The Orcapalooza Loot List!

BRK » 29 August 2008 » In Orcapalooza » 27 Comments

HAPPENING RIGHT NOW/cheer!!!

7:30pm Eastern, 11:30 GMT, TONIGHT!!
Argent Dawn, US Server

Email your screenshots to bigredkitty@gmail.com

You know it, baby! Saturday, 30 August 2008. Your level-one and zero-XP orc, (any class, either gender, NO TROLLS), a couple hundred friends, Argent Dawn US server, and Bloodmoon Chosen with free shirts for everybody!

(AND BAGS, BMC!! IF YOU CAN MAKE THEM!!! WE FORGOT TO ASK YOUR TAILORS TO MAKE BAGS!! AAYYYYEEE!!! A couple bushels of six or eight-slotters would be awesome.)

Until the starting time, you can mill-about, run amok, be silly, whatever. STAY IN THE STARTING AREA. GET NO XP. DO NOT QUEST. DO NOT KILL ANYTHING.

You can get quests, if you want. That’s fine. Just no XP and no killing anything.

And at 7:30pm EDT (11:30 GMT) we start! Woohoo!

You have one hour to find as many things on our the BRK Orcapalooza Loot List as you can. Try to find the people from Bloodmoon Chosen scattered about Durotar, get screenshots with you and them together, (both of you alive, foshizzle!)

After ONE HOUR, time is UP and the scavenger hunt is OVER.

Count many items you found and how many of BMC-folks you found. Send us a quick email with those numbers in the Subject. Attach a screenshot of your open bags and all your screenshots of the BMC-folks. Optimize and compress your screenies all you like, that’s all good. Want to send us just one .zip file? Go for it.

You have TEN MINUTES to send us your email!! No email with a send-time after 8:40pm EDT will be accepted.

Each item on the list is worth a point. Each Bloodmoon Chosen screenshot is with is worth five points. The people with the top 5 point-totals WIN!

Prizes? You Bet!

Two boxes of WoW trading cards from RedScorpionGames!
Two 60-day WoW pre-paid cards from WoWMacros!
A Warcraft Millionaire package from Warcraft Millionaire!

Now TJ has promised to do her best to make Orcapalooza, but she will be recovering from Potential Date Search ‘08, so cut her some slack if she’s late or can’t stay too long.

ORCAPALOOZA!!

We hope this works…

  2. Tzia on August 29th, 2008 8:11 pm

    I am so there… this sounds like a blast to do.

  3. Boozsha on August 29th, 2008 8:26 pm

    Huge bummer for me, because I’m on call this week. Sounds like loads of fun, I’ll be waiting on the screen shots.

  4. Taureliloome on August 29th, 2008 10:25 pm

    to bad i’m a EU server player, would like to participate, luck to all :D

  5. Timezone on August 30th, 2008 12:23 am

    Whats the time server time cos I’m always getting confused between Eastern , Greenwich Mean etc. As for getting quests be careful as the first one you get gives xp.

  6. Sannu on August 30th, 2008 7:17 am

    Same as Taureliloome :(
    BRK, come to Europe!

    And I have work. /cry

    Though, mind if I make a suggestion? Kron’s Amulet could be like a bonus item, cause it’s the objective of a lvl 11 quest. It’s attainable at level 8, but I don’t know if anyone’s going to manage to get to it. Maybe it could be worth more points?

    Actually, now that I’m looking at it there’s quite a few quest items that’d tough to get that quickly. I dunno though :x

    What, no gumbo?

    Oh, sorry. I had this confused with the Okrapalooza festival in Selma, AL.

    Hey, orcs and okra have a lot in common. They’re both green, pungent, smart as any other vegetable, and turn to jelly when boiled.

    If I can make it, I’ll try, but being that my niece’s birthday party is today, I can only say “maybe”.

    *sigh*

    I miss all the good stuff.

    Do we have to take just one screenshot of the items? Or can we take a screenshot then clear out bag space for more items and another screenshot?

  11. krubs on August 30th, 2008 3:03 pm

    dude i totally won this

  12. BRK on August 30th, 2008 4:34 pm

    Fill your knapsack, take a screenshot, empty your knapsack. That’s totally fine.

  13. Grainger on August 30th, 2008 4:59 pm

    I plan on being there on “Babygrainger”…woot!

  14. Runathaluji on August 30th, 2008 5:19 pm

    Tanks for da early warnin scrub. Back to mah loom! *grumble*

    (Got with Rainz, Pozest, and Skobi and collectively we should have collected enough for a couple hundred bags. Doing the combines now, so we should be able to outfit a good number of wee Orclings, no worries.)

  15. Dahk on August 30th, 2008 5:24 pm

    I won’t be able to make it, but best of luck with the event! I’m sure everyone will have a great time.

  16. Asara on August 30th, 2008 5:27 pm

    Asaraette is ready! Do we need to mouse over each item so you can see the tooltip?

  17. Noobiewan on August 30th, 2008 6:54 pm

    You guys have fun now.

  18. BRK on August 30th, 2008 6:58 pm

    Do we need to mouse over each item so you can see the tooltip?

    Can’t hurt, not totally necessary. That would be a LOT of screenshots. Just show your bag of stuff; at some point, we have to trust you a little.

  19. halsey on August 30th, 2008 8:43 pm

    Akkk, I think my screenshots went in late :-{ Oh well, doubt I had enough to win, and had fun anyway :-}

  20. Chromaoran on August 30th, 2008 8:48 pm

    I can’t work out how to do the screen shots. Print screen doesn’t work. I’m giving up. Going to run around smiling at people instead.

  21. Nick S on August 30th, 2008 8:50 pm

    I got my screenshots in during the minute of 8:40… now I want to know… nay… DEMAND to know who won!

    [...] 4: One Thing, and One Bloodmoon Chosen! Halfway [...]

  23. Mascia on August 30th, 2008 9:08 pm

    Thanks BRK, it was really fun!
    I don’t think i’ll win, but anyways i had a great time

  24. Megalatron on August 30th, 2008 9:16 pm

    Oh my goodness. Did anyone else have issues with GMail sending? Mine JUST sent. It sat there for forty-five minutes saying “Still working…”

    Lord have mercy.

    Well, congratulations to the winners, and thank you to BRK, BMC and Argent Dawn for a great evening!

  25. halsey on August 30th, 2008 9:20 pm

    My gmail took a few minutes to send, but no where near that long. Just long enough I think I missed the 8:40 cut off

    But yes, had a great time either way :-}

  26. dez on August 31st, 2008 8:21 am

    That was fun!

    My wife and I went as a team, which is probably not entirely kosher. But we had fun anyway!

    We didn’t really expect to enjoy it that much. Treasure hunts are not usually our bag, but it ended up being more interesting than we expected.

    And the shirts are awesome!

    Thanks, BRK!

    [...] All I can say is, thank you for the event, insane orcs running amok and a server going WTF is with these orcs everywhere?! [. . .]
