View Full Version : A Toast to Filbus! - Fungus Covered Scale Tunic Giveaway
Ravager
02-01-2018, 08:29 PM
I promised I would when certain conditions were met (and they have been), so I'm giving away another fungi tunic. Here's how the giveaway will work:
I don't play much. I log on for a few hours a week and tool around on one of my alts. The first person to hand me an alcoholic beverage, drink an alcoholic beverage of their own and /say, "A Toast to Filbus! The Filthiest Footed Halfling this side of Rivervale!" (spelling and capitalization must be the same or it doesn't count) will win the Fungus Covered Scale Tunic. Also, it must be in /say. It can't be in /tell, /shout, /ooc, etc.
When I am found, I will drink and respond with a toast of my own, which is known only to me (to prevent fraudsters).
Here's the trick: I won't tell you which alt I'm on or when I'm on. I'm pretty sure nobody knows the alt I currently play is mine, and I also tend to pop on at various times of day, so it will be fair for all. Make those macros, buy those ales and try to find me.
When the first person finds me and toasts proper, I'll meet them in EC with the fungi and pass it off. I'll snap a screenshot of the first encounter as well as the awarding of the prize and post them in this thread.
One hint I'll give is you'll never find me in East Commonlands (until it is time to give away the fungi), that zone sucks. So don't annoy the people there, unless you want to, but there's no fungi in it if you do. I'll give a new hint each week of my alt's identity until I am found.
Remember, I could be anybody, so be generous with the drink and toast with everyone Filbus's name!
Good luck!
P.S. This is legit, I gave away a fungi last summer. See the Fishing for a Fungus Covered Scale Tunic thread for my credentials.

I don't see how that is anything like what I'm doing Baler. Please don't equate my giveaway to a scam. I'm just trying to have fun and give away a fungi, like I did before (https://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=277086&highlight=fishing+fungus+tunic).

It's very similar in regards to having a core set of rules that are precise enough to trick people into failing to follow them to a T. As well as leaving a loop hole in which you can control who wins.
Well, I'm sorry you feel that way. My intent wasn't to make it look like a scam, in fact the complete opposite. My specific rules were meant so that: 1) There could be only one winner, because, frankly, I don't want to give away two fungi tunics. And 2) A couple of people couldn't stage something that made it look like they found me when they haven't and start a ruckus about how I owe them a fungi.
But, if you don't like it, don't play along. I'm an honest guy and many honest people here would vouch for that.

What's convoluted? Give out beers to everyone, toast Filbus, and if it's me you get a fungi.
But I'm done arguing with you. It's my giveaway, I will run it how I want. If you think I'm scamming you, don't spend your silver on a short beer.

Never quite understood ignoring someone here and then posting about ignoring them. You’re letting them win with that strategy. I think it’s more effevtive to not actually ignore them, just never respond to them and dismiss them. That is my advice for max rustles.

My only concern is for Ravager.
This could end up being a 5 year event if he picks really interesting places to hang out while doing this event on his unknown alt, which I hope he does. :p
That, and the shops running out of ale and ale-making supplies! What would all the dwarves and halflings do without ale?
This is a great idea for an event.

let's gather some optics about ravager
he's rich, so his character won't be in rags
his character is level 40 minimum
he's played a druid a monk, so don't bother with those
most likely he's rping a knight class, because BDA dying broke his brain
tell me if im wrong

Every day Ravager logs in then hides/sneaks his rogue deep into RunnyEye down to where you can hear the goblin chatter and spell castings. There he parks himself for hours watching the screen with a beer seated next to his mouse, hoping no one ever finds him so this routine can never end.

actually ravager's brain broke before BDA died. It broke when his computer got some glitch where he couldn't log into EQ for months and months on end.
Ravager has proclaimed, numerous times, that he loves to roll untwinked alts and play with complete noobs. So I would also say that this alt could totally NOT be geared out!

Calm down, take a deep breath. It's ok. There are good people in the world, who actually will give away valuable pixels from time to time on p99.

