Interesting event, but I can't act like InspectorShameless/Uber_Kalimero, so I'll have to sit this one out. :lol:

Name : Phelim
Level 75
About my personnal types of idiocy (far too numerous to describe them all) :
*As soon as a player is approaching him with a "I wana talk wit u" behaviour, he tries to escape as quick as possible. If the person follows him, he tries to use the zone-transition lag to make the other late, and then hide behind a tree.
*Is convinced that an invisible GM is following him everywhere... Wait a minute... HAAA! THEY ARE BEHIND ME WITH BASEBALL BATS!

Enchilado, I was very pleased with your role-playing Saturday morning (GMT morning). Regardless of who the winner will be in the end, you have certainly earned your reward for trying. :D (the winner will get both the reward for trying and the winner's prize, the others will only get the reward for trying)

Now I really look forward to seeing Phelim and sugarcorgit in action.

Role-playing? You... you didn't believe... I should have known. The police never believe me either... at least Her is safe. We don't want to get banned. I thought... you were on my side... you... you didn't...

~I thought you believed me!

P.s.

Sorry it didn't quite match what I said I'd do on the forum. I'd forgotten what I said and the forum was under attack, but I think what I actually did was better anyway.

I just wanted to write "I already won" but two people I don't know already did it. :(

Hmm, I'd like to participate in this one. I like the idea :)

My idiot act will be that I feel threatened by all other female characters. They just *might* have a better wardrobe than I do. And the fact that I don't have the insta-outfit change makes me very envious/jealous of those who do, which makes me act really really odd. Therefore I switch outfits frequently but slowly while trying to control the nasty jealous impulses... lord knows what I will say or do!

Hope to see you in-game Vink!

I'm going on holiday for about seven weeks... until September 25th or so, I think. I won't be here when the competition ends, so I'd like to say now: thanks for the idea, Vink. Something to do is always good, and I enjoyed being an idiot, even if it wasn't what I said I was going to do.

~hope you get some good contenders!

A month has passed and it's time to announce the winner. By the way, as much as I appreciate matt's acts of idiocy in the forums, I'm not sure he would have won this in the game, even if he'd tried.

Now let's focus on those who did try. Here is a summary of what they seemed to be doing:
  • Enchilado brought me on a rescue mission to save Her from Them, so that the Devs wouldn't ban us all.
  • Slicer commanded an invisible submarine in invisible waters.
  • Phelim suffered from serious GM paranoia and didn't trust anyone.
Thanks to all three of you! It was very entertaining.

... and the winner is...

Enchilado! For using the Doctor more or less like a ventriloquial figure and bringing me from Hurnscald, through some dangerous paths in the new mines, to the Where (for some reason it looked exactly like Hurnscald...) where Them were found, and then back again (through the same paths) to Hurnscald. That was a lovely act of adventurous idiocy à la Don Quijote. :mrgreen:

I have rewards for all three of you, please contact me about that.
