We’re all sitting around playing BFBC2 after a brief stint iat trying to play WAR again waiting for the next good mmo to come out. Star Wars: The old Republic – Please live up to yourself.
Also I’m using this post to show a friend how easy it is to rank for someones name in the search engines. This guy here Mike Bucks
How this works: Each team has a “Flag” (an IMAGE member wearing a cuprum plate helm – Tindremic and Draconian – These are bright yellow) – Each team starts at their flag location – Each team will be told the location of the other team at the time of starting the match.
To capture the flag a player on the other team has to kill the Flag – Loot the helm and put it on – Then return to their “Flag”
Each flag is located at a Wilderness priest.
In the case that the IMAGE member no longer has the “Flag” and both flags are returned to him at the same time – The IMAGE member has to stand there with both flags for twice the time he didn’t have a flag before the winner is declared
When a Flag is picked up it must immediately be put on by the person who looted it – Making it clear who has the flag – IMAGE Judges will be standing by to make sure this rule is followed.
We’d like to hold this first event on Friday – And need 2 Teams to sign up. Times and Locations will be privately given to the first 2 teams to sign up.
Our initial thoughts on this are for entrance fee to be 50g Per team – Winner take all – If more is willing to be wagered by both sides we will arrange that privately.
Teams can be made of however many members you want so bring the noise.
Side bets on what team will win will also be taken – When 2 teams sign up we will post who they are and betting will then be open.
To sign up post your intent in the comment section here – with your IRC name and you will be contacted VIA IRC.
After 5 days of having this event announced – and dozens of people saying they would be there and what a great idea it was – The First IMAGE Manhunt ended up underwhelming – but it was really fun for all involved.
Within the last hour people started complaining that 5g was too expensive to join – and they didn’t want to risk it. Even though every IMAGE member has 100+ gold in their banks – it seems nearly everyone else who plays MO are retar… umm… Less than stellar gamers who don’t know how to earn money.
We were forced to drop the entry fee to 1g per player and in the end we had 14 players sign up – and get in our private vent server set up specifically for this event. Oddly enough none of the major guilds had the chutzpah to enter – unfortunate for them – good for our solo entries.
The event started when everyone in vent were given a series of clues, each one more diabolical than the next, as to where the one being hunted would be located.
“Seek thee out the Black Knight outside the highest tower ”
“The mountain laughs at you”
“The hills have eyes”
“THERE IS A GOD DAMN TOWER ON TOP OF THE CLIFF WITH FACES ON IT YOU SCRUBS”
I can’t be sure, but the last clue might have been a little too sneaky and cryptic. Never the less 4 of the 14 were able to find Vexx and take him out. It was all out madness as a 5 man FFA took place – In the end only 2 lived – one being able to loot the item off Vexx the Hunted and escape on his wisely placed horse.
Congrats to you the Guildless Braxx – Winner of the First IMAGE manhunt – Your noble *cough cowardly escape cough* fighting earned you 14gold for an hour of your time 
Thanks to all the people involved hope you all had as much fun as we did – The below video is of the moments before and after the battle – in the start you see Vexx turning gray, as promised no murder counts for killing The Hunted were awarded – Filmed by LanMandragon.
The first IMAGE FaburnRUN was a mild success – A total of 24 runners (Only 7 of them IMAGE members) left Vadda 30 mins late – but they all took off at the same time.
Early reports of large groups of PK’s waiting on Wisent hill came out to be true and hilarious. Just before the race we told the contestants to run in a large west arch, and hug the mountain, towards Maduli before heading to Fabernum would likely be the best bet – The winners of our contest heeded this advice, I’m fairly sure the ones who went Towards the Colored forest were slaughtered, their names will be… Wait, who was that?
Many of the runners had no protection and ran in Rags – however there were a few brave souls who went in armor – We don’t know what happened – Hopefully someone frapsed it.
Now for the moment you have all been waiting for!
THE WINNERS
Nika 1st Place – 14mins 37 Seconds – Winner Paid: 6gold
Hellonies – 2nd Place – 14mins 39 Seconds – Winner Paid: 4 Gold
Jonkir – 3rd Place – 14mins 44 Seconds. – Winner Paid 2: Gold.
IMAGE members… What the hell happened?!!!!? We didn’t win our own race? Hang your heads in shame.
If the FaburnRUN isn’t your thing – Our next event is this SATURDAY!
http://www.mortalonline.com/forums/46874-manhunt-ingame-event-run-image-saturday-6-east.html (thread on the MO forums to register!)

The event will go as such,
The event will start in Vadda. The Entrance fee will be 5 gold. There must be a minimum of 10 players.
Once you have paid your entrance fee you will be given access to a private Ventrilo server will you will be feed instructions on the whereabouts of the player in question.
The player in question will have 1 unique Item on him, a sword With a specific durability and make that I know, that must be returned to ME Lan in Vadda at the banker.
There are no rules. You can pk, use horses, bring your whole guild.
However your whole guild must enter if you join this. We will have spotters out tracking you as you hunt down our member. Anyone having guild assistance will be eliminated.
Guilds must register with me before hand and be in the same channel in vent.
I will globally announce all messages to all channels at the same time so no guild will have an advantage.
The house will take a small 20% of the fees entered to run the event.

What is the IMAGE FaburnRUN?
The IMAGE Faburnrun is a footrace from the front gates of Vadda to the Front door of Faburnum. All contestants will gather in Vadda and wait for the Starting /YELL at 9pm EST (GMT -4)
The winners are determined by the first 3 runners who make it to Faburnum and say “IMAGE” within local range of the very inside of the front door – A screen shot will be taken – These names will then be checked against everyone who checked in at Vadda before the race by saying IMAGE – when check in is called for just before the starting /YELL. Time will be recorded for the top 3 using an iPhone stopwatch app – and posted with the winners names.
Are there any Rules?
Horses are not allowed for contestants (we know the average time on foot, and if you are well above that you will be disqualified – in the case of a disqualification you will not be refunded and you and your guild will be barred from future IMAGE events.
(Coming soon: Look for IMAGE Fight Night, nightly gambling events outside Faburnum)
PKing is allowed (as it really can’t be stopped) during the race so bring your guild to take out the competition and/or offer protection – Run at your own risk.
Is there an entrance fee?

Will be the crappiest weapons we use in Mortal after today don’t it feel good?
The servers still pretty crashy, and some pretty annoying loot/inventory/bank bugs kept day two progress to a minimum. The biggest news of the day was the absurd increase in skill book prices – so everyone who didn’t buy on day 1 is SOL.
But it seems to be all coming together for IMAGE. Crafters have been leveling, skills have been going up all around, and a new lush farm spot has been discovered and moved in on. Gold is no longer an issue.
Depending on server stability on day 3 IMAGE is poised to be ahead of everyone in armor/weapons/houses – Most of day 2 was spent gathering rocks – and lots of them. With depleatable nodes still not in now is the time to take advantage and stockpile.
With over 500k stone tomorrow looks pretty sweet for our refiners and weapons and armor crafters.
Mortal Online opened the doors to the world of Nave at approximately 9am MST, June 9th 2010.
The servers were stable throughout the morning until the population on the server increased and we experienced hourly server crashes. Thankfully the servers were only down for about fifteen minutes at a time – just enough time to get up, stretch the legs, and refill the goblets. Overall, release day for IMAGE turned out to be a success, with many members coming out of the woodwork to bolster the ranks – alongside some new recruits – to complete the majority of our release day goals.
So if you have not already done so, get in vent, patch up, and come enjoy the world of Nave with us.

With Mortal launching OMG TOMORROW!!! New recruits are hitting our board as expected. We got 3 last night, 2 were given access 1 was turned away.
It’s hard to become a part of IMAGE – you have to not suck at life and not be a cheater… I know, I know – This is a fairly high standard. We are all gamers after all.
When it comes down to becoming a part of IMAGE it is not about how leet your skillz are. It is not about how much money you can donate to the clan to keep vent going or to keep this awesome main page updated (seriously, how awesome is this clan site?). Being a part of IMAGE is about fitting in with the group.
One of the best parts is being able to hop on vent and be talking with a group of real friends. If we all lived in the same area we could all hang out and get a beer – and it would be fun. IMAGE is first and foremost a community of friends.
There is no real drama here (but you have to be able to dish out and take a joke and likewise criticism). There are no real ranks (other than forum/vent privileges). While we like to think we are fairly competent gamers – even if you suck at games, as long as you fit in with the group, you can be a part of IMAGE. We will help you get better (of course if you are hopeless and show no improvement or potential, people will end up not liking you and you won’t fit in).
Get in vent, say hi, and join the conversation – If you don’t talk no one will know you and you will end up not enjoying your time with us.
Thanks,
-Asmo