I go to gfay and do give aways (bunch of items adding up to 10k+) every few months or so, you can even find a thread I made if you search hard enough. The difference is, people are actually able to get the items I give away, I don't make them do ridiculous shit where they are far more likely to get absolutely nothing for their efforts.

I do this too, and yet I still have no problem with a more complex or difficult quest that involves the give away of an extremely high tier pixel reward.
I could see the hate here if you thought Ravager was somehow gaining something out of this. From my perspective he is gaining nothing from this, and only loses his personal time and an item worth a lot of plat.

I am wondering if you might have to tell people a general idea when you logged in.
This would make people more diligent knowing you actually on, and would allow you to try to pick a much better hiding spot seeing people would be working hard to find you.
Only recommending this if it goes on past a point you grow tired of hiding. I am guessing it aint too bad if you actually doing stuff in the game though.
Great idea, one of the best events by far due to the sheer simplicity of it, yet effectiveness of making it difficult at the same time.

I doubt Rav will split hairs like that. Evil races are evil races even if they don't worship the most evil gods.

No winners tonight. Was on 6+ hours today, and spent a good deal of time chatting with folks and drinking drinks of my own. Will have another clue Wednesday.

I want to get rid of this thing sooner than later, so here's a clue that should narrow the field: I have blue eyes and brown hair.

The amount of people I've had come up to me or one of my two alts and give me a drink has been impressive (maybe 14 or 15?). Props on this giveaway, Ravager! I like things like this. I've admittedly only given drinks and toasted in an attempt to find you a couple times, but these hints are enticing.

Filbus is a problem. He's always been a problem and the server should not be celebrating him in a jack off thread

I've been found! Aeaolena le`Vowels who searched far and wide found me in my home city of Kelethin. I was playing a level 11 Wood Elf Druid named Mywyn.
This is where she found me:

Then she demanded proof I was me:

Schenanigans, same guild tag?
Aeaolena
02-20-2018, 09:42 AM
No idea. I don't think so. Most old BDA de-tagged 2 years ago when the guild left p1999 and are floating around Norrath in all sorts of new homes now. I'm probably going to need a new home too but I haven't decided how much time I'm willing to commit back into EQ.
I did have the advantage of knowing Ravager probably wasn't full of crap with his contest though, which may have made me more confident handing out a ton of beer? :P
I accept your Congratulations!

Well... if you look at the first screencap you can see that the druid actually tried it against outremer first and said the phrase correctly.
Then she cheered and tried it on you and said it incorrecty due to low alcohol tolerance.
In the original instruction it had to be written out exactly. So pretty gray area...
Another interesting thing is the /who all crushbone which lists you there at the end. So did you gate back to bank? How convenient you gated back at the exact moment vowels was there spamming to people, but also drunk and so incorrectly saying it...
Ravager
02-21-2018, 08:51 AM
The point of the phrase being precise was to trigger my text parser so that I'd see it when I was tabbed out or /afk. She triggered it.
I left Crushbone, because there was some dork taking all the orcs there for PL. That was like 10 minutes before she found me. If you'll notice, young detective, /auc, spells, skills and pretty much all of my spam goes to the right chat window. It can take a while to scroll things up the left when you're not talking to anyone.
If I wanted to give Vowels a fungi tunic, I'd just give Vowels a fungi tunic, because it's easier than arguing with people like you about how I give things away.
Make a contest yourself and giveaway your own shit if you think you can do better. I guarantee there will be 3 or 4 clowns complaining about it.

I was told Las Vegas was in the middle of the freaking desert. It shouldn't have mattered that flip flops have no traction on painted walkways when wet.
With that said, 10/10 would waterski again.

Is Chest returning to P99? Seems to be posting here a lot.
Nah. His gaming time has left for greener pastures, but his heart still lingers for the shitposting.
If any of the Tier 2 guilds need a dormant ambassador though, I have a feeling Chest could be convinced to log in and personally tell his favorite past rivals to fuck off. Although from the looks of RnF, PS seems to have that covered.
