Thank you Mod Hohbein,

We saw your message just now, so all is good! I will get Obby7 to give you a reply in a bit with a couple of questions I think he has.

One thing I was just thinking is that there should be an item that comes with being a Life Member that only they can own and what came to my mind was a Red Beret. I would also think that if they wanted to "lend" such an item, they should be able too under normal logout or 1-24 hour trade rules, since lending it would let other players enjoy a unique look.

The beret look is well known. A red beret would look good in dragon armour, and be that little bit different from a santa to certainly catch the eye. (How else will the average player be able to spot the big ticket winners?)


Thanks again!

(Oh, one thing Obby7 wanted to suggest - a "paintball" style mini-game, which sounds cool to me.)

The Golden Gnomes have been announced, BUT: along with the animation competition it´s *at least* five Big Tickets away from us who don´t do machinima. :|

Competitions giving out Big Tickets have been announced, yet I haven´t seen a trace of anything but endless machinima.
Still waiting for a writing, music... even an art contest would do even though I´d have no chance at all in that, just for diversity.
I´ve seen machinima makers wonder where all of them are going, which means participating in these competitions gives quite an advantage for all video makers out there.

Why does the short story competition need to be Live Action? Couldn´t the ´Scapers unleash their creativity in the litterary element without having to learn to perfect the visual element first (or vice versa)?
Yes, people can say "everyone should learn to make movies" but that´s simply not in some people´s interest sphere at all - effectively meaning they see tickets flying away in front of them.

There´s still days left of the year, but could you at least have one competition where other media of creativity than machinima are rewarded?
I hate to say this but it feels like I´m listening to the same record over and over again, let it be that Golden Gnomes are a great new initiative.

PS. As for giving away tickets for community involvement, I assume none have been given out yet because nobody has been announced to have gotten one.
THAT is a great thing though, it gives you more time to decide between those millions of players around.
