[Finished] BIRTHDAY BASH- UPDATED 20/03/21

[Auron Delarnu]

Unistas!

So now that my hangover from celebrating the Uni's birthday has gone, it's time to close this event up.

At the bottom of this message I will post the solutions to each of the puzzles and the breadcrumb trail that lead to the treasure.

I would like to send my personal thanks out to the myriad of people behind the scenes that worked tirelessly to bring a packed and varied program of events to all.

I also want to thank each and every member of the Uni for 2 things.

1. For being a part of the Uni. After all without you, this space wouldn't exist and then there would be no need for great events to be run

2. For taking part in any of the events. It is why we do this and it adds to the "togetherness" that is integral to being part of the Uni.

If you so wish to and I certainly encourage you to, see the below link to a quick feedback form on the Birthday Bash. Tell us what you thought, what we can improve or what you liked. We are always trying to improve our events.

Sight Seeing
The 5 places that were described are:
1. Eve Gate
2. Project Discovery Phase 1 Monument
3. Katia Sae Memorial

5. Black Monolith

Visiting these 5 sites grants you the right to have the Tourist 4th class ribbon

The answers were an acrostic which spelt out
EVE UNIVERSITY

Once you had all the above, if you searched each answer,
Logistics
Tristan
The forum Ribbon
EVE UNIVERSITY

On each of these Wiki pages there was an alteration.
Logistics - added to the "offered classes on Logistics" box Y2
Tristan - Added under the picture in smaller italics was 015
The forum Ribbon - The class 4th was changed to 13
EVE UNIVERSITY - In the history section of this page after Laura Karpinski's name was added C3

Having found these letters, a quick re-arrange of them gave you the EVE date
YC123.03.15

This was the Eve version of our Birthday and when searched gave you the Birthday page!


For many this was believed to be the finish line...... It wasn't (LOL)

As it said "with a keen eye"

Cleverly hidden as just part of the text was the word treasure, This was actually a hyperlink!! taking you to a big picture of PLEX the eve Treasure.

Thanks for playing.
The Edits have now been removed but I will post the puzzles on a new page if anyone wants to try them as practice

[Danielle en Divalone]

Sounds like fun!!! I will try to be at as many as possible.

[Edwin Clough]

I highly suggest anyone with a hauler attend AMC event for positive trig standings information

[Karsin Tildari]

I highly suggest anyone with a hauler attend AMC event for positive trig standings information

What kind of hauler? Like a blockade runner? Basic industrial? Bowhead?

[Promitheas Pyroforos]

I highly suggest anyone with a hauler attend AMC event for positive trig standings information

Please supply more info about the hauler. Thanks and happy birthday.

[Quentin Coldheart]

Happy birthday!

I won't be able to attend all the events but I would like to participate in the treasure hunt. Will there be any more information about that (like during which events you can find clues or is it separate from any other events in the calendar like finding stuff in space in each campus)?

[Viscatus]

I believe Edwin is referring to hauling characters to obtain standings with Trigs/EDENCOM for safer travels through space.

Thats not an issue.
The plan for the treasure hunt is for them to be mostly passive. Such as a Crossword that will get sent out to all.
The need for speed is for the prizes. First correctly completed daily "hunt" gets that days prize.
However don't get disheartened as the main prize is a draw. To be in the draw you need to solve each days "Hunt" so that you get a part of the final cypher. Solve the final Cypher and get the treasure! Anyone who has found the treasure at the end of the event will be entered to win the grand prize hehe if people get stuck I will be able to give hints out after that day. Good luck!

[Meyanni Travers]

Q: I can only request the Freshman title on the day before the WHC day, as I am a brand new player.
Is that time enough to get the title?

I saw that a precondition for joining the WHC is having this title.

Fitting one of the Armor Assault Frigates would not be a problem, as I still have skill points left from the Alpha welcome gifts.
