Thread: Eriador Triathlon - Serverwide Event

Balrog Riders is hosting Dwarrowdelf's first Galloping Gala horse race.



When - Friday May 11th, 8:00 pm est
Where - Party Tree, Hobbiton
Who - Open to Anyone

Prizes:
First Place - 500 TP and An Account-Wide Perlino Steed
Second Place - 500 TP
Third Place - 500 TP
All participants will receive a coupon for 30% off the riding skill in the lotro store.

Rules:
Can use any mount (68% mounts allowed)
No Mount Speed Buff allowed.
No ports, swift travels, retreating, etc (we will have refs watching the race)

Basic Plan:
We'll be starting at the Party Tree in Hobbiton. From there, contestants will race to a few checkpoints throughout Eriador where a BR member will be waiting. Locations and coordinates will be given out at the Party Tree before the race begins. First person to make it to all the checkpoints and then to the finish line will win the race. This is a test of skill and navigation. Obviously the majority of the group will be at the same speed, but it is a test to see who can find the fastest path to the different locations.


See you all then!

*Bump* - added location and basic summary of the race

BUMP! :P
But seriously, we intend to put forth a decent amount of effort to get this thing going and we hope people are interested enough to come out and give it all a shot!

Does this require a sign up or just showing up? Idk if I'll be on, but if I am, I intend for this to turn into a drinking game.

Just show up. We'll meet at the party tree and go from there.

Hmmm, this is a couple of hours before our kin raid. See you then!
