January 21, 2009, around 6 p.m., GMT+8:00. Around 200 characters on the Tiger Server of Perfect World Philippines converged at the Great Wall to join the celebration of Chinese New Year.
All dressed in red and shades of red, the avatars welcomed the Year of the Ox with fashion and style, and of course, with bow and arrows, swords, spears and axes, and bursts of powerful spells as they strutted their stuff down the length of the Great Wall and defended the land against powerful soulless beasts.
Ehem. Yeah, that’s how the story would have been written in a bit of journalese (you know, the journalist’s lingo). But I’m very rusty now that I’m on a different career path.
Anyway, the denizens of Perfect World Philippines didn’t do that—flying over to the Great Wall, wearing their best red-colored fashion items, and rushing headlong into battle against monsters—without the light of some reward at the end of the tunnel.
Here’s the event announcement from our friends at Perfect World Philippines publisher Level Up! Games:
Greetings, Heroes of the Perfect World!
Be online, invite your friends and be present on the Great Wall inside Perfect World and received modified rates for one week!
Contest mechanics:
- Just be at the Great Wall on the date and time prescribed for your server.
- Once at the location, participants are required to wear any RED fashion.
- GMs will be patrolling the area for 20 minutes and monitor the number of participants in the area.
- Monsters will appear after the 20 minutes patrolling.
- Monsters and item drops are free for all.
- The event ends once all the monsters have been killed.
How to win:
The server with at least 199 participants will win an experience and soul points and item drop mod for a week.
Needless to say, Tiger Server won an extra week of modified experience points and item drops, as I’m sure Dragon and Serpent got it, too.
Wunnerful! Kung Hei Fat Choi!
