Current EST time is: http://www.clocklink.com/clocks/5007-green.swf?TimeZone=EST&

The "Rune Scape Extreme Leveling Contest" begins April 20th 2009.

The prize is a 3-month ($20 USD) pre-paid membership gift card, good toward RuneScape, or any other game listed at the Ultimate Game Card website!

Rules of Contest:

1) At 12:00AM USA EST, on April 20th 2009, the entire world shall be informed of the "tag" to include for the start of their entry into this contest.
(Example: If the tag is "z99", you must create a new account starting with "z99", and follow that with as much of your primary account name that fits. If you main is "SkilLife" then you would enter this contest as "z99_SkilLife".)

2) The first account to get ANY non-membership skill level ranked in the hiscores page on RuneScape shall win.

3) You shall NOT use your current account for this contest. You shall be issued an account name in which YOU yourself must register at the time the contest begins.
(Review Rule 1 of contest for full details.)

4) Anti-Macro: Any persons involved in this competition are subject to checks, in order to prevent cheating such as automation or away-from-keyboard. As such, ALL accounts used in the competition MUST remain with their "private" chat set to "on" at all times.

5) You do NOT need to currently be a member of RuneScape in order to win. You do, however, need to inform the clan-chat channel of "Catherby_9" the moment in which you have earned a ranked skill on the hiscores for your contest account.

6) This event spans across multiple websites and clans (cannot name those here), so there WILL be a great deal of competition amongst other RuneScape players, on a world-wide scale. As such, be sure to check to daily on the RuneScape forum topic posted by "Catherby_9" labeled "Extreme Leveling Contest" to see the current progress of all participants.
(When the winner is located, the account name shall be posted in response to the contest thread on the Runescape forum. So check back daily.)

7) To enter this contest, be active at the RuneScape forum topic "Extreme Leveling Contest" on April 20th 2009, at 12:00 USA EST. To claim your prize, you must log in to the clan chat channel "Catherby 9" to notify us of your hiscore-ranked F2P-skill level. The name of the winner will be posted to "Extreme Leveling Contest" (and "W9HQ") on the RS Forums, and a video interview with the winner shall be released for YouTube and MySpace.

May the fastest and smartest skiller win. And goodluck 'scaping, everyone!

Be aware, and I cannot stress this ENOUGH. This competition is NOT for NGoR members only, nor is it centered around our forum for any prizes granted or winners chosen. It is merely means for us to generate some new recruits to the source of RuneScape's world 9 and 14 HQ, after the stuff Jagex pulled back in December 2007, with the removal of our greatest event ever, the holiday Drop Parties of F2P world 14.

As such, we have been seeking new means in order to give back to the community at RuneScape, something that no other fan website of this game ever thought of, something that would actually both help the economy of the membership worlds, and generate a little more addicts from the newer or perhaps younger audience of the game, to one day become the next N0vaLyfe or Zezima. Who knows, aye?

But view the list at the front page of thread, and you can see how world-wide this contest is, from all the locations this event has been mentioned. And just to think, there can be only ONE victorious in this competition. And that is the first mention in the clan chat channel of Catherby_9, which get through to my inbox here at NGoR, thanks to the forwarding inbox mention of one of our ranked chat members whom also own a forum account here. That is, unless I happen to be home from work, and on the clan-chat, at the time a winner makes himself known by signing in and giving us a heads up to check for his/her name in the hiscores of RuneScape.

Read on, if you are still interested in registering for this contest, which begins on April 20th 2009, at 12AM EST (sharp).

Good old memories of October 2007, the last holiday that Jagex actually allowed us to gather donations and drop something for a holiday event at world 14.

Now we finally got something Jagex can't ruin, and it all comes directly from my pocket to fund, rather than waiting around to accept donations through a website for items in a game and meeting up with various members of NGoR and allied clans, to list and label every name that gave which items when and where.

This is all me now, funding the world's largest scale event for F2P. Let's hope to get some good video coverage out of my money's worth, and for a handful of worthy new recruits to us at home world 9, from those whom win the competitions for free membership.

