Idea for a new GM event? c:

Just thought I'd put this out there, I guess. I noticed that most of the GM events we have are JQs or joke contests, or something similar. While I don't have a problem with this, I think it'd be cool to add in another event or two, so:

Bob's Shell
Summon 200 green snails in the FM, and 5 Bob the Snails. Whoever finds a Bob shell wins. Amount of summons and prizes can be adjusted accordingly. It would need to be tweaked a bit (maybe removing Bob from deep SW or making sure that people don't already have a Bob shell so they can simply filter out the normal shells), but I did this often on another PS and people had fun.

Comments?

Hmm that actually does sound like an original and fun idea. Those shells look the same right? Except summoning 200 snails.. idk how much good it would do to the ch on top of all the people in it already doing the event. Might crash the channel/map.

I held this event several times in the server I played in. We summoned around 400 snails each time, but they had an excellent dedi so it was never an issue. And the shells do look the same. This would have to be tested out a bit, but I think it would be do-able on a smaller scale.

Hehe, is awesome and original, but I think, is the event not over too fast then? Because 200 snails only, is like 2 mins of killing. I'd recommend hp boosting them then or sorta like that.

The fun part was watching everyone scramble to pick up some shells, LOL. We set a timer at the top, they were usually only given around 2 minutes to kill the snails and then pick up whatever they could. When 2 minutes was up, we cleared the drops.

Ic, Ic, and then you repeated the event?

Not normally. When the event was done, it was done. It was more or less an add on at the end after we had a boss event or some hide and seeks, to give some people another chance at a reward.

Aah, ok. Well thanks for informing me. Well looks fun, +1 support for this suggestion from me.

Bishops will always win. D:

Not really... Arans can hit 12 monsters per hit. Then they have 4 hits in like 1 second. thats maybe 48 in 1 second compared to 15 in like 2. Then DB's have upper Stab etc...

Heh, more competitive, crowded version of a scavenger hunt event.

It's actually a pretty cool idea.
