Finnigan's OOC

As part of the Victis Honor day celebrations, there's going to be a genuine seer (not Trelawney) at the Hogsmeade Fete. Any character who wants to (and who responded to the Future Friday post) can gross her palm with silver and will receive a prediction by owl post after the weekend.

The fact that it's a true seer does not mean all prediction will definitely come true, and predictions will probably be cryptic enough to cover several scenarios in any case. Nonetheless - should give characters something to talk about, should they be interested.

Please sign up characters below!

Congratulations Aidan and Gwenog!

You were the first to reach our Irishman who was hiding at the Reptile House, London Zoo. You win 20 galleons (10 each, assuming you split it 50/50) and tickets to return to London Zoo at your leisure.

Please post here with your (or your team's) guesses! I'll be selecting a winner at (roughly) 5pm GMT tomorrow, so try to have your guesses in by then. Comments are screened, for obvious reasons. Each character can guess once, even if they don't yet have a team - hopefully the last few teams should be worked out in play tomorrow. If not, well, that's what NPCs and mod-played characters are for. I'll use a random number generator to pick the winner.

Any questions, let me know. Otherwise, guess away!

Alright, no point waiting. Please comment here with the names of any characters who would like to sign-up for Finnigan's St Patrick's Day event. Please try to sign up before Monday 9th March. Anyone who signs up after this date may not receive a clue. (Although I will do my best.)

Inspired by Mercy (she’s my ideas girl, what would I do without her?!) Finnigan’s will be hosting a St Patrick’s day race / competition / hunt. It’s going to work a little differently IC / OOC so I’ve explained both below. Please let me know if anything is unclear, if you have any questions or concerns so that I can sort them out before I start putting everything together. Thanks!

IC
1. Characters who wish to be involved must pay one galleon at any time before Midnight on March 16th.
2. On the morning of March 17th (St Patrick’s Day) all characters will receive a leprechaun-gold-galleon inscribed with a clue to a location. Each clue will be different and (hopefully) no single clue will be enough to provide the exact location.
3. During St Patrick’s day characters can collaborate in teams of between 2 and 4 people – giving them access to 2, 3 or 4 clues. Each team must include representatives from at least two Hogwarts houses (or non-Hogwarts schools). *
4. The first team to find Seamus Finnigan hiding at the given location wins a prize! (TBD)
5. Losing teams do not win a prize, obviously, and do not get their galleons back – proceeds go to charity.

*If it happens that there are two same-house characters left over with no more interested characters, I’ll allow a different-house NPC, though in that case you will not get an additional clue.

OOC
1. I’ll put up a separate post later today for you to sign up any interested characters.
2. On Monday 9th March I will e-mail out a clue to each character who signed up.
3. During the week o Monday 9th – Monday 16th you can either a) form teams / discuss clues OOC b) pre-play the events of Tuesday 17th and form teams / discuss clues IC.
4. On Monday 16th I’ll put up a post for teams to guess the location. A winner will be chosen randomly from all correct answers and that team will come first!
5. On St Patrick’s day itself, teams who didn’t pre-play can begin threads and I’m also open to threads of people finding Seamus – whether they’re first or not.

I hope that’s all clear! Let me know if not, or if you foresee any problems. I literally thought of this this morning so it’s entirely possible I’ve missed something glaringly obvious.
