Hi everyone!
For the sixth time, Pirate-Community is going to organise a posts in a day record. We have had a lot of newcomers lately, so here is a short description for those of you who joined us in the meantime:
The stakes are high, as our goal is to break the outstanding record of 15600 messages! Of course, participants will get loads of bonus Tings: each post is worth 15 Tings within the given time span, and then come the bonus Tings: 1500 for participating (i.e. posting at least one message), 1500 for beating one's own posts in a day record (you can ask me to calculate it for you), and 3000 Tings for the winner. For example, someone once ended up with the staggering amount of 42420 Tings that day.Hunchman801 wrote:Each year since 2006, we organise a posts in a day record at PC. The whole thing is quite simple: it consists in posting the most possible messages in a predetermined time span of 24 hours. The goal is not only to break a new record every year or bring more activity to the forums, but also to shuffle our topics in order to bring new discussions for the following year.
This is not a spam contest, and useless messages are obviously not welcome. However, the special conditions during the record day will be the cause of a certain leniency, especially as concerns old topics, which can be bumped freely.
As for the date, I suggest Saturday July 30th from 0.00 AM to 12.00 PM (GMT+1), which will have to be adjusted depending on your time zone (feel free to post your time zone here if you aren't sure). For instance, it would be from July 29th at 11.00 PM to July 30th at 11.00 PM in the UK.
So, is that all right for everyone?
Sounds fine for me by the way!
