Big Las Vegas Roundtable Contest
The Mysterious Atlantean Tablet Enigma
A mysterious tablet has just been found in Atlantis. Curious and willing to outstrip the enemy realms in what could become a ground breaking discovery, the sages decide to call upon volunteer adventurers to start solving the tablet enigma and find the mysterious item.
All those who will be able to give Eregos the Scholar the item will be greatly rewarded. And…
To motivate characters to find the item as quickly as possible, the kings promised to erect the statue of the fastest adventurer in the capital city. But this is not all.
The contest, organized by GOA, takes place as Dark Age of Camelot celebrates its 5 year existence in the USA, during the Las Vegas Roundtable organized by EA Mythic on the 29th and 30th of September. GOA and EA Mythic will invite the most efficient adventurer and a friend to the Las Vegas Roundtable !
The fastest players on each server will also be rewarded : one MSI GeForce 7600 GT PCI Express video card for the 2nd to the 6th runners-up, and a Darkness Rising T-shirt for the next 5 places.
Check out the official website on Wednesday August 30th from 8pm when the tablet is unveiled and the contest officially begins. This animation is temporary and may end soon after the winners have solved the enigma.
If you try your luck, be aware that this enigma will appear as a normal quest but its complexity will have nothing to do with a classic one. The hard part of it will not be in facing dangers or fighting as it is not necessary to have a powerful character to succeed, but in clever thinking and spending the necessary time in finding the solution. You will be barely helped so you will need to be perceptive, cunning and patient. However, the prizes will be worth your efforts and the winner will never forget the quest.
The fastest player to find the enigma solution according to the game data will be the grand winner. If the winner cannot go to Las Vegas, he will be given a video card instead, and the trip will be awarded to the next runner-up. The first characters to solve the enigma on each realm in each server after the #1 winner will have their statue erected in the capital in addition to the other great prizes. So don't hesitate to take part in this adventure and test your deduction skills, and maybe your immortalized stone character will be admired by the inhabitants and visitors of the capital, and remain forever legendary in its realm.
Note that you need a valid passport and visa for September 28th to go to Las Vegas. Further information about the Dark Age of Camelot Round Table in Las Vegas can be found here : http://roundtable.darkageofcamelot.com/Sept_06_lasvegas.php
The complete rules of this contest will be published on Wednesday 30th.
A few essential issues must be explained immediately :

- Even though the quest is accessible on all servers, only one prize per player (same name, same address) will be awarded. There will be also only one statue per account.
- Since this reward is a roleplaying event only, GOA reserves the right not to raise a statue for winning characters whose name doesn't match the game's background.
- You must have a valid subscription before August 30th to participate. Accounts which have been penalized with grave sanctions and the 14 day free trial accounts cannot win any prize, nor have a statue raised for their character (if your account was created from the free trial offer and you subscribed afterwards, then you are considered to have a valid subscription ).
- The possibility to gain prizes or have one's statue raised in a capital city is restricted to characters created before the contest's announcement, which means yesterday.
- The contest will be over when there is one winner per each server, or on September 10th at the latest. Once all the winners are known and the verifications are done, GOA reserves the right to remove the quest from the servers at any moment.
- In order to win one of the 11 prizes you must be of legal age on September 10th. The person chosen to accompany the winner to Las Vegas must also be of legal age.
- Clustered servers count as one server since they share the same capital city.
- This animation cannot take place on the Glastonbury, Salisbury and Camlannn servers due to their specific characteristics.
- The information given above is not contractual and can be changed until the complete rules are published.

Good luck to you all !
