First of its kind contest!

Recommended Posts

Hello Folks! 

My friends and I are hosting a first of its kind contest. We will be posting an AE arc ID number on Facebook  (City of Heroes group) as well as in game (global chat). I will also try to post it on this site. 

The objective is to find as many music and movie references as possible. In case of a tie, you have to guess a number between 1 and 250.000. 

First place: 1 billion influence and 1 enhancement set of choice. 

Second place: 350 million influence and 1 enhancement set of choice.

Third place: 150 million influence.

The contest starts this Saturday at 9 a.m. EST and ends on Sunday 9 a.m. EST.

Game name characters do not count (e.g. Gunlinger, Assault Trooper, etc.).

Spelling and punctuation are important. It has to be an exact phrase, name or title. There are fake references in there. You may see more than one named character in there (e.g. John Wick), but that only counts as one reference. 

The result can be sent to the creator of the arc ingame via tell (he will be the one posting the arc ID in the global chat in game and on Facebook).

This is all about fun and giggles. We hope you will enjoy the AE mission arc and we wish you good luck.

Global chat is cross server as well?

 

Edit: checked the wiki and it is cross server. Learned something new 👍

Mission one is awesome, feels like an accomplishment in and of itself.  Taking a break after that one.

The second mission has to be run at level 50. I was attempting this on a lvl 27 SJ/WP scrapper. Could not get past the Magic EB even on easiest mode. Had to abandon, unfortunately. I even went so far as picking up a tray full of huge inspiration in the AH and retrying. Disappointing to get that far.

Good morning, everyone. The contest was closed yesterday at 9 a.m. EST. The winners will be contacted directly by Vaporize himself today. They have been picked from the ones who sent a direct in game tell to @Vaporize in the time frame that was given (Saturday 9am EST-Sunday 9am EST). 
I hope those of you who tried out the arc had fun and sent your estimates via tell in time! Stay safe and healthy everyone!
