Hello everyone,

I know you are impatient for everythin to "go back to normal". However, GoldenEyes has opened a thread about a week ago asking people to post their experience with contest certificates to help us figure out the glitch within the script. See here:

http://www.forum.kapilands.com/viewtopic.php?t=10601

Unfortunately the only posts we received so far have been from people who only commented on the one contest in World 2 and who haven't received a prize so far. That doesn't really help us a lot to find the problem, I am afraid. What we need to have is information from players who have been taking part at more than one contest, let us know when they received the prizes and when they didn't, if they've been inactive in between, etc. We need this in order to find a sort of pattern behind this whole kerfuffle. It would be an option to send out the prizes manually, but it wouldn't really help us to fix the problem at its source. So, please, if you have anything useful to add to the thread - do it and help us solve the problem.

Thank you and best regards,

pearlbay

34/104.Mar.2008Kapilands Apple Bash Realm 2

Are you unhappy with recent events? Mad about our recent problems in tracking down bugs? Then this is your once in a lifetime opportunity to shove it all in our faces. The Kapilands team is going to launch its first ever monstrous gigantic Blitz apple bash. Produce those apples, take them, and then just smash them in our faces. We want you to positively pelt us with apples until we are just faint outlines in a mountain of apple sauce. Get all that aggression out - and help us track down the contest bug.
To find that mysterious black hole that seems to have swallowed so many contest certificates recently, we have decided to launch this very special once in a lifetime Blitz contest.

This contest will run for two days only. In order to help us achieve our goal in tracking down this elusive bug, we need massive participation.

So send us those:

Apples, quality 0, price 1 Caps from today, March 4th until Thursday, March 6th (Realm 2 only!).

And not just by the bushel, but by the wagon load, so that hopefully, by the end of the week we won`t just have the world`s biggest pool of apple sauce in our office, but also fixed the contest bug.

Don`t let us down - but shower us with apples instead!

Your Kapi team

Rules, regulations and prizes are the same as in every other contest:
Send the contest product in the right quality to the company contest, as if you were sending a contract to another player. Send as many contracts as you like, in order to achieve a higher ranking.

After sending a contract, your ranking will be shown in the stats/contest. The stats also show when the contest will end (date and exact time); Additionally there is a countdown, that shows you how many hours are left until the contest ends.

The prizes for the contest are as follows:

1. rank --> Gold medal
2. rank --> Silver medal
3. rank --> Bronze medal
4. rank --> 5 contest certificates
5. rank --> 4 contest certificates
6. - 10. rank --> 3 contest certificates
11. - 20. rank --> 2 contest certificates
21. - 100. rank --> 1 contest certificate

The score is as follows:

Gold medal --> 300 points
Silver medal --> 200 points
Bronze medal --> 100 points
contest certificate --> 10 points


You will receive your contest-prize via a normal contract (which you can accept or even reject), so make sure to check your contracts carefully.

Pay special attention to part written in red. If nothing else it is rather confusing, thats why i made my post in the first place.
