Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit

Subject: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Mon Jul 26, 2010 3:57 pm

Original idea (thank Antifreke for his submission):

antifreke wrote:: "...if possible ...a monthly quest that can be done once, that allows you to cash in up to 10 TEXP in one week.. since there are some of us who are getting to where we cant spend it fast enough..

answer? Hell no! BUT!

Break TEXP Limit Monthly Quest!

This is how it works: a lot of ppl've been working their butts off this month... this pleases me, so I'll reward like behavior at the end of August!

You win by accumulating points!

If you break 1,000 points in a month (something akechdog, escalayitonme, and antiI'mBringingSexyBack did in less than a month) then you can trade in 10 TEXP points for 25,000 EXP! (this will not effect your ability to trade in 2 texp for 5k a week)

break 500 and i guess i'll let you trade 5 texp for 12.500... meh, but that'll be like a door prize xD

i'ma start adding monthly contests winners to ppl's bios to show off how awesome they are. hell, might make em like xbox live achievements! (goes off to find icons >.>)

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Mon Jul 26, 2010 4:11 pm

Awesome.
So, how exactly are points calculated again?

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Mon Jul 26, 2010 4:43 pm

GOOD QUESTION BOY!
for ppl who don't know
points are accumulated by posting in RP threads
meaning, every post you do on a site thread (i.e. city metro, etc) gives you a certain amount of points
when i have sagas/etcs, you get more points
also adding friends oddly enough gives you points >.>
but ya, that's how you get points...

now... how do you get disqualified?
that's easy
do somethin dumb enough to tick me off
i.e. posting one liners on purpose or doing anything other than rping like normal that draws the EYE OF SHIN to it!

Evil or Very Mad

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Mon Jul 26, 2010 5:42 pm

GOTCHA' DOG. I'MMA RECK SHOP ALL DAY WITH THIS EVENT. JUST LOOK AT HOW MANY FRIENDS I.... oh.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Mon Jul 26, 2010 6:03 pm

Nice; I guess I can clean out the Shin Shop now.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Jul 27, 2010 1:47 am

Ballin..
and I love that nickname.. and Yea.. I am Bringing Sexy back..

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Jul 27, 2010 9:14 am

;D t'was nothing at all shin, all too easeh to get over 1000 pts.

more detailed breakdown:
0 pts for posting updates
1 pt for ooc thread posts and bio workshop and site help [I think on the last one...]
3 pts for posting a new ooc topic (I think...)
5 pts for posting on any board but the saga board
10 pts for posting in the saga board

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Jul 27, 2010 1:54 pm

So.. does this mean that it doesnt work for this month, but starts next month?

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Jul 27, 2010 2:10 pm

I'd imagine there'd be a board on the 1st of August where you post your current points, or something like that.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Jul 27, 2010 6:38 pm

and I dont even get anything for my quest idea ^_^

Last month they were reset to 0.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Jul 27, 2010 8:06 pm

Oh. Well that's fine then. Meep merp.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Jul 27, 2010 10:32 pm

It automatically saves it somehow b/c Shin was able to post the final results even after they reset. Oh and the stupid thing resets at Midnight EST/9 PM PST.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Jul 28, 2010 12:37 am

well, thats a nifty little thing to have isnt it..

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Mon Aug 30, 2010 3:00 pm

Oh yea.. your exchange rate is off...
10 texp is 50,000 experience

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Aug 31, 2010 2:26 pm

how u figure? o.o
show your math!

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Aug 31, 2010 6:12 pm

Ash, his math is correct. b/c the conversion is 2 TEXP for 5k EXP thus 10 TEXP = 25k exp.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Aug 31, 2010 6:40 pm

I wasnt talking about that, I interpreted his other statement incorrectly.

"2 texp for 5k per month"

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Aug 31, 2010 6:56 pm

Ooooooh. Yeah, that's wrong. That's 2T for 5k a WEEK. I just ignored it since I'm STILL waiting on him to update certain things.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Aug 31, 2010 8:57 pm

Godspeed.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 01, 2010 10:37 am

alrighty.. 1000 points.. 30 days.. thats 34 points a day, or 7 RP posts. it would be much easier with a site event.

+1 for truth... the management here really needs to get with it o.o

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 01, 2010 12:23 pm

Maybe.. since we havent had a site event in over a month... then again, we are right in the middle of possibly starting one with our little duck hunt in the underworld...

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 01, 2010 12:39 pm

there's actually another one...
just crap at work's makin it hard to actually do it

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 01, 2010 5:28 pm

awe... work sucks.. lol.

Do you want us to continue, or hold off on it.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 01, 2010 6:54 pm

Nothing's really stopping us from doing some of the hell quests since we're there.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 01, 2010 7:29 pm

good point, we could get those out of the way since they are pretty handy. that bronze chestplate that repairs itself would be nice..

but I would put money on battle of the eldar being more up your alley

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 01, 2010 7:38 pm

Of course, but that requires interaction; I'd much rather Shin do a saga than an interactive RP. I'll let you choose and start off; just notify me to the appropriate thread.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 01, 2010 8:00 pm

we can really go on without themeless for now, and let him catch up later. He knew we were starting this anyway, and its not like we havent beaten that spirit into the ground before.

lol.
so thoughtful

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Fri Sep 03, 2010 11:46 pm

I agree with him. The little ones take so much time, and sagas are big and fun. we will be kicking the other one off shortly. Need time to recover from the roadtrip

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Sep 07, 2010 12:07 pm

so i think it comes up to 6 posts a day to keep you on target with the 1000 pt goal...

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Sep 07, 2010 12:09 pm

RULE ALLOWANCE!
since ppl want to do solos, but still get points, i'll allow ppl to break up solos in 250 wds in order to up their pts
so if you do a 1k post, u get 4 posts which is prolly round 20 pts

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Sep 07, 2010 3:33 pm

That makes it a hella lot easier to get it done, but still requires work. time to get some of that work done!

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Sep 07, 2010 9:29 pm

This rule would have been SOOOOO f'n useful the month Kyro barely beat me b/c of the saga. Most of my stuff was solo quests. Good to know for this month tho. :)

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Sep 07, 2010 10:07 pm

you and me both, im mad happy about this one. Rock on... post counts this month are going to go through the roof..

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 9:58 am

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 2:50 pm

For just being the boss man and over seeing things, you have a lot more points than most people.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 3:17 pm

lmao! would you look @ that
maybe i'll get some texp!

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 3:48 pm

I would lol if you got TEXP over members who rp.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 3:57 pm

i'd give it to those who worked hard xD

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 4:01 pm

if you got it, then they werent working hard lol

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 4:38 pm

-runs past, takes shin's texp, runs away- bwuahahahahha

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 4:56 pm

You should ride a horse by.. that way its a drive by

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Sep 08, 2010 6:41 pm

So even Shin is breaking his laziness to come against me? Interesting.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Thu Sep 09, 2010 12:20 pm

MUUHUUUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHA
TEHE
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

might wanna step ya GAME up

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Thu Sep 09, 2010 1:07 pm

He always has a mid level number, and then it usually shoots up in bursts. I started out beating him last month, and went away for a weekend, came back and he was 250 points ahead of me.

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Oct 20, 2010 10:08 am

Does this also mean that you can trade in 25k exp for 10texp?

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Wed Oct 20, 2010 11:07 am

Ya sure

Subject: Re: Site Contest: Break TEXP Limit Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:40 pm

Claiming this for August, September and October; totals were ~0.7k, ~1k and ~3k respectively.
