Hi there, Pirates!

Prospector Zeke here with a special item hunting contest for our players! On 7 March, 2015 from 12:01am to 11:59pm US Central we’ll be havin’ a special event here in Pirate101 that we’re callin’ a House Warming party! We want you to be on the lookout for some special items that are sure to keep your house nice and warm, but here’s the catch . . . we’re not going to tell you what those items are until the day of the contest, and it’ll even switch from time to time! You’ll have to be watching our Twitter account very “close-like” because at the beginning of the contest and throughout the day, we’ll announce which item to hunt for next!

Be watching our Twitter at the following times to find your next target:
12:01 am to 4:30 am – Mystery Item 1
4:30 am to 9:00 am – Mystery Item 2
9:00 am to 1:30 pm – Mystery Item 3
1:30 pm to 6:00 pm – Mystery Item 4
6:00 pm to 11:59 pm – Mystery Item 5

The person who collects the most of the five Mystery “House Warming” Items overall will be declared our winner and given 60,000 Crowns. Winners of each individual mystery item collections will be winning 20,000 Crowns each!

  1. Only house warming items that are successfully acquired by players during the correct time frames as loot drops from 12:01 am 7 March 2015 to 11:59pm US Central on 7 March 2015 will count toward the total. Bazaar purchased items will not count toward the total.
  2. You may sell your items or place them in your house after you acquire them to make room for more house warming items.
  3. House warming items are counted per character, not per account.
  4. Winners will be awarded on 9 March.
  5. Leaderboards will be published on the KI Blog on 9 March.
  6. Tie-breakers will be determined by either who collected the item first or (for individual categories) who collected the most of all five mystery items in total.
  7. Each character may only win in one category.
  8. Please contact community@pirate101.com if you have additional questions.

Sounds like we'll need to set the alarm and get up early!

What a fun idea!

Thanks, Bonnie Anne -- while it was really tough to get the items on the list, I actually had a lot of fun farming places I don't normally revisit.

My suggestions for next time would include:

1) more notice ahead of time, so that people can make plans and round up farming teammates
2) have it last all weekend long, with either longer times for each item or repeat the items the second day
3) have items from every world, including Skull Island, so that every level of Pirate can have a chance at one of the items to find, not just maxed players.

Once again, my thanks for the fun event!
