The Secrets of the Pyramid

That was insanely hard.

But I have to do whats right for the Rise Stars?

Reward: Extra Spectral Box Key in "The Gunking Trivia Challenge #1".

Description of event:

I'm offering 4 Spectral Box Keys (1 per player) , but there's a twist.

You must locate the tank first and sit down. Then, answer 1 question of a category of your choice. You get 45 seconds to answer the first question.

Get to correct to win L$30 and a shot at L$55 and a Spectral Box Key (one of the four)

You then make your decision...

Take the money and stand up and walk away, or stay seated and risk your earnings for a chance at another prize...

Get the second question right in under 30 seconds and you will win L$55 and a Spectral Box Key.
BUT

Get either question wrong, your earnings go down to L$10 and you will get gunked because we'll pull the green chain next to you and you'll be covered in some greenish goo and then we'll be like "awww, better luck next time".

This is part of a series of Star Trivia Challenges now.



 

When Ravenous Posts Get You Nowhere

I always thought that people and entertainment were two of my more pleasant things. But, sometimes, even in a time like this, one can only hope that I was looking out for more clever ideas.

The Master's Path returns but on the wiki instead of the Blog, because the blog is really only used for certain stuff. Perhaps I could see that we'll be watching for something much more authentic and antique then ever before...

oh and watch out for the gunk dunk...

NOTE: embedded video is 30 minutes long but hahahahaha this may just give you an idea why im plotting lol

RE: Donations for Events and Charity Organizations

Followup to an article I read about and was apparently the cause of the reason why this suddenly started.

The Star Fishing Event Spin is a special community ran event that involves the Star Destiny Wheel. Some stuff you do need to know:

- Funds are added to buoy and buoy is turned OFF prior to a spin
- No player funds or landowner funds are touched
- The player who spins will still get something, even though it is indirect
*even inadvertantly global multipliers
- Their luck could win anything from a normal payout on a special buoy I run, or a very high multiplier up to 11x payout
- When spin is taken, and when it stops, buoy is set to that payout, then turned on (e.g. 4x Payout Event = 4x Buoy)
- Buoy stays on until drained and does not turn off until next event starts

During beta, I am testing to see if this is a popular item and if it will be more feeling for, when we go live. Also a couple more changes are to be made:

- Donations do not fund the Star Fishing Event Spins
- The budget is L$3,500 instead of L$1,500 (or can be L$1,500 - players vote)
- One specific person gets to spin, versus the randomness or undeclared person.
 - These happen mainly at Rise Headquarters, however landowner coordination may allow landowner sponsored Rise events.

You guys should wait and see what kind of awkward Master's Path update I will do tomorrow. Trust me, when I get back to battle, it'll be for the glory of the Rise Stars and nothing else, because my GAME is my blood.

What's this supposed to prove?

Is it just me or does this look really silly?

Rise Star Fishing - Star Fishing Event Spins [BETA Feature]

In Rise Star Fishing, I have introduced a concept relatively familiar to my Rise Star fans, called a Rise Star Fishing Event Spin.

The Rise Star Fishing Event Spin is an interesting take on random events I would host. Simply put, a player who has a spin, can work together with Warden and it will turn into a Star Fishing Event Spin, where your luck could win everyone an Event Buoy worth up to 11x payout.

But wait, this sounds expensive?

This is expensive. I do not always have the money, and seeing how promising this idea is, during live, I'm sure this will be more exciting to watch when honorable people get to do these. But, for beta events, I would render the Event Buoy (colored purple in this case) inactive or off, until this spin occurs.

I sent out a notice to all the Rise Stars earlier today saying if they want more "Beta Spin Events" it would be to contribute, as all their donations keep the 2x/3x buoys up. If they run low and I run low on money, I'd have to make them 2x or normal payout only.

When Star Fishing goes live though, it won't use this method, as funds can only be acquired through Rise Master's Quests.

So, what do I need to do to do these in Beta?

- The amount available to fill the Event Buoy (Purple Buoy) must be equal to L$2,000.
* This is often community funded - all donations go to the yellow/green buoys or the purple buoy on demand.
- Warden Stillwater's main must be online on a viewer. Celestial Warden does not count.
- A Rise player must have a spin that is unused. When we go live, we'll make sure it will be specific people who get to do the honors instead of random players. During beta, it will just be all about cooperation with each other.

When do you do these?

- This is relative on Warden's Real Life, and to the person who has to spin the wheel.
- Most of the time it would be at Midnight SLT (When buoys reset) or sometimes during the day at any given time.
- I try to balance the two major timezones. Midnight SLT or later would be for Europeans, while during the day would be for Americans.

Why do you do these?

- Main Reason: Player feedback. They all said that the art of randomness is a great way to get people together to watch people get to do the honors. 
- Secondary Reason: On landowner sponsored events, this gives loyal landowners a chance to make themselves feel more welcome with Rise.

What will change when Rise Star Fishing goes live and what will change with this idea?

- Budget limit will be L$4,000 per event, instead of L$2,000 per event.
- Players will get to choose the budget limit, ranging from L$2,000 to L$4,000, depending on the budget limit, the rest can go to the landowner, or to players through Star Trivia.
- Specific people get to spin the wheel, instead of random people or blind event spins.
- Earning Star Fishing Event Spins only comes from Rise Master's Path quests. Any donations will keep buoys afloat and help pay staff salaries after beta.

Stance of the Future: What You Can Expect

This has questioned a lot of people and seems to be spreading all across the grid:
