Thread: The leprechauns are invading ThirdStyle to bring you a special St. Patrick's Day event

    The leprechauns are invading ThirdStyle to bring you a special St. Patrick's Day event

    Top of the morning to ya laddies and lasses, Fáilte chuig an St. Imeacht Lá Pádraig! Along with your day of beer, corned beef and cabbage, ThirdStyle would like to bring you some fun St. Patricks day games.

    Our first game is a scavenger hunt of St. Pattys day images hidden all around the site. Each image has its own stylepoint value, but beware - some have none. Look around the site for these images, and when you find one, take a screenshot of it. Be sure to include the URL where you found the image, and include your username as well. Circle the image in your screenshot so we can be sure you spotted the image. Once you have collected your images, send them to me (Saphira) via PM either in a zip folder hosted somewhere, or up on an image sharing site such as imgur or photobucket.

    Here is an example of what your screenshot should look like:




    For our second event, youre going to need the luck of the Irish on your side. Like the Rotation event, there will be two Irish songs in spirit of the day; the more passes you get, the more entries you get towards winning some style points. A pass on beginner or easy gets you 1 entry, a pass on medium 2, and a pass on hard gives you 3. You are limited to a total of 20 entries (10 per song).

    Two lucky winners will win these mp3 players.



    The drawing for these will be held in ThirdStyle Video Chat at midnight EDT.

    Check out your progress for the mp3 player drawings HERE

    Rules and other information

    * You can only use your main account. If you make an alt in an attempt to gain more stylepoints you will be disqualified and possibly banned.

    *Do not give away the locations of images to other users. If you are caught doing so you will be disqualified.

    *Incomplete screenshots will not be counted. Make sure you include the URL, your username and circle the image you found.

    *PM your images to Saphira either in a zip folder or use an image sharing site.

    *Maximum amount of entries for the drawing is twenty (Ten for each song)

    *Contests will start at midnight EDT March 17th and run till midnight EDT March 18th (24 hours)

    *Drawing for the prizes will be held at midnight EDT on March 18th live in ThirdStyle video chat.


    So grab yourselves a bowl of Lucky Charms and start hunting! Good luck to ya lads and lasses.

    This event looks amazing.

    Someone should make a sexy image for this for FFR siggies so those of us who cross over ffr can advertise a sexy graphic in our siggies that link here.

    So excited. :)

    Also: "A pass on beginner or easy gets you 1 entry, a pass on medium 2, and a pass on hard gives you 3. You are limited to a total of 20 entries (10 per song)."

    Beginner - 1
    Easy - 1
    Medium - 2
    Hard - 3
    ---------------
    Entries - 7

    Check the working on the OP. It might be skewed somewhere.


    Spoiler!

    He decided to change the amount of entries you receive per difficulty, but I'm pretty sure you can add them up to 20 still if I'm not mistaken.

    Like hard 3 times and then a easy/beg pass.

    Just like the rotation contest, you can pass the song multiple times on any difficulty to increase your entries. I wanted to give the dedicated players a greater chance of winning prizes over randoms, but not turn it into a whore-fest so you can focus on the scavenger hunt too. The songs are also shorter (about 1 min and about 3 min).

    inb4 randoms win all the prizes lul
