August 28 2005 3:32 PM EDT
$25k for the first person to tell me what there is so finally! about it :D
in other words:
- something finally has happened.
- you have to guess what it is.
- 1 guess per player per hour.
- hints can be bought (for 5k/p) and will be added to the pot.

The girl you've always dreamed of can finally and now officially be called Shade's Girlfriend?
AdminShade

Well to be honest...
You're all wrong!

There has been a 1 million MPB.
AdminShade
August 28 2005 4:05 PM EDT
which is old news already, also wrong :)
IndependenZ
August 28 2005 4:14 PM EDT
This is not a guess, just a small clarification: I wasn't trying to be mean.
I'm sorry if it came across that way. My apologies.
wldflr
August 28 2005 4:27 PM EDT
Wasn't directed towards you at all :) Just mean ol' Bullet ;)

rofl @ indy, geintje joh! :)
You are finally back off holiday for good!
IndependenZ
August 28 2005 5:15 PM EDT
My second guess is that you finally were able to buy your very own car! =D
No offense against people who don't have a car of their own. I'm not trying to be mean. :p
{CB3}-HR22
August 28 2005 5:21 PM EDT
You finally got high speed internet?
I bet you already have it...dont you
AdminShade

nope, nope, nope

This isn't something related to you wanting GL's baby girl named after you is it, Shadie? ;)

did bartjan have something to do with it? I quote from rangers thread....

u finally reached 600k score?
AdminShade
August 29 2005 4:34 AM EDT
no, that was after i made the contest :P
no, school sucks, why should i be happy about that?
no, bartjan has nothing to do with it.
no, someone already guessed 650k score and that wasn't it :)
contest still running :)

August 29 2005 5:13 AM EDT
Then I'll try and make a third guess: I think the summer in the Netherlands has finally begun!
No more rain and cold days, but sunshine! Finally!
AdminShade
August 29 2005 5:15 AM EDT
wrong, only a hand full of people have been remotely close to 'what is finally'...
CoolWater
August 29 2005 5:24 AM EDT
finally you are in Lorien Realm.
AdminShade
August 29 2005 5:27 AM EDT
have been in lorien for quite some time now i think, so wrong again...
Nobody wanting a hint?
[T]Vestax
August 29 2005 6:30 AM EDT
Is it strictly CB related?
AdminShade
August 29 2005 6:38 AM EDT
reminder: - hints can be bought (for 5k/p) and will be added to the pot.
but yes it is cb related.

Weren't you creating some maps for a game in the past ?
You've finally finished and gotten them up and running ??
AdminG Beee
August 29 2005 6:39 AM EDT
Heh, so my guess is not correct then. :p
ZsecretZ
August 29 2005 6:40 AM EDT
u finally said finally..
AdminShade
August 29 2005 6:48 AM EDT
nope, those maps are in stasis but i will begin with level design later on but for a newer game :)
and no, it wasn't the first time i said finally :P
CoolWater
August 29 2005 7:10 AM EDT
the corn in black market went into auction.

nope, it isn't about the corn either.
wldflr
August 29 2005 8:22 AM EDT
Finally you'll be here for the beginning of change month!
Finally there is no more PwnageStick ... lol we're all saying that :P
AdminShade
August 29 2005 8:58 AM EDT
hmm this will be a hard one...
Voodoophone you are incorrect, my ToA is well above 200k
wldflr, i might not be online at the actual change month
chappy, that's old news.
What about .... finally another Morgul-Hammer spawned in the shop??

5 times wrong again...
I thought it wasn't that hard but apparently people can't read too good :P

AdminShade
August 29 2005 10:47 AM EDT
As people now should know is that it has something to do with Carnage Blender.
now for the bought hint which makes the pot $30k:
someone in this thread ALMOST had given the right answer.
[EG] Almuric
August 29 2005 10:52 AM EDT
You finally won 40% of your battles.

Oops, missed this in the instructions: - 1 guess per player per hour.
/me goes to sit in the corner for an hour...

Aha! You're finally back up to the score you had before you went on holidays!
Finally broke 700k Score?!
There is no change month, LOL!
Umm I'll try again ... your NW is FINALLY above $75mil ??
Total net worth: $75,561,134
[EG] Almuric
August 29 2005 12:16 PM EDT
You finally got more than 1000 clan points in a day?
AdminShade
August 29 2005 12:19 PM EDT
oh my gosh...
pot: $35k
people are so close, but should look better again.
the 75 mil NW isn't my NW but that of the clan, and was reached after creation of the contest.
it has nothing to do with the score of my character.
it has nothing to do with change month.
it has nothing to do with battles fought or won.
people may now guess every half hour :)
Maelstrom
August 29 2005 12:29 PM EDT
Your STR is finally over 300k?
QBJohnnywas
August 29 2005 12:31 PM EDT
I haven't read the FAQ's for a while so it's probably been there a while but the admins are now listed including 'SHADE'
{CB1}Bio
August 29 2005 12:38 PM EDT
ac is 110?
AdminShade
August 29 2005 12:51 PM EDT
My ST had gone down so that can't be it,
I have been a sub admin since day 2 of Carnage Blender 2,
and my AC is indeed 110 but has also gone down, that isn't it either.
[EG] Almuric
August 29 2005 12:58 PM EDT
Over 60K for MPB?
{CB1}Bio
August 29 2005 12:58 PM EDT
your realm changed?
AdminShade
August 29 2005 1:02 PM EDT
my mpb had been guessed already and was wrong.
realm change had been guessed and was also wrong.
u challenged over 100k battles total
AdminShade

oh my gosh...
it has nothing to do with battles fought or won.

alright another hint:
Pot: $40k
look closely at my character, and with that i mean really close!
QBJohnnywas
August 29 2005 1:38 PM EDT
You got a new character picture - one you've been searching for all along
[EG] Almuric
August 29 2005 2:04 PM EDT
You finally got some items named?
You've won more battles than you've challenged?
You got your ExBow forged up to 4x45 +50 finally...
AdminShade
August 29 2005 2:30 PM EDT
nope, it's not the character picture, you can see that it has been there since forever...
It's not the names of the items, they have been named for quite some time now...
it STILL doesn't have ANYTHING to do with any battles...
It has nothing to do with the upgrade of my exbow.
You finally gave up and got a VB?
you finally have a top 50 ToA
Your VB is finally in the top 5??
Relic
August 29 2005 3:01 PM EDT
You finally got rid of that "itch"? :P
The listing of your character name no longer glitches with that funny 'u' you have?
Dont know if its been guessed already....but....
Iluvtar used to be Illuvtar
funny 'u', funny 'l', what's the difference? lol ;o)
AdminShade
August 29 2005 4:21 PM EDT
already had the VB so that can't be it.
top 50 ToA? hmmm nope
it isn't the Vorpal Blade, neither the top 5 or the x60
and that itch has nothing to do with my character
and my character's name is still Ilúvatar
AdminShade
August 29 2005 4:33 PM EDT
and yes I am sure that the name of my character hasn't changed since I created it.
*scratches head* How about this .. you FINALLY have a HoD in the top 25?
AdminShade
August 29 2005 4:35 PM EDT
nope it isn't the hod in top 50.
{CB1}Bio
August 29 2005 4:35 PM EDT
Inspect Ilúvatar thats what it says at the top beside carnage blender...it doesnt match your name
AdminShade
August 29 2005 4:37 PM EDT
that's because carnage blender doesn't handle the character ú so well... instead it handles ú better
[EG] Almuric
August 29 2005 5:20 PM EDT
Finally your CB2 character is at a higher Score or PR than your CB1 character?
CoolWater
August 29 2005 5:49 PM EDT
you created a heavy tank
You got a pair of Elven Gloves!
Relic
August 29 2005 6:03 PM EDT
You are not the lowest Score in your clan?

August 29 2005 6:05 PM EDT
You no longer have the biggest exbow?
you decided to become a girl? that way you can curtsie isntead of bow?

That's what I said, Reyna - s/he's now Shadie!

FINALLY the 100th post :P
{CB1}Bio
August 29 2005 6:52 PM EDT
your character is not in the top 25 2 minion characters
{CB1}Bio
August 29 2005 6:58 PM EDT
is now in the top 25**
AdminShade
August 30 2005 4:08 AM EDT
It has nothing to do with the PR or score of my character.
It has nothing to do with my tank being heavy or not.
It has nothing to do with the Elven Gloves I bought after creating this contest.
It has nothing to do with the clan.
As I already said, it has nothing to do with my exbow.
Becoming a girl isn't part of CB, so has nothing to do with it (I'm still a young man)
I didn't change my minion names.
100th post can't be it since something finally happened BEFORE i made the contest.
It has nothing to do with the ranking of my character, again.

CoolWater
August 30 2005 5:14 AM EDT
You finally have 3 items named from LOTR items.
Your ToA finally reached 300K?

This contest isn't over yet.
Those names have been there for quite some time.
My ToA isnt 300k YET!!!

AdminShade
August 30 2005 10:19 AM EDT
alas still all wrong...
Time to give a free hint.
2 people have been very close, in terms of speaking of the right thing, but have been wrong, in speaking of the wrong 'finally'.
reminder: you may ask for a hint, and even for a specific hint.

no it isnt one of my basic stats...
and it isnt my pr either...

I say that *finally* you made it to page 1 of the high scores list.... and I'm sending 5K for the heck of it.
AdminShade
August 30 2005 3:01 PM EDT
I say again that it has nothing to do with the score of my character...
pot $55k thanks for the donation :)

What two people were close?
AdminShade
August 30 2005 3:13 PM EDT
Hellrazor wanted another hint so there it is:
Voodoophone - The Movie & logan666 were close.
I've got it! Finally your ToA started collecting XP again, because the Max. Tat. finally caught up. /me pats himself on back and awaits loads of cash.

Exactly which one of their guesses was close?
Tyr sounds about right to me.
That clue would have led me that way anyway
AdminShade
August 30 2005 4:56 PM EDT
Tyr: alas your guess is wrong, as my max tattoo is lvl 400k +
as for the hint, this will make it too easy...
both of them made a guess at my ToA, but both were wrong about something...
QBRanger
August 30 2005 5:03 PM EDT
Your TOA level is finally above your MPR level?
AdminShade
August 30 2005 5:03 PM EDT
wrong again, less close than those 2 were...
CoolWater
August 30 2005 5:05 PM EDT
you have apostrophes on your TOA name.
Phaete
August 30 2005 5:07 PM EDT
You finally named your ToA?
AdminShade
August 30 2005 5:07 PM EDT
alas, it isn't the apostrofes.
mchaos
August 30 2005 5:10 PM EDT
Your ToA finally levels up at even 100 level increments
AdminShade
August 30 2005 5:11 PM EDT
pot currently is $60k
mchaos and phaete are both wrong.
It isn't the name of the ToA
it isn't the 'way of leveling' of the ToA...
[EG] Almuric
August 30 2005 5:13 PM EDT
Finally your ST from the ToA is higher than the highest ST without a ToA?
Special J
August 30 2005 5:15 PM EDT
ToE -- > ToA
AdminShade
August 30 2005 5:22 PM EDT
sorry Almuric, wrong.
and mrwuss is also wrong, my ToA has been a ToA ever since well.. can't remember the date anymore.
CoolWater
August 30 2005 5:24 PM EDT
Your ST is bigger or level with your DX after the TOA effect.
AdminShade
August 30 2005 5:27 PM EDT
Coolwater: please guess half an hour later than your previous guess:
CoolWater, 5:05 PM EDT
CoolWater, 5:24 PM EDT
30 minutes still is 30 minutes :)

I already paid for a hint so here goes:
What the heck is the level of your TOA?
AdminShade
August 30 2005 5:35 PM EDT
Well:
Glaurung 'Golden Father of Dragons' level 258,870
that are the stats of my tattoo.

you win the $60k for finally answering what finally had happened.

AdminShade
August 30 2005 5:43 PM EDT
Enjoy your prize and stay tuned for the next: "finally!!!"
CoolWater
August 30 2005 5:49 PM EDT
the first hint threw me out of my guesses. Shade said look closely at the character, so I thought it was more of a visual thing. Obviously by looking closely you wouldn't be able to guess 250k cause the TOA is not written anywhere.
CoolWater
August 30 2005 5:50 PM EDT
congrats Johnnywas
QBJohnnywas
August 30 2005 5:57 PM EDT
Just glad to put an end to it lol!

I was unaware that the 250k level couldn't be seen by the public, otherwise it would have been easier indeed, my appologies, but with a hint people find out ;)
