\"minoc_mines\"<\/a>In my talks with the newly elected Governor of Minoc, Miss Ariana Erikkson, we’ve been detailing what we could do to raise funds for the city.\u00a0 She feels since the town is predominantly a miner’s town, that we should focus on promoting that fact. I agree.<\/p>\n

So she’s come up with the idea of holding a Miner’s Competition.\u00a0 I have to admit I was intrigued. <\/p>\n

Held on Friday October 11th, 2013 at 7:00 PM by the Eastern Skies!<\/p>\n

It would be open to grandmaster miners for an entrance fee of 50,000 gold that is donated to the city.\u00a0 Miners would be given (or they could provide) a packhorse and allowed\u00a05 shovels. They would have to be completely empty of all other items including armor, jewelry, etc. — a simple robe would be provided.\u00a0 A search would be done to ensure this. They have until all\u00a0their shovels are used up. No special magical items (Miner’s Gloves, Gargoyle’s Pickaxe, and\/or Prospector’s Tool)\u00a0are allowed. The miner with the most ingots would be crowned the winner, with bonus given for special ingots as follows.<\/p>\n

1 iron ingot = 1 point
\n1 dull copper ingot = 2 points
\n1\u00a0shadow ingot = 3 points
\n1 copper ingot = 4 points
\n1 bronze ingot = 5 points
\n1 golden ingot = 6 points
\n1 agapite ingot = 7 points
\n1 verite ingot = 8 points
\n1 valorite ingot = 9 points<\/p>\n

Miners would get to keep their ingots, or they can donate them to the city for reputation with Minoc.\u00a0Prizes would be as follows:<\/p>\n

Gold Medal Winner\u00a0— 1,000,000 gold donated by The Romanus Family — Special Title Given to the Winner:\u00a0Gold Medal Winner\u00a0of Minoc
\nSilver Medal Winner\u00a0— 500,000 gold donated by the Trade and Commerce Commission — Special Title Given to 1st Runner Up: Silver\u00a0Medal Winner of Minoc
\nBronze Medal Winner\u00a0— 100,000 gold donated by the Royal Britannian Guards — Special Title Given to the 2nd Runner Up: Bronze Medal Winner of Minoc<\/p>\n

A commencement ceremony and speeches by the Govenor of Minoc, Miss Ariana Erikkson and by representatives of the three patrons that have donated to the contest: myself on behalf of our family,\u00a0 Mr. Jonas Calahan, President of the Trade and Commerce Commission of Sosaria, and Capt. Kalmar Erikkson of the Royal Britannian Guards. Citizens of Minoc are encouraged\u00a0to donate to the city and to enjoy the\u00a0Winner’s Banquet\u00a0—\u00a0dancing, free ale, free food —\u00a0 held after the event in the Barnacle Tavern of Minoc.\u00a0 Come cheer on your favorite miner!<\/p>\n

The schedule of events would be as follows:<\/p>\n

7:00 PM to 7:30 PM EST — Commencement Ceremonies, Speeches.
\n7:30 PM to 8:00 PM EST — Preparations for the Competition
\n8:00 PM to 8:30 PM EST — Miner’s Competition, Finals

\n8:45 PM to 9:00 PM EST — Awards and Medal Ceremony
\n9:00 PM to Sun Up EST — The Winner’s Banquet Party<\/p>\n

We hope that folks come from far and wide for this fun, promotional event that will help the town of Minoc engage in trade agreements and re-establish\u00a0its RBG chapter for Minoc to improve the overall security of the town.<\/p>\n
