Nyphur	Posted - 2006.05.07 17:18:00 - [211] Edited by: Nyphur on 07/05/2006 17:22:30 Originally by: FireFoxx80 Also heavily weighted towards those who know thei eve history. I think that was the point of the event :). If I didn't know Burn Eden, I'd swear they were planning on spending that isk making their own celebratory event like giving it away as prizes in little competitions and such. If I had just been given a few billion, I guarantee I'd be planning how to give most of it away. When I make isk in eve, I either save it for something I want or give it away to friends who can't afford what they want. I have this one corpmate that I've given the better part of half a billion to over the year or so they've been playing ^^;. Eve-Tanking.com - For the ultimate tanking spreadsheet and resources.

Gerome Doutrande	Posted - 2006.05.07 20:13:00 - [215] I had hoped you'd get some T2 stabs, now all that is missing is the Burberry texture for the monument.
Imiarr Timshae	Posted - 2006.05.07 21:32:00 - [216] Good one guys. I had 7 of the answers correct, and two more which i think you will like, but were drastically wrong. 10 A highly dangerous place youÆll find the next clue hidden away close to the diamond ace This i beleived was the Mercenary Colition because of the cards that are in thier members sigs, and they have only one system under their soverinty, so i thought it must be there. I thought this was incredibly cool, that the Event would be based around the players choice of sig, sadly i was wrong This idea was then reasserted by : 8 Fast deployment and swift results theyÆll work for whoever pays a night stalkers honor heavily weighs on the orders he gets and obeyÆs As the Mercenary Colition. I also lacked the ability to go to the places i found, sadly, but it was doomed to failure from the start :P It all went horribly wrong somewhere /o\ -Imiarr-
Shin Ra	Posted - 2006.05.07 22:55:00 - [217] Imiarr: Those were some of the first things we looked at. For the Diamond Ace one, we went to Sarum Prime. HQ of The Corporation (the Ace of Diamonds in the MC banner). For the other one, Heinky went down to the MC outpost. Luckily he was already in the area scanning every system in the GEP constallation. He also went past 37s-k0 (home of the two Sansha corps) for another one of the questions. On his way back up he also went to ISS Margins to check for #2. I spent most of my time running around empire to various systems. It was awesome when we were down to the last question (#6). I was in convos with most of the other groups talking to them. Nobody else had #6, one or two other groups had all the rest tho so we were hurrying the whole way. I remember going through BWF on my way to LS-JEP, passing two bubble gatecamps and then running out of instas. I made my way up and we were still researching backstory for the question. We were totally out of ideas. I jumped into LS-JEP and hit scan. A bunch of secure cans came up but no "You have found a ...". I thought we must have been wrong. I double checked my overview settings and found large collidable object wasn't selected. So I scanned again and there it was. The rest of BE were fighting NFC all day so it was just me and Heinky on our TS. We were literally screaming like a bunch of girls when we got it. I had the email ready to send and quickly typed in the last letter and explanation. I made about 6 spelling mistakes while doing this. But we got it away and waited...... 3 hours later I come back to the pc and there is an email saying we won..... Good times.
Zarithas	Posted - 2006.05.07 23:15:00 - [218] Cool. Do you think you could tell us the exact answers/explanation for each of the riddles, or at least some of them? I can't make sense of any of them. =/ -------------------------------- Joria Klex > it's sad really cuz i know for a fact i would utterly destroy u all in RL combat
w0rmy	Posted - 2006.05.08 00:10:00 - [219] Originally by: Nyphur Originally by: Idara What a short third anniversary event. Could've had something that a few more people could actually participate in. Agreed. People who weren't around in the first hour or two didn't stand a chance and a large portion of eve didn't even find out about it until it was already over. Would ahve made more sense to give a time limit of a week on the event and then pick the name of the winner from a hat. The way they did it, it was mostly down to being in the right place at the right time (on the forums when it was announced). I went to bed, woke up and it was over Of course people whine, its cause your sig sucks

