DNB1: If you're a newbie, and you like money... (in Contests)

FAME.
RICHES.
COMMON SENSE.
Holy stinky stinky, where do I sign up?


Did you wake up this morning wishing you too could have $30,000+ worth of CB prizes? Did you dream of eternal glory? And pennies raining down from the heavens? Lucky you, your wishes have been granted! All you have to do is win the Daily Newbie Blender!

Table of Contents. 'Cuz I can.
I. DNB Introduction.
II. Requirements.
III. Participation.
IV. List of Eternally Glorious.
V. The Daily Questions.

I. Say whaaat?
The Daily Newbie Blender is (as of now and until I run out of fame, riches, and common sense to give out) a contest Iメm hosting. Think of it as my effort to make the world a better, smarter, and more communist place to live in.

The DNB is really simple. I will ask three daily CB-related questions. All questions can and will be easily answered by either exploring the Help! Wiki or by just being sociable in chat. The first person to chatmail me with acceptable answers wins!

Earning competency could not be any simpler. What about the other rewards? Every day, I will send $30k to my character モ2 Kool 4 Skoolヤ and with it, 2 Kool will attempt to buy equipment to the best of my abilities while leaving a sizable amount of the $30k liquidated. Winner of the daily Newbie Blender will be rewarded everything on 2 Kool, and their names in italics (almost as good as being a supporter!) will be added to the List of the Eternally Glorious!

II. Can I participate in this tournament of Champions?
A. When did you start playing CB? Was it more than a week ago?
B. Is your name listed on the List of the Eternally Glorious?

If the answer to any of the above anti-requirements is yes, then you are not eligible to win the fame or riches prizes in the Daily Newbie Blender. But hey, you can still participate and further your fun and knowledge of CB!

III. Soナ how do I participate again?
1.) Read the daily questions. Answer them. Use google. Use your mom. Use the stranger in the unmarked van with the candy. I donメt care how you get the answers, although I do recommend the wiki (http://www.carnageblender.com/wiki/).
2.) What is chatmail? What does it do? How do you do it? Figure it out, and send me a chatmail with the answers you got in #1.
3.) Wait. Explore the wiki, the chatroom, or the cash register of the local gas station. Tomorrow, I will announce the winner of todayメs Daily Newbie Blender. If you were the FIRST person to chatmail me with the CORRECT answers, that winner will be you.

IV. THE LIST OF THE ETERNALLY GLORIOUS.
(Your name here)

V. The Daily Questions. Without further adoナ
1. What factors affect a characterメs PR?
2. When should a character start forging?
3. What is(are) the difference(s) between a lesser familiar and a normal familiar?


Good luck! :P

2. Only if you want to go to jail.
3. One of them smells bad.

1. Fighting opponents with Score considerably lower then your PR results in decreased fight rewards, expressed as negative Challenge Bonus.

2. Most players don't recommend forging under 100,000 Minion Power or while you have a New User Bonus (NUB).

3. A Lesser Tattoo cannot be changed into a regular Tattoo.

hope these are right!!

Double posting, but ...

looking your answers, you might want to research questions 1 and 3 a little further ...

Just a last (roughly) 8 hour notification for our international buddies. The couple of attempts so far have been kinda iffy. Most of them are passing technically, but perfectly correct wouldn't be my words of choice. No offense :P So that means, you're in luck. You still have a chance to win a lovely big opening jackpot thanks to some generous donors. It's looking something along the lines of ~70k cash, a decent pair of melee weapons, a cuddly compound bow, a tower shield, and a just about any lesser tattoo that you'd want to try out. Everything for three easy questions. :D

I am sure my answer is good (is it?). I will put a little prize for the next quiz (if there is one). I think this prize pool is big enough.
