms, consignment containers — anything! I will provide the rares and cover all fuel costs. These winners will be determined by the guild events log in-game. In the event that any of these…events…don’t occur on the day we hit 60, the prize will be awarded to the last character to have logged that event the day before.

  • The character who actually dings the guild level 60.
  • The character who completes the most writs the day we ding 60.
  • The first character to complete a writ on the day we ding 60.
  • The first character to earn an AA point on the day we ding 60.
  • The first character to earn a level (adventure or tradeskill) on the day we ding 60.

The original post has been corrected to reflect the proper standings!

In the overall increase category, Pratt comes in at #30 with 639 points earned, and Phlebas comes in at #32 with 119 points earned. In the percentage increase category, Pratt comes in at #4 with a 63,900.00% increase, and Phlebas comes in at #6 with a 11,900.00% increase.

In other news, we’ve just dinged level 59! Level 60 is within our sights… Don’t forget to vote for your 3 amenity choices in the poll to the right; when we hit 60, the top 3 amenities will be purchased for the entire guild to use!

Well done, everyone!

If your character’s name isn’t listed, then there has been no change in your status since the contest began on October 1. For characters starting with zero status, they’ve been granted 1 status point for the sake of the math. :)

]]> http://thehalasianempire.com/2009/10/push-to-60-contest-current-standings/feed/ 1 The Push to 60: Competition Time! http://thehalasianempire.com/2009/10/the-push-to-60-competition-time/ http://thehalasianempire.com/2009/10/the-push-to-60-competition-time/#comments Fri, 02 Oct 2009 02:07:39 +0000 Riannon http://thehalasianempire.com/?p=226 As of this writing, we’re 17% into level 58, and the long slog to level 60 is almost over. To get everyone motivated to help us reach our next big milestone, I’m holding a guild contest!

There will be TWO WINNERS in this contest:

1. The character who has the overall highest contributed status increase between now and the time we hit level 60 will receive

25 PLAT!

2. The character who has the highest percentage increase in their contributed guild status will receive their choice of ONE of the following prizes:

7-PIECE SET OF MASTERCRAFTED ARMOR

5-PIECE MASTERCRAFTED “COMBAT PACKAGE”
primary weapon, secondary weapon or shield,
ranged weapon or symbol, cloak, & pair of hex dolls

DUNGEON CRAWL OF YOUR CHOICE
with 5 high-level guildmates who are ALL mentoring you

By “highest percentage increase,” I mean the character who, during this content, increases their contributed status by the most, relatively speaking. If you go from 1,000 status to 2,000 status, your increase was 100%. If you go from 0 status to 1,000 status, your increase was 1,000%.

The contest runs from today, October 1, until we ding level 60 in-game. I’m making a note of everyone’s status as of tonight, and those are the numbers I’ll be basing the prizes on when they’re awarded.

Many thanks to Elyssia, who contributed half of the 25-plat prize!

In the event that one of my alts qualifies for either prize, it will be awarded to the next character in line.