Serafini	Posted - 2006.05.08 02:02:00 - [221] Hahaha Warp core stab to burn eden, how conveniable What's the stats? -2? -3? Seems that Burn Eden dream camed true :P
Spoken Gun	Posted - 2006.05.08 04:21:00 - [222] All right, can we get a full list of the riddles, with their answer and explanation below each one? I am deeply interested to know the answers.
Eiko	Posted - 2006.05.08 06:45:00 - [223] I have to whine a bit on this event... As you know EVE went 3 years old, why the beep do you host a contest in its honor? Seriously you should have been celebrating that the game turned 3 and that is thanks to every pilot playing the game. So having a contest, and a very limited one since it was over quite fast imo and not everyone most likely even read about it before it was over. I think you should have done something that EVERY pilot would have benefited from rather than just two people (the winners) and held this type of event later on. And no I am not whining just because I didn't win, I am whining because throwing a birthday party where only like 40% of the eve population gets affected is so wrong. You should have done something in line of the jove parts, or snowballs for the 3 year anneversery, not this!

Smagd	Posted - 2006.05.08 08:36:00 - [226] Edited by: Smagd on 08/05/2006 08:36:54 Sigma, and Congratulations to the lucky winners! Also, nice event LeMonde. I agree for a 3rd birthday something about the history of EvE is appropriate. To those who - like me - thought they wouldn't stand a chance to win it (HED-GP, oh really, sorry count me out, hehe): Don't be a sore loser. There's gonna be more chances to stand out, and besides, who wants a WCS T2 anyway!? Edit for clarity: Besides: You try to create a good competition that's the same difficulty for all players. It's damn hard. Fly far, Smagd PS: Damn, I got one more reason to avoid Jita now... do

Norris Neophitus	Posted - 2006.05.12 12:34:00 - [228] So we arent even gonna get and answers for the riddles, ok i missed the competition didnt know it had happened till the next day. I'm still intrested too know the answers behind the riddles i can figure myself. Been playing a while now and i wish i'd had time to take part. maybe next year can we have a competition that lasts 24h+ I know i wont win next year either, havent picked up enough history of eve, anyone care to teach me a bit of the history. But yeah bigger longer competion next time guys. Maybe with several areas rather than just a bunch of ridles or even 4 competitions as the next one will be celebrating 4 years
Berak FalCheran	Posted - 2006.05.12 14:30:00 - [229] Originally by: w0rmy I went to bed, woke up and it was over Yeah well, I knew nothing of it, logged on and found out it was over :-P YOU LOVE THE BLINKING
Shin Ra	Posted - 2006.05.12 14:42:00 - [230] For the last time, THE ANSWERS ARE ON THIS THREAD Look through all the pages for a big long post by me and you will see them.
Nova Strikes	Posted - 2006.05.13 01:19:00 - [231] Edited by: Nova Strikes on 13/05/2006 01:20:23 Actually this makes me feel way better about you and Heinky, although tbh some of your corpes have rubbed me up far to much in local for me to even contemplate not throttling them if i got the chance. Ye good on you, guess i'll go back to respecting you a little more like when Xetic died and the first war dec came.(or when ever it was) As for the rest of your Corp... interdictor ftw!!! i know what am i sayin, its not that he won, its the way he won i guess...er.. ye i'll go hang myself
Teh Doylan	Posted - 2006.05.19 18:30:00 - [232] Originally by: Double TaP Originally by: Bagdh Dearg 3 Billion Isk a piece, A WCS II and a Statue in jita. LoL Burn Eden got WCS II. LOL, the irony, now you need 14x warp jammers.
Khuri	Posted - 2006.05.26 20:49:00 - [233] LeMonde anychance i could pay you, like 20 euros if you just happend to send all the answers to me, in a e-mail? No? Well, I may have to think on this one.
Copine Callmeknau	Posted - 2006.07.03 08:43:00 - [234] Sorry about the necro, but I didn't want to make a new thread for a pointless bit of information. It might be vaguely interesting for some people. NT15Q0P3NQ3 = NT-15Q [Constellation in the closed north east section of space] Opens in Quarter 3 Yes I'm bored ------- See the idiot walk, see the idiot talk

Nice clue within a clue though.
