Today we announce the glorious winners in the contest to
help name (and give a story behind) the 29.2 year sidereal
cycle which was first mentioned in announce 2399.
We had dozens of excellent entries, of which a few more
than four stood out! So we found ourselves obliged to give
out even MORE PRIZES than originally planned. So sorry to
those disappointed by the unexpected largesse.
The prizes were originally announced as 333 credits, 111 credits,
33 credits, and a boon. We are expanding that somewhat as
follows: 333 cr, 222 cr, 111 cr, 33cr, and four honourable
mentions each receiving 11 credits or, if they prefer, a
shot at a boon!
We should also note that we are not going to immediately
reveal the specifics of any of the winning entries. Some day,
you may think back to this day and remember, though, and you'll
guess how those entries influenced Achaea. Keep your eyes on
the stars!
The four receiving honourable mention are:
Aethele, Anoshia, Berenene, and Drayix. Congratulations!
Fourth prize goes to: Asara!
Third prize goes to: Delphinus!
Second prize goes to: Apollodorus!
And the winner is:
Tiax!
Congratulations to our prize winners. Thank you so much for
your contributions to Achaea, here and at so many other times.
You all helped, and still help, to make this the BEST BUNCH OF
ADVENTURERS any realm like ours has EVER HAD!
Penned by my hand on the 15th of Ero, in the year 441 AF.
