W000T! We're turning 3 years old! And of course.. this will be celebrated big time!
Our last semi-anniversary, some know it as the "Summer kick-off", was a huge success. We had TWO days filled with events. We shall continue this tradition and fill another TWO days with events! Let's get to it.
Yes, it's that time again where people get their cool shout out and/or badges on the site. We need YOU to vote on these awards!
To vote on the awards - just click the link below!
Here's a little preview of the badges and what they mean:
Now to the actual events..
You know what's coming...
Without doubt this event is known to be the most successful event after races.
Yes, I am talking about MAN HUNT!
Click on this spoiler to see what man hunt is about and how to sign up.
PRIZES will be awarded to the top 5 teams!
Welcome to MAN HUNT!!!
I'll quickly go over how man hunt goes.
Man Hunt is a game of hiding where one person ((co-)host) hides, gives out clues and other people go on the hunt to find him.
On previous Man Hunts, we tried to keep all the locations quest-free. By doing that we limit ourselves each time, therefor, you should be aware that quest areas could be used this time around. If you choose to bring your hardcore iron account to this hunt, we are not responsible for its status.
It goes as followed:
1. Form teams
Teams will consist of 4 people each. Pre-made teams are ALLOWED. For anyone not in a team, we will be drafting teams in World 317 race style!
You will use your captains cc and/or discord to communicate with your team members.
2. Check Site for Clues (link coming soon!)
After teams have been formed, the hosts/co-hosts will go into the hiding spot and reveal clues here on the Forums.
3. Find the Hidden Man
Find the Hidden man with help of the clue(s) you're given. You have about 10 minutes to find the hidden man.
4. Wait until more people arrive
We are working with a point system: first place receives more points than second, second more than third etc..
5. Back to Step #2
Repeat the process after teams have found the Hidden Man.
After 8 locations have been found everyone will come together in BA lobby. The hosts/co-hosts will announce the winning teams. They will receive a prize and badge on the Forums!
Now that we've covered what man hunt is, let the sign up begin!
Teams will be capped at 4 players to make it fair for each team.
This means you can sign up with up to 3 others if you'd like to be in a team with those people, make sure they're also wanting to be on your team beforehand!
Say you only got one friend willing to partner up with you, no worries! You can fill your team right before the events starts when others are drafting teams.
Captains of the teams should be able to be on discord during Man Hunt in order to get updates on when new clues or locations are being posted (not voice). They will be responsible for updating the team on clues on the site.
BEFORE you sign up:
Make sure your team or at least 3 out of the 4 people can make it until the end. Man Hunt lasts about two hours! (Saturday, December 7th, 19 (7 PM) UTC)
Please use this format when signing up (either on a post here or DM one of the hosts on discord):

After MAN HUNT - We'll be heading back to wave 1 for a fun gimmick race, ACHILLES VS. TORTOISE! More info about this can be found in this spoiler:
Another BIG race will be happening on this date. It's not just any big race, we'll be having a TOURNAMENT bracket to go with it! The bracket can be seen below.
This tournament is HYPE!
And of course, there will be PRIZES for the top 3 teams.
After the Tournament Race - We'll be announcing the awards that you all hopefully voted on, and maybe have some promotions waiting for you?! Who knows! This will be done at the Falador Party Room.
Tournament race, awards.. What's next?
We'll be holding a DROP PARTY - the location will be revealed after we end the stream, as the awards will be on stream.
You can DONATE to this drop party! Contact any general in game or on discord and you will be added to the list. Anonymous donations are also possible!
After the drop party - We'll host some classy SUNDAY RACES.
Obviously people have to go back to studying or work. But that's Casual Ba's actual "birthday"!
We won't do anything special but we encourage you to bring out the balloons (to all days actually)!
Thanks for reading ladies and gentlemen.
See you there! Or else..

After MAN HUNT - We'll be heading back to wave 1 for a fun gimmick race, ACHILLES VS. TORTOISE! More info about this can be found in this spoiler:
(Achilles vs. the Tortoise is a famous paradox of Zeno of Elea. In the paradox Achilles challenges a Tortoise to a footrace of 100m. Achilles graciously offers the Tortoise a head start of 50m before starting the race himself. In the paradox, however, as soon as Achilles catches up to the Tortoise’s 50m head start, the Tortoise has moved on to a new spot farther ahead. Achilles now closes this smaller gap between him and the Tortoise, but as soon he closes this gap, the Tortoise has moved ahead again. Thus in the paradox, Achilles is never able to catch up to the Tortoise, since the Tortoise will always have moved an ever-reducing distance ahead from where it was before, despite what our commonsense of reality says in opposition.)
In this Achilles vs. the Tortoise race mode, we will pick teams as we normally do for Sunday Races. Once teams have been chosen and roles assigned, one team will be randomly selected by the host to be the Tortoise team. The Tortoise’s team’s healer must walk throughout all of Waves 1-10 - the Tortoise’s team’s healer must have their sprint turned-off. The Tortoise team cannot duo heal. Much like the paradox, the Tortoise team will be given a 5 Wave head start. When the Tortoise team begins Wave 6, that is the cue for the other teams (Achilles teams) to start in Wave 1. Normal race rules apply to the Achilles teams - Achilles teams’ healers may sprint. The object of the all teams is to finish Waves 1-10 first. The team that finishes first will receive a small prize.
