Part 3: The D'Kana Medieval Gauntlet and Western HoeDown!

Within the next week, the final part of the gauntlet shall commence. After which those who have been through all three stages will be named, and rewarded.

So not to exclude those who have just found out about the gauntlet, new people may also enter the gauntlet event. Each individual event/stage will also have its own winner which will also be announced.

This event will be in the form of 2 server reservations within the next two weeks. One EU friendly time. One U.S friendly time. The events on the server will be available for all to take part in and spectate and will mimic events commonly associated with medieval times or the wild west.

At this point I'd like to thank the JAK+ team for helping me arrange and organise these events. It wouldn't have been possible to continue the gauntlet without them!

Please register your interest in this event by posting below so we have an ideas of the sort of numbers to expect :)

Event #1: Swoop Bike Joust

Event #2: Shooting a "Tin can"

Event #3: Best "Wild west" or "Medieval" profile picutre and name.

More event information to follow...

Good hunting guys!

Just took my ethics final today. Guess what was at the end for extra credit? Riddles! There was a variation of the mountain riddle. Little more complex (this is ethics of course heh), but still similar.

Ahhh dont worry, this isnt really typical english. If i had to guess id say it was in the form of a type of Japanese poem known as "Haiku"(although some may argue not strictly)...which is mostly irrelivant.

Take each as a seperate clue and just ignore the funny language. Hope that isnt too much of a give away :)

i dunno maybe thats just me, but questions based on the play of words are a bit too difficult.

i hope others will be a bit more lucky than me.
