Posted September 15, 2018 We Are Live! Screenshots Spoiler Main Impalong Structure Spoiler Entrance First Floor Second Floor Third Floor Freedom Inn Spoiler Entrance First Floor Middle Floors Top Floor Blackmoor Arena Spoiler Entrance Arena Floor Spoiler Item Placement: Name your items before placing them into improvement/casting coffins or forges! Double-check which coffin or forge you should place your items in, and place them there. Pick up your finished item as soon as possible to make space for new items. If space is running short, Impalong staff will move finished items to "Overflow" bins. You will need to contact Impalong staff in order to retrieve your items from "Overflow" bins. Improvements/Enchanting: Quality items are improved to is at the discretion of the imper, but the minimum is 70ql. If you want higher than 70ql, then arrange that via PM with an imper. Only items that are 70ql+ will be cast on(unless they are skiller items). Place your items into the coffin labeled with the enchantment you want. YOU are responsible for moving the items to other coffins to receive additional enchantments. Getting your items enchanted is at your own risk! Other: Do NOT sell items that you've gotten improved/enchanted. The pro-bono work done here is not so you can make a profit, so if that is your intention you are not welcome here. Do NOT abuse the system by placing in duplicates to get improved/enchanted. If that occurs the items are forfeit, and will be confiscated then tossed into the volcano out back(yes, we have one). Contact Shrimpiie or an Impalong Staffer if you wish to be assigned a room. Turn OFF your personal lightsources like lanterns or torches! It helps reduce lag. If you have any questions/concerns contact Shrimpiie ingame or on the forums.

Spoiler Morrowen: Maybe this year instead of doing the The Wurmian Tournament of Carnage! weight brackets based on fight skill. To make it more fair base them on total /playtime Answer: I feel as though pure fighting skill is a much better measure of ability over /playtime, as I can think of many many folks who spent most of their time grinding or building, and not out fighting, who would be at a massive disadvantage if placed in higher tiered brackets with say PvP tier accounts. At the end of the day there really is no solid way to determine fair fighting ability across all players, so basing it on a simple fighting skill number is about the best that can be done. Belacane: How does that work? Do I need to sign up as an imper to help? or do I just show up? Or..? Answer: Nope! This is just a public list showcasing how many folks have already made it a plan to go and improve but by no means is it restrictive. Anyone is free to come and imp at all levels anything regardless of this list and everyone is as well free to get anything they bring imped as well. MayorSmurf: Do I need to book a room at the event? Also is there a Discord channel for this event Answer: If you want a room then yes let me know and I will assign you one. As for a discord I haven't had one in the past(though I recall someone did take it upon themselves to make one) but I will look into making an official one of sorts. Neville: What is your stock of steel like? Do you have high QL steel on hand to push items up to 91ql? Can I have my own forge assigned to me? This worked well for me at Lunalong. Answer: Impalongs usually improve to only 70ql not 90ql, so I only have a true stock of 70ql steel on hand. I might have a little bit of 90ql steel in my warehouse but I would need to check on that. As items can be worked on by anyone regardless of their skill, all forges are open to anyone to improve at(someone with lower skill could just improve an item as high as they can and someone with higher skill takes over for instance). So it would kind of go against the spirit of the Impalong to bar others from working at a station Discord Link to the Blackmoor Christmas Impalong 2018 discord! https://discord.gg/cpyrdg 22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 15, 2018 We are back baby! Plenty of updates and some minor changes but if anyone has suggestions I am more than happy to discuss them. Updates: October 13th Spoiler First and formost, the timer is up now, and we have just under 2 months until the Impalong starts! Secondly, I am looking for chefs that have a good handle(pun intended) on the cooking system and able to check out the Impalong cookhouse and make recommendations or even outfit it as needed(I'd be footing the bill of course) to be up to snuff with today's level of cooking. Thirdly, I am always fielding more ideas for games/events, even more so for folks that want to plain host their own game/event at the Impalong so write here or send me a PM and we can discuss options. Fourthly, we have over a MILLION favor this year in the form of 200,000 veggies at 100ql. I expect that will suffice the crazy appitites of the priests and if it doesn't we might have to ramp it up next year to a reasonable 10-million. Updates: November 26th Firstly, the thread overhaul is DONE. I really hope you guys enjoy it! Secondly, let all of your friends, your neighbors, your dog! know about this Impalong, I want everyone to come and have an amazing time! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 16, 2018 I'll ofc not come this year either as I feel a community event like Impalong should not be highjacked by a GM year after year, despite the fact he is also a player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2018 I see no hijacking here Cecci; anyone at all is free to host Impalongs anywhere they choose at any time of the year they choose; even if it's simultaneous with this one. And I've seen more than one at the same time before as well. The purpose of impalongs after all is to help players getting into the game, or just help players in general, as well as to have fun. Does it really matter who hosts them? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2018 I remember there being multiple impalongs in years past. Some starting at the same time. It's actually nice to know there's a yearly one still around. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
