Let's take a break from all of the wizard doom and gloom for something fun!

I found this pack in a chest the other day and I think it's awesome. The GM who created it put a lot of detail into it and did a really good job with the theme and everything. I love the whole set, it's probably the most awesome thing I've ever found in game, maybe not the most "powerful" item or anything, but definitely the coolest.

Unfortunately I really don't see myself using it very much and I'd hate for it to sit in a locker somewhere so I've decided to raffle it off, hopefully to someone who will give it a good home. As far as I've been able to gather (with the help of everyone on the PC) the pack is an auto skin bundling pack but it's not yet fully unlocked. It has special messaging depending on whether you are putting a dagger/knife into it, any other type of weapon, a skin, and everything else.

You unsheathe the iron skinning knife from one of the rhimar-throated scabbards along the side of your thrak skin pack.
You wipe off the blade and sheathe the iron skinning knife into one of the rhimar-throated scabbards along the side of your thrak skin pack.

You clean the head of your black wooden cudgel and hang it from one of the loops on the side of your thrak skin pack.
You deftly remove your black wooden cudgel hanging from your thrak skin pack and grip it tightly.

You absent-mindedly drop a pale violet riftstone into your thrak skin pack.

You carefully place the troll king hide inside your thrak skin pack, making sure not to damage the hide.

Zests for pack:

rub You brush off the surface of your thrak skin pack, cleaning any grime that may have collected.
tap You reach inside your thrak skin pack, rearranging the contents.

The pack also came with 6 items inside it:

a massive troll king hide -- which as far as I can tell is just a normal troll king hide, but I'm pretty sure it was put in there because of the fire flaring skinning knife that came with it. As I said the theme was awesome
a bundle of blue griffin feathers -- again pretty sure these are just normal feathers you get from skinning griffins, but you can fletch with them to make lightning flaring arrows.
an oblong griffin skull with a large brittle beak -- just a neat looking helm with some zests when putting it on and taking it off
a rusty iron fletching razor -- fletching razor
a scarlet iron skinning knife inset with a fire opal in the pommel -- a 5x fire flaring skinning knife with "Greater Armor and Weapon Moods" with fire ambient messages
a pair of troll hide vambraces scorched at the ends -- 0x steam flaring vambraces, "mood messaging" with steam ambient messages

The theme for this pack is obviously a skinning/fletching pack .

Here is how the raffle is going to be setup! Throughout the day for the next few days I'll have my character, Dreaven, parked at Icemule TC (lich room ID 2300.) Give him 1 smooth stone and you will be entered into the raffle. Only one entry per person. Dreaven won't always be in TC but he'll be there throughout most of the day. I haven't decided when the drawing will be yet but I'll give everyone 24 hours notice before I decide to end the raffle.

Here is more detailed information on all items being raffled:

He mentioned raffle, but if it is going to be an auction:


Very cool find, I suggest you raffle, or auction, it off with the new auction block simucon zested thingie!

Put it to use in game!

My is sadly not unlocked to become a raffle table but I'm sure someone can assist with that.


Basically, a locked version (to put items to be auction on while people bid silvers:

You analyze your auction block and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item type should not change."

The creator has also provided the following information:
The auction block can be used as a tool and prop for setting up your own auctions.
The auction block is LOCKED.

Alteration Guidelines:
The auction block can be altered freely as long as it still reflects being some sort of flat container with an interior and flat upper surface for displaying items for examination.

A gavel is used for messaging which can also be altered, but it must remain a "gavel" and cannot have a long or show.

Usage:
To run an auction: PUT the prize(s) (if desired) on the auction block for your customers to INSPECT and ANALYZE.
PUSH the auction block to toggle between runner-up and non-runner up modes.
BID <amount> block to set the starting bid amount.
POUND the block to begin bidding!
Bidders should BID <amount> block to up their bids.
POUND the block to end bidding.
The winning bidder will get five minutes to return with a note large enough to cover their bid, after which DROPping it in the block will give them the prize(s) you have placed on top (if any).

The profit will be placed inside the block as a note you can extract later.

You can tell that the block is as light as it can get and that its pockets could not possibly get any deeper.

Oh yeah, I should probably mention this restriction.

This is for characters level 10+ only. Sorry, only way to ensure people aren't just creating a bunch of free accounts/characters in order to enter the raffle.

So if your name is drawn you'll have to prove to me you are at least level 10, you can show level on profile I think, right? Or fame list. Something.

All entries must be in by 8PM EST on Sunday. I will be no longer be accepting entries after this time.

Once the winner is announced they will have 48 hours to prove to me they are at least level 10 and thus eligible to win. If they do not or cannot prove to me they are at least level 10 after 48 hours then they will forfeit the prize and I will draw again.

I will allow a little leeway in this 48 hour window if the fault is mostly mine, i.e. I'm busy during this time and not around much.

Okay since I'm a giant noob I apparently introduced a bug into my script last night that could have resulted in people not being added to the list even after handing Dreaven a smooth stone. I fixed the bug and went through my logs to make sure I added everyone who was not automatically added. Please review the list and if your name isn't on the list and you handed Dreaven a smooth stone already then please let me know and I'll recheck my logs to add you if needed.

The raffle is now closed! There are 40 entries into the raffle.

Just to show everyone this is on the up and up and I'm not just picking my favorite person on the list or anything I have chosen a way to pick the winner that takes it completely out of my hands.

The following website is for New York state's "WIN 4" lottery:

http://nylottery.ny.gov/wps/portal/Home/Lottery/home/your+lottery/winning+numbers/win4pastwinning+numbers

Two said lotteries take place everyday, one "midday" and one "evening." Tomorrow's "evening" drawing is going to determine the winner. That's Monday, August 31st, 2015, evening drawing. The evening drawing takes place after 7:30PM EST, I think around 8PM is the drawing. Just the first 4 numbers will be used, not the "Lucky Sum" number, whatever that is.

So there are 4 numbers, each ranging from 0-9, which gives us 10,000 possible combinations but only 40 entries in the raffle so this is how we're gonna do it. Each person is going to be assigned a range of 250 numbers and if one of those numbers is the one drawn tomorrow then that person wins!

Okay. Awesome. Here are the people who entered and their numbers:



1) Rhaegas 0000-0249
2) Cruxophim 0250-0499
3) Khenan 0500-0749
4) Drazio 0750-0999
5) Chaddeaux 1000-1249
6) Rangroth 1250-1499
7) Ortar 1500-1749
8) Giogionni 1750-1999
9) Korwick 2000-2249
10) Cyphier 2250-2499
11) Naraz 2500-2749
12) Pomponius 2750-2999
13) Arkanax 3000-3249
14) Icantator 3250-3499
15) Eudemus 3500-3749
16) Barthollomew 3750-3999
17) Fupius 4000-4249
18) Mogonis 4250-4499
19) Manse 4500-4749
20) Monsoon 4750-4999
21) Maestor 5000-5249
22) Neshira 5250-5499
23) Arrays 5500-5749
24) Grifis 5750-5999
25) Ilande 6000-6249
26) Laelithonel 6250-6499
27) Fealoke 6500-6749
28) Jiggery 6750-6999
29) Serenwy 7000-7249
30) Vidos 7250-7499
31) Pokery 7500-7749
32) Iekid 7750-7999
33) Sorsil 8000-8249
34) Wlove 8250-8499
35) Siwas 8500-8749
36) Neovik 8750-8999
37) Gieldusa 9000-9249
38) Taernath 9250-9499
39) Elvynn 9500-9749
40) Ferliev 9750-9999


Winner will have 48 hours to prove to me they are at least level 10. If winner cannot prove to me within 48 hours that they are at least level 10 then they will forfeit the prize and I will draw again.

I reserve the right to disqualify the winner if I suspect cheating or tomfoolery of any kind.