And same as with the old drop holidays we hosted at NGoR, I just spent the last 3 hours posting this event to every forum of the world. Might get a few people that actually view it, and a few to attend this event on April 20th.


Advice to the Wise

I won't give advise the other websites on the following. But I shall grant some unfair advantages to the members of NGoR. So read below for some useful tips to get the added edge over the competition. And if you have your own advice for others, feel free to post it here, for this type of event.

  1. Know the Requirements
    Only the best 2000000 accounts of RuneScape make their way in the hiscores pages. Knowing this, you can search for the skill you wish to train, and see what level/experience is required in order for you to be ranked at the hiscores. (Skills in red don't qualify for this contest.)

    Overall: 745
    Attack: 59
    Defence: 52
    Strength: 61
    Hitpoints: 59
    Ranged: 48
    Prayer: 37
    Magic: 49
    Cooking: 51
    Woodcutting: 59
    Fletching: 30
    Fishing: 53
    Firemaking: 44
    Crafting: 40
    Smithing: 42
    Mining: 51
    Herblore: 30
    Agility: 30
    Thieve: 30
    Slayer: 30
    Farm: 30
    Runecrafting: 30
    Hunter: 30
    Construction: 30
    Summon: 30

  2. Solo Skills, Opposed to Dual Skills
    If you plan to get to hiscore in Cooking the fastest, while it requires Fishing, or left-over meat from combat encounters, to get experience for the skill. It may actually benefit you in the contest. Choosing a skill that requires more than clicking and waiting, like Woodcutting, Fishing, and Mining, might actually mean far less worked on that skill. The common skills always have higher level requirements to qualify for the hiscores list. Take the road less traveled.

  3. 2 Experience Lamps for Free
    Right after you exit Tutorial Island, be sure to do quest "Learning the Ropes". Go north to the small house, down into the basement, and talk to the White Knight. Offer to kill the dragon for him, and you shall be handed 2 experience lamps.

  4. Quests Boost Stats
    Quests offer easy ways to boost stats in a shorter time span. Such if you aim to get ranked at hiscores for Cooking, you would probably head to Lumbridge Castle and speak to the Cook, in order to earn some added Cooking levels from completion of quest "Cook's Assistant". If you are working toward the hiscore in Magic, check out quest "Witch's Potion". And RuneCrafting is easily leveled through "Rune Mysteries", a pre requisite for the skill itself.

Shame you don't have a fan group on facebook to advertise this event on. They get over 100million hits a day. I'm sure a few of them would be runescape fans.

Nice idea btw. Um, who's gonna be checking in with the contestants?
2264 levels. Still no 99's (but getting closer)

Lady Di: Won't have to. I make the hard part my spending my hard-earned cash on the prizes.

Once the first person gets ranked in RuneScape for ANYTHING that isn't cheated through a membership server (F2P stats ONLY), they must enter clan channel Catherby_9 to claim their prize. And only the FIRST person to announce they have earned a ranked stat, and actually get checked by one of the members of clanchat at our channel, and inboxed/notified to me (hopefully I will be home and not at work at the time this occurs) shall win.

After that, all I have to do is private chat that user in game with the scratch off back of card code, they can then go to any of over 300 games, or just go to the RuneScape website, and click "Payment Without Credit Card" and "Ultimate Game Card" and just punch in the code I tell them.

Acker, you are officially a member of the Veterans. One of the few honorable warriors that have greatly effected the way I play. For 3 years, you taught me great lessons, and I have come to think of you, as one of the greatest people I have come across. ~ The Dark Within

Wow, you all should see the flame war they started at N0vaLyfe's forum ( http://z6.invisionfree.com/N0valyfe_RS/ind...?showtopic=9811 ), all because I posted a free event. No wonder nobody goes to that site anymore... actually reminds me of the decline found through N9F.

TheDrkWithin: Yeah, perhaps someone will take the advice posted at RuneScape Community, and buy membership on a new account, just to in 3 months prepaid.

But you know F2P skills better than anyone. I bet if you entered you would be the best, if not close to it.
