MotD: Summer Festival Scheduled To Begin Sometime 8/2 to 8/9
And here we are! This betting pool is just for fun. It works mostly like any other pool, with a minor adjustment to deal with the fact that, in Sylestia, it isn't possible to send gold directly to another player. (I am not yet prepared to handle Diamond entries.)
Update, 02Aug24: Since the first possible day of the Summer Festival has arrived, betting is closed. Because unpredictable things occur, prizes will not go out until after the Summer Festival actually begins.
Important update, 07Aug24
1. Decide on what day you think the Summer Festival will actually begin.
2. Post your guess here. Do ping me. And don't PM me. (This is an exception to my usual rule.) Yes, you are allowed to guess a date that does not fall within the range given in the MotD!
3. Immediately before or after posting your guess, send me one or more items that are suitable for being sold back to the game. Examples are a Fairy Mushroom or a piece of Equipment. It is perfectly okay to bet one Fairy Mushroom, but remember, the more you bet, the larger your share of the prize if you are a winner. I will document your guess and your bet and then accept your trade.
I will sell the items to the game to create the Spring Festival Pool. Once the Spring Festival actually starts, I will divide the Pool proportionately among all who guessed correctly. (Since I am still learning how to run a pool, there won't be a vig--that is, I won't get a percentage.) I'll PM each winner to let them know how much they've won. Then each winner mushrooms me for the amount of their prize. I will return the item you send so that you lose nothing when claiming your prize--even Fairy Mushrooms, though I am afraid Piccolo now expects everyone to give him permission to eat them.
Hey, the players are cool like that.
01Aug24: The pool stands at 217,279 gold.
The Summer Festival Pool has surpassed the Spring Festival Pool!
