When: The door prizes will begin on Sunday, June 26, at 10 p.m. eastern. The spin for the free ensorcelling will be at 10:30 p.m. eastern.

Where: In Icemule Trace just outside the Sorcerer guild. From Town Center, go N, N, N, N, N, W, SW, NW, N.

Cost: It's free!

There will be 30 door prizes, one per minute, starting at 10:00 p.m. eastern, 30 minutes before the spin for the ensorcelling, which will be at 10:30 p.m. eastern. All you have to do to participate is be present with your item to be ensorcelled.

The winner of the free ensorcelling spin will be treated just like someone who won the high bid in one of my ensorcelling auctions (http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?86901-Nindon-s-Ensorcelling-by-the-Week-Auction). The winner will be entitled to three "weeks" of ensorcelling energy to be used how ever the winner wishes. The ensorcelling will be done immediately after the spin, so the winner will need to have the item (or items) on hand and ready.

I recommend bringing an alternate item to be ensorcelled, in case the first item cannot be ensorcelled or is beyond my abilities. If a potion is needed, I will supply it at no cost. It may take up to 15 minutes to do the ensorcelling, depending on item difficulty, because I will need to put away my door prize supplies and retrieve my ensorcelling enhancives.

If you win the free ensorcelling, you can use up to three weeks of necrotic energy. Any of the following combinations are possible:
(1) One T1.
(2) Two T1s.
(3) Three T1s.
(4) One T1 and one T2 (good choice).
(5) One T1 and one T3.
(5) Two T2s.
(6) One T3.
(7) One T4.
(8) One T5.
Any weeks unused on Sunday evening will be forfeited.

The winner of each door prize will be chosen randomly, and then the winner's door prize will be chosen randomly. It will proceed quickly, with the prizes going out one per minute. If fewer than 30 people show up, then the extra door prizes will go back in my locker. Tell your friends.

I'll be posting a list of the 30 door prizes as I gather them over the coming days.

Is something scheduled to happen in Icemule that evening?

Here are the door prizes I've gathered so far:

a bright red radish (don't remember)
a stylized golden griffin pin (enhancive identifier)
a silver-banded oak ring (bravery?)
a set of pale green double leathers (4x 2-slot fusion with grapple flares, max light)
a crimson satin neckpouch (partially unlocked changing container)

Eight more lockers to check. Surely I will find enough to get to 30.

If I decide a prize isn't good enough, I may pull it and substitute something else. Right now, though, I have to err on the side of inclusion because I don't know what good stuff may or may not be in my other lockers.

It's not for any organization. It's just something I decided to do. All you have to do to participate is show up. There are no costs at all.

I went through another locker:

a plush winged pink pig (doesn't do anything)
a faceted white crystal case (It is an auction item that was actually updated as part of HSN 2015 (https://gswiki.play.net/mediawiki/index.php/Hsn). Contains salt shaker and pepper mill. I hope the winner of this item uses it instead of allowing it to languish as I did.)
a small mechanical device (toy)
a black leather-winged idol (Mystic Focus)
a madly grinning ivory idol (Bravery)
a thick carved ruic wristlet (crystal holder)
a fireleaf runestaff (+10 harness power, unbalance flares)

That's 12. I'm nearly than halfway there. I will do more tomorrow.

Wow, how *nice* is this? We're picking it up for the TownCrier news.

Thanks for sharing with the community!

Can't rep you yet, bud, but very cool of you to put this on.

More door prizes:

a rose-edged ivory and ruby mirror (talking mirror)
an interlocking silver ring circlet (racially restricted enhancive with removable gem)
a gold-plated metal pastry kit (container)
a rune-covered veil iron box (I have no idea why people like these. If you win it, do some research before selling it.)
a thick tarnished brass buckle (pin worn gold ring holder)
a pair of red oak dice (20 sided)
a silver-strung delicate seer-stone (gem holder)
a small unassuming iron can

That brings the list to 20. Just 10 more to go.

Five more:

a rune-etched silver pin (ambush, picking locks enhancive)
a delicate gold alloy earring (aura, logic, influence enhancive)
a pear-cut star ruby band (agility enhancive)
a shadowglass ring
a skillfully carved tart locket

That's 25 out of 30.

I worked out a system for doing the door prizes. If there are 55 or fewer people in attendance, I will draw names. There is no RT for writing names, and I wrote a script that will quickly write down names. If there are more than 55 people, I will spin for the door prizes until there are only a few people left, at which point spinning will become too slow and I will switch to drawing names for the remaining people. The ensorcell at the end will be by spin. Each person may win only one door prize. Everybody will be eligible for the free ensorcelling spin, including people who won a door prize.

Please help spread the word.

SO ... there was a doorprize I saw go by that I really needed! :)

Do I get one shot at it by being there for the RIGHT draw, or if I am lucky enough to get picked do I get to select the door prize of my choice?

... because I don't know a thing about ensorcelling...

Just a reminder that this event will be in Icemule this evening at 10 p.m. eastern time, which is less than an hour from now.

Thanks once again to everybody who participated.

If you see Exkain, tell him that he left without claiming his prize.

Someone actually sent me the wrong room #, and I wasn't intending to be there at all, so if you wanted to redistribute or hold onto that, no worries.
