((OOC: In non Eorzean terms, the race will be on Saturday March 15, at 7pm EST starting at Black Brush station. If you wish to participate in the race please get there a little earlier so you can pay your entry fee and so that we can jot down your name. Chocobos are the only mount allowed in the race, others could cause panic among spectators, and we wouldn't want people to be mistaken for Ascians when you come riding a floating eye. The race will consist of three laps around a designated track. There will be three members of Equilibrium-RP at various spots around the track, the locations will be given on the day of the race. All racers must ride past these three checkpoints in order to be qualified to win the race. Top three finishers will be paid prizes, the sums based upon the number of entries, so the more people to participate the higher the prize!
While my guild will not be in charge of betting Raeras and her team of bookies will be there to facilitate for your gambling needs. Though as this is the first race, the odds will probably not be based on previous races.
This first race goes through a lowbie area as we didn't want to excluded low level characters by racing through Mor Dhona, so we've chosen a track that will hopefully have some obstacles to slow down riders and make things challenging. Depending on attendance and interest higher level tracks will be considered later.
I did notice that today there was another event occurring on Balmung of a similar nature. I guess great minds thing alike
. I hope everyone enjoys both races. Please remember to check back on this post come Friday March 14th to see the map of the race track posted on this thread. Can't give those intrepid riders too much of a headstart in practice.))
