New retcon contest - completed!

Post by Harry Dresden »

Thanks to Thorak for the idea. This contest begins on the 15th to give people time to complete current runs and position themselves to begin the contest at the same time as others.

Contest - Complete 4 No Items/No Skills runs, 1 for each class. I don't care what order you do them in, or what other restrictions you choose.
First run can begin no sooner than August 15th. Once you complete your last run, post on the thread and I'll verify and award your prize.

1st Prize - Thorak- Subscriber's Jacket (or 10 stars)
2nd Prize - bmara - 3 stars
3rd Prize - Sykzen - 2 stars

Somewhat, I suppose. Hell, if there are only 3 of you competing for it then you can take all the time in the world.

So just out of interest, who else is taking part?

I'm planning on taking part even though I suck at speed runs. Hell, I came 6th out of 6 in Harry's Maso contest.

But sounds like fun. :D

I would, but this vest run is taking longer than anticipated.

Cris, you can give us all a head start, join us later and still be in the top 3. Don't know how you manage it :)

Your timing is horrible. I just did this on Skippy. 4 Grimdarks, each took 8 days. And considering I didn't run turns on my days off, everyone's got a target, now!

I'm a little late to the party here, but, why not? I can give this a shot. More specifically, my retconning alt "Raccoon" can give this a shot. Is that okay?

It's not my contest, but I don't see why it wouldn't be okay.

I have to admit you guys are moving along a bit faster than I expected. I think Sykzen and Thorak should be finishing their first runs today, as well.

If so I think I may have to wave goodbye to any chance of a prize. Hopefully finish first run tomorrow and I'm only likely to slow down due to a holiday in Spain (yay!) without internet (boo!).

Good luck everyone!

It actually looks like your first run started before the 15th, bmara. Someone let me know if I'm looking at that wrong. I'm freaking tired right now, so I wouldn't be surprised if my mind is playing tricks on me.

I guess I was thinking that rollover would move the date up, but perhaps not.
