Saturday July 8th : 10 pm BST / 5 pm EST 

The king has spoken! There shall be a race! A race by sea!

Seafaring adventurers! Fishermen! Eager swimmers! Riders of the Walrus! Oil your flippers!

The race will work as follows:

You will be summoned to a starting location, where you will be given a book, containing a riddle. This riddle, when solved, will give you a clue to the first location on your route, and a password.

When you arrive at your first location, you will tell the password to the guide who awaits you, and he or she will tell you your next location, and the next password.

As you go, write the passwords in your book.

The first person to arrive at the final location with all passwords in their book will have their name recorded in the Reward Hall for all to see!

What you need to know:

• Gates will be made available at the usual places.
• You NEED some form of sea-faring vessel. You are welcome to try to do this without a boat/ship, but you will not know which location is the last until you get there. If you arrive at that location via land or by gate, you will be disqualified. There might even be lookouts at some of the other locations. So please, use a boat or a ship.
• You need to record the passwords as you go. If any are missing when you reach the finish line, you will be disqualified.
• Obviously, this will take place outside of a guard zone.
• Blowing your opponents out of the water is a perfectly acceptable tactic. This is Siege. Why wouldn’t you sink the scurvy rats?
• The book will be checked on arrival to make sure it is original. No handing out copied books to your first mate!  This also means, if you kill your opponents and their bodies decay, they’re out of the race.
