City Riddle Contest Details

Hi folks!

The City Riddles contest will be starting on Monday 17th at 00:30 and I wanted to share the details / rules before the chaos of the Great Hunt kicks off. I've also copied this info into a new HELP RIDDLE CONTEST file.

- Once the contest opens each city will have 48 hours to solve a total of ten riddles.
- To begin receiving clues and solving riddles, go to your city's pylon and ask the NPC there for their tablet.

* Bloodloch: Mogrov
* Duiran: Beymak
* Enorian: Braytal
* Spinesreach: Fridhild

- With the tablet in hand, PUSH it to receive the first clue, which will lead you to a specific location.
- When you think you've found the right room, TOUCH the tablet to verify.
- If the answer is correct, the tablet will vibrate and advance to the next clue.
- If it's the wrong answer, you'll be informed of that and unbalanced for a very short while.
- The tablet will persist for an hour before returning to the city NPC.
* This means one person can't hoard the tablet forever.
NOTE: Only one tablet exists per city, you'll need to coordinate and communicate if you want to work together.

Some notes:

- Time starts from when the contest opens.
- The city who finishes first will be the winner.
- This is intended to be a 4 way competition - sharing answers between orgs isn't allowed. We'll be watching for this, so don't do it. In that vein:
* The order of clues is not the same for every city.
* Most of the clues are shared between everyone, but not all of them. Some are unique to the city solving them.

Good luck!
