From what I remember of it, it wasnt really worth playing. you could lose too much and not really get anything good enough to make up for it. Everyone I remember playing it ended up losing thier shirts.
I stayed away and used the chance to level in peace while everyone was in town at the rock.  :P

Maybe it wouldnt be as bad if you WON as good as you lost.. But i made a new char and he lost 11 times before he won. THen he was jailed for a while. Who else but ozzy would do a quest like that!

I lost all 120 rank points, 28 LCK and all the malarkey i had on me :( yesterday a friend lost his Storage.

I didn't like it because it gave out free RLs and people that got to skip through the first toughest RLs got by for free without a care in the world that they would lose their inventory.  That was probably the worst thing was the inventory rape, other than that, they were easily replacable ones.  So all in all, it wasn't fair because they got to skip through the longest part of the TRPG journey.

Gotta love SBC with their 6Mbps tier for 45$
(Yes, on their site it only shows 3Mbps, but it is actually 6Mbps, I would know :)).

There was over 10 people in jail at one time. There was over 10 people that had been put back to lvl 1. A few got their storage wiped.and the most that was won was 100K exp!!!!!! How is that fair ozzy?



I think with a little modification, it could be a cool thing for the server. You could pay 250K for the chance to win. Smallish prizes and smaller fails..But throw in a big one as well...Particle take note.

It isn't a quest.. It is a gamble..

If you people would listen when I tell you how to play it, you would win...

Its not my fault you can't listen..

I love it how people take a risk, get splooged with the negatives, then put the blame on the originators of [the risk].

ie, McDonalds lawsuits: fat children, parents sue.

I joined half way through...I hear "oooh Ozzys doing the rock QUEST. I say Ozzy are you going to do the rock quest.. Ozzy says. Not if more people doesnt take part. I say Ok im in the quest then"

Nowhere did you say Dont play or even tell me the chances of winning.

It seems like evertime Ozzy has one of these quests  someone puts up a thread to complain.  :roll:

LOL when you gonna learn to never trust ozzy? i rtemember the bot he spawned in town that would auto kill you when you talked to it.
i wouldnt really call the rock quest a "quest". the same goes for stuff like the choose the pack deal either. this is because it like gambling or giving freebies.
now, the ones where you had to hunt down the packs and actually had to go and do stuff are a different story.
i realize that it can be hard to do a quest that is fair for everyone on the server since levels and rl are so different at any one time.
the thing to do is look at the level of the majority who is on at the time and run one that is suitable for that level.
another thing would be to "advertise" an event so that peeps could make arrangments to be at the right level at the set time and meet for it.

would be cool if all the admins would share thier quests so that they could all do any single quest. hell, talk to admins from other servers and see if they will share too. that way, there is one for every occasion and it wouldnt matter which admin was on at the time.
