Sakura Island Find Me! [/center] Where am I? Come find me! This is an event concerning hide-and-seek, but a little more complicated. I have taken ten pictures in Sakura Island, your job is to find the coordinates of the picture I took, take your own screenshot, and post it up in a PM to me. I'll explain how to do everything thoroughly. In case I don't have your attention yet, there will be a GOLD CASH PRIZE for the top three winners of the event.
First things first. All levels can participate in this event, from level 1 to 75. How to get to Sakura Island? First go to a portal and teleport to Aven. Find the area between the Love Oracle and the Auction House. There will be an NPC named <Sakura Teleport Agent> Takahashi (Click me! to see). This area is behind the large fountain in Aven. After talking to her, she will teleport you to Sakura Island.
Once there, it's free game. There are 10 different locations around the whole map where I have taken screenshots. You must find these locations, and angle your camera to best match the image. I am posing in some of the images, you do not need to pose. Take a screenshot, and along with the coordinates, post up your image. Your entry should look like this:
Picture Name 1 Coordinates (img)yourscreenshot(/img)
Picture Name 2 Coordinates (img)yourscreenshot(/img)
And so on.
"Picture Name #" Indicates which picture you're replicating. Each image has a name, use it. "Coordinates" indicates your player coordinates, which are to be written in a ###X; ###Y Format. "(img)yourscreenshot(/img)" implies your screenshot. Screenshots can be found under C: > Aeria Games > Eden Eternal > ScreenCapture.
To post the picture, simply take the direct link (You get it when you upload) and put (img)directlink(/img) around it, replacing the ( and ) with [ and ] brackets. If the images do not work, I will reply to you and let you know and offer some suggestions. You may also just give me a link to send me to the picture. You will be docked points if I get a virus. :c
Suggested Photo Upload Sites:
To submit your entries, mail me by clicking this button:
It is important to note that you must have an account on the forum in order to mail me. If you post your entry in this thread, it will be deleted, and if you don't give me the information I ask for above, your entry will be disqualified.
The first three people with the most correct entry will win the prizes. Yes, this is the important part, the prizes!
Total Pot: 2,000g
First Place Prize: 1,000g Second Place Prize: 600g Third Place Prize: 400g
Excited yet? Good!
The pictures will not be posted until the 12th to prevent cheating. They will then be up for 48 hours and the event will close midnight on the 14th. All entries must be MAILED to me during that time; late entries will not count.
You will be graded on two things.
1. Photo Accuracy [/u]: The location and angle must be as close as possible. Do not worry about trying to match my pose, it is not important. 2. Coordinates: While I don't expect you to find my EXACT coordinates, you will be graded on how close you are. Why does this matter? It helps ensure that it's not a similar looking location on another part of the map, and that it is the actual location where the picture was taken. The pictures will be posted in a reply post to this thread when the time comes. Comments will be disabled until after the event begins. At the end of the event, the three winning entries will be posted.[/color][/blockquote]

Thanks for the prize and congratulations to all participants! ^^
I've learned that an Ursun doesn't see the world exactly the same way as a Halfkin does. xD I hope we get this kind of events again in the future. I liked this one very much.
