It is said that on one night every year, a legendary group of bandits remove the seal on their treasure cove, a place where pirates across the world show their knowledge of plunder in their adventures around the world to gain access to some of the most prestigious treasures passed down from the pirates of old.  The cove itself can be called from anywhere in the world, but the difficulty is in how.  You see, when the pirates setup the seal, they were rather... intoxicated.  At specific hours of the faithful day (saturday sept 21st), echos of the password will be heard across the world (in Public chat from Katrimi).  These echos will be the secret word to unlock access to one of the legendary treasures... but it will be all scrambled.  The letters of the password will all be in the wrong order.  Each password will be of a word familiar to the lore of Rune-Midgard.  The treasure will be given to the first one who can reply to the echo (or basically, to whisper Katrimi) with the unscrambled secret password.  There are multiple treasures to be won all day this way, however there is no way to know for certain when these echos will occur.
 
This event is an introduction to a very simple event which I'm planning to hold frequently in the future (however, obviously without the pirate theme).  I call it, Ragnamix, a word scramble event where a word or phrase is mixed up and scrambled so that the order of letters is all wrong, and then called out in Public Chat.  The first person to reply to it via whisper to Katrimi will win a prize.  Obviously, the prize this time is more of Drake's legendary treasure.
 
The event will take place all saturday, with random "echoes" heard all day long, at any time.  To know when a secret password is revealed, look for the following in Public Chat:
 
[1.Public][Katrimi]: The echo of a secret code is heard off in the distance:
 
After that will be the scrambled Ragnamix word or phrase which will "unlock" the treasure if it can be unscrambled.  Beware, for each secret code will only work for one player, only the first correct answer will gain the treasure:
 
[1.Public][Katrimi]: The echo ends.  A treasure has been claimed.
 
However, obviously it may take some time for WP staff to deliver your treasure.  Please wait patiently.

Too many repeat winners.  Entering the first so many right answers into a lottery might cut down on it.

IMHO I think it was fair as it was - first to answer correctly got the prize. I was lucky and quick enough to win one time and I am very happy with that :p_smile:   There are lots of different events and comps with different ways of winning, so I think we all have a chance - I can't draw so I'd never win a drawing comp (have you seen my poring? I think the idea was cute tho hehe) and I miss a few things because I'm in a different time zone, so this was one I could properly join in :thx:

 I know some people won more than once and maybe that'll be changed but then with some other comps you find the same peeps win them so :hmm: yaknow....... anywho, one happy camper here! Ooh that reminds me of an old Ro guild...wonder where they are now.....

 

Fun event, thanks Lanie - more please! :p_smile:
