Hey didja hear?! Earthpop's lookin' fer his lost pet rock! Help us gather up every rock North of the Icefields so's we can find "Rocky"!
What we gonna do:
- Send in suitable rock-like items during the week of Rockbreaker's Ceremony either over PM or CR to Restless.
- Each rock gets added to a big ole heap.
- At the end, just fer fun, we're gonna guess how many we managed to dig up!
- You earn guesses based on how many of them ole stones you turned and sent this way.
- A couple days after Rockbreaker's (by Dec. 5th) is when you get to make your guesses on just how big this pile has grown!
The closest guesses as to how many rock items were sent in, well, wins!
How to Throw Stones:
Add your possible "Rocky"s to the rock pile by sending them in a CR or Private Message. The following items will be accepted and added to the pile:
Every 20 items sent in earns you a guess! (Can be mixed ie 9 Traprocks, 11 Round Pebbles earns you a guess.)
