Christmas Giveaway 2023
When?: December 25th (Unless done on 24th)
Timewise: Most likely around the evening hours EST
Festive Theme?: Something that'll make old Saint Nick crack a smile (Red and White)
Well, formatting and decorating aside, I hope y'all are having a nice holiday this year. And just like every year since I've started doing these, it's that time of year once more, the Annual Christmas Giveaway! Hopefully I can squeeze it in during the events that will be planned by our lovely staff during that weekend, but I suppose where one can't win in one event, they have another shot within another. Anyways, without further ado, I shall give the quick rundown on the events that'll be happening!
Hide-n-seek:
Similarly to that of the Halloween Giveaway that occurred 2 months ago, I will be hiding within the world of Gielinor from various cities, visiting the local residencies to give them a bit of holiday cheers! The hints will be provided over yell and just like every year, there will be the same requirements
- Upon finding the host at the current hiding spot, participants will have to trade the host
- Once the trade has been confirmed, the participants will be asked whether or not they've been "Naughty" or "Nice"
The Host will then reward the player with the corresponding reward within the inventory
Reminder: "Naughty" or "Nice" doesn't mean that the reward will correspond with the answer, it's a 50/50 chance of being an item worth of great or little value, regardless it is free money
Hide-n-seek will continue for at least 14 rounds, with some Races sprinkled within, may Saradomin bless your shoes of choice to dash across the pixels to find the host
After Hide-n-seek:
Loot Crates:
So aside from one particular interest's towards the "Loot Crates" that I had done during the Halloween Giveaway, I will attempt to do it again.
There will be a few (5?) "Crates" that will be hidden within a random location, players must search the location in question to "find" (Trade) the hidden crates to receive the reward hidden within.
What will be inside these "Loot Crates" you ask?
- Answer: I have no idea! Will it be a ton of gold? Perhaps a giant sword? Even a bucket helmet to put Plankton to shame?! Nobody knows!
Cyphers?:
Still debating on this, but basically I take the name of an NPC and scramble the name. The players will have to use a bit of brain power, unfortunately yes, to unscramble the word to find out the name. Afterwhich the player must go to that NPC to trade the host who's waiting
- May include Locations but I would like some feedback on this, if I find a website to scramble the words, just maybe I'll give it a experimental shot here before deciding whether or not to keep the idea.
Donations:
Yes I will be taking donations regarding the Christmas Event, it can be either cash or items, I will either keep them in the bank or put it on my alt account until the Giveaway starts
- Will I be personally asking for donations? No, they should be of the player's own willingness, I will ask a few friends online but other than that, you can pm me ingame regarding donations
Chase's Notes: That's the last event of mine for this year, so I will start rebuilding for the next cycle of giveaways and until then, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years!
- Also my Birthday is coming up in exactly 2 weeks so *Pops an early Party Cracker*
