Not the most original idea, granted, but still fun (I hope). I'm calling a little contest and putting some item mall goodies Semphere passed me and cash up for grabs. To make it a bit more interesting, not just accumulation of items but certain tasks and accomplishments will earn you points, as follows:

moonstone: 5 points
drake egg: 5 points
pan flute: 5 points
tool aid: 10 points
item drop booster: 15 points
heaven stone: 25 points
500 pet experience earned: 50 points
10 reputation earned: 75 points
50 skill points earned: 100 points

Prizes:

First place: 2,500,000 gold, 5 heaven stones, 1 platinum blessed iris and 5 skill pills
Second place: 1,000,000 gold, choice of 1 platinum blessed iris or 3 skill pills
Third place: 500,000 gold, 25 effort scrolls, choice of 1 platinum blessed iris or 2 skill pills

Rules:

• You may level a new character of your own for reputation points.
• Before you are eligible for the contest, you must post here declaring your current reputation, skill points and experience points of all unmounted pets you own.
• Resetting skills to put SP back into your skill pool does not count.
• SP lost through death does not count towards your score unless due a disconnect/error report/power outage/server outage/lag/computer crash, etc. If it's a matter of clumsiness or lost through PvP, that's SP and contest points gone so stay alive.

If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, please post here. The contest ends Sunday 2nd March, 10pm GMT when I'll call everyone to the guild hall to tally up. As the prize giver, I'm exempting myself from the contest: this is all for you guys. :)
