The Energon Pub

Now I know it’s short notice but in celebration of the Alt-Rotater being up and the Mayday holiday fast approaching how about a scavenger hunt?

OFFICIAL START MISSION NUMBER 84488

Beginning: 09:00 UK BST on Tuesday 8th May 2007., that's the day after Mayday Holiday.
Anyone needing to know the UK time here's an online UK Clock http://www.worldtimeserver.com/current_time_in_GB.aspx
Ended: 13:52 UK time on Monday 14th May 2007.,

MAYDAY MAYHEM!

"Calling all Autobots and Decepticons, this is OMEGA SENTINEL. I have received word that the Autobot Ark was sabotaged on it's return to Cybertron with our missing Autobots and Decepticons. We need to locate and rescue our fellow cybertronians before they fall into unscrupulous hands."

"Decepticons, this is Shockwave on a coded channel - I'm despatching Blitzwing and a team of commandos to assist you on this mission, it would be advantageous to use this opportunity to subtly take out Prime and as many high level autobots as possible but maintain secrecy at all times. Shockwave out."

"Autobots, this is Ultra Magnus. I have a feeling Shockwave's up to something so be on your guard. The wreckers have also been despatched to intercept any untoward actions made by the decepticons. Magnus out."

1ST PLACE: Redimus
2ND PLACE: Prowl240z
3RD PLACE:Conjurous

THE RULES

One task one mission, you can’t assign two tasks to one mission.
If you’re claiming for a specific action then include the time stamp on the mission log so we can find it easily.
If you’re claiming locating or stasis locking a specific alt then give the name of the transformer with that alt as well.
Once you’ve assigned a mission to a task that’s it you can’t switch it to another task.
Due to time constraints there will be no partnering up on this hunt.
As some tasks won’t be possible for level 0 players (stasis locking TF more than 1 level higher than them) a concession is noted in the task – if you are claiming this concession please note this when you claim. This concession is ONLY available to players with no TFs over level 0 and this will be checked.

As we all know the RNG is getting more and more random in it’s old age therefore there will be a random number of between 1 to 3 “freebies” decided just before the start date and time. This will be decided by me using a six-sided Random Number Generator divided by 2 and rounded up to the nearest whole number. Again once you have claimed those freebies you can not switch them to a different task. The Dice has now been rolled - There will be ONE Freebie.

There will be a separate thread opened up for claims and you can feel free to ask any questions in this thread. When you have completed all the tasks post your last claim and then post in this thread. The hunt will finish when 1st , 2nd and 3rd place have been awarded.

There are a few other "tags" out there which are more specific to where you're from or similar but as those three tags are pretty much universal to all timezones then you can almost guarantee to bump into them regularly. There used to be a thread detailing them but I think that went with the board wipe.

Nearer the time I'll create a new thread to post your claims in so you don't need to sign up unitl you're ready to start claiming tasks as completed.

Darn, that's about a day and a half before my time off from work... I'm still going for it, though.

In the meantime, could you please edit your first post by putting in smaller images of the displayed alt-modes? It'd make it easier to view the list overall.

Ah, I don't know how! Can anyone help! Pleeese!
